Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 1224

Chapter 1224

Seeing that Jasmine took her time to respond to Josh, Mrs. Lowe said to Mrs. Sox, “Why isn’t Jasmine saying anything? Josh is such a good man. She won’t find another man like him. I wish I could say yes on her behalf.”

Shawn uttered, “She shouldn’t answer too quickly. She needs time to consider. It will seem like Jas is too eager if she gives an answer too soon.”

Jasmine was happy to give her hand in marriage. No longer playing it coy, she reached out to take the roses from Josh and loudly responded, “Yes, Josh. I’ll marry you.”

Josh was overjoyed.

He pulled out the engagement ring and took Jasmine’s hand to put the ring on her finger.

Jasmine pulled him up.

Josh put his arms around her, lowered his gaze to meet hers, and kissed her lips.

A thundering applause broke out.

Jasmine closed her eyes and indulged in the brief mingle of hot breaths before opening her eyes. She beamed as Josh held her.

“When did you start planning this?” she whispered while resting in his arms.

“I had been at it for a while now. I thought this idea was the best. Do you like it, Jas?”

Jasmine lifted her chin to stare at him and replied with a grin, “I wouldn’t have said yes if I didn’t like it. It doesn’t matter to me how you propose so long as your feelings for me are true, I will never reject you.”

Of course, Jasmine was more thrilled because he went through the trouble to romance her. It showed that he cared.

“No wonder you hadn’t called or texted me. You were preparing a surprise for me.”

Pecking her forehead, Josh dotingly uttered, “I wanted to give you a surprise. I didn’t let Drake tell you on the phone.”

“The punk kept telling me it was something good. He left me guessing, but I didn’t think you were going to propose to me.”

Mrs. Sox said to Josh with a smile, “Thank you, Josh. Thank you.”

Jasmine remarked, “Mom, you’re talking as if nobody wants me… Josh is not taking a charity case.”

“Your blind dates didn’t go well. Your aunt and I had been fretting over your marriage because nobody wanted you. Well, at least Josh wants you now. You should be nicer to him.”

Mrs. Sox pretended to nag her daughter.

Josh curled his lips and said, “Mom, I want to thank Jasmine for marrying me. Otherwise, I would be single for life.”

Following the proposal’s success, Josh was now calling Mrs. Sox “Mom”.

Mrs. Sox was more than pleased.

They knew what a good man Josh was. They witnessed Josh’s care for Jasmine. Now that Josh had finally popped the question, Mrs. Sox could not stop grinning from ear to ear. Her daughter had found her happily ever after.
