Chapter 226 You Should Marry Me!
After lifting the blankets, Pierre then got out of bed. “Hey, this is ridiculous. Weren’t you alright with it last night?” “Shut up! You’re not allowed to mention what happened last night! You’ve ruined me!”
“But we’ve already done it, so what else can I do, milady?” “Marry me.” “Okay!” he blurted out without thinking.
As soon as he said so, Selena stopped crying. Instead, she was gazing at him with a cheeky look on her face. “You said it yourself, so there’s no going back.”
For a few seconds, he was startled, realizing belatedly that he had been tricked by her. “How dare you deceive me!”
“Why can’t I? Anyway, I already recorded everything you said!” Holding her phone up while shaking it, she then left the ward in light and bouncing steps.
On the other hand, Pierre was observing her retreating figure while feeling both frustrated and heartbroken. It was blatantly obvious how afraid of abandonment she was, as she wouldn’t have pulled such a trick to get him to propose to her otherwise.
Despite being the president of a company as well as having a net worth of over a hundred million that attracted a lot of suitors, she had lost all of her self confidence due to how hurt she was after her first relationship. In short, she didn’t feel secure in her relationships at all.
Breakfast was ready when Selena was back, so they ate together. Looking at the bouquet of flowers, Pierre said, “The flowers have wilted, so let’s throw them away.”
Upon checking the flowers, she noticed that a few had wilted indeed. Considering how much of a perfectionist he was, he would find even such minor defects intolerable, so she replied, “Okay. I’ll throw them away later.”
Meanwhile, he observed Selena while she ate. Judging from how engrossed she was in her food, the flowers didn’t seem to affect her. “Where did you find your assistant?”
