“I feel really sorry about this matter, so I have decided to tell you the truth.” Miya feels like this matter can not be dragged any further. She doesn’t even know the situation on Alex’s side, so she cannot delay it any longer.
“Tell me whatever it is. No matter what happens, I won’t blame you. I also know that you want to leave. If you want to go then just go.” Anson frowns helplessly as he says.
Miya looks up, revealing her small and delicate chin. Bewilderment flashes in her eyes.
Because now she must muster all her courage and say everything that’s in her heart. Only then she won’t suffer horribly like this.
“I want to ask you to do me a favor.” Miya says kneeling her petite body on the sunlit ground.
Anson is very startled. His body tenses as he clenches his hands tightly, “What are you doing? Just say it, you don’t need to kneel down.”
“No! I will only stand up if you agree.” Miya says in a very stubborn tone.
“Okay, I will promise you anything. Now get up!”
Miya’s sudden kneeling has frightened him deeply.
“You said this yourself, okay? Please, marry me, will you?” Miya takes a deep breath and utters these words as if using all the strength in her body.
Hearing her, Anson cannot help but lose his mind with joy, “Are you serious about this?”
“I am really serious about it. I really want to marry you. I hope you will marry me tomorrow.” Miya suppresses her emotions for today and keeps her tone as calm as possible as she says this.
Although the tone is very light and calm, her every word trembles.
Happiness flutters in Anson’s dark eyes for a moment before he calms down again. He takes a calming breath and says in a flat tone, “I know you are just joking with me to make me happy. Although it really did make me happy, I would like it if we end this topic here.” Anson hastens to change the topic because he knows because he knows that it’s basically impossible for her to marry him.
“Why don’t you want to believe me? I am really serious. I really want to marry you. That is why I knelt down and begged you. Please, marry me tomorrow! Do you think I would really joke about this?” Miya knows Anson would not believe her so easily, so she must keep on talking until she convinces him.
Anson doesn’t say anything, just stares at Miya.
“I know why are you doing this. You are proposing to me because you feel guilty, right?” After a while, Anson purses his lips and then says.
“I am not doing this because of guilt…” Miya wants to continue to convince him but Anson interrupts her ruthlessly.
“All of you are trying to hide the condition of my foot. Actually, I have already known it. The doctor said that it is difficult for my foot to heal, and that there’s a chance it might be disabled for life. And at such a time you come to me saying you want to marry me? If you are not sympathizing with me then what are you trying to do?” Anson says with a bitter smile on his face.
