The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 5185

Seeing her admire Darryl so much only made the displeasure in Vincent's chest grow even more.

He hurried to change the subject. "That's enough. Let's not talk about that."

As he spoke, Vincent glanced around him. Then, upon making sure that no one could overhear the two of them, a smile appeared on his face as he said in a mysterious tone, "I've got some good news, Sister Gigi."

"What good news?" Gigi perked up at the words.

Vincent took a deep breath, walking closer to gaze deeply into Gigi's eyes. "I told my master about us before I made the trip to the North Sea Galaxy. He's given us his blessing to bring me to the Pure Yang Division in half a month to ask your master for your hand in marriage."

Vincent was overwhelmed with emotion.

He considered himself and Gigi as practically childhood lovers, and he had dreamt of marrying her many a night. Since his master had agreed to let him propose, he could hardly contain his joy.

Hand in marriage?

Gigi was startled by his words. "What marriage?"

She had drunk quite a bit at the banquet and still had not recovered to her senses.

Vincent gazed at her lovingly. "Silly girl. Our marriage, of course."

As the words rang through the air, Gigi sobered up instantly. She stared at Vincent in a daze for over ten seconds before returning to her senses as she shook her head.

"You're… You're too funny, Brother Vincent."

Despite her and Vincent having grown up together and having a pretty good relationship, they were still quite far from becoming a couple. The mention of him proposing made her reject him by nature.

Seeing her reaction, Vincent panicked. "I'm sure you know I've liked you all these years but never said it out loud, Sister Gigi. I really want you to be my wife. Please don't worry. I'll treat you very well."

As he spoke, Vincent could not help but tug at Gigi's hand.

Slip!
