When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel (Ashton and Scarlett ) novel Chapter 1603

He had a passionate look in his eyes as he continued, “I was very young when I first met you. Little did I know, that encounter has planted a seed of love for you which then grew into a towering tree rooted deeply in my heart.

“My life was in black and white, but then your smile filled it with colors and brightened up every dark moment. I’m not sure if this is a blessing from you or the heavens taking pity on me, but I do know that there is no escaping this sweet trap of loving you.

“You have me so deeply in love that I see you everywhere I go. In fact, I’m glad humans do not have a tail, or it would surely be wagging like crazy whenever I am around you.

“The world is a dark place, but having you around makes it bright as day.

“No one could compare to the place you have in my heart, and I hope you will forgive me for taking the liberty of proposing to you in such a manner. I did so because you are simply too amazing, and I feared someone else would steal you from me if I didn’t make my move first. As such, I decided this would be the best way to show everyone that you belong to me alone.

Our eyes met through the screen, and I couldn’t help but chuckle in response.

A ring was just a materialization of the vows in marriage, and yet Ashton had spent so much money on it just to prove his love for me. The fact that he even set this whole scenario up just to propose to me felt so silly that I found it oddly adorable.

Ashton seemed to have anticipated my reaction and looked to the side shyly as if to tell me that it wasn’t his idea.

Tears rolled down my cheeks, and I couldn’t even tell if I was crying over the grueling journey we went through to get here or the efforts he put into everything. Perhaps it was a bit of both.

“Letty, will you take my hand in marriage and spend the rest of your life with me?”
