Chapter 338: A bride

"I thought she was forcing a future neither of us wanted."

His eyes met mine again.

"But I was wrong."

"So very wrong."

His voice grew softer.

"I didn’t realize..."

"That the same girl standing in front of me today..."

"Would become the person who changed my entire life."

He smiled gently.

"Nana saw something in us long before I ever did."

"And now..."

"When I look at the woman you’ve become..."

"I finally understand why she never gave up on us."

A lump formed in my throat.

I simply stood there, listening.

Not wanting to interrupt a single word.

"I know we didn’t begin the right way."

"I made countless mistakes."

"I hurt you."

"I failed you as your husband."

"And I can never erase that."

He took a slow breath.

"But..."

"I can spend the rest of my life making sure you never regret choosing me again."

Before I could react...

He slowly released my hand.

Then...

To my complete shock...

Alexander lowered himself onto one knee.

Right there.

On the grass beneath the morning sun.

My eyes widened.

"Alexander..."

He reached into his suit jacket.

When he brought out a small velvet box...

I instinctively covered my mouth.

The moment it opened, an exquisite diamond ring sparkled beneath the sunlight.

My vision blurred almost instantly.

Tears filled my eyes before I even realized I was crying.

Alexander looked up at me.

His usually steady eyes now carried a vulnerability I’d never seen before.

"We can’t change our past."

"But we can choose our future."

He smiled softly.

"So..."

"Will you give me the chance to love you properly this time?"

"Will you let me give you the wedding you deserved from the very beginning?"

He opened the ring box completely.

"Alicia Sinclair..."

"Will you choose me again?"

"And this time..."

"Will you marry me not because of an arrangement..."

"But because we both choose each other?"

The world around us seemed to disappear.

There was only Alexander...

Still kneeling before me.

Waiting patiently for my answer.

I nodded without a moment’s hesitation.

"Yes..."

A smile slowly spread across my face as I stretched out my hand toward him.

"Yes, I will."

For a brief second, Alexander simply stared at me.

It was as if he couldn’t quite believe what he’d just heard.

The nervousness in his eyes melted away, replaced by relief and overwhelming happiness.

A faint smile tugged at his lips as he carefully slipped the diamond ring onto my finger.

It fit perfectly.

His fingertips lingered around my hand for a moment before I gently helped him to his feet.

The instant he stood, Alexander wrapped his arms tightly around me.

I returned the embrace without hesitation.

His heartbeat was steady against my chest.

"Thank you," he whispered near my ear, his voice thick with emotion.

I smiled softly.

After a long moment, I pulled back just enough to look at him.

Without saying a word, I rose slightly on my toes and pressed my lips against his.

The kiss was slow.

Gentle.

Filled with all the emotions neither of us could find the words to express.

"Ahem."

Someone deliberately cleared their throat behind us.

Instinctively, I tried to pull away, but Alexander only tightened his arms around my waist, refusing to let me go.

"We’re going to be late."

"Don’t you think?"

Sophie’s amused voice reached my ears.

I froze.

Alexander finally ended the kiss with one last lingering peck before looking at me.

The tenderness in his eyes made my cheeks burn.

Only then did I realize Sophie had already walked over to us.

She slipped her arm through mine with a teasing smile.

"Sorry to interrupt your moment..."

"But we need to get your bride ready, Mr. Blackwood."

I blinked.

"Bride?"

I looked at her in confusion.

She simply smiled without answering.

Before I could ask another question, I felt Alexander gently squeeze my hand.

I turned back to him.

"I’ll see you in a little while."

He smiled reassuringly.

I nodded instinctively, though I still had no idea what everyone was hiding from me.

Without giving me another chance to ask questions, Sophie began leading me toward the mansion.

The moment we stepped inside, I noticed how unusually lively it was.

Footsteps echoed from different directions.

Voices drifted through the hallways.

It sounded as though dozens of people were busy with something.

Every time I tried to look around, Sophie gently guided me forward.

"Sophie..."

"What’s going on?"

"We need to get you ready quickly."

That was all she said.
