He didn't complete his sentence, deliberately keeping the suspense. "Forget it."
"What happened to Magee? The Jiang family and the Leng family were two giants in the business
circles, but there is no competition between the two families. Is Magee your competitor for business?"
"He might be the opponent in the future." With a charming smile on his face, Aaron shook the glass of
wine. "I'm really curious. I took the woman of Magee. What will he do?"
Sensing the danger, Rita stared at Aaron as if she wanted to see through his mind. He was a person
who liked stimulation and weird behavior. He could do everything for his aim and liked to see others'
jokes and appreciate others' pain.
"I warn you, Aaron Leng! You can hurt me, but you can't hurt Magee!" Rita could not control her
emotions. She clenched her fists, and at that moment she wanted to let all the anger out.
She was forced to marry Aaron and she had to get a piece of lot from him. Now the Gu family was on
the verge of bankruptcy. She had to acquire some benefits from the Leng family in this important
period. She felt her life was in a mess, all because of a man called Aaron Leng!
If he didn't show up all of a sudden, things would be different. Maybe she and Magee would be
together.
Aaron hadn't seen Rita being so nervous and angry before. He sneered with interest and squinted at
her. "Why are you so nervous about him?"
"He is my good friend." She turned her head aside and forced to calm herself down. "I don't care if
there will be any conflict between you and him in business, but if you hurt him, I will definitely...
definitely..."
"Definitely what?" He was very interested in what Rita was going to do next. There was a trace of
inquiry in his eyes. "The reason why you are so nervous about Magee is that you like him."
"You are really a meddlesome man." Her face was almost wrinkled into a ball, and her red face was full
of stubbornness.
She did like Magee for many years.
Before the Gu family got in trouble, the Jiang family and the Gu family were friends for generations.
Rita went to school together with Magee when she grew up. She thought that she would be with him
when she grew up, but neither of them said a word to show their love. No one did take the first step
forward.
She had waited for many years, and she had doubted, been nervous, and even tried to get up the
courage to tell him. But every time she wanted to speak, there would be other women around him.
When he broke up, being single, she had other wooers.
He never made it clear whether he really like her or not. Or he just regarded her as an ordinary friend.
Only a childhood friend? Just a playmate?
After Magee went abroad, there was a crisis in the Gu family. The Jiang family drew a clear distinction
with them. She had been waiting for Magee to come back. She always thought that it was Magee who
would help her out. She wanted to ask him for help, but she was too stubborn. She didn't want her
loved one to see her weakness.
She was afraid that she had waited for so many years and finally she got nothing.
On that night she met Aaron, she was drunk. She took out her phone and wanted to call Magee, but
her phone was taken away by someone. Then she had a hookup with Aaron by accident. Things got
more and more ridiculous. She was forced to marry Aaron!
Everything changed when Magee came back.
Why was Aaron the man beside her when she was weak? Was it an arrangement of destiny?
Arranging Aaron to show up and marry her?
Aaron scrutinized her for a while. He knew that in her heart, Magee was very important. They liked
each other. How could the two persons with attractions become to this point?
It must be an interesting story.
Aaron touched his chin and asked, "Do you know why I take you here for dinner?"
"Why?" He suddenly changed the topic. She looked up and saw him snapping his fingers to the
distance.
At that moment, the light was suddenly turned off and there was a noise around. Rita stood up
subconsciously and shouted at Aaron, "What's going on?"
Then a hand suddenly gripped her palm.
In the middle of the restaurant, a string of lamps were lighted. They quickly spread to her feet leading
her to the center of the stage. When the star lights were lit up, she noticed the man who held her hand
was Aaron.
Through the bright light, she saw Aaron's face and his smile.
"I prepared this to give you a surprise."
At the center stage of the restaurant surrounded by nine hundred and ninety-nine roses, the band
began to play the music. The flying flower petals was falling down like rain.
All of a sudden, "Rita", her name showed up by the light on the building outside the window.
Her name was shining on the building. She was pulled to the center of the stage by Aaron.
The petals fell down like rain, and soon filled the whole stage. The stage was surrounded by smoke,
and countless bubbles rose up. She stood in the center of roses, like a princess in the castle. Her
hands were held by Aaron, and he was like a prince, bringing his princess to the attention of the crowd.
"Don't you want me to propose to you?"
