Love's Perfect Match

Meanwhile, the fireworks went off as planned, sending a rainbow of sparks into the sky to spell out "Elspeth" rather than the usual patterns.

Caught off guard, Elspeth looked puzzled as the background music suddenly turned incredibly romantic.

In a sharp-looking suit, Slevin walked out, holding a bouquet of flowers.

As he slowly approached her, she instinctively took a few steps back and asked, "Slevin, what are you up to?"

Nonetheless, he smiled and said nothing while waiting for the music to stop. Then, he kneeled on one knee and spoke with a clear, melodious voice, "Elspeth, will you marry me? I have waited for four years and refuse to wait any longer."

Elspeth admitted that she was aware that Slevin might have harbored romantic feelings for her, but she had always kept her distance, and it had never crossed her mind to pursue a relationship with him. However, faced with the current situation and the man's public proposal, she wondered if he was trying to force her into submission.

Furrowing her brow, she suggested, "There are so many people here, so let's talk about this privately."

She didn't want to disrespect him, so she neither publicly rejected him to avoid embarrassing him nor readily accepted him. Nevertheless, she had no feelings for him from the beginning, and if they were destined to be together, they would have been together already, not via a forced marriage proposal.

In the meantime, those around her appeared to have different perspectives, as they believed she was overcome with happiness when they saw her standing as still as a statue.

Some bold individuals even approached and tugged at her clothes, saying, "Young lady, just say yes. This young man is handsome, has a good personality, and is wealthy. He has arranged this grand fireworks feast for you. If you miss this opportunity, you won't find it elsewhere."

Elspeth mustered a forced smile and replied, "Sorry, but you don't need to say more. Our relationship isn't what you think it is."
