After listening to the audio recordings, there was only silence and awkwardness between the two of them at the dining table. It was then that Sophia finally knew that Stanley had been beaten up again.

She kept her phone away and lowered her head without saying a word. She used her pair of chopsticks to poke at her empty plate, but her ears were actually raised to hear what Michael had to say. He should have something to say for what happened yesterday.

Even though she felt that he might not express his thoughts to her, she still looked forward to it in her heart.

He remained silent without even letting out a grunt after she had waited for a long time. She sneakily glanced at him and saw a pair of sparkling, gleeful eyes staring at her.

The moment both their eyes met, she immediately retracted her sight.

Just like that, he quietly stared at her without making a sound.

He knew that she was waiting for his answer, but she didn’t have the courage to ask him. He could guess her thoughts with a mere glance.

He had been waiting for her to ask first, but she still remained quiet after a while.

Michael sighed. Although my chica has been in my home for almost two years, she still treats me like an outsider. She never reveals her feelings to me. Is it because we never had any intimate contact hence she doesn’t see me as her man?

He was merely waiting for her to be ready. In the end, he broke the silence. “Chica, where do you want the wedding to be held?”

 

Sophia thought she had wrongly heard, so she instinctively let out a sound of confusion.

He continued to speak in seriousness, “I’ve thought about it for a long while. I feel that it is time to make our marriage known to the public. We can’t drag our wedding much longer.”
