Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 297 Marry Me

Following that, Zachary buried his head into Nicole’s shoulders as his voice trembled. “Nicole, I’m scared. When I tried to pursue you back then, I didn’t care about how you reacted because I knew that even if you rejected me, you wouldn’t have accepted anyone else. But now, things have changed. You and Colton share Hayden now… I…”

Nicole was a little amused hearing the trembling voice by her ear. She knew exactly what he wanted to say and lightly pushed him away before consoling in a serious tone, “Zach, I don’t like Colton. Even if the Gardners acknowledge Hayden as a part of their family, I won’t move in with them.”

As soon as he heard this, his tense face had finally eased a little.

His eyes were slowly taken over by seriousness and his fear dissipated as he bluntly proposed. “Nicole, will you marry me?”

Taken aback by his sudden proposal, she looked at the man before her with a confused and strange look.
