Chapter 98: Two Rewards

Lights danced in the night on the private island resort. Drones formed red hearts above Evan and Shantelle, making them the center of attention.

While holding an engagement ring up to Shantelle, Evan was nervous. He said, “Marry me, Shanty.”

He appeared to be smiling, but deep inside, his heart was drumming against his ribcage. Sure, he and Shantelle had gotten incredibly close as Lucas’ parents and as a couple. However, to Evan, there was no telling what was going on in her head.

Over the past weeks, he never expected her to pay him another visit at the office, but she did. In fact, after her first visit, she came on three occasions, bringing lunch. Little by little, she was making efforts in their relationship. Despite that, she never affirmed her feelings in words.

Last week, when he tried to trick her into marrying him on paper, she may have hinted she was willing to marry him. Still, it wasn’t a direct indication, making Evan anxious.

Evan gulped as he watched Shantelle look at him. Her eyes landed on the ring. He could see how her eyes were starting to water, and he certainly hoped it meant she would say yes. She might say yes for the sake of Lucas and their future children, but from Evan’s point of view, it had to start from somewhere. Sooner or later, he will hear those sweet words he longed to hear.

“Evan,” Shantelle finally said. A smile formed on her face when she replied, “Yes, I will marry you, Evan Thompson.” 1

” What?” He could not believe his ears.

Shantelle repeated, “I will marry you, Evan!” i

“Yahoo! Congrats, bro!” Evan could hear Sean give his praises. His friends recorded everything the moment the drones went up in the sky.

“Daddy, Mommy said yes!” Lucas helped her father.

Evan let out a very loud sigh. He puffed repeatedly and screamed at the top of his lungs, “YES!!!!”

He pointed to his friends and said, “She said yes!”
