The spot stained with red wine was torn off by Jane Quinlan and thrown aside.
She looked at the girl with a smile and curved eyes: "It’s okay, you go eat."
"I’m so sorry, really sorry."
The girl quickly escaped from the crowd as if fleeing.
The people around Jane Quinlan looked at her with admiring eyes.
Seeing her comfortable demeanor, Wendy gritted her teeth in hatred.
This woman, daring to steal the spotlight , it’s infuriating.
Evie Larkin looked at Jane Quinlan with concern: "Are you really okay? Your dress also seems expensive."
"It’s fine, no matter how expensive the dress is, it’s not as important as a person’s dignity.
The girl was terrified, I couldn’t let her take the blame.
Moreover, it wasn’t intentional."
Evie Larkin sighed, looking at her: "How can you be so nice?"
Jane Quinlan pursed her lips, looked up and smiled faintly at Kay Forrest among the crowd.
It was then Kay Forrest clapped his hands and walked up to Jane Quinlan.
"Even the finest clothes need the right owner.
See, thanks to your grace, the dress still looks beautiful even though it’s been shortened."
Jane Quinlan frowned at him, wondering why he had come out.
Because of his clapping, the people around also started applauding along.
Kay Forrest looked at Jane Quinlan with admiration, his woman needs to have this kind of generosity, nice.
He always felt uneasy about her being on her own.
He thought he should protect her to the best of his abilities.
But today, he really underestimated her skills.
Unexpectedly, she has such a side, but if she really knew how expensive this dress was, perhaps she wouldn’t dare to act .
Wendy snorted coldly and walked out from the crowd.
Meanwhile, many female employees in the crowd began to despise Jane Quinlan.
They thought this was a stunt Jane Quinlan deliberately designed to seduce the young master.
Jane Quinlan nodded to Kay Forrest: "Thank you, Director Forrest."
After speaking, she turned to leave, but was pulled back into his arms by Kay Forrest grabbing her wrist.
This action not only stunned Jane Quinlan, but also the surrounding crowd.
It was widely heard that the young master had peculiar ways of flirting.
But to make a move with just one look, it’s really too fast.
Seeing how Kay Forrest looked at Jane Quinlan, Evie Larkin felt something was quite off.
She stepped forward: "Kay, let me take Ms. Quinlan to freshen up backstage."
Kay Forrest’s eyes fixed on Jane Quinlan’s face, leisurely said: "She is perfect from head to toe, there’s nothing to fix."
Jane Quinlan thought, what is Kay Forrest trying to do? Has he gone mad?
Everyone in the company is here.
Kay Forrest pursed his lips at her, and holding her hand, they ascended the stage.
The moment she stood on the stage, Jane Quinlan felt she instantly became the center of attention in the company.
Even Benjamin Quinlan, who was always on the periphery, was dumbfounded.
Why did Director Forrest take little Jane to the stage?
His colleague nudged Benjamin Quinlan: "Dude, what’s going on, why did Director Forrest bring your sister to the stage?
Your sister has a boyfriend, isn’t it inappropriate for Director Forrest to publicly snatch her ?"
Benjamin Quinlan hissed, he also wanted to see what Director Forrest was really up to.
As soon as the two got on stage, the lights of the entire venue immediately went out.
There was a burst of exclamations from the pitch-black banquet hall.
Jane Quinlan looked around, wondering what was going on.
Just as she was puzzled, she heard a clang nearby.
It was still dark around, but just on the stage, she and Kay Forrest were highlighted under the chasing lights.
The previously chattering stage below instantly fell silent.
Kay Forrest smiled with a hint of tender affection while looking at Jane Quinlan.
Jane Quinlan’s heart was already beating chaotically.
He stepped forward and gently took her hand: "Jane, even though you’ve repeatedly asked me not to make our relationship public, I feel I can’t wait any longer."
Jane Quinlan bit her lip, he was going to make their relationship public.
But, was it necessary to make such a big spectacle? It feels so embarrassing.
"The time we’ve known each other might not seem long to others.
You are not the woman I’ve dated the longest.
But you are the only one, the deeper our relationship goes, the more I want to marry."
I know, when you are with me, you feel inferior, worried, and insecure.
I can feel all of these.
Today, I am willing to stand here, in front of everyone, to assure you that my feelings for you are genuine.
I am more sincere about this relationship than ever before.
Others may see you as ordinary, but in my eyes, you have never been ordinary.
I like you just the way you are, because your beauty is seen only by me and belongs only to me."
Kay Forrest held her hand and confessed his feelings deeply.
Jane Quinlan’s eyes instantly welled up as she listened, more and more moved, eventually she couldn’t help but burst into tears.
He released her right hand, raised his hand to wipe away her tears: "Silly girl, why are you crying."
She shook her head, unable to utter a word.
At this moment, her heart was filled with thousands of words, but she couldn’t open her mouth.
She didn’t know how to express her full love.
"Don’t cry, this is just the beginning."
Just the beginning? She wondered for a moment.
As she pondered, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a small box.
Anyone would know what he was about to do upon seeing the box.
Jane Quinlan looked at him in surprise, when did Kay Forrest prepare all this?
He slowly opened the box, and a gleaming diamond ring appeared before her.
"I had the world’s greatest jewelry designer create this ring for our love ten days ago.
There is only one such ring in the world, with our names engraved behind the diamond, symbolizing everlasting love.
It has a lovely name, well-matching our love, called Love Eternal.
Today, I stand before you, and ask you loudly: Jane Quinlan, will you marry me?"
Kay Forrest’s voice was very loud, resounding enough that even without a microphone, everyone in the hall could hear it.
After speaking, he knelt down on one knee, looking up and raising the ring high in front of him.
At that moment, Jane Quinlan truly felt like she was the happiest woman in the world.
Even in her dreams, she had never imagined that she could be proposed to in such a romantic way.
However, because of Kay Forrest, all this had become real.
It was Kay Forrest who made her princess dream come true.
She loves this man, loves him dearly.
Because of love, what reason does she have not to marry him.
She covered her mouth with her hands, her tears of surprise mixing with her smile, all were the flavors of happiness.
Kay Forrest also smiled watching her.
Jane Quinlan nodded vigorously, "I am willing."
"What did you say, I can’t hear you, louder," Kay Forrest pressed further.
Jane Quinlan had already forgotten the presence of others around them.
She cupped her hands around her lips and shouted loudly: "I am willing.
I am willing to marry Kay Forrest as wife, to love him my whole life, to stay with him through thick and thin until we grow old together.
I am willing from now on, my heart beats only for Kay Forrest.
I am willing to hold your hand... and grow old with you."
The last eight words, her voice slowed down a bit.
She looked at him, nodded, and said, "I am willing."
Kay Forrest stood up and placed the ring on her finger, watching her delicate hands securely enclosed by his, at that moment his heart couldn’t be more content.
He embraced her, and someone in the audience initiated applause.
The couple was suddenly overwhelmed by the applause, and the lights in the hall brightened all at once.
Jane Quinlan then remembered there were people below, she stiffened and tightly hugged him, whispering in his ear: "Forgot there were people."
Kay Forrest laughed: "It’s okay, you can forget about them all, just don’t forget the vows you just made."
Jane Quinlan bit his shoulder lightly, making Kay Forrest wince and mutter, "Just confessed and now plotting to murder your husband already?"
Jane Quinlan felt embarrassed: "What to do, I feel embarrassed, I’m shy to walk out by myself.
Maybe you can use your authority to have them turn around, and we can sneak out?"
"Sneak out? That won’t do, I’m not a street rat.
If you’re too embarrassed to go out yourself, then hide that little face well, and I’ll carry you out."
"In my arms," he had just finished speaking when he picked her up.
Jane Quinlan was startled and quickly clung to him, burying her face in his chest.
Kay Forrest boldly carried her out of the hall.
Evie Larkin clenched her fist, damn it, all because of that Wendy, who not only failed to break them apart but also helped fan their flames, truly an incompetent good for nothing.
