Chapter 853 You Two Are Getting Married Anyway
“Don’t forget to keep this a secret,” Samuel reminded him.
Realizing that he had just revealed the plan out loud, Justin flashed him an awkward smile and said softly, “Got it, I’ll be sure to keep it a secret!”
“Things are going to be completely different starting tomorrow…”
Justin nodded profusely in agreement. Of course things are going to be different! Once she accepts his proposal, he will be entering a new chapter of his life!
Justin quickly gave Natalie a call right after Samuel left the greenhouse.
“Hello?”
“Guess who?” Justin responded in a deep voice.
Natalie rolled her eyes as she said, “Cut it out, Justin! I don’t have time for this. Do you have something to tell me or what? If not, I’ll be hanging up now.”
Justin said excitedly, “Oh, you bet I do! Sam wants you to come over to the greenhouse tomorrow at seven! He wants me to keep this a secret from you, but I already let it slip the last time, so… I figured there’s no point in beating around the bush about this. Still…”
“Still what?” Natalie asked with a smile.
“Natalie, Sam worked really hard to prepare this surprise for you. You mustn’t act like you already know what this is about! Sam will kill me if he knows I let you in on this secret!” Justin explained.
Of course, Natalie couldn’t care less if Samuel would have Justin’s head. She simply didn’t want his hard work and effort to be in vain.
I bet Samuel must’ve been planning this thing for a really long time, huh? Maybe he’s been cold to me lately so he could see the look of surprise on my face! If this is what he wants, then I shall do my best to act like I don’t know about it!
With that in mind, Natalie deliberately replied in a helpless tone, “Oh, all right… I suppose I could play dumb to save you this once…”
“Thank you so much, Natalie! By the way, I do have a little suggestion. Tomorrow will be a big day for both you and Sam, so I was thinking of helping you pick out a dress that’ll charm his head off!” Justin said excitedly.
Sensing that Natalie was hesitating, he added, “Stop hesitating, Natalie! Sam may not admit it, but I’m sure he’d be overjoyed if he sees you looking pretty!”
“Okay, then.”
“I’ll come pick you up at four tomorrow!” Justin hung up the phone after that.
Natalie could be seen grinning from ear to ear when Ross came over to have her sign some documents.
“Ms. Nichols, did something pleasant just happen?” he asked instinctively.
“Something like that! Samuel is going to propose to me tomorrow evening! I bet we’ll become a legally married couple really soon!” Natalie replied while receiving the documents from him.
She then signed them before handing them back to Ross, but Ross seemed a little slow when he reached out to take it.
“What’s the matter, Ross?”
“No, it’s nothing.” Ross took a moment to regain his composure before continuing with a smile, “I was just feeling happy for you, that’s all. You and Samuel have been through a lot, so it’s nice to see you two finally get married.”
Natalie broke into a smile. “Yeah! I’m glad that the dark days are over, and I’m really looking forward to our married life together! I won’t come into work tomorrow, so you’ll have more work to handle.”
“No problem.”
Ross knew full well that it was time for him to let go of his feelings for her.
Time soon went by, and it was already four in the afternoon the next day.
Natalie saw Justin pull up in a Porsche Panamera at the location they agreed to meet at.
Justin then got out of the driver’s seat and bowed chivalrously at her as he helped opened the door. “After you, Mrs. Bowers.”
“Samuel hasn’t even proposed to me, and you’re already addressing me as ‘Mrs. Bowers?’“ Natalie asked with a mischievous grin.
“That’s fine! You two are going to get married sooner or later, so you’re bound to become Mrs. Bowers anyway! What’s the problem?” Justin replied confidently.
