The weekend came too fast for Callum. The more he wished that it would not come, the faster the time went by. It was early in the morning and they decided to use a plane to visit Bea’s hometown. He let Caleb sleep while on the plane since the young boy was already used to traveling to different countries by plane.As soon as the plane landed in the province, he carried him, careful not to wake him up.“Daddy, you didn’t forget the ring, right?” Caleb mumbled as he hugged his father’s neck.“Yes, son. How could I forget?” he chuckled. It seemed like his son was more excited about his proposal compared to him.A man gave him the keys to the car that he rented and put Caleb on the car seat at the back. He made sure that Caleb was safely tucked before he sat on the driver’s seat and started the car. Should they check in first?“Daddy, let’s go meet Miss Bea first, please.” As if his son

Chapter 52: Proposal

It was awkward. From the moment they entered the restaurant until after the food was served, the atmosphere between Callum and Bea had been awkward. They had been tiptoeing around each other since their ride to the restaurant and no one dared to break the ice between them.“After the drinks were served, the waiter smiled. “Enjoy your meal.”Callum took a sip of the juice and gathered the courage to speak. Even if his goal was to get rejected, he could not stop himself from being nervous.“Bea…” Callum sighed as he took the ring from his pocket. He opened the case and shoved it closer to her. “I know I told you that I would not do this, but I had no choice. Will you marry me?”“You really…” Bea shook her head and sighed. “You don’t know how to beat around the bush, huh?”Callum chuckled as he felt relieved that Bea did not slap or looked at her with disgust.

They talked about how Caleb had been after she went home and she somehow shared how cute her nieces and nephews were.“I shall bring you back home now. Let’s set a schedule when my family would visit yours, okay?” Callum said with a smile.“Why would you visit my family?” Bea asked. She felt as if a bucket of cold water was splashed on her and it made her get herself together. Why would he suddenly decide to visit her family?“Hey, don’t tell me you forgot that we’re getting married? Of course, we should inform them about our upcoming marriage, right? You don’t have to worry about the preparations, I’ll do it all on my end.”Bea looked down. But she wanted to be the one to prepare her own wedding. It was a once-in-a-lifetime event for her especially since they would not have a divorce no matter what. She had been a bit reckless w

Callum followed Bea’s father outside and they sat on the wooden bench on the terrace. The man looked at the afternoon sky with a tired smile on his face.“Truthfully, I don’t know much about you. All I know is that you were her source of comfort when everything crumbled down and we weren’t there for her,” Ben said without even looking at him. “Of course, I would be surprised to see my daughter having a ring on her finger a month after breaking up with her 5-year-long boyfriend. And I am also afraid… William had been with her for five years, but he cheated on her. How could I be sure that you will really treasure my daughter?”“Sir, I won’t brag but I was born having almost everything I want because I was from a wealthy family. I also made sure that I excel in almost everything so I was never scolded. There were few who were jealous of me but none of them openly showed that they disliked me. But because Bea sh

He told her that she could also search for other places but she believed that his suggestion would be best even if she tried searching.They were already at the last place and she decided that it was the best place to hold their wedding since it was big enough and it also had a cozy vibe that reminded her of her home.“This is big enough.

She could see that the entourage has started their entrance with a slow violin instrumental as their background music.The closer she got to the arc, the lesser the people in line were.

The flower girl walked from the altar towards her and bowed before she gave her the bouquet.She took the bouquet from the little girl and smiled. The girl walked back to the altar while she slowly walked down the aisle.
