1. The Strange Proposal

The countryside was ablaze with color in autumn, and Mirabel Churchill, the nineteen years florist, and the illegitimate daughter of the Churchill family, was excited about the celebrations that were ahead. She recalled the festivities that the entire family enjoyed at that season of the year, especially with the woman she grew up to know as her grandmother, Grandma Phoebe. She was relishing the good memories in her exquisite, and beautiful office that afternoon while leaning on the window stool, and admiring her two hectares of flowers farm when she heard a familiar voice.“Mira, I want to believe that all is set for tomorrow,” Alfred Walter remarked, and without a formal salutation. Now, his appealing voice broke Mirabel's beautiful reverie, and she jolted. She turned and saw the clingy Alfred, who she knew little or nothing about, walking towards the couch. Although, he noticed her astonishment, but he ignored it, and sat comfortably on the couch. To her perplexity, he appeared to b

2. The Strange Proposal 1

Due to the humiliating disappointments, Mirabel took a decision to remain single when she discovered how dejected her grandmother felt whenever she returned from her blind dates very disappointed, and narrate how her dates walked out on her.“Mirabel, you are a sweet girl,” her grandmother would always encourage, to ensure that her self-esteem was not destroyed.“You are right, grandma, but to avoid further heartbreaks, I think it is a good idea to forget about the things that bring us sorrow, and focus on the things that give us joy,” she pointed out. Now, her grandmother ran her eyes over her, and ascertained the joy she radiated when she made her point.“I see, and what is that thing that would give us joy apart from seeing you love and being loved?” She asked anxiously.“Agriculture, grandma. It is wonderful when we plant flowers, and watch them grow. The beauty they add to our environments is inexplicable, and I am not convinced that any man can give me such joy,” she explained ha

“Happy birthday once again to the only lady who means everything to me,” he said, while presenting the bouquet to her.“Oh! My God!” She exclaimed when she saw the beautiful flowers, which were the expression of how he felt about her. Now she stood up, and collected it. Thereafter, she gave him a prolonged hug, and appreciated, “Thank you for loving me, my dear. I promise to make you happy for the rest of your life.”“You are welcome, sweetheart.

4. The Strange Proposal 3

At the Grandmother's RoomAfterward, she returned home dejectedly, and walked straight to her grandmother's room for succor. She threw her purse aside as though it was the cause of her problem, and laid helplessly with her back on the bed.“Mirabel, what is the matter? You are so exhausted,” her worried grandmother looked away from her piano, and pointed out. Howbeit, she was shedding tears of anguish while her eyes were fixed on the upper interior surface of the room. “What? You are weeping, Mirabel,” Phoebe cried out with surprise when she got close to her. Meanwhile, the agonizing Mirabel was unable to speak because of the burden in her heart. “Talk to me, dear. What is the matter?” She urged, and sat beside her. “I goofed up today, grandma,” she sobbed, and tried to dry her tears.“Oh my God! How serious is it?”“So serious. I was careless to give a client the wrong bouquet, and it ruined his date.”“That was a costly mistake. I hope she didn't walk out on him; otherwise, the lo

5. The Strange Proposal 4

Such accolades often leave the King confused because he believed that he was not, but it made him horny whenever she said it.“Am I?” He asked, as he regularly did. To reassure him, she confirmed, “You are the best thing that has ever happened to me. I love you, my King.”“I love you so much, my Queen. If I may ask, can you tell me more about Mirabel?”At that moment, Phoebe was overwrought, 'What if he chose to take the slave as his second wife?' Phoebe mulled over.The Next Day – At Mirabel's ChambersBefore she went to sleep the previous day, she had instructed her servants, that she would leave for work earlier than usual, and they were aware of what to do.“We got it, Your Majesty,” they responded and served her with her light dinner. She went to bed very relieved. To her delight, she was not worried as she expected. Her grandmother's encouraging words calmed her fears. Then, the King's recognition of her and interest in her business, were the icing on the cake, and she had a peac

6. The Strange Proposal 5

“I don't think it is a good idea,” she looked into Alfred's eyes, who concealed his disappointment, and refuted.“Why?” The young men asked at once.“I am not the lady, and I would not say her mind. I propose that you send for her, and rehearse with her.”Indeed, Alfred was good at the game. At that point, Carson was lost of the next line of argument, but not the case with Alfred, and he fought on, “You seemed not to realize the situation of things. How can I send for someone who is mad at me? Do you think I don't value my reputation?”“Oh! Is she still mad at you?”“Young lady, we have to take our leave. I wouldn't have you to cause my friend more pain by reminding him of what he is fighting hard to sort out,” Carson stood up, and informed. Nevertheless, the sad Alfred dropped the bouquet on the table and waited for Carson to take a step, while Mirabel was filled with pity, both for herself and Alfred. On the other hand, Carson moved on, and Alfred followed. They walked out of the off

Two Days Later – At Mirabel's OfficeIt had been two days of emotional torture for Mirabel, but she managed her feelings properly. She longed to be in her office, and reminisce their meeting. She recalled how Alfred missed his lines, and the silly look on his face. “I have found another excuse to laugh …” she laughed softly over the manner that he mixed things up, and mumbled, “I hope he would not make such a costly mistake before his woman.”On an impulse, she had made the visitors' seat that Alfred sat on that day her new seat. She would either sit on it and work, or lean on the window sill, and admire the flowers on her farm when she was less busy. However, that day was not an exception. She was lost in her thoughts when the intercom buzzing sound caught her attention. She looked at the intercom, and picked up the receiver at once.“Hello. How may I help you, officer?” She inquired, and looked at the closed-circuit television“Mr. Carson Gilmore is here to …”“Kindly usher him in,”

“Does that mean that she is happy with the program?”“You are right,” Carson stated, and thereafter, gave him the detailed report of their discussions, especially the issue of the proposal, which was the crux of the matter, and concluded with, “Congratulations. I wish you a happy married life.”Now, Alfred was thrilled, and he asked, “Why did you think that my proposal to her would be a success?”“Because she would do anything to redeem her company.”“No. I'm not interested in that. From your discussion with her, does she feel anything for me?”“I'm sure of that. Above all, she is a kind-hearted and warm person.”“I'm lucky. Thank you for your support.”“It is my pleasure. Let's get down to business. You know that we have a lot. We are making our perfumery debut during the event.”“You are right. Every registrant will go home with a pack.”“That is lovely.”At Mirabel's ShopAfter Carson left, she walked back to her office, relieved. She took her seat joyfully, and looked at the Memora

The Following WeekMira Love Garden had always been in the spotlight, but since the event teaser projected her as the only flower store to partner with, her fame grew to an unexpected height. Nevertheless, the Prince would not hesitate to stop by as he promised.

Instantly, Princess Aurora frowned, and declared, “My mom said she is not a Princess or my aunt”“Your mom is not aware of the truth. I am your father, and I know the truth. Right?”“I see. What is the truth, then?”“She is my little sister, and your aunt.”“I see. How do we make mom to know the truth?”“She will know with time, but keep her out of this. Did you get it?”Aurora looked at her father in the eyes, and asked, “What if she

Meanwhile, Pearl did her advert too from her end and some students from the wealthy class bought some tickets too. Apart from Mirabel's three tables, those five tables were guided by five fierce looking guards. They were to report to the owners when it was appropriate to arrive. Incidentally, the ushers did not know the owners either.Likewise, Mira Love Garden's Booth was filled with different beautiful flowers. Her overwrought competitors bought the ticket, just to see what she was capable of. They visited the stand like others, just to find the reason to condemn her. When they found none, they created one, “So what, if her booth is beautiful?” They mocked in disappointment from their regular seats at the back and at the gallery of the auditorium and waited for her arr
