Chapter 321

The sun was shining bright in the sky.Even in the hot summer weather, Heavensgate Residence was refreshingly cool thanks to the shade of the woods.Ezra sat leisurely on the garden swing, swaying gently.Aldus was still in the hospital. He had regained consciousness, but it would be a while before he could be discharged.Raquel was taking attentive care of him in the hospital.After lunch at noon, Dahlia left the house.Ezra knew where Dahlia went, but as a household staff member, he didn't have the right to stop her. He didn't dare to tell Austin about it, either, for he didn't doubt Dahlia's threats to end her life if he did.Ezra was the only person left in the huge villa.It felt a little empty.Still, Ezra didn't mind it. He made himself at home.Holding a teacup in his hand, Ezra leaned leisurely against the seat of the swing.But a single call had ended his leisure time.When Ezra saw the words "Mr. Walter" on the screen, his expression instantly turned stern."Mr.

Dahlia gritted her teeth stubbornly. She said slowly, "I've been dragging Austin down for so long, and now that our family is finally seeing better days, I don't want this matter to drag him down again. He's my son, and my heart aches for him. He's already tired enough as it is!"Ezra had a dark look on his face as he said in exasperation, "But I fear that you may not be able to handle this matter properly, Madam Emerson. You were already aware back then that problems come with power."Now that sir is already grown up, even you should be under his protection. How will you deal with the matter?""Enough!" Dahlia retorted firmly. She had lost her usual gentle and friendly demeanor.Ezra watched as Dahlia entered the house. His originally good mood was ruined.He sighed helplessly. "Wolves are born wild, so how can they possibly understand human kindness? Their instinct is to devour everything at all costs. Madam Emerson, why can't you understand that?"…Time slowly went by.To A

"Yes, we're at the foot of the hill."Cecily's voice sounded very calm over the phone.Austin frowned a little when he noticed it. He was slightly puzzled.Right after that, Cecily's voice rang out again over the phone."Are you really going to propose to me?"Austin frowned even deeper. Smiling, he said, "Of course. I've been preparing for a long time just for today."As soon as Austin said that, Edward's voice suddenly rang out on the other end of the line."Austin, what's the matter with those photos?"Austin felt like he was struck by lightning. His heart instantly sank, and he felt his vision turning dark.Something bad had happened!In an instant, a foul emotion filled his chest, and fury raged within him.If Cecily and her family had learned about this, then there was only one possibility.Nancy didn't destroy the photos like she had promised!Instead, she had sent the photos to Cecily!Austin hastily said, "Mr. Graham, please wait for me. I'll be there right away.

Austin had a stern look on his face as he spoke earnestly."Hah, take advantage?" Edward sneered. "And who might that be? Are you telling me that Nancy is using you? Are you saying that she asked to meet you so that the photos can be taken, and so she can break you and Cecily up?"Austin's gaze flickered. He was at a loss for words.Even though it was the truth, judging by Edward's reaction, Austin knew that no one would believe him if he said it."Cecily…"Austin wanted to walk toward Cecily, but Edward raised his hand to stop Austin."Mr. Graham, can you please let me pass?" Austin said, almost begging."If you have something to say, say it here." Edward was unyielding.If Cecily hadn't stopped him, on the day he saw the photos, he would have come over and questioned Austin about it.The Grahams had never been disgraced like this before!"I…"Austin didn't know what to say. He looked at Cecily with tenderness in his gaze. "Cecily, do you feel the same?""Austin, I need yo

"Cecily…"Austin's expression shifted. He felt like his heart was going to leap out of his chest.He hastily ran after them.But the G-Class was speeding, and it soon disappeared into the night.Suddenly, on the mountain road in the distance, two beams of light came into view.With a screech, the two cars stopped at the same time, right before they collided.Startled, Austin hastily ran over to the scene. But when he approached the spot and saw the person getting out of the other car, he froze.After a moment of bewilderment, the burning rage in his chest instantly exploded.At that moment, Austin looked just like a ferocious beast. With reddened eyes, he dashed toward that person.Meanwhile, Cecily also got out of the G-Class.Cecily had a despondent look on her pale face as she gazed at the figure in front of her.She smiled bitterly. "You won!"The person who had gotten out of the car was none other than Nancy!Nancy's long hair was draped across her shoulders. She look

Cecily's pretty face turned red.After the misunderstanding was resolved, the last hurdle in her heart had disappeared.The only thing left was her anticipation of the proposal. It filled her heart.She had waited for this scene for three years!Three years ago, as a bridesmaid, she had watched as Austin and Nancy got married.The next day, she immediately went overseas.Throughout those three years, because of the person whose figure still lingered in her mind, she rejected countless men from rich and influential families.Now… her wish finally came true."Cecily… you'd better keep yourself in check later. Don't disgrace the Graham family," Edward suddenly said.At the side, Rachel complained, "Is this how you handle things as her dad? This is a once-in-a-lifetime event, so why are you telling her to keep herself in check? You're saying this just because you can't humble yourself after reprimanding Austin just now."Rachel saw through Edward right away.Edward scratched his

Cecily couldn't even remember some of the photos.Austin must have put in a lot of effort to gather these photos!The proposal she wanted wasn't anything grand. She was yearning for snapshots of memories like this, which carried a lot of tenderness.As more photos appeared on the screen, the song "You, Who Sat Next to Me" started playing on both sides of the stage.In an instant, the song reminded Cecily of her days in college.Memories began to flood her mind.The scenes of the past kept appearing in her mind, just like the photos on the screen.Her already red and swollen eyes gradually turned moist again.Austin lifted his hand, gently wiping away the moisture in the corners of Cecily's eyes. "Silly Cecily, are you sure you want to cry just because of this?""Isn't this enough?" Cecily returned the question.She couldn't even remember some of the photos taken. It wasn't hard to imagine how hard Austin worked to gather all the photos.However, Austin smiled. "You're my wom

"Cecily, thank you for not abandoning me."When Austin's gentle voice rang out, Cecily finally shuddered as she came to her senses.Amid the fireworks and the rain of flowers, Cecily slowly lowered her head and looked at Austin, who was kneeling on one knee.At that moment, Cecily felt as if she and Austin were the only people left in this world.Even the roaring sounds of the five helicopters above them had disappeared from her senses."You have waited for three years, and your long-lasting love finally has an answer."Austin was very earnest, and his voice was extremely gentle.He spoke steadily, and his voice had an attractive quality to it. Cecily was enamored."I've said this before. You've used your whole life as a wager, so how could I bear to let you lose?"From today onward, I hope that you'll always be by my side!"When he said the last sentence, Austin took out the diamond ring he had already prepared early on.Under the brilliant lights, he slowly opened the box.

This scene easily trumped the various scenes preceding it.The dazzling light lit up the whole place."Sir… what are you waiting for?"Under the curtain of light, Ezra reminded Austin, who was still awestruck.Austin smiled. He hastily put the ring on Cecily's ring finger.After getting up, he pulled Cecily into his embrace. He smiled gently, saying, "From today onward, you belong only to me."Cecily watched everything play out before her eyes in fascination.Everything that had happened tonight made her feel like she was in a dream.The roar of the fighter jets combined with the various colors of light reminded her of a rainbow.She only ever dared to fantasize about such things in her dreams.She had imagined a knight in shining armor coming over to marry her while riding on a horse that trotted along a rainbow bridge.But now, it had turned into reality!Austin wasn't wearing armor, but he was wearing a suit and leather shoes.But the rainbow truly existed in front of h
