The ferris wheel gradually landed on the ground.
A crowd appeared as the cabin door was opened.
Cherie turned around to look outside. Huntley, Whitney, and Hector were all present.
Boyle took out a black velvet box from his pocket. He opened it and held it in front of her.
“Cherie, will you marry me and become my wife forever? I promise you that we will never divorce.”
From the outside, Huntley lead the crowd to cheer.
“Marry him! Marry him! Marry him!”
Cherie looked at the man who was kneeling in front of her with a silly expression. A smile finally crept across her face. She held out her hand and said, “Yes.”
Boyle helped her put the ring on her finger. The size was perfect.
He held her hand, lowered his head, and pressed a kiss on her ring finger with the diamond ring on.
Then, he carried her out of the ferris wheel accompanied by the cheers of the crowd.
Huntley even prepared confetti for them. He popped the confetti spray at them.
Whitney asked, “Did you guys take a video on the ferris wheel? I want to see the whole proposal!”
Of course, Boyle was well prepared. He planned the proposal beforehand and set up a camera inside the ferris wheel.
Boyle tossed the DSLR to Whitney.
Whitney burst into tears as she watched the video.
Huntley scolded her, “You’re such a loser! Cher is the one who was proposed to but she’s not even crying! Why didn’t you cry when I proposed to you?”
Whitney wiped her tears away with his sleeve and said, “It’s different! This is so touching!”
…
Not long after, they went back to Greentown Condominium. Boyle was helping Cherie dry her hair after she came out of the shower.
Cherie leaned into his embrace. She removed the ring from her finger, held it up, and observed it under the light. She saw the tiny words ‘Love forever.mo’ carved inside the ring.
The writing looked very elegant. It looked similar to Boyle’s writing.
“Did you write this?”
Boyle smiled and said, “You can put it that way. The designer carved the words on the ring based on my writing.”
Boyle was stunned. He held her fidgeting hands and looked at her in embarrassment. “We don’t have condoms.”
They did not come back to Greentown Condominium often. Moreover, he did not expect Cherie to make such a request.
After finding out that she was ill, he never thought of touching her although he missed her body.
He could hold back his desires and he would never force her to do it if she did not want it.
He could not bear hurting her.
Boyle kissed her forehead and said, “Let’s wait until we get back to North City tomorrow, alright?”
Cherie looked kind of exhausted. She snuggled deeper into his embrace and simply let out a hum.
Boyle patted her back gently.
He knew she simply wanted to feel his presence instead of fulfilling her desires. Hence, he hugged her even tighter and kissed her for a very long time.
In the end, she fell asleep, yet he was burning with lust.
However, he could not control himself in front of her.
