Chapter 1018 Extra Story 156 Of Aaron The End

Today, he had asked her the same question again. Then he gave her the answer to the question she had been dreading over for the past several days.

"Ximena..." Aaron chuckled to himself, "This place is going to be named 'Love Coast' because this is where Brian and Molly got married and this place will also be remembered as the place where I proposed to you. Molly once told me that if a man took a woman to see firefly squids, the woman had to marry him!" Aaron didn't leave anything to chance. At the end of his wits, he even went as far as changing the temperature of the seawater to attract the firefly squids to come to shore, so he could make sure she wouldn't refuse his proposal. "Ximena Mo, will you marry me?" he asked with a palpitating heart.

Ximena was at a loss for words. Her eyes were shining with unshed tears that were begging to be released.

Aaron had finally perfected what he was going to say, and he was waiting on pins and needles for a chance to put all his worries to rest. He loved Ximena for being different from most women. The long years of hardship she had endured in life had made her a strong and resilient person. However, only those who knew her well would know that under all that hard exterior was also a heart that was fragile enough to be broken with just one touch.

"Ximena, you're not going to say no, right? Tell me that you won't do that to me." Aaron turned to an imploring tone, trying every trick that Molly had taught him, even though he wasn't sure of their effects. "If you don't say yes, tomorrow I will be the laughing stock in all of QY Island. Perhaps even in the entire world!"

"Huh?" Ximena didn't know what he meant by that. Puzzled, she just looked at him with blurry eyes.

Aaron looked around and all of a sudden deep rumbling noises cut the silence in half in almost an instant. Ximena turned her head to follow the noise only to find no less than one hundred people come out into the op

“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.

“Marry into a family with tens of billions of assets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagement. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlement,” said Rachel Ruan.

Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagement a hundred years ago...

"Okay! Sure, it was intentional."

"You... ..." Before she knew it, Aaron cut her pretentious speech short with a passionate kiss. The blue glow from the firefly squids, the blinking stars above and the continuous flashing of camera lights, all bore witness to the love between the two lovers, who had loved each other for many years now but hadn't committed themselves to each other until now.

"Aaron, this is the happiest moment of my life. I am glad to have finally gathered the courage to confess my feelings to my Mr. Right. Thanks for tolerating my bad habits and for loving me for who I am!"

"I promise that I will be with you through thick and thin. I love you, Ximena, and I will keep loving you until my last breath!"

All of a sudden, fireworks exploded above, vivid colors igniting the otherwise black sky, immortalizing their vows to each other. Aaron was less interested in the display than in watching Ximena's expressions and how they lit up her face just as she smiled, like a perfect real life photograph.

'Ximena, I love you. I will love with all my heart. Now I have only one wish in my life. I pray that I don't die before you because I don't want you to feel sad for me. If possible, I would rather take all the sadness and loneliness that belong to us upon myself!'
