stepped aside and said with a smile, “Come on in, Mrs. Coleman.”

Chandler's mother was nearing fifty years old. I heard from Hannah that Mrs. Coleman was well-known

for her profession of embroidery. She had a pleasing, submissive, gentle air about her.

She placed the food on the table and reminded us to fill our tummies before she left the room.

Hannah, who was starving, wolfed down a few bites of the food after changing into her cocktail gown.

Before she could finish her food, a red-faced Chandler came to the room and tugged her away for the

toasting session.

When I got out of the room, I saw Ashton leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. He must have

been waiting for me. When he saw that I had changed into a different set of clothes, he raised a brow

and asked, “Why have you changed your clothes?”

"It's not easy to walk in that dress.” I didn't want to get stepped on all night.

I was confused as he stared at me. “Were you expecting me to keep wearing that?”

He chuckled softly and didn't say anything further. Chandler, who had gotten himself a little drunk after

a few glasses of wine, blurted out, “Mr. Fuller wanted you to look beautiful...”

“That's enough. Let’s go. You haven’t eaten, so let's go get something to eat.” Ashton took my hand

and made our way out. Chandler looked stunned at being cut off in mid-sentence.

Chandler and Hannah proceeded to the first floor for toasting. Louis, together with Kiki, had their

stomach filled, and he seemed to be in a good mood today. It was obvious he had a little to drink.

He looked at me and asked, “What was it like when you got married to Mr. Fuller?”

I was taken aback for a moment before answering with a smile, "It was Grandpa who arranged it, and it

was a beautiful wedding."

Louis stared at Ashton and said, “I'll say, Mr. Fuller, should you give her a wedding? Or maybe a

wedding anniversary celebration? Isn't that what all girls want?”

Ashton chuckled and answered, “Do you have any suggestions, Uncle Louis?”

I watched them banter back and forth like children before saying with a laugh, “We’ve been married for

many years.

There's no need for another wedding.”

“You can't say that.” Louis continued, “As husband and wife, other than caring for and loving each

other, you have to spice things up a little.”

Ashton nodded with a smile and said, “You're right, Uncle Louis.” Then, he looked at me with his dark

eyes and said with a smirk, “Let's get acquainted all over again, Ms. Stovall. I'm Ashton Fuller.”

I frowned and let out a smile involuntarily. “What are you up to?”

“He's proposing to you. Can't you tell?” Louis said loudly, waving his glass of wine about for emphasis.

I was dumbfounded. Suddenly, I saw Ashton moved the chair away from him, and with a ring in his

hand, he got down on one knee.

This was completely unexpected and a little too sudden. Initially, there was a picture of Hannah and

Chandler on the stage’s big screen. But it was replaced with a photo of a young woman.

Isn't that picture taken when I first entered J University? I was only eighteen years old at that time. That

picture was taken at the entrance of J University’s library, and I was holding a book that I just borrowed

from the library.

“Some people are destined to be together at first sight." Ashton's voice resonated. “That year, you were

eighteen years old, and I had just taken over Fuller Corporation at the age of twenty-three. You were a

fresh-faced and gentle girl. You weren't my type at all, but that first sight of you was etched deep in my

mind. Joe took that photo of you unintentionally, and I've grown attached to it for many years.”

I looked back at the man who was kneeling in front of me. At that moment, my heart began to flutter.

The hall grew quiet as the guests listened to Ashton. “When I saw you for the second time, it was in the

Fullers' living room. You begged my grandfather to treat your grandmother's illness. He then asked you

if you would marry me. At that
