Chapter 313 Let Me Have the Opportunity to Love You Openly
'Proposal?'
"What did you just say?"
Emilia's eyes widened, thinking she must have misheard.
Or maybe geniuses just have a different way of thinking?
George looked at Emilia with an earnest expression.
"I thought about it seriously on my way here. I want to be with you! I want us to be together forever, like my parents."
Originally, George had planned to confess his feelings.
But somehow, Brandon and Aurora found out about it.
Most likely, Juniper, who was helping George plan, leaked the information!
Brandon misunderstood, thinking George was planning to propose...
Brandon called George, giving him serious advice and telling him to treat Emilia well.
The more George listened, the more he felt something was off. After explaining to Brandon, the father and son decided to go straight to proposing...
"Dr. Windsor, are you serious?"
"Of course! I like you, and I want to be with you every day!"
Emilia looked at George, who was standing in front of her with a serious expression.
George's white suit made him look somewhat similar to when he wore his white lab coat.
His handsome face, with a hint of mystery in his eyes, gave off a vibe reminiscent of a medieval vampire knight.
"Dr. Windsor, I still think you might not have thought this through?"
Emilia found it unbelievable!
Whether it was George liking her or him choosing to propose directly, it shocked Emilia. Could it be that George was under too much work pressure and had gone crazy?
"I've thought it through clearly! I know I'm not very smart and don't know how to pursue a girl, but every time I see you, I feel very happy!"
George didn't know how to describe his feelings.
It was like a barren land suddenly blooming with its first flower!
When he secretly saved Emilia's photos and looked at them after surgery, he couldn't help but smile without realizing it.
He walked around Blade of Dusk every day after work, not knowing what he wanted, until he saw Emilia. And, when he saw Alexander taking Catherine out on a date, his first reaction wasn't that Catherine was taken, but wondering if Emilia would like the place they were going.
From those moments, George realized he was completely captivated!
"Emilia, do you like me? Would you marry me and join my family? My mom and Catherine both really like you!"
Emilia felt nervous and at a loss.
"But this is all so sudden... and I'm still young, not ready for marriage..."
"That's okay. You can grow up after marrying me, and even if you don't, it's fine. I'll take care of everything you need."
Emilia's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
"Dr. Windsor, I kind of want to say yes, but... I have to refuse."
"You know my family situation. I have no confidence in marriage. Maybe marriage isn't right for me. You should find someone else..."
George's eyes showed a hint of disappointment but quickly cleared.
He smiled, "It's okay to refuse my proposal. Just make it up to me by being my girlfriend."
"...What?"
Hadn't she already refused? How could George still be confessing?
"Be my girlfriend. You don't need to think about marriage. I want to marry you because I want to share everything with you—money, family, and lots of love, mine and my family's. They will all love you."
"Emilia, from the first day we met, I've been fascinated by you. So please give me a chance to love you openly, can you?"
All Emilia ever wanted was love!
Her eyes became a bit moist as she looked at George.
"Are you sure it's me?"
"It's you, only you, it can only be you!"
"But I... I'm not as pretty as I used to be, and I have no family."
George smiled gently, "I'm your attending physician. Your injuries will heal, and even if they don't, I don't mind! As for family, my family is your family."
Facing such a determined gaze, Emilia's heart wavered.
She had never been chosen so firmly by anyone!
Maybe from the beginning, all she wanted was someone to love her steadfastly, but she never expected it from the Hughes family or any stranger.
But now... it seemed she had it.
Emilia smiled softly.
"Alright, I accept."
If someone chose her firmly, she could be brave for love once!
George was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what Emilia had said. He stood up and hugged her, spinning her around several times!
Juniper, hiding behind a nearby tree, pulled Catherine closer.
Juniper was determined not to miss such a big moment!
No way she was leaving now; when else would she see such an interesting scene?
Juniper wondered, "Did it work? Why isn't George kissing her?"
"I guess George doesn't know how."
George was a bit clueless.
Besides hugging Emilia and dancing around, he had no idea what else to do.
Even the onlookers could feel the intense happiness radiating from George and Emilia!
Juniper happily live-streamed the whole thing to the Windsor family.
Brandon: "Your mom and I bought the earliest flight back!"
Aurora: "I knew we shouldn't have thrown away that honeymoon brochure!"
Richard: "How did George move so fast? I told you he liked Emilia!"
...
The Windsor Mansion.
In Catherine's room, a mini-computer was assembled and placed in front of her. It was only palm-sized but had all the necessary and unnecessary functions.
Catherine inserted the USB drive she was holding.
A password prompt appeared on the screen.
Catherine frowned slightly. She hadn't set a password program when she made it.
It must have been Elodie who set it.
Catherine tried entering her own birthday, but it showed an incorrect password.
Frowning, she thought for a moment and entered the birthday Elodie used to celebrate with her, a date only she and her grandmother knew!
The USB drive successfully opened.
A video appeared on the screen.
Elodie looked at the screen gently, as if she were looking at Catherine through it, her eyes soft and a kind smile on her lips.
"Catherine, this video is only for you."
"I miss you, and I want to say, I'm sorry!"
