CHAPTER 49

“So because I said I can’t marry you? So you are thinking of marrying my sister?!” Champion came out from nowhere and was furious.

“What?! No! It’s not what you think Champion, we just talked about you... I would never steal your boyfriend…” Victoria explained

“So what?!” Champion walked out and Sewon rushed to him and grabbed his hands

“Champion!”

“What?!!”

“Even if you won’t marry me, or if you leave me while doing something else, I will still be with you… I will be selfless if it’s you… I can’t give you everything but I can give you my loyalty, trust, and my love… I can’t promise you the world, riches, and everything, just me and my time for you and only you… and my body if you wanted to…” Sewon said honestly and sincerely,

“You such a cutie… I can’t be even mad at you for so long, and what you said was heart-warming, and I could feel your sincerity even if you are drunk… I love you and will you marry me?” Champion said out of the blue

“You… what have you said? Marry you?!” Sewon asked again

“Yeah… I said Marry me” Champion repeated it

“No… I should be the one to ask you, will you marry me Champion Ueiss?” and with that, Sewon kneeled with one knee and opened the little box with a ring

Champion’s expression changes from shock to happy to surprised

“Yes I do…” and with that, Sewon put the ring on Champion’s finger

“Even if you said no I would still make you wear this ring and we will continue our relationship…” Sewon said

“You would do that?”

“Of course, I said I would be selfless when it comes to you, but you didn’t listen…”

“I did… but your proposal is indeed better… now let’s go and enjoy this night…” Champion grabbed Sewon and went to a cottage.

Victoria was left alone and continued to drink the beer left in the bucket,

“Why are you drinking alone?” Someone from behind asks

“Well, I just want to be alone,” Victoria said

“Oh sorry, I should leave you…”

“No! It’s fine…” Victoria said

“I’m Collin… you must be a family member of the Ueiss,” Collin said

“How did you know?” Victoria was surprised

“Well first of all you have a green shade of hair and you went in with a chopper of the Ueiss… and I have seen your vlog before… I’m a fan…” Collin admitted

“Cute…” and Victoria peck on Collin’s cheek.

ON THE MEANTIME

“Zoey, it's Dernier’s birthday isn’t it?” Zephia asked

“Yes it is his 14th birthday” Zoey replied while reading a book by Sherlock Holmes

“Well, do you want to buy him a gift?” Zephia asked

“I don’t know what to give him he probably forgotten about me already,” Zoey said depressingly

“There you go again, thinking like that doesn’t do you good, you are still 6 years old and you always think like a grown-up,” Zephia said while staring seriously

“No, I’m not…” Zoey said disagreeing with her mom

“You are reading a Sherlock Holmes book and you also join a Math-Science camp and still you deny it? You never told me why you want to learn so many kinds of stuff even if you are young?”

“I just want you to be proud of me, that you won’t regret that you adopted me and so as I want Daddy Evan to be proud of me as well and so as Miss T” Zoey said

“You don’t have to do that, we are proud of you so much more than you know,” Zephia said as she hugged Zoey.

“Don’t prove to us something that you think it will make us proud, be yourself and be happy and do what you love also be grateful for everything that would make you who you are, that will make us even more proud…” Zephia added

Zoey smiled and hugged her mom tightly,

“I love you, Mom,” Zoey said

“I love you too sweetie…, now let’s go eat some cake”

Zephia didn’t know that Zoey already kept gifts for Dernier.

AT THE ZEIRELLE KINGDOM

“Dad, do you think my grandparents on my mother's side are aware of my existence?” Cris asks out of the blue

“Yeah, they know but they are not interested in you, I mean they tried horrible things on you after you were born, I kept you away from them without saying goodbye to your mom, I haven’t visited her tomb, because no one told me… I was young and naïve and I didn’t know what to do, I was taking care of Dominic at that time while taking care of you, and I was also going to school… I had not met Fiona I don’t know what to do… I thought of sending you to the orphanage but it gave me second thoughts that if I left you there, I would be haunted… so I kept you, 'cause you are the reason why I do my best every day… to be a great father to you…” Evan said

“You are the best dad in the whole wide world *sniff* I love you, dad…” Cris can’t help but cry, even when he was little he thought his dad was always busy, and to add all those times he almost lost his father.

“I love you too” Evan replied
