As she gazed in awe, the swirl of stars on the floor suddenly dissipated, replaced by a sea of roses.
The vanished starry cloud had reappeared overhead at lightning speed.
As she looked up at the nebula, the walls surrounding Eleaber Hall suddenly erupted in green auroras.
Eleanor was taken aback. These were man-made northern lights.
He had remembered her desire to see the northern lights; he had never forgotten.
He wanted to create a personal aurora for her—her aurora show—to watch as long as she wished.
She understood Bernard's intent and felt sweetness washing over her.
She felt like she was drowning in honey and found herself tear-stricken without realizing it.
She stood there, watching the world come alive. A man in a white suit was walking towards her amidst the auroras.
A soft glow surrounded him, making him look like a god descending from the heavens, so majestic and aloof that he was nearly untouchable.
Yet this perfect man was willing to stay grounded for her for a whole decade, with all his heart, only for her.
Eleanor watched Bernard, the man walking towards her, Her vision was blurred by tears, but she kept a soft smile.
Bernard dropped to one knee without hesitation.
He held out the diamond ring box in his hand.
"Eleanor."
He called her gently. His eyes, as beautiful as snow, looked at her face with deep devotion.
Even the experienced Bernard was feeling a bit nervous at this moment.
"Eleanor, will you marry me?"
No vow could be more important than the words "Will you marry me".
Eleanor lowered her head, glanced at the sparkling diamond ring, and then at the man proposing to her.
She had been waiting for his proposal for many years, and apart from being moved, she felt a sense of a dream come true.
She looked at Bernard, who was anxiously waiting for her answer, the tears in her eyes replaced by a smile.
She tilted her head teasingly and asked, "Is that it?"
Is that it?
Bernard frowned. He had studied the proposal process many times, but he had no idea what to do next.
