Chapter 1439: I Beg You to Marry Me
Thomas Fisher took full responsibility for Alice Turner disappearing without a word five years ago. Yesterday, hearing what she said, he was indeed very angry, but after the anger he thought about it a lot.
In order to reconcile with her as soon as possible, he didn’t hesitate to bring out his father, just to ensure she wouldn’t have any more worries, and to show her his determination to marry her.
"Sis! After you left five years ago, Thomas was crazily searching for you, but he could never find any clues about you." Lily Turner still understands the situation Thomas Fisher has been in these past few years. She can see that this man truly likes her sister. With such good conditions, it’s not as if he couldn’t find a girlfriend, but he’s stayed single all these years.
She hopes her sister won’t miss this devoted man and hopes her sister can be happy.
Thomas?!
Hearing Lily Turner call him Thomas, Thomas Fisher felt surprise and joy, but also fear. If his big brother heard this, he would definitely KO him.
Sophia Wood and Alice Turner had all their attention focused on what Thomas Fisher and Cedric Fisher were saying; they didn’t pay much attention to how Lily Turner addressed Thomas, especially Sophia, who paid even less attention to these details.
"Alice! During the years you were gone, Thomas was very upset. Now that you’ve returned, you two shouldn’t miss each other anymore." Sophia Wood paused, and then continued, "Life is very short; you don’t have many more five years to be wasted. You should cherish them more."
These final words were especially directed towards Alice Turner. She spoke sincerely and with heartfelt emotion.
Hearing what Sophia Wood and Lily Turner said, Alice Turner felt particularly sad. She thought that after leaving him, he would gradually forget her, but not only did he not forget, he even...
Thinking of Thomas Fisher’s situation these past few years, Alice Turner suddenly felt a pang of sorrow in her heart, but she tried her best to maintain calm on the surface.
"Alice!"
When no one else was paying attention, Thomas Fisher stood up, walked to Alice Turner, and got down on one knee. He took out the diamond ring he had prepared long ago and held it up to her, "Alice! I love you, I beg you to marry me!"
Yes, he said ’beg’, and he truly thought so in his heart, begging her to marry him.
The sudden proposal stunned everyone present.
Cedric Fisher knew they came for a marriage proposal but didn’t expect Thomas Fisher to have prepared such a move. He was really surprised, but along with the surprise, he was very comforted and happy.
"Sis! Quickly say yes to Thomas."
"Alice! Say yes to Thomas."
Sophia Wood and Lily Turner, after recovering from their shock, immediately assisted Thomas Fisher.
Being suddenly proposed to by Thomas Fisher was astonishing for Alice Turner, making her momentarily unsure of how to respond.
She looked at Sophia Wood and then at Lily Turner who was sitting beside her. Her heart started to wobble and become conflicted; both mom and sister want her to be with Thomas Fisher, so what should she do?
"Sis! Follow your heart, don’t think about all those messy things anymore. Just do what your heart feels now. You need to learn to be selfish and consider yourself more." Anthony suddenly spoke up after being silent for a long time, surprising everyone else, and making all but Alice Turner view him differently.
