Ch. 1971..1980
Chapter 1971 Chapter 1971 "No way!" Georgie Clementine exclaimed. "Henry wants to invite you and Stanley to dinner tonight at eight. We'll go to the new western restaurant on the top floor of Goldfield Plaza." Xyla Quest did a quick mental overview of her schedule, determining that she was free that night.
However, she wasn't sure if her husband, Stanley Batton, was free.
"I'm fine with that, but I'm not too sure if my husband is available," she said.
"In that case, will you please check with him? Henry is inviting Sebastian and Josh as well," Georgie told her. "He intends to gather everyone together."
"Hmm, all right."
After chatting briefly with Georgie, Xyla hung up and proceeded downstairs.
She could smell the fragrant aroma of toasts from the living room, so she followed it into the kitchen.
There, she found Stanley carefully cutting toasts, with a black apron covering over his black attire.
He looked homely yet noble.
Xyla stepped forward immediately. "Good morning, Honey."
"Good morning."
"Oh, Henry is inviting everyone to dinner tonight at eight for a get-together. Will you be available then?" she asked.
"No, I won't, but you can go on without me," he replied without hesitation.
"What will you be doing then?"
"Hmm, I can't tell you yet." He dodged her question.
Xyla was instantly curious, unable to resist asking, "Why?"
Stanley smiled but still refused to answer her question. "You'll find out soon enough."
"Fine."
Knowing her husband had no intention of telling her then, she didn't ask further.
"Dad invited us to go over for breakfast today. I'll bring these toasts over, so we can all eat tel.net together," Stanley informed her.
"Okay."
After breakfast, they both went to their respective companies to proceed with their work.
Soon enough, Xyla had forgotten about Stanley's mysterious reason he accompany her to dinner with Henry Armstrong and the others.
***
At eight o'clock that evening, Xyla arrived in front of Goldfield Plaza with Sophie Kenwick, holding hands.
Xyla didn't need her hundreds of bodyguards when she had Sophie with her, who had powerful magical abilities.
Now, they appeared to be much more low-profile than before.
The world also seemed more peaceful without being constantly surrounded, to begin with.
Somehow, this felt just right to Xyla.
Just as they prepared to enter the mall, her phone started ringing. "Xyla."
When Xyla heard Georgie's voice, she immediately stopped walking still holding Sophie's hand as she looked in Georgie's direction.
Right then, Georgie stepped out from a pink Lamborghini.
Chapter 1972 Chapter 1972 Georgie Clementine wore a white fur coat over a white turtleneck sweater and pants with a pair of white boots.
She appeared noble and pure.
Georgie walked up to the women, greeting Sophie first before gazing at Xyla.
"I have no idea what Henry is doing. He said he might be late and told me to come over first.
"He wouldn't tell me what he was tied up with when I asked, and yet he was the one who set this get-together up. But now, he ended up being late," Georgie complained while rolling her eyes and shaking her head. "Don't you think this guy is completely unreliable?"
Xyla chuckled and held her hand. "Something might have cropped up at work."
"Hmm, perhaps. Let's not talk about him, though, and go inside first" Georgie said.
She held the two ladies' hands before leading them into the mall.
The three of them made a pretty sight, attracting the attention of countless men and women. As soon as they stepped into the mall, they were stunned by what they saw inside.
The entire mall was decorated in pink, with pink balloons and pink roses scattered everywhere. Under the lights, the entire place looked like a pink, dreamy castle.
After peering around, they even saw several huge nets full of pink balloons hanging from above. "Looks like someone is about to propose here, doesn't it?" Xyla said while looking at the nets.
Georgie nodded before glancing around again. "Yeah, it does seem that way. I bet someone must have spent a fortune on this. Oh, yeah. You were right, Xyla. Henry and I are planning on getting married." Georgie couldn't hide the joy in her voice.
Meanwhile, other customers in the mall were also paying attention to all this.
People started commenting on it— "Some rich guy is going to propose here, isn't he? Woah, it's so romantic."
"I wonder who the lucky girl is."
"Exactly, I'm so envious! I bet the flowers must have cost a fortune, too."
"I'm sure it must have cost a lot. It is Goldfield Plaza we're talking about."
"That's right. Look at all this. How many roses and balloons are there? I'm è those alone already cost a fortune." Content belong here!

Georgie couldn't resist sighing. "It sure is romantic."

Xyla nodded in agreement.
Sophie was busy taking in the sights, not paying enough attention to participation in the conversation.
She was also very curious about who the lucky girl was.
At that moment, the nets were released suddenly, resulting in countless pink balloons falling from above.
It looked like a romantic rain of pink balloons in the mall.
The three women were all stunned, not prepared for this at all.
Georgie looked at the balloons a look in her eyes.

Georgie noticed the words 'Marry Me' printed on the balloons. "Marry me."
Chapter 1973 Chapter 1973 At that moment, Georgie Clementine thought the guy who did all this to be even more romantic.
She couldn't help but look around for the lucky girl when everyone suddenly started screaming- "Ahh! It's so romantic!"
"I'm going to die. Ladies, this is way too romantic."
"Ahh!"
Her eyes instantly darted around, following everyone's gaze before looking up toward countless pink banners hanging on the railings on the top floor.
The vertical banners were long enough to reach the ground from the top floor, covering an entire section on the first floor.
Huge bold words were printed in white on each banner- "Georgie Clementine, I love you!"
"Georgie Clementine, let's get married."
"Georgie Clementine, I only want to be with you for the rest of our lives."
"Georgie Clementine, you're all I see."
"Georgie Clementine, I'll be loyal to you for life."
"Georgie Clementine, marry me. Everything I own is yours."
"Georgie Clementine, I want to be with you forever."
"Georgie Clementine, let's grow old together."
"Georgie Clementine, I'll be a loyal husband. You can hit and yell at me, but I'll still protect you if anyone wants to bully you."
Under each banner, there were various photos of Georgie and Henry taken during their daily lives.
In those pictures, they were always smiling joyfully.
At this moment, everyone was screaming- "Ahh! Ahh!"
"Say yes! Say yes!"
"Ahh! Ahh!"
"Other ladies' boyfriends have never disappointed me."
"This is what a romantic proposal looks like!"
The loud screaming and beautiful sight before Georgie suddenly made her feel uncertain how to react.
She would never have guessed that the romantic proposal was planned for her.
At first, she bearught she would only to the romantic proposal, but all of a sudden, she had become the female protagonist in this real-life fairytale.
Her eyes filled with tears without her realizing it, tears rolling down her cheeks.
Henry was such an annoying guy, not leaving her with any hints.

Beside her, Xyla Quest and Sophie Kenwick were also teary-eyed.
However, Xyla wasn't surprised by any of this.
After all, Georgie and Henry did look like they were about to get married soon.
Chapter 1974 Chapter 1974 Henry Armstrong was clearly very serious about marrying Georgie Clementine.
"I'm truly happy for you. Henry genuinely means it. Georgie, say yes," Xyla Quest told her.
Georgie could not speak. Instead, she continued to dart her eyes at everything around her in tears.
Right then, the mall plunged into darkness.
Everyone started muttering, all curious about why the lights went out.
Then, a warm yellow spotlight shone down from the top floor, directed solely on Georgie.
The light illuminated her in her white outfit, making her shine brightly and stand out amidst the darkness.
Georgie was deeply confused by all this.
What was Henry up to?
Meanwhile, Xyla Quest, Sophie Kenwick, and everyone around them was curious about what would happen next. Momentarily, another spotlight lit up the railing on the top floor across from Georgie, shining on Henry this time. Everyone could only see the two of them as everything else was pitch black.
Henry, clad in a black tuxedo and a white shirt, was holding a microphone and a bouquet of pink roses while he gazed down at Georgie. "Honey, we've been together for a while now. As I got to know you better, my love for you grew more intensely.
"You're a wonderful woman. I constantly think about starting a family with you. Honestly, I've wanted to marry you ever since we first started dating, but I knew you wouldn't agree then.
"It's why I waited this long, but today, I want to let the entire world know that I, Henry Armstrong, am deeply in love with you, Georgie Clementine. I want to protect you for the rest of my life.
"I'll do anything to keep you safe and sheltered for the rest of our lives. Will you marry me?"
By then, Georgie was so overcome with emotions that she didn't even know what to say.
Xyla and Sophie, who stood next to her, were equally stunned.
Meanwhile, the people around them couldn't resist talking out loud— "Marry him, marry him."
"He's such a good man. That was a touching proposal."
"Marry him! Marry him!"
Right then Henry began walking down then e steps with the t in his hand, the overhead.

Soon, everyone behind Henry also came into sight.
It was then that Stanley Batton, Josh Batton, Sebastian Brenand, Garve Rachel Wood, and Cates made their presencabeth The men were handsome in tuxedos, whereas the women seemed elegant in gowns.
It looked like a scene straight out of an idol drama.
They quietly followed Henry into the elevator.
When their faces became visibly clearer, the entire mall erupted into madness- "Ahh! It's Josh Batton! Josh Batton, my idol! My idol is here to help with the proposal, too!"
"Isn't that Stanley next to Josh? Stanley is here too? This proposal is so grand!"
"Josh's wife is here too. Who are those people next to them?"
"Doesn't matter who they are, but they look like prominent people net the way they are dressed." belongs to FindNovel.net s to en.swnovet "Oh my god! I can't breathe! I'm way too excited!"
Chapter 1975 Chapter 1975 Henry Armstrong stepped out of the elevator like a superhero, striding step by step through the crowd with his friends behind him until he eventually arrived in front of Georgie Clementine. The surroundings were completely silent, everyone holding their breaths in anticipation of a romantic scene.
Georgie's heart couldn't stop racing, she even forgot to breathe.
After letting out her breath in a long exhalation, she continued to gaze at Henry through her blurry tears, unable to utter a single word.
It was such a magical scene, one she wasn't sure if caused by the lighting effects or that her dreams were about to come true with this man in front of her who seemed utterly charming at this moment. Georgie only thought of growing old with him.
No matter what he asked, she would say yes.
"Georgie, will you marry me?" Henry asked before reaching into his pocket to retrieve an intricate velvet box.
Then, he opened it and went down on one knee.
There was a ten-carat, tear-shaped diamond ring in the box.
Under the lights, the perfectly cut diamond glistened brightly, enchanting everyone within sight.
Everyone gasped.
They couldn't help but exclaim yet again— "Marry him, marry him!"
"Marry him, marry him!"
What was Georgie waiting for?
She took another deep breath before slowly lifting her hand to reach out to Henry. She nodded slightly.
When Henry saw this, he immediately felt relieved.
He had put a lot of thought into this before preparing for the proposal.
Georgie was a career-driven businesswoman.
He was genuinely worried that she might put off getting married because of her career.
She could have rejected him for this very reason.
He was frantic with joy as soon as he saw Georgie nodding, so he impatiently slipped the ring on her.
After that, he hastily stood up and handed the bouquet to his new fiancee, hugging her in excitement. He wished their bodies could fuse into one.
"Really? Did you say yes? Thank you!"
Georgie was crying and laughing at the same time. She nodded. "Yes!"
Henry quickly pulled away from her and placed his hands on her shoulders. "I promise I'll always be good to you. I'll treat you like a princess. As long as you don't cheat on me, I'll forgive you no don what you do.
"I'll provide you whatever you want from now on. I'll do my best to give I you these you dream of. I love you, Georgie Clementine," Henry declared.
With that, he stepped forward and moved closer to his future wife, kissing away her tears one drop at a time.
Finally, his lips landed on hers, and they began to kiss in earnest.
Xyla blushed at the sight, smiling as she held onto Sophie's hand and led her away toward Stanley.
He instantly hugged the two of them as they came within reach.
The people around them started shrieking again- "Ahh, I'm about to die! I'm only here to shop. Why must I see all these?"
"Stanley and Josh are just too handsome, aren't they?"
"The man who proposed and the two others, whose names I don't know, are also very handsome."
"Georgie is the CEO of X Entertainment, isn't she? She's so lucky. I'm truly jealous."
Chapter 1976 Chapter 1976 "Look at all the wealthy friends he has. Ahh, doesn't Josh look so good up close?"
"Isn't Stanley good-looking? And so is the man who proposed. He's handsome, too. Ahh, they're all so fine." Everybody was muttering around them again, but Georgie Clementine and Henry Armstrong paid no heed. They were still kissing each other passionately.
At that moment, a lot of memories from their past began replaying in Georgie's mind.
She recalled the first time she met Henry in a bar when he asked her out.
And now, finally, they had arrived at this point.
Every scene gave her a mix of emotions.
Sometimes, life was mysterious like that.
One might think they'd never get together with someone, but they'd still end up being together in the end.
Henry reluctantly let go of Georgie, ending their passionate kiss a moment later. He held her close, kissing her forehead repeatedly.
In the meantime, some people took pictures while others were still talking.
The entire world was abuzz.
When Xyla Quest saw how happy they were, she naturally leaned against Stanley Batton and chuckled. "I'm very happy for Georgie."
Georgie was her best friend. Xyla couldn't be happier to see that she had finally found the right guy.
Stanley didn't reply, but he looked over at the blissful couple with a soft look in his eyes.
He was also very happy for them.
"Let's head upstairs to eat," Henry gazed at his betrothed and said. "A romantic dinner awaits." Georgie nodded.
When the people around them saw that they were leaving, they immediately surrounded the group.
Some wanted to take pictures with Josh Batton, Xyla, and Stanley, while others asked for their autographs.
After meeting some requests, the velnet mall security stepped forward to surround Xyla and the others, escorting them to the top floor while everyone else watched.
The top floor was completely off-limits to anyone outside their party, so those who followed them upstairs couldn't get inside.
Helpless and disappointed, they had no choice but to leave.
Everyone in the mall was still talking excitedly despite the absence of Xyla and the rest of their group- "After witnessing all this today, I feel like I should get a boyfriend."
"I'm curious about the man who proposed. He seems wealthy."
"Duh! If he is friends with Stanley, and the Battons would even show up to help him with the proposal, how could he not be from a prominent family?"
"I guess he's probably one of the upper-class folks. Ordinary people can't even get close to people like him."
"Sigh, other people's romance never fails to make me feel disappointed with my current situation."
The women were all feeling wildly jealous.
Soon, this incident also made it onto the first spot on Weibo's list of hote #A grand proposal in.
tolaza#'.
Netizens also began discussing it in excitement, making it the top trending news on Weibo.
Chapter 1977 Chapter 1977 On Weibo, netizens began a heated discussion- "I was in Goldfield Plaza and personally witnessed the entire proposal. I even have a video as proof. Look, everyone."
"A wealthy man proposed to X Entertainment's CEO, Georgie Clementine. Moreover, this man is a close friend of Josh and Stanley Batton. Their wives were also there at the time!" "I'm always impressed with other people's proposals. I'm jealous."
"Ahh, Georgie is a true winner in life. Why is she still working as X Entertainment's CEO when she could stay at home as a housewife."
"Am I the only one who noticed that the watch he's wearing costs fifty million? It's a globally limited-edition watch, too. Who exactly is this person?"
"Look at her ring. It looks super expensive. That's the real deal. I'm so envious I could cry."
"The proposal, the ring, and her boyfriend. I'm extremely jealous."
They were all envious.
At the same time, marketing accounts were taking advantage of the proposal to gain popularity.
Georgie Clementine became the center of attention in the country because of the marriage proposal.
Meanwhile, the recently betrothed couple was with their closest friends, drinking and celebrating in a private room at a western restaurant.
Henry ended up drinking a lot as he was in a great mood that night.
After toasting thrice, he finally stopped drinking and hugged Georgie. "Honey, when do you want to get married to me?"
"I would prefer to have the wedding when it's warm. Furthermore, it should be before Xyla delivers the baby or after she's recovered," Georgie said.
Her greatest wish was for Xyla Quest to be a part of her wedding ceremony. She was fine if others couldn't come, but Xyla had to be there.
"Yeah, of course. I know how important Xyla is to you," Henry immediately agreed.
He then shifted his gaze to Xyla. "We'll have the wedding before you deliver your baby. I can't wait too long, so I'll get an astrologer to check the best date." Georgie resisted when she heard him. "You know I don't believe in superstitions."
"I didn't believe in them in the past either, but I read something on the internet yesterday. People say that bad luck might befall those who get married on an inauspicious day.
"It's better to be safe than sorry when it comes to these matters. After all, I don't want to risk anything when it comes to you. I want to be with you forever," Henry said carefully.
It was clear how much he cared about her that he didn't want to risk their relationship being affected in any way.
Georgie felt her heart warming at his words.
Waving her hand casually, she said, "If that's what you believe, then go ahead. Do what you need to do and decide on a date. Just let me know after that."
He instantly nodded. "Since you've agreed, I'll go to an astrologer tomorrow. We still need to order our wedding outfits, prepare a house and a car."
"A wedding can be rather complicated. On top of that, we also need to send out invitations and prepare gifts for our guests.
"Also, I must not forget about a betrothal gift for your parents, though I have yet to meet them. We should plan to meet them soon," he went on and on. Although he could be flamboyant at times, he seemed to take this matter seriously.
He had even thought about the tiny details that Georgie might not even pay attention to.
"How have you planned so much already?" she asked in disbelief.
Henry chuckled. "Ever since I have decided to be with you, I've been- thinking about these things every day. That's why I ended up. overthinking without realizing it. en.swhovels.net "Also, where do you want to buy our house?" he added as an afterthought.
"Don't we already have a house?" she asked.
"I think we should buy a new house after we get married. How about this? I'll bring you around to have a look at a few, and we'll decide then," Henry told her. Georgie nodded. "Okay, that's up to you."
"On top of that, I plan to give your parents thirty million as my betrothal gift. What do you think?" he asked casually.
"Thirty million? Isn't that a little too much?" she exclaimed.
"No, that's not a lot. They have raised such a wonderful daughter. Thirty million is hardly enough to show my appreciation to my future parents-in-law. Without them, él wouldn't have been able to marry such a great wife," he said with much sincerity.
Georgie couldn't help but feel moved when she heard this.
When she first met Henry, she never expected he would become such a doting husband.
"Okay, do as you wish. I won't interfere with your decisions," she agreed.
Anyway, knowing Henry's personality, he would find a way to do what he wanted no matter what.
He would insist despite her objections, especially when it came to things like this.
"Okay, great. I'll do as I see fit then."
Xyla felt even happier when she saw how loving these two were.
She rested her chin against one hand and gazed at her best friend "Georgie, I know that you're going to be very happy. Also, I believe your parents will be pleased that you found a boyfriend like him.
"Ahem, I'm her fiance now," Henry pointed out proudly.
Xyla instantly nodded and teased, "Okay, fiance it is. I'm sorry for messing that up. Please forgive me, Mr. Armstrong."
He laughed when he heard her. "Please remember that I'm her fiance from now on."
He seemed thrilled when he mentioned the word 'fiance' as if the change in status was as valuable as being the President of a country. Georgie couldn't resist laughing when she saw how giddy he seemed.
There was no doubt in her mind that she could spend the rest of her life happily with him, as confident as she felt about their relationship. She was sure they would stay together forever.
Beep, beep, beep.
Right on cue, her phone started ringing.
When Georgie saw that her mother was calling, she promptly stepped outside to pick up the call.
She knew exactly why her mother was calling.
Chapter 1978 Chapter 1978 Georgie Clementine's mother must have seen the news or the hot topic on Weibo.
"Georgie, I've seen what happened on the news. Your boyfriend proposed, and you said yes!"
Her mother sounded joyful at the news. She was aware that her daughter was dating and what he did for a living.
She always hoped that the two of them would end up getting married. She simply didn't expect it to happen so soon. Admittedly, she had never met Henry Armstrong, but she had faith in her daughter's judgment.
The man Georgie fell in love with certainly had to be good enough for her.
Georgie never made her family worry about her. Since she was a child, all her decisions were wise and correct.
Most importantly, Henry's family background was better than they could ever hope for.
Georgie couldn't afford to let this opportunity slip by.
Georgie immediately chuckled upon hearing her mother's excited tone. "Yeah, I'll bring him home next time. But Mom, aren't you upset that I agreed to marry him without discussing with you first?"
She was somewhat surprised as she thought her mother would disagree since she had never brought Henry home to meet them and now, she was suddenly engaged.
However, to her surprise, her mother wasn't upset at all.
She was even supportive of it.
Georgie's mother chuckled. "Why would I be upset? Didn't you say yourself that he's a good guy, and you like him a lot? I trust your judgment. You've always made the right decisions since you were a kid." "Moreover, Henry is so much better than the men our neighbors introduced to you," her mother added.
Georgie laughed when she heard this. "In that case, I will definitely bring him home to see you soon."
"Okay, I'll be waiting. When are you coming home?"
"Let's see, perhaps in a day or two," Georgie replied.
"Okay, let me know before, and I'll whip something up."
"Okay, I will," Georgie felt her heart do a happy dance. She stayed toet chat with her mother for a while before returning to the room where everyone had started to eat.
belongs to en.swnovele There was a joyful and peaceful ambiance in the room as the group chatted, with couples sitting together in pairs.
There was love in the air.
"Ugh-"
Georgie suddenly felt nauseous after taking a step forward.
'What's going on? Did I drink too much earlier? Am I drunk? Or did I eat too much steak?' After noticing her reaction, Henry quickly stood up and approached her with a look of concern on his face. "What's the matter?"
Georgie started feeling nauseous again as she spoke.
"Ugh, I don't know. I feel nauseous all of a sudden."
Soon, Georgie began retching.
Covering her mouth, she ran into the bathroom, kneeling in front of the toilet bowl.
She retched repeatedly, but nothing came out.
Henry followed closely behind, falling to his knees beside her, and gently rubbed her back. "What's.1 wrong? Did you eat something that wasn't fresh?"
Georgie shook her head as she retched again. "Ugh, no. I didn't eat anything else apart from what we had during dinner."
"Something must have been wrong with the food then. That doesn't make sense. It shouldn't have caused a reaction so soon. Besides, the rest of us are all fine. Could it be?"

Chapter 1980 Chapter 1980 "Does it feel like it's getting worse? Honey, I'm so sorry, it's all my fault. I was spinning around too much," Henry Armstrong said apologetically. At this point, he felt a little panicked.
Turning to look at Xyla Quest, he said helplessly, "Xyla, please think of something, quick. She's dry-heaving even harder now. Also, I was spinning her around too much. Would that affect her and our baby's health?"
Xyla could tell how much he cared about Georgie and the baby from his nervous reaction.
She shook her head. "She's fine, don't worry. It'll get better shortly."
"Really? Do I need to call the ambulance?" he asked anxiously.
Xyla was speechless. So were the rest of their group.
Georgie Clementine couldn't resist rolling her eyes at him. "Ugh, Henry, can you not overreact?"
Henry scratched his head. "Oh, I was just worried about you."
Georgie was out of breath, heaving again while she spoke. "I'm fine. Wait for me outside, all of you. I'll be fine in a bit."
Henry shook his head, intending to stay. "No."
She chose to ignore him as she continued to dry-heave violently into the toilet bowl, yet nothing came out.
It felt even worse than actual vomiting.
"It'll get stuffy in here if we all stay, "Xyla spoke up. "Henry will stay with her while the rest of us should return to the room."
The others nodded before they followed her instructions.
Once they had all left, Georgie's retching continued.
At that point, Henry gradually lost his excitement about her pregnancy upon seeing her suffer so badly.
He felt sorry and guilty because he knew being pregnant wasn't easy for women.
"I'm sorry, Honey, for making you suffer." Henry continued to rub her back.
Raising three of his fingers, he made a vow.
for the promise I'll be good to you my life. I will bythemise I'll be good toy by lightning if I don't treat you well."
Georgie had to suffer so much to carry his child. He vowed to be even nicer to her.
From now on, he would love her and protect her.
As he spoke, she felt touched by his words.
Soon, the nauseous sensation in her stomach gradually subsided, and she recovered to her normal state. Standing up slowly, she fixed her gaze at him. "You didn't have to worry so much. I was only retching."
Georgie knew her future husband well enough to understand why he would suddenly make such an oath.
Henry immediately stood up and held her hand. "What do you mean by 'only retching'? That didn't seem normal at all."
Georgie blinked, staring at Henry as if she was concerned with his mental health. "Isn't this normat for a pregnant woman? It's not a big deal. I'll be fine in a while."
"That may be a common occurrence during I awfuegnancy, but I know h feels. Other men think it's a big deal, but do t "I feel bad even if it only happens for a short while," he added.
