Chapter 214

• On that sunny and bright spring afternoon, Roshene looked at herself in the huge mirror of the hotel room where she was staying, she could hardly believe that the happiest day of her life had arrived. Astonished, she saw her reflection with the spectacular wedding dress on, she looked beautiful, like a fairy tale princess, it seemed like a dream, a dream that had suddenly come true.
• Smiling and lost in her thoughts, she remembered that graceful night when Maximilien had proposed to her in an unconventional way, they had just made love and he had taken her by surprise with such a request. Although she thought he was joking or not serious, at least not at that moment, she became convinced when a week later, he took her to dinner at a distinguished restaurant on the outskirts of the city and in the most romantic way possible, he asked her to marry him.
• He had everything prepared, a space for just the two of them, arranged in a sophisticated and beautiful way. With a silly excuse, he had taken her to the backyard garden of the place, led her down a path of candles and just as they reached the end of the trail, a beautiful heart made of white rose petals awaited her and on the ground, written with red petals, a huge "WILL YOU MARRY ME". She would never forget the image of him, kneeling in front of her, looking at her with those beautiful and captivating blue eyes, with that dazzling smile and a gold and diamond ring in his hands, making her the most important proposal of her existence. It was the most beautiful and sublime scene she had ever seen in her life, as she never thought he was such a romantic and seductive man, passionate yes, and strikingly so, but to be tender, thoughtful, loving, she did not expect it, without a doubt, Maximilien Barclay was a box full of surprises.
