Chapter 1303:
Obviously, this proposal had been carefully planned, down to the finest detail.
Allison blinked, her gaze sweeping over the familiar faces in the room. Her entire family was thereâeven Rebecca and Ferdinand. So they had all been in on it. They had worked with Kellan to orchestrate this moment in advance.
âAllison, hold on to true love.â Rebecca winked at her playfully. âThe two of you have been through so much, and your love only runs deeper because of it.â
After learning what had happened, Rebecca had rushed to the hospital to take care of Allison. At first, she had wrongly assumed that Kellan was responsible for Allisonâs injuries. But once the truth came to light, she realized just how much these two had endured together. They werenât just in loveâthey were willing to risk their lives for each other. And if that wasnât true love, what was?
The others looked on with warm smiles. They were ready to support Allison no matter what she decided. She lowered her gaze to Kellan.
âAre you sure you want to marry me?â
âI am sure.â Kellan lifted the diamond ring. âMy love for you will last forever.â
The large diamond sparkled, its delicate rose-cut design a symbol of an unbreakable bond.
Allisonâs thoughts drifted to their pastâtheir first meeting, the way they had fallen for each other, the hardships they had faced, the moments where life and death had hung in the balance, andâ¦
They had come so far. They had never been defeated by fateâs tricks. A soft smile touched her lips as she extended her hand. It was the promise of their future after their reunion.
For once, Kellanâalways so composedâfumbled slightly as he slid the ring onto her finger, needing two attempts before he got it right. His heart pounded in his chest. He had never been this happy.

Cheers erupted around them.
âMr. Lloyd and Ms. Clarke, youâre truly a perfect match!â
Even Gordon, though reluctant, had to admit that Kellan was the man Allison could truly rely on.
Lilyanaâs eyes glistened with tears as she looked at them. âYou must cherish each other and be happy for a lifetime.â
Fabianâs voice was thick with emotion. âKellan, Allison⦠perhaps we should go back to Ontdale for a grand celebration. Thatâs where you grew up, where you have friends and family.â
He wanted to give his daughter the wedding she deserved.
Allison smiled. âThen letâs do it next month. Weâll have the wedding in Ontdale, and you all have to be there.â
âOf course.â
Fabian turned to Kellan with a serious expression. He seemed to have remembered something troublesome.
âI know youâll take good care of Allison, but Iâve heard things at the Lloyd Group are⦠complicated.â
âDonât worry. Once Iâve made up my mind, no one can stand in my way.â Kellanâs voice was firm. âIâll handle my father.â
