Adrian's gaze paused slightly.
No matter how unfazed he usually was, upon hearing her words, his heart still thumped uncontrollably.
"I've never been someone who does things on a whim, nor have I had any special interest in romance or marriage. But after seeing you, I feel like a dormant volcano, bubbling back to life," Serena said. "I want to marry you. Not for any reason, simply because I want to."
Adrian's Adam's apple shifted, his eyes deep and penetrating: "Are you serious?"
Serena flashed him a gentle smile, long missed. Her delicate features blossomed like flowers in spring, vibrant and lively, without a hint of hesitation.
"I'm serious." She grasped his hand, "Apart from you, who else could I marry?"
Apart from you, who else could I love?
Serena's intense and fatal emotions fiercely pierced Adrian's chest, causing his heart to swell.
