It's been two years since they started dating. They have been happily in love for two years. Ezekiel now holds a general manager position in their family's company, while Selene is an assistant editor for a fashion magazine. She couldn't believe her luck. She thought it would be hard for her career to progress. After all, there was intense competition, and she was just a fresh graduate. Maybe it's due to her good looks and how classy she’s dressed. She was thankful that she has a unique style of dressing up. While she was thankful that she was able to get a job, the work is piling up tremendously. The yuletide edition of their magazine is fast approaching and everyone is busy polishing the finishing touch before its release date. Selene was buried deep in her work when her phone ringtone was heard. She would have ignored it only that it was a special ringtone she assigned to Ezekiel. She picked up her phone and answered the call.

"Hey."

"Love, are you done with your work? I'll come to pick you up. I'm driving to your office right now."
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQNrklPC4P
"Selene looked up at the office wall clock. She was a bit surprised. It was near 6 pm. How time quickly flies when you're busy. "Oh, I'm almost done. Just tell me when you've arrived, then I'll head down."
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BH4pTHl9M
"Okay."
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42CTm9PwsB
"I'll wait for you. Drive safely."

It took about half an hour when she received a text message, her lips slightly curved up upon reading the message, then she hurriedly turned off her computer and cleaned her desk. She fixed her hair and checked herself in the mirror. She gave a satisfied nod to her reflection. Good, she still manages to pull up a fresh image even after long hours of work. She made her way out of her office and waited for an elevator. When the elevator opened up she was surprised to see Anthony, one of her handsome colleagues from the marketing department. She greeted him.

"Going home?"
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsF3FSRl6lJ
"Yeah. Aren't you going home yet?"
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfoD9kqgOx
"About to. Do you have someone to send you home?"
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4qoMcIOBY
"Yes, my boyfriend." She said while looking at him. The man named Anthony just smiled, but his eyes looked sad.

Selene was not comfortable with this colleague of hers, especially if the guy was paying much attention to her. She tried her very best to avoid meeting him and chatting with him alone because he has a reputation as a playboy. She doesn't want to be added to the long strings of girls who got involved with him.

The elevator stopped at the ground floor and she swiftly got out. She said goodbye and hurried out of the company. She was able to spot Ezekiel's car and walked to where he parked the car. Ezekiel opened the car door for her.

"Thanks."

Ezekiel was able to see a familiar man get out of the same building. His mood turned sour.
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuHmhTPJVa
"Hey, what are you looking at?" Selene asked. She still has not closed the door.
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAn9nCs5t3
"Is that colleague of yours still pestering you?"
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfi5qsiibI3
Selene was able to catch Anthony looking in her direction. She looked away and turned her eyes to Ezekiel."
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxpUfFdarp
"Zeke, I'm not the least bothered about him, so you shouldn't be, either."

Ezekiel still can't forget the way that colleague tried to flirt with his girlfriend during her Annual company party. If he didn't show up at the last minute, who knows that jerk already took advantage of his beautiful girlfriend?

"I already told you to quit your work and stay at home. I can raise you."
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxolr7aqVQ
Selene was able to tell how serious her boyfriend was with that grave tone. She laughed. "Why is my boyfriend so serious? I already told you, I like my work. I'm not planning to quit just yet."

At least not until I gave birth to your child...

Selene was in deep thoughts about making her own family when Ezekiel told her that they will be going out for dinner.

He drove up to a luxurious hotel. After he parked the car, they entered the lobby and directly went to the reserved private room. Selene was clueless about what was about to happen. She just knows they were going to eat dinner. Much to her surprise, the door to the private room opened, and she was able to see how grandly it was decorated. It was a candlelit dinner. The ambiance was romantic. She felt touched. Ezekiel led her to a seat at the table. When the waiter closed the door, that's when Selene was able to regain her voice.
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHs1qbJUeDZ
"Wow. What's the occasion?"
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxnpcKFvrO
Ezekiel just smiled at her. That smile is full of meaning. She's starting to get nervous.
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KrwZTcHwB
The waiter came in and brought their food. They had a piece of slow and romantic music in the background. They talked about work and some other things. Then, dessert was lastly served, it was Selene's favorite tiramisu cake. But there is something different about the cake's decoration.

It has a shining diamond ring on top of it. It almost blinds her while it shines brightly in the dim light.
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzw55ItU3h
The waiter walked out of the room once again, leaving the couple inside. Ezekiel pulled the ring out of the cake and wiped the lingering icing on it, then moved closer to Selene. The girl is rendered speechless. Ezekiel was looking at her from the time the dessert came in, quietly observing his girlfriend's reaction. So far, there's no violent reaction.

As for Selene, she can’t believe what is happening, and feels like she’s living in one of Jennie’s CEO romance novels…

He kneeled on one knee and looked at her. "Do you remember when you told me that it never matters to you if you can't remember our past? That all that matters is what the future holds for us? I think it's time to make things official. I want to be with you legally. I want to call you my wife and be sure that everyone knows I'm your husband. I want my last name beside yours. That way, I will feel assured."

Selene Lee Ramos, not bad... Selene felt so touched that she was about to cry.
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHs6uDVYub8
"So, my beautiful girlfriend, will you marry me?"
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaumztxpdH
That instant, Selene realized why girls cry during a proposal. It is because the guy you loved so much is in front of you. The love is clearly showing in his eyes that he was offering a different kind of love, an oath for an eternity.
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOp0dNG0U0
"Yes. I will marry you.
