We were on the spage regarding this matter. When Quinn married Matthew's father back then, not only did
she suffer from gossip, but she also needed to compete with his ex-wife. She was later resented by Matthew and
lived in fear.
She had not had a day of rest for so many years. Now, she could finally seek happiness of her own. It was indeed
a good thing.
When the elevator arrived on the first floor, Theo pulledoutside.
There were many people in the lobby at the end of the workday. It was the severy day, but today was a little
different. A lot of people had formed a circle in the lobby,
which was truly strange.
| beccurious and pulled Theo over to see what was going on.
| saw a young man in the center of the crowd with roses in his hands. He was kneeling on one knee in front of a
woman.

Was he proposing to her?
When | saw the woman's appearance, | was a little surprised to see that it was Thalia.
Did she not just start dating?
Women in their 20s were the most beautiful. She was blushing, and her coy demeanor made her look particularly
attractive.
There were probably too many onlookers, so she felt really embarrassed and said to the man on one knee in
front of her, "Let's talk when we get back. Let's go home."
She tried to pull the man up after saying that.
The man refused to stand up, so she could not move him no matter what.
The man seemed to have made up his mind to get her to agree to his marriage proposal. He looked at her with
eyes filled with adoration. "I really like you, Thalia. Please say yes. I'll take good care of you from now on."
"Marry him!"
"Marry him!"
The crowd started clamoring.
Thalia's mouth twitched, and it looked like she was forcing a smile.
She was clearly not shy but embarrassed now.
She looked at the onlookers and hoped someone could help her out of her predicament.
When she looked in my direction, her gaze paused for a moment. She said to the man a few seconds later, "I've
rejected you before, Shawn. Why are you still doing this and making both of us embarrassed? | don't like you, nor
will | agree to your marriage proposal. Please leave and stop pestering me."
No one expected that this marriage proposal was between two people with no mutual feelings for each other.
The romantic proposal had instantly turned into a farce.
The onlookers were instantly quiet and knowingly left the scene.
The man proposing was flushed. He had never felt so embarrassed in his life.

"That wasn't what you said before."
The man was greatly puzzled. His eyes when he looked at her were filled with sorrow.
Thalia looked at him with a cold gaze. "I was just afraid of hurting you, that's why | said that. | was obviously
trying to reject you. Didn't you realize?"
The man did not know what to do and lowered his head to look at the delicate roses in his hands. He asked in a
hoarse voice, "Why can't you like me? Is it because I'm not rich enough or is it because I'm not good enough?"
"Whether you're rich or good has nothing to do with whether I like you or not. I've made myself very clear. Please
leave and stop contactingin the future."
The Thalia | remembered was a lively and adorable woman, not someone who would say such a thing. It turned
out that getting to know a person was not that easy of a task.
| took Theo out of the company and sighed as | walked, "No one ever confessed tolike that when | was in
school. It's such a pity to not be able to experience what that felt like. The rash but romantic things youngsters
do when they're in love are truly beautiful."
Theo held my hand tightly. "Those things will only be romantic if the feelings are mutual. Do you think it's a pity «
because you liked someone when you were in school?"
