Bonnie froze when she saw Ivor.


    ''Wait, what?! What''s happening?!''


    Ivor noticed his fiancee staring at him and stared back at her curiously. Bonnie could not move, while Andreas had yet to realize the couple was staring at each other awkwardly.


    The prince smiled and approached Bonnie. He then got on one knee and presented her with a bouquet of roses with a diamond ring in the middle.


    "Bonnie, you promised to be my consort, but I never proposed. So, I''m doing it today in this rose garden. I hope you know the severity of my love for you. I want you toe to Zudale with me and be my princess there."


    Ivor heard everything, and the fury in his eyes burned brighter every second. Even the veins on his forehead became apparent.


    Meanwhile, Avril''s eyes widened in shock as she stood behind Bonnie. Then, the former looked between Bonnie, Andreas, and Ivor.


    ''Wh-what in the hell is happening?! I didn''t expect Ivor to be right there! Prince Andreas is hard enough to deal with, yet Ivor''s here, too! He''s even harder to handle than the prince, especially since Ivor is Bonnie''s fiance. I can just imagine how horrible this looks.''


    Things had gotten out of hand, and Avril was just an outsider. Even so, she felt suffocated and was unsure how Bonnie would handle the situation.


    With that in mind, Avril could only look at Bonnie, only to see thetter freeze.

    ''Bonnie has always looked calm and collected. I''ve never seen her so dumbfounded. Nothing could faze Bonnie like this. That said, I see helplessness and powerlessness in her eyes. Who wouldn''t feel that way in this situation?


    ''If I were in her shoes, I''d jump off the nearest river.'' Thest part of Avril''s thoughts mirrored Bonnie''s.

    when he first invited her here. However, she did not expect Ivor to be there, too. Worse, Ivor saw everything. Bonnie dared not look into yor''s eyes but had to face him. After all, fleeing would solve nothing.


    At that moment, Andreas asked, "Are you worried I won''t shower you with love once we return to Zudale? I understand your concerns, Bonnie. Also, Pyralis and Zudale are far from each other."


    Bonnie sighed and gathered her courage to look at Ivor.


    He noticed Bonnie''sck of response and continued to confess his love for her. Then, he raised a hand and swore, "I swear on my status as a prince to love you for the rest of our lives. I''ll never be unfaithful.


    "If I break my oath, my royal family


    will disown me and demote me to amoner.. Then, I can never use my family''s resources or return to the pce. I''ll also transfer all my properties and wealth to you Bonnie. Please marry me and return to Zudale with me as my princess."
