Rehabilitating the Villainess

Chapter 107: Marriage Proposal (2)

Then I woke Shael up and went back to her room together.

Kikiiik!

As soon as you open Shaels room, you would see the ring. So, no matter how ignorant she was, Shael would be able to notice the absence of the ring. 

However, Shaels reaction was different from what I thought. She was completely oblivious to the fact that her ring was gone.

Is she acting? I bet she didnt notice that I stole the ring.

Anyway, it was obvious what I had to do.

I dont see the ring that was always on your desk.

Really?

Shael confirmed that the ring was missing. After that, she started walking around the room as if trying to find the ring.

She doesnt look as anxious, but Ill have to make do with that

I couldnt do anything else about it, because there was no way to cancel the plan anymore. I just caressed the ring that I had taken out of my magic pouch, hoping that Shael would be satisfied with my feelings.

And, the moment Shael seemed tired of looking for the ring. I took out the ring and said to Shael.

I found the ring. Looks like it fell in the corner

Shael just stood in front of me, as if she was waiting for me to say something more.

I wanted to say the words I have in my head, but I couldnt.

She knew that I stole the ring.

Shael didnt even seem angry anymore, so it seemed like all of this was a part of her plan.

I erased the words I was going to say for the sake of naturalness, and changed my posture, determined to convey my feelings directly to Shael, who was waiting for me.

Kneeling on my left knee, I raised my head to look at Shael. 

It was the first time in my life that I had done it. Even so, it didnt feel strange.

With a weak smile on my face, I said as I held Shaels left hand with my hand.

Somehow, it seems a little late.

Indeed, I had made Shael wait for quite a long time. I wanted to do it after I ended all that matters with Clie. But today was as good a day as any. 

Come to think of it, I shouldve done it sooner rather than waiting for the right situation to propose, as Shael has always been waiting for me to express my feelings.

And now, I couldnt even create the right situation for the marriage proposal like I wanted. Still, I was determined to finish it properly. There was no need for words full of rhetoric.

I put the ring on Shaels ring finger and opened my mouth.

Lets get married.

I just used direct words that contained my sincerity.

Shael gave a satisfied smile. 

I was worried that it might have sounded a bit too simple, but the expression on Shaels face eased my heart.

Laughing, the corners of Shaels mouth suddenly parted, as she struggled to create a beautiful smile.

After repeating it several times, Shael pursed her lips to say something to me who was waiting for her response.

Of course. Did you mean not to?

..

I was a bit taken aback by Shaels unexpected response.

Crying with a very happy heart, or accepting the marriage proposal with a wide smilewasnt that usually the case?

I couldnt help but be at a loss for words at the confident, calm, yet shameless appearance of Shael.

I did, always

Then come. I will tell my parents.

Dont you have anything else to say?

Shael cut off my thought and asked me to follow her.

For some unknown reason, I felt quite sad. It reminded me of the villainess from the past who always ignored my opinion. The villainess who always ignored me and always got ahead of me when we walked together. 

I frowned as I recalled that bleak past.

However, it wasnt long before I got back my smile. 

The back of her neck is red

Because I noticed that the back of Shaels neck was more red than usual as she headed towards Duke Jespens room.

Come quickly!

Looking back at it now, Shael had urged me to follow and calmly walked forward, but she always matched my pace.

I realized that when I noticed that Shaels stride length was shortening. I could see her hands trembling, and I could see her body stiffening up.

As soon as I realized that, I understood why she had suddenly turned around and started walking. It must be because she didnt want show me her reddened cheeks.

It wasnt that she was ignoring me, it was because she couldnt think properly due to the shame.

A happy smile appeared on my face, as I followed her at a reasonable distance.
