He wore a black tuxedo and was talking with someone on his phone. Each girl passing gave him many hints but he simply ignored them. Everyone's eyes were coming out as they saw a rich man.
Marrie didn't give a dam and started going inside of the college. She was just hoping that he doesn't notice her but her wishes were unanswered.
As soon as his eyes caught Marrie passing, he hangs up the call and walked towards her.
"Marrie... Can we talk?" he directly asked her in front of everyone.
Each girl around her was looking at her with envy in their eyes. But there was another lady who was in tears seeing this all.
That was JENRA!
"L-Liam... Please Go..." Marrie can only say this.
"Marrie, it is something important."
"But I don't want to talk."
"Then you can see this only."
Liam took out a black velvet box. He went on his knees and opened the box with his two hands. His hands were sweating and nervousness was visible on his face. But still, he held his confidence and said,
"Marrie Su, I, Liam Walker wants you to be his wife. Will you marry me?"
GASP!!
Everyone around them was shocked to their core! No one expected a proposal right now, in front of college or in a college ground.
Everyone started looking at the ring which Liam offered to Marrie. It wasn't a diamond ring. But it held a ruby in it. It is commonly said that diamond rings were are most romantic but the truth lies in that ruby signifies one's love.
Marrie just stood there. She actually froze!
Yesterday night, he said that she can take as much time she wants but today, here he is proposing? Why?
"L-Liam... This is not the right place to t-talk about t-this."
"I know."
Marrie took a deep breath first. "Liam, I can't marry you. Find someone else." She directly rejected him on his face with everyone around them.
Liam stood up and took her hand and guided them both to his car. "Sit."
"I won't." Marrie knew what was happening right now.
"I said something Marrie."
"I also said something which is not going in your stupid brain." But anyhow, Marrie finally sat in his car. Did she have any other option?
"Why you don't want to marry me?"
"Why? Hah... Liam, there are so many WHY! You know who you are. What you do. How can you expect me to marry you? You are a WOMANIZER!" As expected, no matter how cold Liam is, Marrie being a strong lady always spoke the truth.
"Your father also belongs to that world. Underworld runs in your blood also. Don't ignore that fact." he reminded her.
Marrie remains silent.
"And if it is about Womanizer thing, I will change. Even if I'm not, I will make sure to remove this rumor."
Marrie still not replied.
"We are going to the marriage bureau." And hearing this, Marrie snapped!
"WHO IS GOING TO MARRIAGE BUREAU? I'm NOT. I don't have anything. Not even the family registry book. How can I go?"Marrie knew this was the main point. No marriage was going to take place.
But little she knew that her thoughts were already read by Liam and she was already sold to him.
"I have yours as well as mine." Marrie's eyes widened hearing this.
"H-How?"
"It was easy to convince Uncle Jo. He sold you for two building lands only."
BOOM!
All the books in her hand were fallen on the ground. Her father actually sold her to him? Her worth was only two lands in his eyes?
Even thinking about this, made Marrie's eyes moist. No one can change what is happening.
But then she heard a voice.
"Don't worry. For me, your worth is my life. I will dote on you in this lifetime. You will have your uncle Walker and aunt Walker as your mother in law and father in law."
Listening to this, Marrie calmed down. Even if she is able not to marry, she will not return to her own father at all!
"I have one condition. I want Addie to stay with Uncle Walker, in Walker mansion. Do you agree?" Even if she can't do anything good for herself, she can at least bring a bright future for her brother.
"Sure. I was planning for this also."
Wiping her tears with her hand, Marrie looked at him and said,
"I will marry you."
***PAST ENDS***
.....
Hearing all this, Anna was feeling mixed emotions in her head as well as in her heart.
Indirectly, her father forced her mother into marriage and her Grandpa Jo sold her to him just for the land. Wasn't this a joke?
