"Catherine…" Vincent started.
He couldn't finish what he had to say because Catherine interrupted him by saying, "Vincent, I'm sorry that I made you wait so long. Everything was happening so fast that I got scared…"
Vincent gently held her hands. "Catherine, it's okay. I don't mind that you took the time to answer. Rather, it made me happy that you took your time thinking about my proposal."
His voice was warm and his words were tender. He was gazing at her affectionately.
Catherine was touched by his generosity. Her eyes slightly welled up. "I'll take a break from work," she told him.
Feeling confused by her words, Vincent stared at her.
"Let's get married, Vincent," she added. "I'm ready to be yours forever anytime."
Vincent opened his mouth but was unable to utter a single word. He gazed at her. His eyes were saying many words at the same time but he couldn't express them properly.
