Was Marcel proposing to her?
Although there was no ring on her finger and Clara's case was still unsolved, she knew Marcel meant the words he spoke. Words are powerful, equivalent to promises, and are used strictly because the people here don't throw them around easily if they don't intend to keep them. However, what would have seemed romantic was shattered the moment she heard Marcel mention ten kids.
She gulped, "Did you just say ten kids?"
Marcel nodded seriously, "Yes, my love." He took her knuckle and kissed it, befuddling her brain the more with the sensation, "I pretty much grew up as an only child before Chloe came around, hence I desire to have a large family."
"But -" Arianna was about to protest when he interrupted her.
"Moreover, I have enough stamina to make enough children and the money to give them the life they want. What do you say to that, shouldn't we give it a try?"
