Finally, Mary snapped out of her daze and smirked. "Alright, I'll accept your marriage proposal," she declared.
Anton was taken aback by her answer and fixated his gaze solely on her. He witnessed her smile before returning her attention to the window. The realization struck him: she had actually said yes. He couldn't believe his ears.
