Winner Takes All

At that moment.

Everyone looked at Amber who was in the crowd and she was bathed in camera flashes. Amber lowered her head and her beautiful cheeks started to blush in red.

Although she had been to many similar occasions, her heart was still pounding and felt like it was ready to jump out of her chest. Because on those occasions, the attention was on her father. But now it was her boyfriend who brought all the attention to her.

"Wow... she is beautiful." When they saw her, the crowd automatically cleared a path for her and remarked in praises.

"No wonder. If I have such a beautiful girlfriend, I am also willing to wait!"

"Mr. Hughes is so capable, he has a huge achievement at such a young age and also has such a beautiful girlfriend. He is so successful in life!"

This made Amber droop her head even more and her hands grabbed her skirt tightly while increasing her pace. From when she was young, she had never been so nervous.

When she walked to the side of the stage, a large hand extended towards her. Amber was startled and stopped in her tracks.

"Nervous?" A familiar and tender voice sounded.

Amber's rosy face looked up towards Jack and pursed her lips tightly and nodded. Then she raised and placed her hand into Jack's palm. Jack gripped her hand tightly and Amber's pounding heart started to calm down and her anxiety eased considerably. This feeling was very strange and caused her to be stunned for a moment.

Everyone was looking at them.

Jack who was in a business suit and Amber who was dressed in angelic white, slowly walked to the center of the stage.

"Aren't you afraid that your boss will scold you by doing this?" Amber looked around and said softly.

Jack smiled, "Why should I scold myself?"

Amber's body shivered and looked in surprise at Jack. Before she could come to her senses, Jack raised the microphone and announced, "I'd like to introduce to everyone, this is Amber, my girlfriend." Thunderous applause roared at that instance.

Everyone was wondering who was Jack waiting for in breach of protocol. But when they saw Amber's appear and heard Jack's announcement, all the dissatisfaction disappeared. They were a beautiful couple. Men slogged and worked hard so that in their moment of glory, they would be able to share with the woman they loved. Let alone, Amber's beauty won over everyone present. Anyone else would have done the same thing as Jack did.

"Mr. Hughes, you are so mean. We've met so many times and you only bring out your beautiful girlfriend today?" A managing executive on the stage teased him.

Jack smiled and replied, "Mr. Woods, I just wanted to take the opportunity during this important occasion for a public display of affection."

What he said amused everyone on the stage.

Amber looked dumbfounded at Mr. Woods. She just came back to the country and her understanding of the city was very limited. But she knew that Mr. Woods was a very influential executive in the city departments! There were only a few people in the city who could joke casually with Mr. Woods!

She looked at Jack and was about to speak. But before she could say anything, Jack looked at the master of ceremony and said, "We can begin."

"Okay! Now, let's invite Mr. Hughes of DT Real Estate Agency and executives of the departments to officiate the opening of Dragon Garden!"

The announcement of the master of ceremony stopped the doubt in Amber. And what the master of ceremony said confirmed what Jack said to Amber.

Amber's face was full of surprise and was dumbfounded. She was in disbelief. The person whom she came back to help had secretly become so strong! Was this the surprise Jack wanted to give her?

The event ladies quickly lifted the ribbon. Jack led the shocked Amber to the side and placed the scissors into Amber's hand and then hugged her from behind. All the attention and camera flashes were on the stage. More accurately, they were focused on the two of them.

Amber's mind was a blank and she smiled sweetly while in Jack's embrace as if she was enveloped by sweetness and blissfulness. The entire ribbon-cutting ceremony ended before she came to her senses.

Boom!

The sound of ceremonial cannon blasts thundered. Boom boom boom...

72 ceremonial cannons to the left and right of the main entrance roared in succession.

The sound was thunderous and frightened Amber into Jack's embrace. "Look towards the sky," Jack said into Amber's ears.

Amber was like a startled kitten and slowly raised her head from Jack's embrace and looked towards the sky. Along with the thunderous clap of the ceremonial cannons, the sky was filled with countless flower petals drifting down.

Flower petals of all colors drifted down romantically in the sunlight. Amber looked in a daze at the flower petals covered sky.

At that moment, she forgot about her identity and her background. She felt like a little girl and tears welled up in her eyes. She raised her hand and grabbed a flower petal and said, "Rose?"

"I know that you like roses and got them to find all the colors of roses." Jack looked tenderly at Amber and smiled gently, "Do you like this flower petals rain?"

He knew about Amber's sentiments towards him.

She was willing to remain by his side without knowing clearly his affection towards her and that was enough for him to do anything for her. I will strive my best to give you all that you desire! "I like it, I absolutely like it..."

Amber's beautiful eyes turned watery and red and leaned into Jack's embrace, "Thank you."

Everyone looked attentively at this scene and was recorded by all the media's cameras.

Everyone likes a flower petal filled scene of a proposal and will naturally extend their blessings to them. There were numerous ladies who looked at Amber with envy. Whop whop whop...

At this moment, whirling sounds can be heard from the sky and immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Look! Helicopters!"Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Someone said in surprise and everyone remarked in awe. Three helicopters approached from afar in the flower petals filled sky.

"This..." Amber looked in surprise.

Jack pinched Amber's nose and laughed, "This is also your surprise."

Amber shivered and her heartbeat raced. Very soon, the helicopters hovered above the sales showroom. Everyone looked at the helicopters in amazement just as all the media cameras focused on them. The three helicopters opened the cargo door and countless balloons were scattered and three long scrolls were unveiled.

"Ms. Amber."

"You wagered your life."

"How can I let you lose."

The three scrolls, the three messages were like bolts of lightning that struck into everyone's heart.

Boom... Another thunderous boom rang out.

Amber trembled again and now her tears were flowing. She looked at Jack in astonishment and he smiled tenderly, "This is my vow to you. Thanks for not giving up on me and from today onwards, I will never leave your side."

Never shall we part...

Amber dove into Jack's embrace with her head tugged in and her delicate body shivered.

"You scoundrel. You said it was a surprise. Why did you make me cry?"

It sounded like a complaint but Jack smiled and patted Amber's back with his right hand while he gently kissed Amber's head. It was as if time stood still while everyone looked on with envy.

All the cameras rapidly captured that moment for eternity.

Just at the moment of blissfulness, a beautiful image ran from afar towards the sales showroom...☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
