Carla knew what was on Randy's mind, but she didn't ask any further. Some things must be dealt with even if you aren't willing to…
"Be a good boy for me, alright? I'll be back to have dinner with you both. I promise."
She hugged Randy and left.
Randy watched as Carla walked out of the castle. He even went to the window to watch her get into the car.
I know she'll be back very soon, but I feel as if Mommy was leaving me to a faraway land. Another world, perhaps.
As the convoy disappeared in sight, Randy broke eye contact with the view outside of the castle. I can never understand the adult world…
Carla arrived at Lierger Corporation in no time. The building was situated in the best location in Erihal where many built their business empires.
The press conference was ready to go as Carl and Lucas were sitting on stage, waiting for Carla.
On the other hand, Daemon chose to stay away from the spotlight. Thus, his absence was no surprise.
Carla got off her car and walked towards the press conference. Every media reporter instantly turned their cameras towards her as they clicked away frantically.
Lucas welcomed her even before Carla reached the stage. He even pulled her chair for her like a gentleman. His kind gesture was caught in action as the reporters continued taking pictures.
Carl smiled as he watched his son behave like a gentleman.
It was no doubt a great move under such circumstances.
The trio was quickly seated as Carla greeted the media reporters as a host. She then introduced Carl and Lucas before announcing the news of her marriage to Lucas.
The crowd immediately went wild as soon as they heard the news.
Everyone knew that a big shot of Lierger Corporation like Carla would have big news for the public. Yet, no one expected it to be this.
The marriage between Lierger Corporation and the royal family of F Nation was no doubt a power move to join forces. The Lierger Corporation would gain a powerful ally while the royal family of F Nation and the Laurent family would also gain great help!
The media reporters hurriedly asked many questions regarding how the couple met and the wedding details.
Carla was able to answer every one of their questions with ease.
As for their romance history, Lucas mentioned that he immediately fell in love with her when he first met Carla at a banquet.
He could not forget about her ever since that encounter and searched high and low for any signs of her.
Fortunately, he met once again after six months at a royal banquet in F Nation. He wasted no time as he confessed his love for her. However, she rejected him.
The couple became friends as Lucas continued to stay by her side, hoping he could win her over with his sincerity and love. He had also confessed to her several times in the process but she didn't accept him until today.
With that, Lucas got on one knee and revealed a ring that symbolized the royals of F Nation and proposed to Carla!
The female journalist at the scene was moved by his act, especially when he looked at Carla affectionately.
The crowd was in awe and exclamation! The scene was like a perfect love story straight out of a fairytale!
Carla looked at the ring as her mind drifted to the scene when she was married to Zayn. All of the memories from those days flashed before her eyes.
In a split second, the man kneeling in front of her became Zayn!
Carla couldn't help herself but smile gently as she looked back at him affectionately. She slowly stretched out her hand towards Lucas to accept his proposal…
Lucas was so touched, he quickly put the ring on Carla's finger and hugged her tightly. "I love you, Carla!" he said emotionally.
Carla was instantly pulled back into reality. The person in front of her was Lucas and not Zayn…
He's never said "I love you" to me before. Never. Forget it, let's start over from this moment onwards…
Carla told herself as she slowly closed her eyes and placed her arms around Lucas.
