Chapter 369
Adrian stared at Natalia, expecting her to accept his proposal and say yes. His eyes were warm and full of love.
Natalia’s eyes fixed on the ring, which caused him to frown. He took a glance at the ring. Despite the fact that it did not appear to be particularly large, the diamond was the most expensive one. He liked the ring first and foremost because of its design. It was shaped like a moonflower. She was his moonflower, so he bought this for her.
‘Did she not like the ring?‘ he thought in his head.
He glanced at Natalia and scolded himself in his head. It could be the reason. He should take her with him before deciding on one. But then how would it be a surprise?
He was so excited that he could not even wait for their lunch, and for the night to go somewhere, he asked her about it directly. He knew her answer was yes because she had given herself to him last night to become his. But he wanted to make it special for her. Because she was special to him.
“Natalia, I was in a hurry to decide one, so I-”
She interrupted him and spoke out for the first time since last night.
“No, I won’t.”
His whole body froze, but his hand, which was holding the box, shook a little.
“What do you mean?” he asked in a low voice.
Natalia shifted her gaze from the ring to him. His eyes met hers, and his heart nearly stopped beating.
Her eyes were colder than ever. They had no emotions, as if she did not have any feelings for him.
“I can’t accept your proposal,” she replied calmly.
He was shocked at how calmly she replied to him.
“But why?” he asked without getting on his feet.
She folded her hands across her chest and asked,
“What made you think that I would remarry you, Alpha Adrian?”
His heart started to pound inside his chest. He was not pleased with her indifferent demeanor. His lips trembled as he pursed them, careful not to show her.
He tried his best to remain composed and said,
“Why can’t I think that? Aren’t we back together?”
As if he had said something untrue, her brows knitted together.
“What are you talking about? Get back together?”
He stared at her for a while as his mind tried to proceed with what had happened to her.
‘Did she, by any chance, forget about last night? But this is not possible. She was in her full sense. How can she forget what has happened between us?‘ he thought. noveldrama
He slowly moved down the box but did not put it back in his pocket. He rose to his feet and tried to hold her.
But she took a step back, which shocked him.
“Natalia”
His low tone was heavy with pain. But she was unable to feel it.
“Maybe you forgot about last night, baby. It’s okay. “You do not need to put too much pressure on your mind,” he said, trying not to offend her.
He feared that if he enraged her, she would leave. It seemed to him that she had truly forgotten about last night. He lowered his head and closed the box.
But he froze when she spoke up again.
“I didn’t forget a single thing. I was in my heat, not drunk.”
