Never Too Far Novel

Chapter 1955

Josephine thought about it and believed it had to be something Ethan had arranged. She nodded. “Sure!”

Subsequently, the clerks helped her with her makeup and into a beautiful blue evening gown. Once done, she resembled a stunning mermaid, noble yet mysterious. She looked at her reflection in the mirror, satisfied with her princess-like makeup and hairstyle.

“Miss Jacobson, we wish you a delightful evening.” The four clerks left.

Soon, Josephine received a call from Ethan. “Hey, where are you?” She had begun to miss him.

“Open the door, enter the hallway, and come straight to the deck. I’ll be waiting there.”

She replied, “Sure. I’m coming.”

As she was wearing an evening dress, she could not help feeling like she was a fairy tale princess. Everything that happened to her was like a dream.

The deck would usually be crowded, but why is it so empty today? Just as she stepped foot into the hallway, she was flabbergasted because the deck had been decorated for a huge proposal. A live band was playing romantic songs on the side while Ethan donned a blue suit, standing there and watching her with a smile as she approached. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

“Josephine, come here,” he instructed.

When she approached him, she finally understood his disappearance. He had been here, decorating this place for their proposal. While looking at the large heart made of roses, the white veil moving in the wind, and the romantic dinner table on the side, she covered her chest, feeling so touched that she was about to cry.

Once she arrived beside Ethan, she was pulled into a gentle hug. After releasing her, he got on one knee before her and held her hand, asking, “Josephine Jacobson, will you marry me?”

“I do!” Josephine replied with determination.

Ethan held her hand while slowly rising to his feet. Then he grabbed her waist with one hand and cupped the back of her head with the other, gently kissing her before the crowd. “Josephine, thank you.”

She did not expect he would propose to her before he regained his memory. “Why didn’t you wait until you recovered all of your memories?”

“I was afraid you’d feel displeased with me and escape, so I have to make you mine first,” he announced.

That cracked Josephine up. “Don’t worry. I’m not going anywhere. Whether it’s this lifetime or the next, I’m yours. You can’t escape from me.”

Ethan leaned his forehead against hers. “How would I bear to leave you alone if you’re willing to stay beside me?”

Music began to play, and he hugged her waist. “Dance with me!”

Then the couple waltzed to the slow music. Rather than saying they were dancing, it would be more appropriate to say they were pacing slowly while embracing each other. Under the dazzling sunset and a gentle sea breeze, a romantic atmosphere filled the space while several cameras were placed on the side, recording everything.

She raised her head and asked, “I heard there’s a masquerade ball tonight.”

“Would you like to join?”

“Will it be fun?”

“Of course!”

“Sure. I’ll join the ball,” she said.

On the other hand, another young lady was currently inside a presidential suite on board—Willow Presgrave. Her assistant ran over and told her, “Miss Presgrave, guess whom I saw on the deck!”

Willow was in a daze while propping her chin on her hand. She asked, “Who?”

“I saw Mr. Quarles proposing to a beautiful woman!”

“You mean Ethan?” Willow exclaimed in surprise, not expecting to bump into him here.

“Yes, it’s him. The proposal was so romantic, but guests weren’t allowed to disturb them, so we could only watch from far away. Why don’t you go and congratulate them?”
