By a little after four in the afternoon, the sun had softened from its midday blaze.
At Lafayette Group, closing time was an hour away.
River had turned the entrance into a sea of flowers. He stood there in a sharp suit and tie, holding a bouquet of roses and a diamond ring, ready to propose to Romina.
He had even rented a small helicopter to drop his proposal from the sky and shower the area with flower petals, making the moment unforgettable.
This proposal was destined to succeed.
Both families had already met and approved. River also knew the Lafayette family was encouraging Romina to marry him soon. He hadn’t proposed yet, and he wanted her to have what other women had—a proper proposal.
So today, he planned to surprise her right after work, in front of everyone at her company.
