Chapter 114: Past-2!
“Ashen, do you really love me?”
Xinovia asked with a pout.
Ashen nodded instantly, answering with sincere eyes: “Of Course! If I didn’t love you, why would I even propose you?”
“Then Why haven’t you made a move yet? It has been two months since we started dating and you have only held my hand once after gathering up the courage for a whole month. You haven’t even made our relationship public yet. I want you to say I love you in front of everyone!”
Xinovia demanded, expressing her discontent with Ashen while returning from college.
Ashen once again repeated the reason he had given her multiple times: “Xinovia dear, You know that this is my first relationship. I am a shy person and I really love you. Only talking to you and looking into your eyes makes me feel like the happiest person alive. Also, I don’t want people to judge our relationship. This relationship belongs to us both, there is no need to let the whole world interfere in it, right?”
Xinovia, however, wasn’t ready to listen to him this time: “Hmph, just admit you don’t have the guts to announce your love to the whole world! There is no need to make excuses.”
This comment had a direct effect on Ashen’s pride as a man: “You shouldn’t have gone there Xinovia. You want to see my guts right? Let’s do this, tomorrow, you wait for me in the middle of the college at noon, I’ll fulfill your wish!”
“Bingo!” Xinovia smiled internally as she nodded in agreement: “Alright my love, I’ll wait for you tomorrow!”
Afterward, she parted ways with Ashen towards her home.
This was Ashen’s normal life. He was hiding his real identity to live like a common college student. He wanted to experience normal college life, instead of living among fake people.
Ashen Family was the richest and most powerful family in the world with everything under their control, however, this family completely remained a secret from the world with no information about them anywhere.
It also made Ashen’s life easier.
Velinor Family was not a haven for Ashen as one would expect. His Family handled the distribution of the decision-making power by comparing the percentage of ownership in the main company of the family.
This company was called Nuliner Carpenting Company. Nuliner Carpenting, this company’s name was just to fool people, instead, this company was the one that decided who would have the power of the Velinor Family.
Ashen’s Great-Grandfather had two children and he had distributed the family’s decision-making rights to both of his children equally.
That meant both of the children owned 50 percent of the Nuliner Carpenting company. This company also gave them the equal number of wealth and power, however, the younger sibling decided to let his older brother take the head’s position while he would help him with the management of the family.
This younger sibling was Ashen’s Grandfather, Alexander Velinor and the older sibling was the head of the family, William Velinor.
Now, any decision that was to be made would require both Alexander’s and William’s signatures.
William had one son and a daughter-in-law. He had three grandchildren, two were twins brother and sister, and one elder brother.
The two twins were of Ashen’s age right now and the elder brother was 32 years old.
On the other hand, Ashen’s Father and mother, both died in a car accident when he was just twelve.
Ashen only had a younger brother who was four years younger than him, Victor Velinor, or simply Vic as Ashen used to call him.
Ashen, after parting from Xinovia, became busy preparing for the next day. He wanted to surprise Xinovia and make her happy. He made a few calls on the way home.
The next day, Xinovia, with an excited smile all over her face, waited in the center of the college grounds as Ashen had asked her to.
She was looking here and there, searching for Ashen when suddenly,
Screech!
A truck entered the college at a very high speed before turning towards Xinovia, charging towards her.
Her eyes widened in horror as her body froze in the spot in panic before the Truck turned and stopped with a screeching sound behind her.
The truck’s back door opened and multiple men rushed out of it, holding musical instruments in their hands.
They made a semicircle behind Xinovia before beginning to play.
“This… Isn’t this my favorite song?” Xinovia thought internally, hearing the song.
At this moment, she spotted Ashen walking towards her in an expensive-looking attire, neatly groomed. Her Jaw dropped in surprise upon seeing how handsome he was.
“Is he really Ashen?” She wondered, looking at the terrifyingly handsome man walking towards her.
Ashen didn’t dress well in college before and wore cheap clothes with holes in them to make people not notice his face. If they noticed how handsome he was, there was a chance they might be able to figure out that he was hiding his identity.
From the distance, Ashen pointed towards the left as Xinovia’s gaze followed his finger and her eyes brightened, noticing the large red balloons flying in the air with ‘I Love You Xinovia’ Written over them.
Then Ashen pointed to the right as Xinovia spotted the same type of balloons floating in the right direction.
Soon, those Balloons began popping up in every direction, helping Ashen express his feelings.
Xinovia was overwhelmed by the joy she felt, she had never expected this. Right now, the whole sky was covered with the balloons that had her name written all over them.
whup-whup-whup!
Xinovia’s ears caught the increasingly growing sound of a helicopter and in the next moment, wind started to blow around her due to the helicopter.
The helicopter began to float just above Xinovia’s head without moving before its gate slid open and from both sides, Rose Flower Petals began to rain down on top of her.
She closed her eyes to feel and capture this moment as a lifelong memory.
“Hey, I’ve prepared all of this for you and you aren’t even looking at me?”
As soon as her ears heard this, she opened her eyes, finding Ashen standing in front of her.
The moment her gaze fell on Ashen, She jumped in his arms, hugging him tightly, muttering: “I Love you Ashen! I love you so so much!”
A smile appeared on Ashen’s face as he reciprocated the hug: “Although It should’ve been me to say I love you… ah, forget it, I love you too, Xinovia! Let’s live a long life together!”
Clap-Clap-Clap!
A round of cheer began to resound in the college as if they were rooting for the couple in front of them.
