I woke up and looked the surrounding around  me,  what  am  I  doing  in Richard's penthouse.

Then I  remembered the last  night, that how  Richard came to my office and pulled the kidnapping stunt.

"Good morning, my sleeping beauty slept well", he  gave  me  a charming smile, but I will not melt by it I was really mad at him, how  can  he  do such a childish act.

"Richard please do the honour of explaining about your actions and the reason behind why did you pull such a stunt," I said while controlling my anger.

"Pleasure is all mine, my lady," he said making me angrier.

"Richard I am serious, why the hell did  you bring me in your penthouse like a caveman," I ask.

"I am also a serious baby, I  will answer all your questions I promise but after the breakfast, I  know you must be hungry," he said.

He was right I am very hungry as I didn't eat anything last night.

I stood up from the bed and walked towards the bathroom and brush my teeth with a spare brush which Richard must have kept for me.

After brushing, I  went towards the breakfast table and sit beside Richard. I was eating when suddenly he pulled me on his lap.

"Richard what are you doing," I asked.

"What it looks like, I am enjoying my breakfast and my closeness with my girlfriend," he said,  I  was about to answer him.

When I  heard someone cleared its throat I looked up to see William bro with a smiling face.

"Good morning, love birds" he teased us. I  tried to get off from his lap but Richard tightened his grip around me.

"Indeed,  it was a  good morning but now it turns into a bad morning," my dear boyfriend said, I tried my best not to laugh.

"Someone is in a bad mood did I spoil your breakfast little bro" William bro teased him.

"Oh, please cut the crap and tell me why are you here," Richard said.

"Wow, what a wonderful way to talk to your elder brother," bro said.

"At least I didn't kick you out from the penthouse like you did"  Richard complained,  I  started laughing by thinking about the incident.

"You're still upset by that incident, I already apologize for it but you will not forget it and complain about it like a 5-year-old kid, anyways I came to take you along with me I need your suggestion for a project," he said.

"I am sorry sunshine for stealing your boyfriend but this is important," bro said.

"It's okay,  brother I  understand you don't need to apologize," I said.

"Baby, I gotta go have your breakfast and  I  told the driver to bring your clothes from your house, till then take rest," he said and hugged me.

I  was so tired,  that  I  didn't go
to work and stayed in  Richard's penthouse. I came from the bathroom and noticed a box wrapped with ribbon and a letter along with it.

I opened the box and saw a beautiful grey gown, I read the letter "Baby be ready at 7:00 pm my driver will pick you, please  don't  keep  me  wait for long,  your  one  and  only handsome boyfriend Richard ❤"

I  chuckle while reading the last line this guy is so cocky. I can't even be angry with him for so long.

I  didn't know how the time flew so fast and now it's time to get ready as per my bf order.  I  am so curious and impatient by the thought of what is he up to.

I look at myself in the mirror, I must say  Richard has a  good taste in dressing. the gowns fit to be so well and the colour I just love it, I am not a big fan of dark and bright colour.

I prefer a light colour and that's why my sister says my style of dressing is boring.

I looked at my watch and it's 7:00 pm already, I  locked the penthouse and then walk downstairs where the driver was waiting for me.

I was sitting in the car and tapping my foot impatiently  I  was so curious where is Richard and where the hell the driver is taking me this suspense was killing me.

The car stopped and  I looked towards the driver dumbfounded. "Mam, you have to go instead sir is waiting for you," he said, I nodded.

I came out from the car and walked straight and saw a mansion, why the hell it's dark here. I walked inside the mansion with the help on my phone flashlight.

Suddenly  I saw a light in the mansion and it was is a projector, then I  heard Richard's voice.

"You're unique you are caring and you are the best.  I  always lose control when you beside,  you are the light of my life. I always enjoy the time I spend with you."

"You are the happiness of my life, you are the smile of my lips, I am alive to see you anytime, your cute smile gives me power, please never leave me I can't even imagine my life without you. I want to spend  all  of  life  with you, I want to grow old with you, I love you so much"

"Veronica Johnathan, will you marry me? He asked while holding the ring.

Roses started falling on me, there were pictures on the projector of our special moments, are the first date, when he asked me to be his girlfriend.

I  was turned into a crying mess I didn't expect this," Veronica, baby" I didn't realize I haven't said anything yet and Richard was still bending on his knees while holding the ring waiting for my answer.

"Yes, I will marry you," I  said while wiping my tears I was so happy and emotional. Richard stood up and came towards me and slid the ring in my finger.

"Baby,  you scared the shit out of me by taking so much time," he said making me chuckle.

"I  am sorry  I didn't mean to scare you I  was so shocked," I said.

He pulled into a hug "I love you", "I love you too" he gave a passionate kiss.

"Finally, it's time to start preparing for the wedding" I turned around to see our parents and all my friends with smiling faces.

"You guys knew about this," I asked, I was confused so it means they are not upset us any more.

"Yes,  love we knew about this and I sorry for overreacting earlier. I  so happy  for  you, you  both  have  my blessings" mom said  and  pulled me
into a hug.

"Okay, guys enough of emotional and family drama,  let's a celebration this engagement with our newly engaged dance," James said making everyone laugh.

"Shall we,  my beautiful fiancé" Richard asked while taking my hand the song was "love me like you do".
