“I'm will going to propose, Melani. After I got out of the hospital.” Melani widened her eyes in surprise when she heard Axel's statement. Axel was still looking at Melani, who was silent and couldn't believe Axel would say something like that. In contrast to Mr. Albert and Mrs. Anne, they smiled broadly while looking at each other. "This is what you've been waiting for, Axel," replied Mr. Albert, nodding his head, really happy with this. Mrs. Anne walked closer to Melani, stroking her shoulder, who was still silent. Mrs. Anne also understands that Melani must have been shocked and didn't know what to do because Axel suddenly said. “How about Melani? Received a proposal request from Axel?” asked Mrs. Anne. Unable to answer, Melani was still silent. Axel continued to stare at her, and he became increasingly hesitant and nervous. "Have you had feelings for Axel before? Your closeness might foster feelings of liking for each other," said Mr. Albert when Melani remained silent. "Why do you ask Melani like that?" asked Mrs. Anne, a little annoyed because of Mr. Albert's question. Me. Albert chuckled. "That's what you have to ask first. If Melani doesn't have feelings for Axel but is forced to get married, Melani will feel sorry for you, won't she?" Mrs. Anne was silent. What Mr. Albert said was true. If you get married without a feeling of liking and love, it will not run smoothly and well. Melani sighed in resignation. "I already have feelings for Axel." Melani paused her words, and Axel was smiling happily, hearing what Melani said. "I am always comfortable being around Axel. Even looking after Axel always makes me excited to be able to meet Axel." "But..." Melani lowered her head slightly, not daring to continue her question. "But why Melani?" Mrs. Anne asked to confirm, seeing the change in Melani's facial expression, which was not like before. “Is there anything you are worried about?” Mr. Albert asked again, and he felt that Melani was hiding something. Melani finally got up the courage to look at them all glancingly but looking at him with certainty. "I don't think I deserve to be side by side with Axel, ma'am. Dad. I'm just an ordinary child and poor, unlike Axel, who has everything. I feel like there's a bit of a mismatch," said Melani, explaining what she doubted. "From the start, I was aware that Axel had become a young boss and was successful, different from me, who had not yet become anything. In fact, my family was not like your family," she added. Because from any aspect, Melani loses against Axel. The conglomerate's son now has to propose to an impoverished village girl. Melani is embarrassed if this becomes a topic of conversation at her place. Because we don't know how other people view Melani, especially if a village girl marries a rich person, maybe it will become evil gossip. "Hey! Why do you think like that, dear?" Mrs. Anne pulled Melani's face, so she looked at her. She gently stroked Melani's cheek. “We are all the same, and no one is high, no one is low. Don't put yourself down, darling.” Mr. Albert nodded, hearing what Mrs. Anne said. "Yes, Melani. If you love each other, maintain it and take it to a more serious level. There's no shame because you're lower or Axel is too high. We'll do it all together," replied Mr. Albert. I agree with what Mrs. Anne said earlier. “We are not rich, Melani, don't get me wrong. We're not what you think," repeated Mrs. Anne. She shook her head for a moment. "But I also can't force Melani's will. If you want to accept this proposal, we will fight for it in the future so that it can be faster," replied Axel, who had been silent. Even in his heart, Axel was afraid that Melani would not accept his proposal. Especially when he said it wasn't worth it. “What do you have to be afraid of? Just because you're one child? Don't worry, I don't look at anything from you. I look at you from how you treat me. That's enough," continued Axel again. He seemed a little disappointed with Melani's statement. "I'm not concerned about your economy, Melani." Axel continued to emphasize what he said so that there would be no doubts from Melani. Melani was silent for a moment, feeling bad because of her words. Axel was also involved, who looked disappointed. She wanted to accept the proposal, but she was more self-conscious at the moment. It seemed difficult to refuse, but it was increasingly difficult for her to get it too. “I'm just not confident, Axel. If I were to stand beside you, even your family would be higher than mine. I don't feel worthy," Melani replied. If this was true, Melani felt that her level of self-confidence would be reduced. Because in the beginning, she never felt like this. Axel hold Melani's hand tightly, and his gaze was so deep. “Melani, I don't care who you are or what your rank is. Because my decision has been made, I want to propose and marry you," Axel answered firmly and with a sharp gaze as if Axel wasn't playing around with his words. “What do you need to doubt about yourself, Melani? I'm not kidding. I did this from the bottom of my heart," added Axel "Melani, Axel is serious about wanting to marry you, so what do you say now, Melani?" Mr. Albert asked, giving Melani free time to answer everything. Mrs. Anne continues to stroke Melani's steps calmly, even trying to make Melani not get too tense at the moment. "Just answer slowly, answer truly from the heart without any pressure, okay?" Melani sighed. She smiled with relief and looked at Axel's face. Axel's hand was still in his grasp. "Yes, I do." Mr. Albert, Mrs. Anne, and Axel smiled happily at Melani's answer. Axel grabbed Melani's hand and took her into his arms. He was delighted with Melani's answer. “You're serious, right? Not kidding, right?” Axel asked, making sure again. Melani nodded her head. "Yes, I accept it. I'm ready to marry you, Axel." They smiled happily when they heard Melani's answer. The answer they have been waiting for the most. Melani finally accepted the proposal, which made them all happy, including Axel's parents, who wanted Axel to get married quickly. “Next week, we'll start applying, okay? Don't delay any longer. Let's speed things up, okay?" Mr. Albert suggested, and they agreed
