After bravely and quickly following the direction of the arranged candles, Fiolet finally arrived at what she felt was the last room because the candles no longer formed a straight line but rather a heart shape.
Upon arriving in that room, she saw Bryce standing gallantly in front of her, smiling sweetly.
"Bry... Bryce?" Fiolet whispered softly.
"Hmm..." Bryce replied in a low tone.
Still feeling scared, Fiolet ran towards Bryce quickly and hugged him tightly while sobbing.
"Hiks... hiks... hiks... I was scared, Bryce. After realizing that I was alone in here with the surroundings getting darker. I wanted to scream and call for you because you were gone too... hiks... hiks..." Fiolet said with her eyes closed, pouring out her frightened feelings while crying.
Bryce, who received her hug, hugged her back tightly because he felt Fiolet trembling heavily from fear of the darkness. He cursed his own ignorance for not knowing that she was afraid of the dark, and in his plan this time, he made his beloved girl cry for the first time in front of him. He comforted Fiolet to calm her down.
"Shh... it's okay now. Don't cry anymore, beautiful. I'm here now, so don't be afraid," Bryce comforted Fiolet, who was still sobbing in his embrace, occasionally bowing to kiss the top of her head and gently stroking her shoulder.
After feeling calm again, Fiolet shifted her gaze around the still dark restaurant. As if understanding the thoughts of the girl still in his warm embrace, Bryce whispered to Fiolet.
"Fiolet, can we release this hug for a moment and continue it later?" Bryce asked softly, afraid of upsetting Fiolet.
Upon hearing this statement, Fiolet immediately released her hug and felt embarrassed for daring to hug the man in front of her so boldly.
While Fiolet was still contemplating her embarrassment, the lights suddenly turned on, and she could see all her family members and some unfamiliar faces looking at her with sweet smiles, but their positions were not the same as her family's. But among the people Fiolet saw in front of her, she could see a man who was the same age as her daddy with a face that slightly resembled Bryce.
"Mommy... Daddy... Brother... why are you here? Did you also get trapped in this restaurant?" Fiolet asked with concern.
They just laughed after hearing it, and Yung, Fiolet's older brother, said something to Fiolet that surprised her.
"We are all here at the request of the handsome man next to you, little sister," Yung said honestly.
Fiolet turned to the side to verify the truth with the person in question. When she turned her body to the side, she didn't find Bryce's presence beside her.
"Behind you, baby," Bryce said.
When Fiolet turned her body back, she was surprised to see Bryce kneeling with a beautiful diamond ring directed at her. Not only that surprised Fiolet, but also the presence of Bryce's parents who had shown Bryce's pictures. What surprised her even more was when Bryce loudly proposed to her in front of their families.
"Do you want to marry and grow old forever with me?" Bryce said, who was still kneeling while showing the ring in his hand to Fiolet.
Fiolet, who received that question, was immediately moved to tears. Before answering Bryce's question, Fiolet turned and looked at each of her family members as if asking for their approval.
All her family members nodded while smiling sweetly.
Fiolet then turned and looked at Bryce's parents, who were smiling and nodded their heads kindly at her.
"Hmm... Bryce, forgive me...," Fiolet said to Bryce with her head down as if showing her guilt.
Bryce and everyone who heard it were surprised because they considered Fiolet's earlier statement a sign that Fiolet did not accept this proposal.
Bryce, disappointed, tried to smile narrowly as he was still kneeling because he felt he was too confident that Fiolet also loved him.
"All right, forgive me for being too confident to propose to you so quickly because I thought you also had feelings for me... You could..." Bryce said, cut off.
"Forgive me, Bryce, because I can't refuse your proposal and want to live forever with you," Fiolet said, making all the eyes that looked sad before now change to eyes full of happiness.
Bryce who heard the answer scowled looking at the face of this beautiful girl in front of him with a questioning look. Seolah hinted at her confusion with Violet's answer and made sure that she hadn't misheard it before.
Violet who saw it was also slightly chuckling with her eyes bulging and ready to flow anytime. Violet shook her head, as if to give an answer that what Bryce had just heard was real and not just the man's imagination.
Bryce who got that answer immediately put a ring on Fiolet's right sweet finger.
Having finished putting the ring on, Bryce immediately stood up and hugged Fiolet tightly as if afraid someone would take this girl away from him.
"Hiks..hiks.." sobbed Bryce faintly and the thing poked making all the eyes that were staring at them before with happy looks now replaced with shocked looks. It was as if what happened in front of them was just a dream because Bryce cried.
Yes..Bryce who was known for his cold attitude towards all women is now crying because this girl in front of him wants to accept him as her life partner later.
"Ehh..why are you crying hmm..?" Violet asked while gently rubbing Bryce's big shoulder.
"Hiks…I thought you were going to reject me already and I had felt hopeless because I was disappointed to hear it,"Bryce replied then tightened his hug again and placed his face on Fiolet's neck while slightly sobbing.
"How could I reject you , when I've also loved you so much since we met," Violet revealed to Bryce.
"I've also loved you so much since the first time I saw you back then. I love you Fiolet," Bryce said loudly in front of everyone present.
"I love you more , Bryce." Violet replied and again hugged this man of hers tightly.
Everyone who heard it felt that Bryce and Fiolet’s love was not playful but a serious love. Following the application event attended by the families of both parties present, it’s now time for them to fill their stomachs that already sound begging to be filled immediately.

Today was Bryce’s third day in country A. He was also getting to know Fiolet closely.
Bryce planned to break the news that he was dropping a girl here to both of his parents who were in London.
Ring...ring...ring..ring..
The phone sounded belonging to Bryce because he was making a video call to his mom.
"Hello , son. What's the news ? Why did you call mom late at night?" Rosey said , as she wondered why her daughter was calling herself now.
"Hi mom, my news here is good. I wanted to tell you two something. Is dad with mom now?" Bryce asked.
"Oh…dad is next to mom, why ? Did something happen there?" Rosey asked feeling worried at her boy.
"Yeah , I wanted to tell you about what's been going on here and my plans for a few more days ," Bryce replied.
Bryce even told about Fiolet to both of his parents via video call. Freddy and Rosey who were listening were shocked and then smiled happily because their daughter already wanted to build a relationship with someone.
After hearing the story and the plan that Bryce wanted to make his future , they both agreed to the plan without much question.
