Chapter 297 Marry Me

Following that, Zachary buried his head into Nicole’s shoulders as his voice trembled. “Nicole, I’m scared. When I

tried to pursue you back then, I didn’t care about how you reacted because I knew that even if you rejected me,

you wouldn’t have accepted anyone else. But now, things have changed. You and Colton share Hayden now… I…”

Nicole was a little amused hearing the trembling voice by her ear. She knew exactly what he wanted to say and

lightly pushed him away before consoling in a serious tone, “Zach, I don’t like Colton. Even if the Gardners

acknowledge Hayden as a part of their family, I won’t move in with them.”

As soon as he heard this, his tense face had finally eased a little.

His eyes were slowly taken over by seriousness and his fear dissipated as he bluntly proposed. “Nicole, will you

marry me?”

Taken aback by his sudden proposal, she looked at the man before her with a confused and strange look.

However, Zachary continued to grasp both of her hands and urged, “Nicole, I didn’t feel any sense of urgency

before this, thinking that I could take my time with you. But now, I’m worried that if I don’t hold onto you, I might

lose you.”

Nicole watched the panic grow across his face as her throat tightened. He’s afraid that I might end up with Colton…

After a slight change of expression, she gently answered, “Zach, I won’t fall for Colton and the Gardners would

never accept me either.”

She took the time and paused to look at Zachary whom she understood had sacrificed a lot for her.

As if her words were earth-shattering, he lifted his head in disbelief, and his lips began to waver after a long while.

Maybe it was because this was the first time that he had gotten a response out of her.

Almost immediately, Zachary pulled her into a hug with a joyous face. “Nicole, that’s great. I-I don’t even know

what to say.”

Nicole looked at the delighted man before her and reached out to hug him while gently patting his back, as if she

was comforting a child.

“Zach, you don’t have to give anything up for me. You can do whatever you like, be it F&M Apparel or your family’s

business.”

He grinned as he took a few steps back and nodded. “I understand. I need to be strong before I can protect you.”

Nicole was speechless as she was taken aback by his interpretation. However, she brushed it off seeing there was

nothing wrong to believe so.

Zachary’s goal was clear; with the circumstances he was in now, it would be difficult to even fend for her at all. Just

like what had happened with F&M Apparel, he failed to do anything once his father pressured him.

What he had to do now was to build a name for himself so that he could be powerful. Once he reached the top, no

one could walk over him and he would be able to live a carefree life with her.

Still, his father was against his relationship with Nicole. Even if Nicole agreed to marry Zachary, he had no real way

of bringing her into the family. At this stage, the most important thing was to win over his father.

It was this very moment that everything became clear to him.

He looked at Nicole as he studied her face intently. He was going to seize this opportunity to firmly hold her in his

hands!

“Nicole, give me some time and I will make sure to give you the marriage you deserve,” he assured.

Her eyes flickered upon his promise as she failed to find the words in response to his fervent love. To be honest, if

she was to find anyone to spend her life with, her first choice would definitely be Zachary.

There was no doubt that she had a good impression and feelings toward him. However, she had never thought of

marrying him.

In other words, she had no intention of marrying any men at all!
