Chapter 128
“Are you proposing?” Courtney asked, looking at Hayden
Hayden was surprised. “Isn’t it obvious? Il my leg weren’t injured, I’d get down on one knee for you,” he said hurriedly.
Hearing this. Courtney was exasperated but couldn’t help but smile at his antics. “Aren’t you going to say something?” she asked.
Hayden thought for a moment. “Courtney, I want to start a family with you, to give both you and me a home,
“I want to care for you with my whole lide. I will always be good to you until the very last day of my life,” he said
Hayden wasn’t like Austin, who could effortlessly say romantic things.
Back then, Austin’s proposal was romantic and deeply moving. To propose to Courtney, he traveled a really long way by himself just to avoid traffic delays
He ordered a lot of flowers, set up the venue in advance, and had friends trick Courtney into coming Austin said many touching things, promising to treat Courtneywell for a lifetime and love her forever,
However, the lifetime given by Austin was too short, as well the forever promised by him
Looking at Hayden, Courtney felt something indescribable deep inside. If it weren’t for her plan to take a risk and draw Lucas out, she probably wouldn’t agree to be with Hayden
She had feelings for Hayden, but the feelings were complicated. Having been hurt by love before, she protected herself and was unwilling to embrace any new emotions
However, when Zaid’s knife cut her throat, and the news of Hayden’s disappearance came back, she suddenly realized that people must appreciate everyone and everything worth appreciating, even if only for a brief moment.
People never knew which would come first, tomorrow or an accident, so she didn’t want any regrets, nor did she want Hayden to have any regrets.
Hayden was an orphan, and he had endured so much. However, he was so brave, and he was a hero, who deserved to have everything he wants. Courtney wanted to make his dreams come true, as well as her own.
Courtney thought, “To protect me always, until the end of time, the vow is quite unique.
Courtney raised her hand towards Hayden. “Then put the ring on me,” she said.
Hearing this, Hayden paused for a moment, feeling a wave of emotion. His throat tightened, and his fingers trembled.
His fingers hadn’t healed completely yet. The joints were still swollen, so his trembling hands couldn’t hold steady, so Courtney leaned forward, slipping the ring onto her left ring finger.
“Someday, we’ll get a style you like,” Hayden whispered, who was worried that Courtney might not like the plain one.
“I like it. I have to take it off for work, so I’ll buy a chain to wear it around my neck,” Courtney replied, waving her hand.
Hayden looked down and chuckled softly “I can’t wear it now either. if I’m on a mission and the enemy finds out I have loved ones, it could be dangerous,” he explained.
Courtney picked up Hayden’s ring and tried to put it on him too, but his swollen fingers couldn’t fit it.

Hayden looked at Courtney, and then pulled her into a tight hug, resting all of his weight on her “I don’t want to know why you suddenly agreed to marry the. No matter what the reason is, I don’t want to know,” he said.

certain it wasn’t love
“But I’ll work hard to show you. I’ll make you fall in love with me,” Hayden said, looking like make a promise
“Okay” Courtney responded softly
“Courtney, are you really willing to marry me? Have you made up your mind?” Hayden asked as his grip on her tightened even more.

“From this morning, I let you think it over until noon,” he said, giving her time to change
Once they went to the courthouse in the afternoon, there was no turning back.
Hearing this, Courtney just smiled without saying anything.
Hayden was quite anxious until lunchtime, since he was nervous that Courtney might back out and afraid she’d suddenly decide she didn’t want to marry him
Actually, he was also really scared that Courtney still had feelings for Austin and that Courtney only felt grateful to him.
“Shall we head out?” Courtney asked. At 1:30 in the afternoon, she had already changed into a white shirt and had also chosen some suitable clothes for Hayden, gently urging him to leave.
Hayden looked up at Courtney a few times and asked in a low voice, “Are you really sure about this?”
Courtney nodded.
They went to the courthouse together, which was conveniently close to where they lived, so they decided to walk.
“Hayden, once we get our marriage certificate, we can be registered in the same household, Courtney said. Looking at her newly issued certificate, she felt a bit lonely by herself. Hayden’s certificate was also just as solitary
These two lonely souls seemed to have finally found comfort in each other’s embrace, sharing warmth and solace.
“Courtney, Fil always be around you,” Hayden said, holding her hand tightly.
“But because of my job, I can’t give you a grand wedding right now,” Hayden admitted, feeling a bit guilty for not being able to give Courtney the very
best
He wished he could take the moon down from the sky for her.
He wanted to give Courtney a grand wedding, one that everyone would hear about, making it clear that Courtney belonged to him and that Courtney was his wife, and everyone should stay away in the future.
However, Lucas was still at large, so Hayden’s mission wasn’t finished yet. His identity had to remain confidential for now, which was the undercover operation’s rules.
