“Freddie have you noticed that Mike has your color of eye?” Ethan asked.
“I wonder what Ethan is trying to imply because he can be crazy most times.
“Yeah and so what if he does?” Fredrick answered impatiently.
“He is smart just like you and he looks like someone I know” Ethan added
“Ethan you are crazy” Gold said to him
“I’m not” Ethan answered with a frown.
“Yes, you are and please enough with the jokes because it’s not funny” Fredrick said dryly.
“Yeah whatever” Ethan responded and that was when her mum and dad were called for their first dance and Gold also joined them.
After the dance the MC called on Gold to join him on stage
“Let’s make welcome the couples daughter, Miss Gold Collins to give a speech and a toast to the couples”
“I’m kinda of nervous” Gold muttered.
“You don’t have to be nervous because you are the most bravest woman I have ever met.
You can do this baby” Fredrick encouraged her with a smile
“Wow that’s nice coming from you. Thanks my darling” Gold said as she pecked his cheeks and stood up.
“Mummy, how about I get a kiss too?” Mike pouted.
“Ok honey” Gold chuckled and kissed his cheeks too.
“Now, I’m jealous” Fredrick muttered and Gold chuckled but when he looked at Austin he saw that he was fuming with anger but trying to hide it under a smile but then he winked at Fredrick who reciprocated with a frown.
Gold walked to the podium and beamed a smile.
“Wow, I’m tired of smiling” Gold complained Inwardly until a waiter handed her a glass cup with champagne in it.
“I’d like to make a toast” Gold said then she paused and looked at them to make sure she have their attention.
“I really don’t have much to say but I want to thank God for making it possible for my mother and father to be together once more.
I have always dreamed of this day, the day where I become part of a complete family once more and I’m happy it finally came to pass. Happy married life to mom and dad and I love you both” Gold said as she raised her wine glass towards them both with a smile on her face.
“So raise your glass to my dad and mom to wish them many years of health, happiness, love, and prosperity. Cheers” Gold said and they all raised their wine glasses up and took a sip then Gold walked over to her mum and dad and hugged them both.
“I love you Gold” Irene said and Collins smiled.
“I love you both” Gold replied and after the hug she walked back to her seat.
“That was a great speech”
“Yeah, thanks” Gold replied smiling softly.
“It’s time to dance so come on dance with me” Fredrick said as he stretched out his hands then pulled Gold towards himself and she smiled softly.
“My pleasure” Gold took his hands and they laughed.
“How about we dance too?” Ethan asked EllaContent protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
“Yeah, sure” Ella blushed and they joined Fredrick and Gold on the dance floor.
Fredrick wrapped his hands around Gold’s waist and pulled her closer to himself then her hands curl around his neck as they sway to the soft music playing then
stared into each others eyes already lost in the moment.
“Did I mention that you look extremely beautiful today?” Fredrick whispered and Gold blushed.
“Actually you did” Gold responded
“Falling in love with you was the best thing that ever happened to me”
“I feel the same way about you. You brought light into my life and words can’t express how I feel about you” Gold professed then Fredrick smiled.
“Now is the perfect time to do this” Fredrick said and Gold became confused.
“Do what?” Gold asked but instantly the lights suddenly went off and People started murmuring to themselves.
“Don’t tell me you are scared?” Fredrick whispered.
“I’m not” Gold replied but she noticed that the lights didn’t come on but instead a spotlight did and they were both at the center of it. It then dawn on her that he was going to pop the question and everyone gasped slightly staring at the diamond ring in Fredrick’s hand.
Gold couldn’t hide her smile as he went on his knees.
“You came into my life Gold when I least expected you would. You made me fall in love with you so deeply in just a short time and I can’t live without you Gold just like I can’t do without oxygen.
For that reason I want to spend the rest of my life with you, I want you to be the mother of my kids and I want to love and cherish you forever” Fredrick paused and smiled at her.
“Miss Gold Collins, will you marry me?” Fredrick asked and Gold literally squealed at the question. She could hear giggles and murmurs from the crowd and no one needed to tell her what her answer will be.
“Yes Fredrick I’ll marry you” Gold screamed out loud for the whole world to hear her voice. Fredrick immediately slip the ring into her finger and the lights suddenly went on.
Gold wrapped her hands around his shoulders and kissed him amidst cheers and applause then he deepened the kiss as their tongues entwined in their mouth. This kiss was just too hot as it sent pleasures down her body.
“I am his and he is mine, we belong to each other and I will love him till the end of time” Gold promised herself inwardly.
“Get a room” Gold heard mom mutter and they reluctantly pulled out of the kiss.
“Mom” Gold called blushing
“I’m so happy for the both of you. Congratulations” Irene congratulated them
“Thanks”
“Wow Gold, I did tell you he was going to propose” Ella giggled.
“Mummy, does this mean he is my daddy?” Mike asked.
“Yes honey” Gold smiled.
“Wait… What?” Fredrick asked in shock
“You are going to be a father soon so you might as well father this one” Gold said with a wink and Ethan chuckled.
“Ah, she got you there bro” Ethan laughed.
“Not funny” Fredrick huffed.
“I’m just kidding though but we still have to talk about it”
“Yeah” Gold smiled softly but they were interrupted unexpectedly by Austin’s loud voice
“I’d like to give a speech” They all stared at Austin as he walked to the podium.
“Speak of the devil” Gold said and they all focused on him
“What does he want to say?” Fredrick wondered
“Definitely not good” Ethan spoke confidently.
