After wandering around all afternoon, a feeling of fatigue suddenly washed over .
anwhile, inside Sterling Norwood’s office in The Imperial Building.
Sterling Norwood sat behind his desk, facing his brothers Silvester and Spencer Norwood.
The three wore expressions of seriousness.
Finally, Sterling spoke.
He pointed to the docunts in front of him, saying, "Is this the idea you’ve both been contemplating for so long?"
"..."
Both Silvester and Spencer felt a bit frustrated.
Did their big brother forget that they’ve never been in love either!
The two brothers were truly puzzled by why they, two single guys, were tasked with devising proposal ideas for their big brother.
Yes, a proposal.
Since Selena Kensington’s graduation ceremony, Sterling had been contemplating this.
He wanted to propose on her birthday.
This was sothing Sterling had always envisioned in his heart but hadn’t been able to achieve.
Every night, while he could feel the genuine warmth of a real embrace.
Even though they had already registered their marriage, Sterling still felt a certain emptiness inside.
He wanted to give Selena a perfect and grand wedding.
To make up for past regrets.
The Norwood Family’s Lady, his wife, deserved the best, the most honorable treatnt.
But before that, he seed troubled about how to propose.
After all, if he suddenly told Selena they were having a wedding, she might be so frightened she’d run away.
Sterling picked up the contents of the docunts from the table.
"Movie theater proposal, candlelit dinner proposal, sports car with flower proposal..."
He read out the ideas that Silvester and Spencer had co up with.
His expression was full of disdain.
Spencer was on the verge of tears, "Big brother, this is already the result of and my brother gathering ideas from online."
"We two single guys really don’t understand much about this..."
Who knows how Spencer was struggling with training those Hidden Guards while searching online for proposal ideas and how to create surprises, etc.
Moreover, he had to take notes.
In the past while, those Hidden Guards were starting to look at him differently.
Spencer seed to have thought of sothing and quickly said, "With so many employees in The Imperial Building, why not gather more ideas from the crowd?"
Before Sterling could speak, Silvester gave him a disapproving glance.
"If you do that, by the ti big brother finds a thod, our sister-in-law will probably know too."
"How are you going to surprise her this way?"
Spencer scratched his head, even more at a loss for words.
However, it was Spencer’s words that gave Silvester an idea.
"Since asking the employees won’t work, why not ask the people from the branches."
"I rember Keith is an expert in this area."
Silvester suggested.
"Now that you ntion it, I rember the old man set up a group chat before, called sothing..."
"Norwood Family Baby Playground!... Ugh, just saying this group na makes want to criticize it."
Upon hearing Silvester’s words, Spencer imdiately chid in.
The ’Norwood Family Baby Playground’ group was a chat group created by the old man, in which besides him, all other mbers belonged to the younger generation of the Norwood Family.
Although they wanted to criticize the group na, it was nad by the old man, and they could only pretend as if they hadn’t seen it.
"..."
Upon hearing the group na, even Sterling’s lips slightly twitched.
But Spencer spoke well, so Sterling took out his phone.
Opened the chat group [Norwood Family Baby Playground].
[J]: How to propose?
After sending this ssage, Sterling raised his head, "Alright, you guys can leave now."
The twin brothers exchanged glances and both breathed a sigh of relief.
Great, big brother’s going to pester other brothers!
"Alright big brother, we’ll head out first."
After saying that, the twin brothers left Sterling’s office.
anwhile, the chat group [Norwood Family Baby Playground] exploded with activity because of Sterling’s ssage.
[Finn Norwood]: ?????
[Keith Norwood]: ?
[Sean Norwood]: ...?
...
[Saul Norwood]: Oh wow, the rascal has finally gotten it?
As soon as Saul sent his ssage, the branch mbers seed to realize Sterling was indeed serious, and one after another, enthusiastically shared all their lifelong expertise.
[Sean Norwood]: Take her to a place your sister-in-law likes?
[Finn Norwood]: Sean, that’s not right. Won love romance, so set up candlelights, roses, rings!
[Keith Norwood]: Tsk, you guys are la.
[Keith Norwood]: #Share: Aethelgard’s Top Ten Romantic Places#
[Keith Norwood]: #Share: The Most Romantic Proposal Ideas#
[Keith Norwood]: Big brother, have a look.
Keith quickly sent several ssages, which made Finn exclaim repeatedly.
[Finn Norwood]: Keith, you’re truly an expert in this field; an insider for sure!
[Saul Norwood]: Little Keith’s impressive, let your big brother learn from you!
[J]: ...
Sterling watched the chat group, with several ssages popping up every few seconds, silently clicked into Keith’s shared links.
The content inside was similar to what Silvester and Spencer had found earlier.
Sterling glanced at it and then exited the page.
[Spencer Norwood]: Keith, this won’t do; big brother already dismissed these ideas earlier.
Spencer jumped in as soon as he saw the ideas Keith shared.
[Keith Norwood]: ?
Sterling pondered for a mont and edited a ssage to send.
[J]: I want sothing a bit special.
[Keith Norwood]: Sothing special? Why not take your sister-in-law back to where you first t? Relive your eting mont? Sentintal girls would be touched.
Keith was unaware of where Sterling first t Selena.
If he knew Sterling first saw Selena in the nursery, he probably wouldn’t have suggested this.
Seeing Keith’s ssage, Sterling fell into contemplation.
This idea seed quite good.
He rembered the first ti he saw Selena.
Because of a baby who had just learned to open her eyes, his emotions followed hers and swayed.
That wonderful yet unfamiliar feeling, now recalled, left only warmth and gratitude.
Grateful for that decision, he welcod his light.
[J]: Whoever dares reveal this...
Sterling didn’t finish the sentence, but everyone in the chat group got the ssage.
[Finn Norwood]: Rest assured big brother! We won’t say a word!
[Sean Norwood]: Here’s to wishing big brother a successful proposal!
[Keith Norwood]: If you need any help, just let us know, big brother!
[Saul Norwood]: Ahem, I’m in too, old man!
Following was a flood of guarantees from people promising they’d keep the secret.
Sterling took a look and then closed his phone, carefully planning the proposal for that day.
He seed to think of sothing, his lips curled slightly.
He was already starting to anticipate his wife’s expression on that day.
anwhile, Selena was asleep, blissfully unaware of the ticulously planned surprise lying ahead.
