Chapter 218 Andrew remained unaware of the conversation between Silas and Elsle .

Even if he had known , he probably would not have cared .

Back so soon , Dr.

Lloyd ? Dont tell me Ms.

Santana didnt ask you out ? Lauren teased , batting her eyelashes at Andrew .

I dont have time for that , Andrew replied with a weary sigh .

Lauren pouted .noveldrama

So she did make a move on you ! Hmph ! Shes got some nerve trying to compete with me for a man shes way out of her league .

Andrew , Elsie is the belle of the Radiant Group , Francesca chimed in .

Shes the most sought -after woman in Jayrodales elite society , with several prominent family heads vying for her hand in marriage .

Why did you turn her down ? Andrew shrugged casually .

Im not interested , and we barely know each other .

Simple as that .

Francesca laughed .

Well , thats quite straightforward of you .

But if word gets out , playboys like Finley and Michael will say youre unappreciative ! Harveys probably itching , to propose to Christina with that diamond crown he won , Lauren remarked .

I bet thats his next move .

Francesca sighed .

The Weller family is already on shaky financial ground .

Harveys really going all out to win Christinas heart .

Lauren shot Andrew a pointed look .

Dr.

Lloyd , would it break your heart if Christina accepts Harveys proposal ? Her choices are her own business .

I stopped caring long ago , Andrew replied coldly .

Francesca shook her head .

If Christinas smart , she wont choose Harvey .

The Weller family is too ambitious , and if she marries into their family , the Stevens Corporation might not st under the Stevens name for long .

all her Andrew let out a bitter laugh .

Dont worry , Christinas plenty smart .

She thinks all decisions are perfect .

She probably believes marrying into the Weller family will lead the Stevens family to greater heights ! At the luxurious Centennial Gardens , the most expensive private venue in Jayrodale , flowers bloomed everywhere under twinkling lights .

Harvey had rented out the entire place for the evening .

Christie , on this beautiful night , I want to express all the love Ive held in my heart for you , Harvey declared , dropping to one knee and holding up the newly acquired diamond crown .

Chapter 212 My queen , marry me .

1 , Harvey Weller , swear Ill give you a lifetime of happiness and lead the Stevens Corporation to even greater glory ! Besides Harveys hired entertainers , Irene and Leroy were present .

Irenes eyes gleamed at the sight of the diamond crown , and she urged , Christie , Harvey is showing such sincerity .

Hes even offering you a multi million dollar crown ! You should accept his proposal ! Exactly , Christie , say yes to Harvey , Leroy added with an enormous grin .

Look at this proposal crown its so luxurious and high class .

Only someone from an elite family like Harvey could afford something like this .

Harvey was feeling extremely pleased with their comments .

Christie , I promised you an unforgettable proposal , and now Ive delivered on that promise with my own capabilities ! Christina stood on the lawn , looking troubled .

Harvey , Im sorry , but Im afraid I cant accept your proposal .

Harvey chuckled , maintaining his sincere gaze .

Christie , I know youre just overwhelmed and nervous , which is making you hesitant .

Thats alright .

I can wait until youve calmed down a bit before you say yes to my proposal , he added confidently .

Irene laughed .

Christies just excited and shy , Harvey .

Just wait a moment shell definitely accept your proposal .

To everyones surprise , Christina firmly rejected the notion .

No.

Im neither excited nor nervous right now .
