I Became His Sweetheart by Bright Eyes

Chapter 455 Proposal

A few days later, the York family hosted a grand banquet. There were numerous guests filling the expansive hall to its limits.

Yelena adorned herself in an elegant dress, stunning even Shane and Pam. They had heard about

their mother’s beauty, but they never imagined she could be this stunning!

She looked like a figure straight out of a painting.

When Joseph instructed Yelena to take the stage, the butler turned to Melanie. “Miss Melanie, would you accompany Miss Yelena on stage?”

“Me?”

Was it appropriate for her to accompany Yelena on such an occasion?

However, it was clearly Joseph’s idea, and Melanie knew they had a plan. But seeing how much Yelena wanted her by her side, she agreed.

She simply stood beside Yelena on stage, who didn’t speak. The butler spoke on her behalf.

Melanie wondered if she was asked to accompany Yelena on stage to subtly indicate to the

audience that she was the vanguard of the York family.

After the butler introduced the lost lady of the York family who had returned, applause resounded

throughout the hall.

Yelena nodded to the audience.

Then, the butler led her off the stage, with Melanie following behind.

As they descended the steps, the spotlight remained on Melanie. Suddenly, a man rushed onto the

stage, catching everyone off guard.

With a thud, he knelt before her.
