“I...” the latter was at a loss for words.

Danrique introduced her right away, “You can address her as Ms. Cece. After she fully recovers, I'll start preparing for our wedding. I'll notify everyone again after the date is set.”

Francesca was thunderstruck. What? Am I hearing things? Did he just mention about our wedding? Even though we'd known each other during our teenage days, we'd not met each other for ages!
