The Wrong Woman

Candice dashed downstairs, positioning herself at the corner of the staircase, and called out to Elio's departing form, "Elio, let's get married!"

Her voice rang out clearly through the house.

The once lively living room fell silent in an instant as if struck by a bombshell. All eyes turned to Candice; shocked expressions etched on everyone's faces.

The entire household stood frozen in stunned silence.

Elio's body froze in place, trembling. Initially, he thought he misheard, but the collective astonishment confirmed the reality of Candice's words. His heart raced uncontrollably.

Turning to face Candice, Elio found her smiling sweetly, her eyes sparkling with joy, radiating a carefree demeanor as if she were a carefree child who could ignore everything as long as Elio liked her and wanted to marry her. She could bravely approach him.

Candice repeated, "Elio, let's get married."

Tears welled up in Elio's eyes. He mustered a light smile and nodded in agreement, declaring, "Yes."
