The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 106 All Eyes On Her

Chapter 106 All Eyes on Her

Harleen was overwhelmed with emotions as memories flooded her mind. It seemed that all the grievances and pain she had endured over the past five years had vanished in this moment, and everything she had done was worth it.

As she was in tears, 1, 800 unmanned drones arrived above the square. The central drone slowly descended and stopped near the Porsche where Heart of the Earth was parked, right in front of Harleen's eyes. At the same time, all LCD screens within the restricted area switched to close-up shots of Harleen and Heart of the Earth.

"Harleen, from the day we met until today is exactly 1, 800 days." Billy had put on his wireless earphones that were already prepared beforehand before speaking up, "For 1, 800 days and nights I have caused you so much trouble, I'm truly sorry."

"Today, I promise in front of everyone here that I will make it up to you. From now on, I will never let you suffer again. I will make sure you become the happiest woman in this world!"

"Harleen, please give me a chance to take care of you for life!"

After finishing these words, he got out of his car and walked towards Harleen's side before kneeling down on one knee.

"Harleen, will you marry me?"

His voice echoed through thousands of LCD screens and reached the ears of hundreds of thousands of people.

Almost at Billy's exact moment when he knelt down on one knee, thousands upon thousands guards dressed in brocade attire or military uniforms also knelt down simultaneously on one knees. Then they started shouting together, "Please accept Mr Gardner's proposal!"

"Say yes to him!" A woman's voice shouted from among those gathered around them.

"Say yes to him!

"Say yes to him!"

"..."

As soon as the first person responded, a wave of sound erupted from the crowd, each one louder than the last and deafening to hear. Many women were moved to tears by this scene.

Meanwhile, inside the Land Rover car, Fletcher Knight's family was also in tears. Sharon Mendoza was both relieved for these past five years and happy for her daughter at finding such a good home. Fletcher Knight couldn't control his tears either as he cried with joy at his daughter finding such a great husband.

The most exaggerated reaction came from Felicia, who had been crying uncontrollably since earlier. It wasn't until now that she finally understood why Billy had looked so strange when she told him about what happened in Enssea two days ago.

It turned out that Billy was the man who got Heart of Earth.

Besides, Felicia guessed that Billy and Casey were the ones who took down the killer at the exhibition. She had seen Casey's skills firsthand and he was definitely one of the best. It was just like what her classmate had described over the phone. And, she also understood why Billy had emphasized not to worry before when they were at home and there would be a position for their family.

The focus of the evening was on her family. Felicia felt genuinely happy that her sister could marry such a man. Perhaps influenced by the family, even Tasha seemed to be moved and tears streamed down her face.

"Why is Harleen still standing there? Agree with Billy, quick!" Sharon urged while looking at Harleen who was crying in the passenger seat.

"Say yes to him!"

"Say yes to him!"

"Say yes to him!"

"..."

The sound waves echoed again, even louder than before, reverberating through the air.

"Tasha, do you want your mommy agree with your dad?" Casey asked Tasha with a smile as they sat in the Land Rover.

"Yes!" Tasha replied loudly. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

"Tell her, okay?" Casey encouraged her. At the same time, he clipped a wireless earpiece onto Tasha's collar.

"Mommy, say yes to Daddy!"

Tasha's childish voice echoed through thousands of LCD screens. Hearing Tasha's voice, Harleen who had been crying finally reacted. Then she quickly pushed open the door and got out of the car. She hurriedly walked over to Billy and helped him up. "Billy, get up. I promise you!"

At this sight, thunderous applause and cheers erupted throughout the entire restricted area.

"Thank you, Harleen, my wife!"

Billy got up and wiped Harleen's tears.

"Don't cry, okay? Or else you won't look pretty. Everyone is looking at you, especially since there are TV stations broadcasting live, okay?"

"I don't care! I just want to cry!" Harleen threw herself into Billy's arms and began sobbing uncontrollably once more.

Inspired by the heroine tonight, a lot of ladies burst into tears as well.

"Harleen, Today is a happy day!" A few minutes later, Billy comforted Harleen while stroking her hair gently.

"Let me help you put on Heart of Earth, okay? Everyone is waiting to see it."

"Mhm, thank you, Billy." After calming her excited spirit, Harleen nodded.

Then Billy took off Heart of the Earth and put it around Harleen's neck. He couldn't help but exclaim, "You're so beautiful."

"The beauty with the jewelry is so gorgeous!" The crowd once again exclaimed in admiration.

"How come I feel like she looks a bit familiar?"

"You haven't recognized her yet? She's Harleen Knight, known as Ozin's most famous beauty!"

"Oh! It's her! Tsk tsk, only such a beautiful woman like her can match this rare world-class jewelry!"

"..."

At this point, all LCD screens showed close-ups of Harleen. Whether it was around the square or in front of various LCD screens everywhere else, there were bursts of amazement.

"Kiss her!" At this moment, someone in the crowd shouted.

"Kiss her!" Everyone echoed in unison.

"Harleen..." Billy smiled before speaking.

Before he could finish his sentence, Harleen's soft and tender lips pressed against his. Billy was momentarily stunned before embracing her and returning the passionate kiss.

Once again thunderous applause erupted throughout the controlled area and lasted for a long time.

The live broadcast was transmitted to thousands of households through television from the moment when drones appeared on scene. However, almost all shots were close-ups of Harleen and Heart of the Earth, while Billy rarely appeared in the frame. When he did appear, it was only from behind. And that was intentional on Billy's part.

At the same time, Robert Knight and his family couldn't wait to turn on the television in hopes of catching a glimpse of Heart of the Earth's performance as soon as they returned home.

As Beatrice saw Harleen put on Heart of the Earth, she dropped the remote control, and her face turned sour like she had lost everything. The rest of her family wore similarly shocked expressions as they stared at their TV screens in collective disbelief.
