Unconscious Husband: Meet Her Love In Silence by Ken Slaner

Chapter: 574
Theodore spoke patiently, his eyes filled with depth, capturing her gaze and refusing to release it. “Although we were married,
you mentioned feeling a lack of reality.
During our wedding, you were the sole participant, as I had no part in it. So, I wish to make amends and start anew with a
proposal.”
His heartfelt words held her captive, rendering her unable to avert her eyes.
“Ariana, will you marry me?”
Ariana found herself momentarily entranced. Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine hearing those words from him.
Noticing Ariana’s prolonged silence, Theodore tenderly took her hand and slowly slipped the ring onto her slender finger.
Before he could finish placing it, she snapped out of her daze, clenching her fists and rejecting the ring. She sneered, “Is this the
birthday gift you’ve prepared for me?” ©
Theodore was momentarily stunned before replying, “No, had planned a proposal, but it was canceled.” ©
Ariana regarded him with indifference. “I think we both know why it was canceled.”
Theodore quietly gazed at her, offering no explanation.
Ariana repeated to herself to remain calm and speak kindly. It was her birthday, and with so many people around, quarreling
wouldn’t be appropriate. ©

Yet, she couldn’t shake off her disappointment.
Why didn’t he tell her the truth? ©
His nonchalant demeanor frustrated her. If Theodore didn’t provide a clear explanation about what had transpired between him
and Marley, she couldn’t find it in herself to get along with him. ©
“and where is your gift for me? Or do you have something else to say?”
Theodore remained silent for a moment, disregarding her anger. He retrieved a larger velvet box and gently pushed it toward her.
“Open it. I believe you’ll like it.”
Ariana opened the box to reveal a bracelet adorned with numerous sparkling small diamonds and a large purple diamond
fashioned in the shape of vines. At the edge of the clasp, there was a nameplate intricately designed in the form of a small key.
“| designed it myself and have been preparing it since last month. Your name is engraved on the nameplate.” Theodore spoke
softly, his gaze filled with tenderness.
“Allow me to put it on for you.”
This time, Ariana didn’t refuse. She simply let Theodore fasten the bracelet around her wrist. She couldn’t bring herself to reject
the gift. After all, it was his own design.
She pursed her lips, her fondness for the gift evident in her expression, even without uttering a word.
