?Chapter 1392:


    Duncan tightened his grip on the steering wheel and asked in a tense, hoarse voice, “So, what now? Would you consider getting married?”


    Joanna sped her hands together and turned to face him. “If it’s with you, then I would.”


    Upon hearing her words, Duncan almost hit the elerator instead of the brake as they approached a stop. Thankfully, he managed to catch himself just in time and avoided a sudden burst of speed on the quiet road.


    “I…” Duncan hesitated, his throat tight as he thought about his background. “I… I’m not like Sean or the others. I don’t have power or wealth. I’m just a nobody. If you marry me, life might be hard for you.”


    “It’s okay. I have money.”


    Joanna raised an eyebrow, her gaze steady and unwavering. “As long as you’re willing to marry me, everything else doesn’t matter.”


    Her words lit a fire of determination in Duncan’s eyes. “Alright. I understand.”


    In truth, Duncan wasn’t as needy as he let on. His time as a mercenary had earned him afortable amount of savings. While he wasn’t as wealthy as the young heirs from influential families, he had managed to save millions of dors. He believed he could give Joanna the life she deserved with hard work.


    “Duncan, if you n to propose, you’d better hurry up. After seeing Sean’s proposal today, I’m moved. But if you wait too long, I might not feel the same,” Joanna teased, a mischievous smile dancing on her lips.


    Her yful remark struck a chord with Duncan. “I’ll start preparing right away. Just wait for me.”


    He couldn’t organize a grand gesture like Sean’s, but he was determined to make his proposal sincere.

    As night fell, the air between Sean and Norah heated.


    Inspired by Sean’s earlier proposal, their passion reached new heights. Norah moaned softly, her arms winding around Sean’s neck. Her eyes sparkled with mischief and desire. “Sean, be gentle…”


    Sean propped himself above her, his palms on the bed, his face hovering just inches from hers.


    Her beauty entranced him, and the longing in her gaze intensified his desires.


    “Gentle?” he murmured, his voice low and teasing. “Honey, you know I can’t promise that…”


    Their bodies moved in perfect rhythm, the intensity building until they reached the height of their passion.


    A shiver ran through them as they climaxed, leaving them breathless in each other’s arms.


    “You’re so bad! Why didn’t you prepare the condoms? What if I get pregnant?”


    Her yful tone was apanied by soft fingers tracing circles on his chest, asionally brushing against his abs.


    “I’m sorry. It’s my fault,” Sean admitted with a satisfied purr, having fulfilled his desires. He hadpletely forgotten to get new condoms after using thest ones. “But these are your safe days, aren’t they? You won’t get pregnant.” Since Norah had returned to him, Sean had habitually tracked her cycles.


    He gently rubbed her stomach, his voice tender. “Even if you are pregnant, it’s okay. We’ll get married and start our family.”
