---- Chapter 575 When Jorge thought of the seemingly distant Beck, he looked at Wynn and was just about to say something when her phone suddenly rang. Wynn apologized to him, then picked up the call. "Hello?" It was Linda. She sounded extremely excited. "Wynn! We just heard that Trev spent over four billion buying a diamond a few days ago! Is he nning to use that diamond to propose to you tonight on your birthday?" 2 Wynn froze, her heart skipping a beat. Her steps stopped. 1 Seeing her expression change, Jorge immediately asked with concer, "What''s wrong?
Did something happen?" "t''s nothing." Wynn came back to herself, though her heart was still racing from what Linda said. Then, she asked Linda on the phone, "When... When did this happen? Linda, how did you find out?" "We just heard it too! When Trev bought the diamond, someone I know happened to be there. It''s over four billion! A diamond at that level is basically priceless! Wynn, Trev actually spent that ---- much money to propose to you- he treats you so well!" Linda said, still thrilled.
1 Before Wynn could speak, Lilian, who received the newster than the others and saw Linda already calling her cousin, frowned. "Linda, why did you tell Wynn directly? If you say it now, how will there be any surprises tonight?" 4 Only then did Linda realize, and she immediately regretted it. " Sorry, Wynn, I... I just got too excited. I didn''t think-"_ Lilian said, "Alright. I just mentioned it in passing. Wynn probably won''t mind anyway." What''s said was said; apologizing now was meaningless. And truly, Lilian didn''t intend to scold her too much.
After all, with how extravagant this gift was- and with Trevor choosing to propose on Wynn''s birthday- his sincerity was obvious. Even if Wynn found out early, it wouldn''t lessen the joy of the proposal atall. 4 If anything, knowing beforehand would probably make her look forward to tonight even more. Linda asked, "Wynn, really?" "Mm, I don''t mind," Wynn replied. If tonight, during her birthday celebration, Trevor suddenly ---- proposed, she would''ve been overwhelmed with joy. She would probably be shocked speechless because she never imagined Trevor would propose tonight.
After all, with Celeste dazzling him again in the Al world recently, he''d been paying more attention to her. But then again, even though he was affected by Celeste for a while, he still took the initiative to contact her to discuss divorce. '' Thinking about that, Wynn suddenly felt... Maybe it waspletely logical for him to propose now. 3 So yes- even though Linda spoiled the surprise a bit by telling her early, it didn''t actually diminish her joy or anticipation. Neither the Lockets nor the Shaws expected Trevor to propose this soon. * Especially since he was not officially divorced yet.
+ But with only half a month left before the divorce was finalized, and considering how long he and Wynn had been waiting... Even though the divorce wasn''t done yet, proposing to her on her birthday feltpletely normal.<style>
