Chapter 474 Steven hesitantly began, his voice hinting at embarrassment. “I'm thinking of proposing to Annie. Do you have any good ideas?" Skylar furrowed her brows slightly. "Why the sudden urge to propose?" Skylar knew he was not usually one to act impulsively. After all, Steven had only been with Annie for a little over a month. They were still in the getting-to-know-each-other phase.
Skylar wondered why Steven suddenly wanted to marry Annie. She pondered whether Steven really liked Annie that much.
"It's not sudden. I've been thinking about it a lot recently. Sometimes, relationships between a man and a woman are just that mysterious. At first, I couldn't understand why you rushed into marriage with Joe, but now I think I do," Steven explained.
Skylar couldn't manage a smile. She felt she had set a bad example for Steven.
"Steven, our situations are different. Grandma Gloria arranged my marriage to Joe, so we married without any emotional foundation. Until now, we haven't developed any feelings for each other.
"We respect each other like roommates. It's more like a respectful cohabitation, really. But you... I know you like Annie. But in my opinion, proposing now might be a bit premature.

"I'll start preparing, and I'll propose to her when the tis right. Skye, you're a woman, so you'd probably know what she'd like. Letknow if you have any ideas." Steven was brimming with anticipation for the future, especially the prospect of spending his life with Annie.
"Steven, have you met Ms. Silver's family yet?" Skylar asked in a hushed voice.
Given Annie's background, the Silver family would never have agreed to her being with someone like Steven, who lacked a prominent family background.
