The Law of Attraction

Chapter 297: Her Feelings

They both left for Luo's house but Noah stopped the car at a famous and high end mall where he usually shopped for his own personal stuff, taking Luo by a pleasant surprise when he expressed his intention of buying a birthday present for her father.

Even though Luo was helping him to select the gift for her father, she noticed Noah was an expert in shopping the best products and very soon he decided upon an exclusive and very expensive watch that made Luo gawk when she saw the price tag.

"No way! No way you are buying that!" she mumbled with shock written all over her face.

Noah raised his eyebrows at her and softly chuckled and teased, "How come you only want expensive things for yourself and not for your father? Besides, I told you… everything I have is yours once you say yes to marry me. This price is nothing compared to your agreeing to this marriage..."

'But I only, always, wanted your heart!' Luo wanted to say, but she controlled herself .

She gulped and scrunched her nose. "Fine… Okay, buy the watch if you want. You are filthy rich after all…"

Noah laughed at her cute expression, whilst she sat on the couch waiting for him to pay. She wanted to confess her love for him and didn't want him to keep thinking she did everything only for money, but suddenly thought it was still too early to confess her love.

She wanted the feelings between her and Noah to be mutual. She hadn't proven herself to him as a deserving wife yet. She wanted to put in some kore efforts first and then confess her feelings towards Noah when the time was right.

Confessing right away seemed too soon… And she felt that it was not good timing. She was scared and thought, "What if Noah rejected her love? So she wanted to work hard to make?him fall in love with her before she confessed." That was the ultimate plan she strategized.

She thought to herself, "how would I be able to make Noah fall in love with me if I only spend limited time with him?" She should live with him by now in order to follow through with her plan.

Another sigh escaped her mouth when she thought about her parents. Luo wanted to see how her parents would react, but was unsure how to disclose the news of her marriage to them.

She was fully absorbed in her thoughts and didn't realise that they arrived at her house until Noah called her. Later she would decide to balance out her parents and try to talk to them on the matter of marriage to see their reaction.

They arrived home just in time for dinner and, as expected, her parents excitedly welcomed Noah. They behaved like he was visiting them after too long a time, when actually he was there just last night.

They were sitting around the dining table when her father opened the gift Noah brought for him. Seeing the beautiful present, he praised Noah in his mind and looked at Luo with a proud smile. He was happy with the man of her choice.

"Oh, this is too much… You didn't have to buy a gift, son," He said with bright eyes.

"Ay, that looks so expensive," her mother gasped, seeing the gold watch with a skeletonizer dial. It reeked of being expensive!

"It is mom…" Luo casually commented, and she even declared the price in front of them. Both her parent's jaws dropped. They looked at each other with raised eyebrows. Luo's mother had some thoughts, but she tried to control herself in front of Noah.

Seeing the awkward situation, Luo said, "My boyfriend is very rich, you know." She casually added, amused with her parents.

Noah, on the other hand, was really enjoying watching Luo teasing her parents. The family had a very close bonding. They were all transparent, and it was adorable for him to watch how closely they bonded with each other. They did not have any hesitations to show what they feel and voice out their opinions like Luo.

'What you see is what you get'. No hypocrisy, Noah appreciated it so much. He quickly felt at home in their presence and even envied Luo for having such close and loving parents who understood her and loved her endlessly.

"You see, Noah has been investing in our family often, mom. I won't be surprised if he gives?expensive things to you too, mom… He's been asking to marry me…" Luo straightforwardly admitted.

Then added, "So he wants to gain both of your favor and marry me as soon as possible."

Noah's face turned red, as he was caught off guard with Luo's straightforwardness in front of her parents. But it was indeed the right timing. He gave the two seniors a bashful smile since their eyes were all directed towards him, waiting for his response.

He cleared his throat and said nervously, "Yes, I would like to ask for your daughter's hand in marriage." Then added, "I've been pursuing Luo for quite some time now but wanted your permission first before going any further."

Luo's mother was always enthusiastic about Luo's marriage, but even she couldn't register the words that fell from Noah's mouth.

She drank some water to calm herself down due to the sudden shock.

"Isn't it a little too sudden?" her mother finally spoke with a baffled expression.

Luo had a sweet smile on her face as she said, "I thought you would say I'm almost out of the calendar?"

Luo's mother suddenly blushed in embarrassment and scolded Luo with her expressions. Noah and Luo's father watched the mother and daughter lovingly argue with amusement.

Then they heard Luo's father cough before he looked at Noah and with a serious expression, said, "Luo is a grown up woman now and she can decide for herself. We, as her parents, can only support her no matter what it is she decides to do. But I still have one request, Noah. Luo is my only daughter, and we treasure her a lot. And we hope that you can also treasure her just as much as we do, because to us she is our life…"

Luo did not expect such beautiful words from her father. Her eyes moistened and tears rolled down her cheeks

"You're making me cry, dad…" Luo complained with a slightly choked voice. She immediately stood up from her chair, hugged her father and sincerely told him, "I love you, Dad."

"Hey, why do you only say those words to your father? Shall I say an excellent speech as well for you to say those words to me?" her mother complained in a jest. Luo laughed, hugged her as well and said, "I love you too, Darling mother."

Then she noticed Noah was staring at her intently, so she mumbled, "What? You want to hear it for you as well?"

"I love you…" she quickly said, followed by a wink, making Noah's face turn deep red in embarrassment.

He was caught off guard as those words brought up mixed emotions inside him that he could not explain, though he knew Luo only said that in front of her parents to convince them more about their relationship.

"You brat! Stop teasing Noah. Look how embarrassed he is." her mother scolded, and Luo only laughed.

Who said she was teasing? She just voiced out her feelings genuinely at the moment.
