He Walked Away Because His Family Told Him To — Years Later, He Became a Billionaire and Discovered He Had Twin Daughters
Chapter 14
Daniel proposed again.
Not at a private island.
Not in a luxury restaurant.
He returned to the old apartment where they had lived before everything fell apart.
The building had been renovated.
But the small rooftop remained.
The city lights were visible beyond the railing.
Emma recognized the place immediately.
“You remembered.”
“Of course.”
He took out a ring.
It was simple.
Elegant.
Nothing extravagant.
“I don’t want the old marriage back.”
Emma’s eyes filled with tears.
“Neither do I.”
“I want something better.”
He looked at her.
“Something where we tell each other the truth.”
She smiled.
“Even when it’s difficult?”
“Especially then.”
“What about the girls?”
“They’re already planning the wedding.”
Emma laughed.
“Of course they are.”
Daniel smiled.
“I don’t want you to marry me because we have children.”
She nodded.
“I know.”
“I want you to marry me because after everything, you still choose me.”
Emma looked at the man she had once watched walk away.
Ten years earlier, she had stood in the same kind of silence wondering why she wasn’t enough.
Now she understood.
She had always been enough.
He had simply been too afraid to see it.
She took his hand.
“Yes.”
