Looking up at her in the eyes, he confessed, "It's true that I've loved you once in my life more than myself and became crazy over you so badly that I had no idea about right or wrong. Truth to be told, I still like you a lot…"

As these words left from his mouth, Amelia let out a huge gasp..

She gaped at him unbelievably and shuddered because of the thought of Alonzo still liking Veronica even after days of their dating.

Was her luck so bad that she couldn't get the love of her life for herself?

Why everytime the person whom she thought of spending her life with, likes someone else?

She felt pain, only pain!!

It was hurting her so much as if her heart had been pierced through again and again by sharp weapons..

Her heart was bleeding internally without knowing how to stop it...

The others were also agitated with what Alonzo had said as they couldn't understood that how could a person date a girl when he still had feelings for his first love?

However, the person who should be the angriest among all of them was sitting there quietly without muttering even a single word.

Reuben was sitting there silently looking at Alonzo deeply while hugging Veronica's shoulder who had laid her head on his broad chest.

They knew that whatever people were thinking was nothing nearest to what Alonzo wanted to say..

After being in a relationship for almost five years, they had gradually learned to get a right grip on someone's emotions..

The look Alonzo was giving at Veronica right now was not a look of affection but more like of regrets which also had a ting of apology in it..

But the way Alonzo was staring at Amelia few minutes ago, was enough to convey that it was more than liking for Alonzo towards Amelia..

So they just waited for Alonzo to complete his sentence before speaking..

Alonzo turned his face towards Amelia, only to notice her tear filled eyes. He gave her an assuring smile and looked back at Veronica who was staring at him with an expressionless face.

Taking a deep breath, he finally started narrating again, "Yes.. I still do like you. But this liking is only as a friend. I just think of you as my friend from five years and I wish to remain same for the rest of my life..

So Vero.. Are you ready to befriend me again? I promise this time, I'll stick to only friendship cause my empty heart has already found someone to fill it with love and happiness."

Veronica tilted her head to her side to glance at Reuben who stared deeply into her eyes and after two or three seconds, he smiled lovingly at her while giving her a affirmative nod.

After getting his positive response, Veronica finally looked back at Alonzo.

Adorning a beautiful smile on her face, she cheerfully said, "Yes, we can be friends again for our lifetime but only if you agree to confess your true feelings to the love of your life."

Veronica pointed towards Amelia with her head, making Alonzo momentarily shocked. But he soon recovered from it and nodded his head at her with a smile.

He then turned his gaze towards Reuben and said, "I'm sorry Reuben for all those stupid bets I tried to make with you. I became blind at the time because of my revenge. You are really the most perfect life partner for Vero."

Reuben grinned at him and said jovially, "Yes, I agree that you made some really idiotic bets but I also know that you're not a bad person from your heart...

I had already told you before that you just needed to open your eyes to see through the real world. And now that you did so, your good self has come out of your hidden personality."

Alonzo nodded at him smilingly and walked towards Amelia who was looking at him with so much expectations of love that even blind people could be able to understand her feelings.

Holding her hand, he stared deep into her eyes and said, "Amy, I know you've made some mistakes but you had also suffered a lot like I did. In these few days, you became an inseparable part of mine.

Now that I think of my past life, it seemed to be totally colourless. You're the one who have filled colour in my life. So I request you to keep it colourful for my whole life."

Amelia's eyes brimmed with tears whereas the others were looking at them with an awestruck face.

After long turmoil in his heart on how to express his feelings, he finally preserved all of his courage and finally confessed, "I know it's not too much romantic like how Henry, Neil and Reuben had proposed to their girls...

But still I think that there would not be any better chance than today to profess my love to you other than in the presence of your parents and other elders..

So Ms. Amelia Jones, I want to confess in front of everyone that I love you and want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you please honor me with the identity of being your husband?

Will you marry me, Amy?"

Amelia couldn't suppress her tears at all and she pounced on Alonzo.

Hugging him tightly, he sobbed in his chest and said, "I love you too Alonzo and… Yes, I'll marry you."

Everyone became happy with the scene when Andrew suddenly spoke, "Dad, I think it's been enough of Amy's punishment as she had already apologized to us lots of time. So please forgive her and bless her for her new life."

"Yes uncle and Aunt I too think that it's high time when Amy needs to get forgiveness for her mistakes. She has changed a lot in these past few weeks. So please forgive them.." Reuben too said to elder Jones couple.
