Chapter 180 Billionaire's Lies

• As the warm chatter filled the Thompson household, Benedict sat at the edge of the dining table, lost in his thoughts. He glanced from time to time to Sabrina as she softly laughed with Wendy and Leslie and his ring that had been kept for so long. The small, velvet box felt safe in the pocket, a silent witness to the promise he had almost made-a promise that, all the mayhem notwithstanding, still burned inside his heart.
• Benedict's mind whirred with plans. The proposal had to be perfect, a moment that would erase the pain of the past and signal a fresh start for their family. Something intimate, yet unforgettable. He wanted to show Sabrina not just how much he loved her but how much he admired her strength and resilience.
• As everyone continued to talk, Benedict slipped out of the room unnoticed, walking toward the garden. The cool evening air greeted him as he stepped outside, the soft glow of fairy lights illuminating the space. He glanced around, envisioning how he could transform the garden into the perfect backdrop for his surprise.
