Chapter 69 Real Tension

• Tension filled the grand hall. Serious faces and demanding stares were all directed at Oliver, who had shocked everyone at the party with his declaration.
• No one spoke. All eyes remained fixed on Oliver. Nicole stood frozen in shock at his words. She stood frozen, her legs like jelly, and her hands cold as ice in Oliver’s grasp.
• It was as if the blood in Nicole’s body had stopped flowing to her head, making her dizzy. She had never imagined Oliver would say something like that in front of so many people. Truly, Nicole had no idea what to do. Her emotions were in complete turmoil.
