I was shocked and short of words, as I don't know what to say and I did know deep down in me that I can not marry Bernard, it is James that I love.
I was quiet and did not say a single word, as I looked Bernard in the face and I was dead sure that he was up to something for even attempting to ask me to marry him.
'What exactly could Bernard and his parents be up to and was this the main reason they asked us to come to eat outside in the restaurant, instead of eating at home? Now I get it clear, they had something they had been working on in the underground!' I thought all of those things to myself, as I also finally came to a conclusion on their act and what Bernard was asking me to do.
