THE SWEET TASTE OF LOVE (ENGLISH VERSION)
Chapter 21

"GOOD EVENING, ladies and gentlemen. May I take your attention please!" Stevia announced. The attention of all of his guests immediately turned to him.

"Tonight it's a very important night, because one of my favorite friends, Clark Generoso, has something important to say." He walked towards Clark and Tamara.

Tamara feels different, like she will sense what is going to happen. Her chest is pounding and she thinks Clark is going to do something. Her mind was screaming, "He's going to propose to me." When Stevia approached, she immediately gave the microphone to Clark.

"Congratulations both," he said.

As Stevia said, Tamara's suspicion was correct; her heart began to race.

"Thank you so much, Stevia," Clark whispered to him.

Stevia smiled at him. "Do it perfectly well," he whispered too.

Clark nodded to him and he turned to Tamara.

Tamara's heart rate increased as she assumed the identity of Clark.

"Hello everyone's I will take this moment. I hope you won't get bored because I'm going to go a bit long.

"Do it, Clark. We are excited to hear," the people responded.

"Did I already say that? "Hmmm, there is a wedding proposal."

"Shut up and do it!" Carmina is so annoyed. Yeah, her friend was right, Clark, like he was going to propose to her. "Tamara, listen to me until the end. It's okay to replace out what my plan was before. Please be understanding, promise me."

What else can Tamara say? She just nodded. She knew that Clark wouldn't hurt her.

"I said to myself, that I only want a baby."Being a father without a mother this is what I wanted from the beginning, because commitment to a woman is not my a cup of tea. So, I thought that I would just look for a woman who was willing to give me an irreplaceable child. But when I met her, my plan disappeared as if blown away by typhoon. She destroyed my mind about my plan. All storms return to where they came from. I thought they would destroy what was already broken, but no, I just thought that I don't just need a child, but I need her in my life. Because I loved her the first time I saw her dancing with me in Obando, it turns out that I want a child and a mother too. Yeah, I went to Obando to have a child. This is what my doctor advised because of the length of time. Why couldn't I even produce at least one? He said there was nothing to lose if I tried. Then I did it. So, I'm with... " He stopped speaking and looked at where they were, Carmina.

"You are, Carmina?" her friend said.

"Who else!"

"What happened? Why is that woman Clark danced with, "Carmina?"

"SHUT UP!" she said emphatically, adding that she couldn't tell the truth.

Her friends just shrugged.

"No need to mention her." He looked back at Tamara. "When I go to Obando, I see the woman who will be the mother of my children there. Now I believe that there really is a miracle in that place because I know that he will not only give me a child but also the woman with whom I want to spend the rest of my life. That's you, Tamara. I love you! I know you don't believe it, but I will assure you, I will love you with no other woman involved. I have something to ask you, honey. Do you love me too?"

Tamara's tears welled up. Her response was a nod. Her voice can't come out; she feels overwhelmed because of Clark's rebellion.

"Tell me you love me, honey; I want to hear it from your sweet lips!" He wiped the tears that flowed down Tamara's cheeks. I'm sorry I made you cry. But it's okay, right? They say it's tears of joy. Not that I hurt your feelings. But of course, hurting you isn't going to happen, I will promise.

People smile while watching them. Some of the guests know Clark. They don't think that he's serious when it comes to love. Well, they know him. His attention is really focused on women.

"Oh, if I am that woman, my gosh, I will shout that I love him."

Carmina directed a sharp look at her friend, who spoke.

Don't give me that kind of look, Carmina. If Clark said that to you, you said "yes right away."

"Shut up and do it!"

You say so! I'll just feel the thrill of both of them. " Her grin widened.

"Honey, say it please!" Clark held her cheek.

"Yes, I love you." Because Tamara was shy, she hugged him to hide her face as many were staring at her. She was used to a lot of people, but now the audience was different.

Clark hugged her too. He was smiling. It's okay, honey. I know how you feel. He caressed her hair to relax and make the feeling of shame go away.

Stevia took the microphone from Clark and spoke.

"Clark, do it for the highlight now. I'm so excited, you know!"

For five seconds, Clark signaled to Stevia for Tamara to relax herself.

Stevia nodded but instead looked at the watch and told the two. "Five seconds done." Time has come, Clark."

Clark let Tamara go from his grasp."Are you okay now, honey?"

"Yes," Tamara replied.

Clark takes the small red box from his pocket. He opened it. I do not see myself as a married man. But when you came into my life, Tamara, everything changed. Even though we knew each other not too long ago, in my heart, I already knew you for a very long time. That's what I felt. And I started to build a happy family with you. Now, honey." He knelt down. "Will you marry me?"

Tamara didn't think Clark would do it. Her muscles that she had felt a while ago became even softer to protect herself in case he fell. He also knelt down in tears. "Say yes, honey!"

"Yes, I also want to be with you forever. Thank you, and you truly loved me. I love you, Clark Generoso!"

"I love you so much, Tamara!" He wore the ring to her finger. Is like perfectly really made for her.

"Kissss! "Kissesss!" People screamed.

Clark stood Tamara up. From now on, you are mine, honey. No one can take you away from me, soon to be Mrs. Generoso."

"Kiss!" Stevia shouted.

Clark looked at it. "You're too excited, Stevia." He grabbed Tamara by the waist. "You heard what they said, right, honey?" he whispered to her.

Just a heads up: Ebookex.com is the only place to read the complete version of this book for free. Don't miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey! Tamara nodded and smiled.

"What are you waiting for, Clark? "Kiss her now to seal your proposal." Stevia shouted again.

Clark shook his head and pointed at Stevia as if to say, "Really, you are excited."

Clark immediately accommodated the crowd and occupied Tamara's lips.

"They are meant to be, Carmina. Clark is not for you. But don't worry, someone will come into your life. They say if someone leaves, someone will come, right? " her friend's advice. Carmina did not answer her friend as she hurried out of the gala party.

Let's follow her. She's broken hearted, so what if she does something else?"

"Let her, Carmina, know how to handle her feelings." Come on, let's congratulate the two."

The three headed towards Tamara and Clark.

When Carmina entered the car, she screamed loudly, but she couldn't stop the tears from falling. She hurt so much. She loves Clark. But from what she saw earlier, Clark seemed like a different person. He really loved that woman for real. She wiped her tears. Her friend was right when she said earlier that she and Clark were not meant for each other. She started her car and left.

Even though Tamara is shy around people, she smiles at everyone who greets them, but she feels happy when she looks at Clark.

"It's like a dream, but it's true that Clark Generoso loved me." Her sweet smile flashed when Clark looked at her.

"Lovely smile, honey!"

This smile is for you, honey. You made me happy. There is an emphasis on her honey.

Clark hugged her again. "Me too, honey, you made me happy." Only now does he feel this kind of happiness. It is really real what is happening in his life now. Finally, the right woman came into his life. He thought it wouldn't happen because his heart was crooked. It's true what they say that one day you meet your soulmate or a woman destined for you.

When Clark kissed her again, Tamara responded wholeheartedly.

The people who were looking at them just ahh'd coming out of their mouths.
