CHAPTER 14: THE PROPOSAL
Six months passed.
Grace had started a new job, working for a nonprofit that helped victims of domestic violence. She was happy, fulfilled, and deeply in love with Dominic.
One evening, he took her to the rooftop of his building, where they could see the entire city.
"I wanted to show you something," he said.
"What is it?"
He pulled out a small box.
Grace's heart stopped.
"Dominic..."
"I know we haven't known each other long. But I've never been more sure of anything in my life."
He opened the box.
Inside was a beautiful diamond ring.
"Grace Miller, will you marry me?"
She started crying.
"Yes," she said. "Yes, I will."
He slid the ring onto her finger.
"I love you," he said.
"I love you too."
They kissed under the stars.
And Grace knew that she had found her forever.
She had gone from being a waitress to being the love of a mafia boss.
She had faced danger and survived.
