I Didn't Save You to Get Proposed to Manhua

Title: The Unexpected Proposal As the days passed in the royal court, I found myself caught in a whirlwind of events beyond my control. I had saved Prince Alden from an assassination attempt, expecting nothing in return but the satisfaction of knowing I had done the right thing. However, he had other plans. Prince Alden's pursuit of me was relentless. Despite my attempts to keep my distance, he persisted in his efforts to win my affections. His charm, his determination, and his genuine kindness slowly wore down my defenses. I found myself drawn to him in ways I couldn't explain. One afternoon, as I wandered through the castle gardens, Prince Alden suddenly appeared before me, a nervous look in his eyes. He knelt before me, presenting a small velvet box. My heart raced as he opened it, revealing a stunning ring adorned with a glistening sapphire. "Elena," he began, his voice filled with sincerity. "I know you never asked for anything in return for saving my life. But I have come to realize that you are the one I can't live without. Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?" I was speechless. All the walls I had built around my heart crumbled in that moment. I saw the vulnerability in his eyes, the depth of his feelings laid bare before me. And I knew, deep down, that I felt the same way. Tears of joy welled up in my eyes as I nodded, my voice barely a whisper. "Yes, Alden. I will marry you." As he slid the ring onto my finger, a sense of peace washed over me. In Alden's embrace, I found a love deeper and more profound than I had ever imagined. And as we stood there, bathed in the soft glow of the setting sun, I knew that our future together held endless possibilities.
