Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

Chapter 288 - Proposing To You At The Sky Lounge

"I want to take you on another date. I want to reminisce with you," Oscar replied confidently. 

Hearing Oscar's excuse just now made Lisa's face flush red like a boiled crab. She still remembered that the first time she met a strange, blonde-haired, tall and slender man in her regular nightclub. Now that guy was going to ask her out at that place?

The problem was, their first meeting at the Sky Lounge was not a pleasant one. Even Lisa didn't expect to meet Oscar at a nightclub known for its hidden prostitution.

How could she, who was drunk because her ex-boyfriend had deceived her, fell into Oscar's hands that night. The meeting between the two of them was not based on love, and that blonde haired man would take her to a nightclub that left an embarrassing memory in her mind!?

Lisa's tongue felt dry. All the words in her head felt stuck in her throat. She was just silently staring at the streets of the capital, which were sparkling with street lights.

"What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?" Oscar asked, feeling the aura inside the car suddenly turn grim and awkward.

"Ehm… Actually, yes. I'm a little uncomfortable. Do you still remember that we did the most shameful thing there? What if Dimas, my friend the bartender, meets the two of us there? It must be awkward."

Hearing Lisa's explanation just now made Oscar think for a moment. He really didn't know where else to take Lisa to propose to her. He took a deep breath as the red light began to turn green. "I'm sorry, but my goal to bring you to the Sky Lounge is because I want to fix your bad memory when we first met there," he explained as he swerved to the right.

"Oscar…" Lisa gently touched Oscar's broad shoulder. "I understand you have good intentions, but I still don't know if that awful feeling from when I went there will be gone when we return to the Sky Lounge…"

"No problem, I won't force you to go there. I just want us to have fun before we officially become husband and wife again," Oscar replied softly.

Lisa was silent for a moment, thinking about whether she should just let Oscar take her to the Sky Lounge or go home. She rubbed her chin as she stared at the rows of street lamps glowing orange.

"Lisa, if you don't want to go to the Sky Lounge, feel free to say no. I'm going to turn around," Oscar said as he looked at Lisa who looked stunned.

Hearing the man's words, Lisa immediately turned her head and said, "I want to try going to the Sky Lounge again. I haven't been there for 2 years since we got married and divorced. I don't want that old wound to stay in my heart for too long."

In return, Oscar just smiled and stepped on the gas pedal then drove towards the building where the Sky Lounge was.

***

—At Sky Lounge.

Lisa hadn't visited her favorite nightclub for 2 years. Every weekend, Lisa always took the time to have fun with Andien and ended it with some sort of gossiping session with Dimas the bartender. That was when she still worked as a Petersson Communication's employee.

The building didn't appear to have changed much in the last 2 years. What changed from the nightclub was only the area for relaxing that was added and expanded. The bar table that Lisa usually stopped by was still the same as it was 2 years ago. 

When the elevator took the two lovebirds up to the top floor, the place where the Sky Lounge was located, the sound of booming EDM music immediately greeted their steps. The glint of the dazzling multicolored spotlights hit their faces like spilled paint.

Oscar handed a bag to Lisa. He lowered his head a little so that his gaze was level with her then said, "I brought you clothes to change, along with the shoes,"

Lisa grabbed the shopping bag and rushed to the ladies' room to change clothes. When she took out the dress, she was so surprised. It was the same dress she had worn when Oscar took her to dinner at a fancy French restaurant. The dress was made of black velvet with a very sexy model.

Lisa's face immediately flushed red at the black dress. But instead of wearing casual clothes it's better to wear this sexy dress, she thought.

After leaving the toilet, Lisa immediately looked for Oscar. She swept around awkwardly, looking for a foreign, blonde-haired man in black. 

That night the Sky Lounge was fairly busy. Many foreign visitors were having fun accompanied by loud electronic music and a glass of alcohol. It was very difficult to find Oscar in a sea of ??men when the place was full with tall, lanky, handsome foreign men. When Lisa stopped in the crowd, she turned her head towards the bar.

Dimas was waving his hand from the bar. Oscar was also sitting at the bar, and apparently the two men were just talking. She immediately approached them quickly.

"Dimas, oh my... It's been a long time since we met!" Lisa said cheerfully. 

"It's crazy, Lis, I thought you disappeared from earth and would never come here again," Dimas replied, looking happy to see his best friend meet him again.

"So Dim, I and my former boss want to—"

Not finished with the sentence, Dimas retorted, "Yes, I know you want to reconcile, right? Your 'imported' boyfriend here just told me," he replied, grinning mischievously. His thumb pointed at Oscar, who was resting his chin and staring at Lisa with a mischievous gaze.

"Geez Oscar, what did you tell Dimas when I was changing clothes!?" Lisa jokingly hit Oscar's shoulder.

"It was just our reconciliation plan?" Oscar glanced flirtatiously at Lisa.

Dimas just tilted his head and shrugged. 

"By the way, what do you want to drink?" Dimas asked, taking a glass deftly.

"Soju please, but just lightly this time," Lisa said, pointing out her finger.

"Give me a bottle of vodka!" Oscar said in a firm and determined voice. One of his eyebrows rose, gesturing at Dimas.

Without saying much, Dimas immediately took out a bottle of soju and vodka, handing it to the two lovebirds.

Seeing the vodka bottle that was much taller than a soju bottle, Lisa's eyes widened, looking stunned.

"Oscar… Don't tell me you want to get drunk tonight?" Lisa asked, starting to worry.

Oscar snorted, the man easily opened the cap of the vodka bottle as he poured the liqueur into a shot glass. "You doubt my drinking abilities, Lisa?" He asked nosily as he drank his shot.

Hearing Oscar's words just now annoyed her. "Duh, no need to brag just because you're from Northern Europe, and don't be arrogant!"

Oscar chuckled at Lisa's reaction. He poured more vodka into his glass, and the man's face was still not bright red.

"Lisa, remember that time when we first met here? What clothes was I wearing at that time?" Oscar asked after drinking vodka in the fourth shot glass.

"How am I supposed to remember it? At that time, I was very drunk. Your question makes no sense," Lisa replied, sipping her soju slowly.

"I still remember you wearing a tight red working shirt. Your hair was tied up at first, then you took it off when you joined the crowd on the dance floor," Oscar replied while leaning on his chin. He turned around to meet Lisa's eyes.

Lisa smiled shyly from behind her soju bottle. She drank her favorite alcohol again quickly and then sighed. "Crazy, do you still remember?"

"Be careful, don't drink it too fast or you will get drunk again and then be kidnapped by another European man," Oscar teased with a mischievous grin. He glanced flirtatiously then took his 6th shot.

Hearing Oscar's words just now, Lisa immediately hit the man's shoulder and then chuckled. "You are so annoying!"

For a while, the two lovebirds were silent at the bar table, enjoying their respective drinks, Oscar took out a small box from his pocket. The man then showed the black box to Lisa.

"Lisa, open it."

Lisa grabbed the box and opened it. How surprised and happy she was when she saw the contents of the box. 

"Oscar… this…"

Oscar held Lisa's hand gently as he said, "Lisa, will you be my wife?"
