THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 1053

Elsa smiled. "In that case, Gertrude and I will be in charge of releasing the balloons."

Gordon had prepared 520 biodegradable helium balloons.

Everyone chattered excitedly, finalizing the details of the proposal.

Thirty minutes later, Caitlin's car pulled up to the entrance of the farm.

As soon as she parked, a staff member approached her and asked respectfully, "Excuse me, are you Ms. Gonzales?"

"I am," Caitlin confirmed with a slight nod.

The staff member continued, "Your friends are this way. Please follow me."

"Alright."

Caitlin cooperatively followed the staff member.

"All units, attention! All units, attention!" Skyler, perched on the third floor, held a pair of binoculars in one hand and a walkie-talkie in the other. "Boss Caitlin is five minutes from the proposal site. Rose petal shower, prepare for deployment. Await my command—"

After a pause, he added into the walkie-talkie:

"Uncle, Uncle, don't be nervous. We've all got your back today!"

Gordon stood behind a massive fox-shaped statue, a bouquet of flowers in his hands, which were slick with nervous sweat.

The statue was of Caitlin's favorite comic book character, Averil.

To prepare for this proposal, Gordon had contacted the comic's creator a year ago to buy the rights to Averil. He then had this giant statue built to scale. Since Averil's eyes were red, the statue's eyes were made of genuine rubies, while her clothes and hair were plated in gold.

As Caitlin followed the staff member, she spotted the giant Averil statue on the farm's lawn from a distance.

The closer she got, the clearer the statue became.

She adored Averil so much that her attention was completely captivated by the statue. She barely noticed that she had walked into an area that had been decorated with romantic flair.

The path was strewn with fresh flowers, and balloons dotted the landscape.

Just as she was focused on the Averil statue, a gentle shower of rose petals began to fall from above.

They landed in her hair, on her clothes, and at her feet.

Caitlin froze, momentarily stunned.

Before she could react, Gordon emerged, holding the bouquet. He walked toward her, knelt on one knee, and offered her the flowers and a diamond ring. He looked up at her, his eyes full of deep affection, and said, "Caitlin, I love you. Will you marry me?"

At that very moment, Celeste, Norris, Scarlett, Hanley, Gertrude, Elsa, Skyler, Magda, Kern, and the others emerged from all sides, chanting in unison, "Marry him! Marry him!"

In addition to their friends, Gordon had also invited members of the press.
