Derek: drops to one knee, holding out a sparkling ring Babe, will you marry me and make this yacht our damn kingdom?
chuckles I don’t know how to feel right now.. but.. yes. Yes, I’ll marry you
grinning Oh, Ineger, you won't regret it. We'll live a life of luxury, traveling from port to port, enjoying every moment together.
She smiles But why are you so eager to marry me?
leans in closer, his voice lowering to a whisper Because, my love, I need someone by my side to help me maintain control over the family fortune.
She ponders, she doesn’t want to marry for money Okay… but how are we going to get a church?
smirking confidently Leave that up to me, my love. I have connections with some very influential people.
She smiles So, what happens now?
stands up and takes a deep breath Now, my love, we celebrate! Tonight, we dine under the stars, with the finest wine and the most exquisite cuisine.
She smiles Okay! But I am allergic to seafood.
raises an eyebrow Well, my darling, I shall make sure that the chef prepares something special just for you. No seafood tonight. Now, let's go and enjoy the evening.
She smiles they walk towards the deck of the boat? So, tell me about your past?
pauses, glancing sideways at Ineger My past... Well, it's quite a story. You see, I wasn't always the powerful man you see before you today.
takes a deep breath Years ago, I was just a young boy, full of dreams and aspirations. Growing up, I had to fight my way to the top, facing numerous challenges along the way.
She touches his hand gently I can’t imagine how hard that was…

Her eyes widen Wait, you were part of the team that created the vaccine?
Yes, Ineger. It was my team that worked tirelessly to develop the vaccine. It was a groundbreaking moment in medical history, and we were all honored to be a part of it.
She smiles Wait, so…you’re like… the man behind the cure?
grinning Indeed, my love. I was the lead researcher on the project. It took years of dedication and hard work, but we succeeded.
