Insisted Quote by Elena Greene
““I’m not the slightest bit foxed,” he insisted, indignation lighting his vivid blue eyes. “I am perfectly serious. Will you marry me?” “No. I still cannot believe you are asking me. You must be drunk, but don’t worry,” she said in a soothing tone. “I promise to forget what you’ve said by tomorrow morning.””
