Chapter Seventy-One: The True You
"You're demanding marriage." Hinata said calmly, though her eyes betrayed her fury.
Hiashi tilted his head, "The Elders do, I did what I could, but the decision remains."
Hinata noticeably cooled down but seemed to sag where she stood.
"If I may," Sasuke said, his eyes still swirling red but his demeanor calm, "I wish to petition for Hinata's hand in marriage."
Hinata's head whipped up and she looked at him, shocked. He didn't look at her, but maintained steady eye contact with Hiashi.
Her father's lips twitched as he replied, "I thought you might."
