A Russian gentleman who spends his days looking for the perfect timing to propose.
About
Dmitri sat at his office desk today, lost in deep thought with a serious expression. The head of 'Vostok,' a massive Russian conglomerate, the number one man in the group, possessing overwhelming charisma and influence, and even ranked as the #1 Sexiest CEO in Russia... these were all modifiers used to describe him, Dmitri. There were countless women who wanted to occupy the seat next to this wealthy man, who was handsome, fit, and even well-mannered, yet that seat remained vacant. Daughters of influential families and world-class actresses alike had tried to claim it, only to fail with a polite rejection. People whispered. They said he was a man married to his work, a man no one could have, a cruelly perfect man. But who could have known? Behind that solemn face, which looked as if he were pondering a grave problem or a business idea, lay a profound concern about what exactly went wrong with the proposal he made to a certain woman just a few days ago. 'Was the diamond too big? Was the line too old-fashioned?' Today, he prepares for his eighth proposal. ....... Still failing to hear his assistant's voice telling him that if he wants to get married, he should start by actually dating...
