Love the Second Time Around

Chapter 140

 

Chapter 140 So He Could Sleep Well

Dominic dragged me into the store and waved generously. He even told me to choose whatever I like.

The way he spoke got the saleslady to smile ever so brightly.

Before we got into the store, I was proudly claiming that I didn’t want anything. Actually seeing those bright, sparkly accessories bedazzled me, though.

The saleslady worked especially hard to recommend all sorts of diamonds to me. Those sparks practically blinded me.

I was actually having a hard time and thought that everything looked wonderful… with prices that match them ever so “wonderfully”.

 

Before we entered the store, Dominic made things clear and told me to forget about getting a ring. However, seeing those sparkly gemstones resting on the velvet display still got me to turn my attention over.

The saleslady was observant, and when she caught me looking at those rings, she picked a few out for me to test it.

 

I wanted to reject her offer, but my instinct overtook me. Before I knew it, I had already slipped one into my finger.

It’s stunning…

Everything became more natural after I took that first step. I ended up trying out a few rings.

Perhaps it was because it caught my eye first, but I loved the first ring I tried on.

Its diamond wasn’t as big as the others, but its design was especially breathtaking. The tiny diamonds spread out like stars in the Milky Way, and it made it impossible for me to look away.

“Your finger is beautiful, and your hand is soft, so the ring matches you perfectly. These styles fit you well. Shall we get your husband over to take a look as well?”

The saleslady’s words instantly cleared my mind up.

It didn’t matter how beautiful they were. They will never be mine.
