Eliana accepted the ring in a daze.

“Why are you giving me this? I know that you…”

She paused. She knew how much Eli treasured the ring.

She was sure it would take an enormous effort to make him give up the ring. How could it be so easy? She couldn’t believe it.

“I’m returning it to you. Will you keep your promise to make me another lucky ring? I want that ring instead,” Eli asked humbly.

“Of course, but this ring won’t be made out of precious material. I can’t afford something too extravagant…” Eliana did not hesitate to agree.

“That doesn’t matter to me. I don’t need an expensive ring,” Eli said. Relief slowly filled his heart that shot upwards into his throat.

‘As long as it is made by you,’ he added silently.

“Okay. But why did you suddenly agree to return the ring?” asked Eliana.

Eli had even defied Maurice in order to keep this ring. How could he give it to her so easily?

“Why do you have to ask so many questions? Hurry up and take it before I change my mind.”

Eli’s ears turned red.

He would never admit that he was so moved by the dinner that he decided to return the ring.
