章 213: Had I known

Sebastian paused the moment he tore his gaze off hers and looked down. The sight of her ring – the silver ring he had given her that day of their civil wedding – made his jaw clenched. 

He had never paid attention to it before, but he knew that she had always been wearing it. And the sight of it now had him feeling like he just wanted to go back to the past and hit himself up the head for it. Because this silver ring had been a cold, lifeless jewelry without any significant value to him at all. In fact, it was given to him by Lucas at the very last minute after he had found out that Sebastian had not prepared any ring for his bride on their wedding day! And Sebastian never even asked where he had even gotten it from. 

"I'm taking this off." He told her hurriedly, causing her to blink, snapping her out from her trance.
