"Why not? We were going to get married!" Alex grabbed her soft hand, holding it tightly. Her long, slender fingers were now bare, and his breathing became heavier. "Where's the ring? Our wedding ring?!"
The ring that had been on her hand just yesterday was now gone?!
"I left it at my mother's grave."
"Left it at the grave? Why?!" Alex looked at her in disbelief. "That was our wedding ring, Lily. We were going to get married. How could you throw it away?!"
"Can we still get married?" Lily turned her gaze away.
Did Alex still think they could get married?
"You believe that DNA test report? I don't believe it's true. Come with me to the hospital, and we'll get tested!" Alex, usually gentle and composed, was uncharacteristically agitated as he tried to pull her along.
"I don't want to go, Alex. Let me go." Lily tried to pull her hand free.
"That report is fake! Uncle Henry wanted to get revenge on my father, so he said those things!"
