Chương 65: Ignore them

I couldn't take my eyes off Elena. She looked absolutely breathtaking in that gown, the sapphire ring glittering on her finger as if it had always belonged there. Her beauty was captivating, and for a moment, I found it difficult to maintain my usual calm expression.

I wondered what had possessed me to give her such a precious family heirloom. The ring meant a lot to me, and giving it to her felt like crossing an invisible line that I had carefully drawn around my heart.
