"Of course, you should keep it, what else could be done?" he said matter-of-factly, "As for how much it costs, it’s not a huge amount."
"..." Not a huge amount costs, just the set she was wearing right now, she estimated it would cost tens of millions, and if all the jewelry for today’s shoot was added up, it might well be billions.
"What, you don’t like it?" he asked.
She let out a long sigh, shook her head and said, "I really like it, but... these jewelry pieces are too expensive. I rarely wear them, it feels like such a waste."
"As long as you like it, to me, anything I give you is never a waste." As he said this, he pulled out a small jewelry box from his pocket.
Mabel Quinn immediately recognized it as the jewelry box containing the Ruby ring, which was also her wedding ring. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novelꞁire.net
"I had the ring brought over from Falling City, since it’s our future wedding ring, you should wear it during the wedding photoshoot."
"Okay." Mabel responded.
Kyle Kinston picked up the ring, and Mabel spontaneously extended her left hand, watching him slowly slip the ring onto her right ring finger.
His expression was earnest and serious, for a moment, Mabel felt a delusion, as if this moment was not just because of the photo shoot needs but was the actual wedding scene where he was putting the ring on her finger.
The red gemstone, like the color of blood, sparkled brilliantly under the light.
Mabel stared blankly at the ring on her fair finger, her thoughts turning to the ring’s past and the heavy love that the ring held.
The perfect love his parents could not fulfill, she would achieve it with him! Mabel silently told herself in her heart.
They shot two sets of indoor scenes in the morning, with Mabel and Kyle posing as per the photographer’s instructions. Mabel was somewhat uneasy, especially making some "intimate" poses with Kyle in front of everyone.
For instance, when the photographer asked them to have their faces close, as if going to kiss but not quite, while their eyes met each other’s gaze.
As a result, after holding this pose for a moment, Mabel, after locking eyes with Kyle, ended up blushing terribly. It was utterly impossible to continue with the shoot, so finally, the photographer had to compromise and let Mabel close her eyes, then they could complete the pose smoothly.
However, though her eyes were closed, it made her other senses sharper, more aware of his presence.
And even when the shot was over and she opened her eyes, she touched her cheeks, which felt burning hot.
"What’s wrong?" his lips moved closer to her ear to ask.
"Ah?" she was startled, staggered back a bit, but accidentally stepped on the wedding dress, and nearly fell backward.
His hand quickly wrapped around her waist, narrowly saving her from falling, preventing a full-on fall.
"Did I scare you?" Kyle slightly frowned, straightening Mabel up and adjusting the slightly cumbersome wedding dress for her.
She shook her head, the blush on her face slightly diminished due to the near-fall earlier, "But it seems like the shoe slipped a bit, maybe the buckle came loose."
