Elyse cast a skeptical glance at Theo. “Do you truly know anything about him, or is this just your way of drawing me in?”

Theo chuckled, clearly frustrated. “I don’t need any excuses to get close to you. Trust me, I’ll keep my promise.”

Elyse was only somewhat reassured.

He exhaled deeply. “Actually, I wanted to give you a ring as a token of what I owed you from our planned wedding. It was my way of making amends,” he confessed.

Elyse looked towards the jewelry store and stated calmly, “Since the wedding never happened, you owe me nothing.”

Theo felt a wave of unease after Elyse spoke, worried she might be disappointed in him because of his plan.
