Chapter 83

When I finally emerged from the dressing room, I noticed Carlos's eyes widen in

surprise. "Wow," he said, his voice almost breathless. "You look amazing."

"Thank you," I replied, feeling a flutter of pride at his compliment. But the lingering doubt gnawed at me. I wasn't sure I could pull off this look at Nathan and Sienna's wedding.

"Everything suits you perfectly; it all belongs to you," he continued, his admiration genuine. "But..." He paused, a glint of mischief in his eyes. "It's missing the most attractive thing."

"What do you mean?" I asked, curiosity piqued.

Carlos turned to the butler, who was standing nearby. "Bring that blue gemstone ring," he instructed. I watched as the butler disappeared into another room and returned moments later, holding a stunning ring. When I saw it, my breath caught in my throat. The blue gemstone sparkled like the ocean under the moonlight, and I recognized it immediately. "Carlos, this is incredible!" I exclaimed, awed by the beauty of the ring. I had seen it in magazines and exhibitions; it was known as one of the world's most famous pieces of jewelry-a perfect blend of the ocean and the moon.

Carlos smiled as he gently placed the ring in my hand. "I hope you have a good time tonight, Doris."

I slipped the ring onto my finger, and it fit perfectly, as if it were made just for me. The weight of the stone felt like a reminder of my intentions, a beacon of both beauty and chaos.
