No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 641

"This design is your boyfriend's work, right? Truly unique and stylish, matches your bracelet too," the saleswoman observed keenly. "Where's your boyfriend today? Is he coming to pick up this ring, or are you taking it for him?" she asked me again.

"I'll take it," I said, slipping the men's ring onto my thumb.

The saleswoman was momentarily taken aback by my action, then chuckled, "You know, it actually looks pretty good on you too." "Thanks!" I replied briefly, with the ring now in my possession.

Perhaps wearing two rings made me too conspicuous because as soon as I stepped out of the jewelry store, I felt eyes on me.

I spotted someone in the reflection of a car's rear-view mirror, but I didn't say anything. Instead, I let them follow me, thinking they might make a move. But they did nothing, silently tailing me for two days. This person wasn't after my money, and certainly not after me in any other way.

What were they after, then?

Only they could answer that, so I decided to turn the tables and follow them back to their hideout.

Jeremy looked taken aback when he spotted me, "Ms. Hudson, didn't expect to see you here."

"Well, shouldn't be so surprising, given Mr. Collins is in the loop about what I've been up to," I responded, earning a laugh from Jeremy.
