After work, Lenora had initially planned to take a taxi to the club. However, to her surprise, Zachary care to pick her up.

She got into the car, and surprisingly, Zachary explained, "The afternoon event finished early, so I came."

Lenora nodded, gazing at the retreating street scene outside the window.

When she came back to her senses, the car had already stopped.

She glanced out of the window, realizing they hadn't arrived at the club yet.

Just as she was about to ask, Zachary had already pushed the door open and stepped out of the car.

"What are we doing here?" Lenora asked, getting out of the car.

Zachary took Lenora's hand, leading her toward the nearby chain jewelry store. "We're going shopping," he said. Shopping? For what?

Lenora was curious, but she didn't probe further.

As soon as the two of them pushed the door open, the manager of the jewelry store greeted them, beaming. "Mr. Fuller, Ms. Wilkin, please come and make yourselves comfortable in our VIP room. Let me know what kind of jewelry you'd like to see, and I'll have it brought over," he offered.

The store manager was surprised, too.

reverence.

Zachary settled down on the couch in the VIP room. "Bring me the latest couple ring designs."

"All right. Please give me a moment," the store manager said. He signaled for his staff to serve coffee to the pair, then hastily scurried off to retrieve the rings. Couple rings? Does he have a friend who is getting married?
