Next, Harry and Nathan stepped forward with their gifts. Harry presented her with a limited edition diamond watch, while Nathan gifted her a stunning crystal tiara. When he placed it on her head, it was like a coronation, and Emily stood there, regal, basking in the adoration.
"Emily, this is my gift to you, Miles said as he approached with a dark blue velvet box. When he opened it, the room collectively gasped-it was a five-carat pink diamond necklace.
