The Luke family was extraordinarily wealthy. Any jewelry passed down through the generations would be priceless.

Lily already felt undeserving when Grace and Nancy gave her that bracelet. What happened tonight was clearly her fault–if anything, James was the one who deserved an apology. There was no way she’d accept compensation from him.

Afraid he might actually go so far as to have some jewelry delivered to her, she rushed to speak up. “Tonight, I was the one who couldn’t tell dream from reality and crossed the line. You really don’t need to give me anything. Technically, I should be the one compensating you. But since you don’t seem short on money, I’ll skip that part.”

“Mm.”

James knew she wasn’t the kind of girl who liked taking advantage of others. Even if he insisted, she wouldn’t accept the jewelry.

He’d decide for himself which set to give her.

Emeralds were a bit too mature–she was young, and that shade might not suit her. Her fair skin would go beautifully with the red diamond set he’d kept in storage. Or perhaps the pink diamonds–those were lighter, more youthful. The earrings, necklace, and bracelet were all set with stones of impeccable cut and size.

He’d give her both sets. A double blessing–perfect for celebrating her marriage to her classmate. A wish for a happy union and a healthy child.

“Get some rest.”

Once he’d made up his mind, James turned and headed for the foldout bed.

“James…”

Lily could tell he didn’t want to deal with her.

But the doctor would be making rounds in the morning, and she had no change of clothes–just the one ruined hospital gown.

If a nurse or doctor came in and saw the state she was in, how would she explain it? Say she ripped it up fun?

She’d die of embarrassment.
