As I looked at the ring that had been my companion for three years, my throat tightened with emotion. The joy I felt when I first wore it was equal to my sorrow.

Clyde could never truly understand how I felt, and I had no expectations for him.

"Melanie, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were hypoglycemic. You must have been scared. That was why you sold the ring, right? I've had Gemma transfer a million dollars into your account. You can use it however you like and don't need to pawn anything anymore."

Clyde stood up, looking at me with deep affection, even attempting to slip the ring onto my finger again. I stepped back immediately, my eyes void of any emotion.

He had found the ring according to Jade's instructions and even redeemed it for me, but he never bothered to find out what was wrong with me. I wasn't sure whether to be happy or sad. It seemed he wasn't so concerned about my condition, yet he pretended to show deep affection.

Seeing my reluctance, he pulled a large diamond ring from his pocket, the one he gave me for our anniversary. "I bought this ring for you. It's only too big because you've lost weight, it wasn't meant for anyone else."

He stubbornly pushed the ring into my hand. I hesitated as I looked at the ring. He seemed to make sense, but I didn't care anymore.
