Luke said that he wanted her to accompany him in selecting the ring, but the ring was already
customized according to Alice's size and the style he preferred.
Katherine could tell at a glance that the ring was custom-made for Alice.
She looked at him with a meaningful smile.
"You brought me out today on purpose, right?" she teasingly asked.
"No."
Luke tilted his head and cast a glance at Katherine.
"Alice has no relatives, and she has always treated you as her sister.I understand your concerns, which
is why I brought you out today to tell you that I love her and that you can be confident in leaving her for
me.You don't have to worry.If one day I mistreat her, you can take her away.'’ Katherine was taken
aback for a moment before looking at him with a smile.
"Although you used polite and formal words, you still showed me so much affection for Alice.Anyone
would be envious if they heard this” she teased.
Luke also smiled and took the ring that the clerk had wrapped.
"Can we have lunch together?" he asked.
Katherine smiled as she shook her head.
"I'm afraid that if we ate together, our surprise would be revealed,'' she meaningfully said.
Although there were fewer paparazzi following her at the time, it was difficult to say that some
individuals were not bored of watching her and prying into her life.
Furthermore, they now had a different setup.
Luke and Katherine bought a house and selected rings.
If they shared a meal, she might be referred to as Luke's girlfriend once more.
"I see.Shall I drive you home?" Luke offered.
"There's no need.I can manage on my own” Katherine said and waved him goodbye.
Luke did not say anything else.
He nodded and was the first to leave.
Katherine glanced at Luke's back, and when she saw that he had left the store, she turned to face the
clerk.
"Do you have a ring for a single woman?" she asked.
The clerk was quite taken aback.
He probably didn't expect such a lovely lady to be single.
But upon remembering the expensive ring Luke had just purchased and that the person in front of him
was Luke's friend, he guessed that Katherine was also wealthy.
The clerk reacted quickly and led Katherine to the side to show her the other rings.
Katherine was acting on a whim for planning to purchase aring.
When she married Zack, the ring was very simple design-wise.
Nobody knew who chose it.
She'd been wearing it as if it were a treasure for three years.
However, she discovered Zack's ring in the room's cabinet a few months before she divorced him.
She would not have presumed that the ring had been sealed and not used if the Colburns' home had
not been cleaned regularly.
She did not want to think about the past, so she brushed her thoughts away.
"Miss, look at this one.The design is elegant yet simple, and the flower pattern on it is very suitable for
a beautiful woman like you” the clerk genuinely offered.
He appreciated Katherine's beauty.
Katherine moved her gaze to the clerk's line of sight.
The diamond on the ring sparkled in the light of the display.
It was indeed beautiful.
She looked at the price, and it was indicated that it was more than 30,000 dollars.
Fortunately, she was rich, and she could afford it.
So, Katherine paid the bill with her credit card.
Then, she wore the ring and left.
She was planning on finding a restaurant nearby for lunch.
"Are you in such a rush to marry?"
A familiar male voice boomed.
When Katherine looked up, he saw Zack standing in front of her.
There was a cold expression on his face.
"What does this have to do with you?" she inquired with a faint frown on her face.
Zack's heart was stabbed.
He felt a little uncomfortable and couldn't get his breath out.
It was stuck in his throat, making him gulp with difficulty.
His struggle was evident by the faint movement of his Adam's apple.
"Don't you love me a lot?" he asked.
"That was in the past’' Katherine replied with a cold expression.
For a brief moment, Zack remained motionless.
His gaze was drawn to her hand.
There was a ring on her finger that was so dazzling that he didn't notice it was on her pinky.
Zack stared at the ring, and his temples throbbed in pain.
"So, this is only the extent of your love? You can face me after eight months of divorce and then marry
another man just like that?" he asked again in contempt
