After the Eight Years of Love I Gave Up novel Chapter 70

Chapter 19

I gently shook my head: "Cassius, please leave."

"Everly, I never touched Lyra. I broke up with her in less than three days."

"The wedding dress you bought, I've had it restored."

"And our matching rings, I've kept them safe."

"Everly, I even had a diamond ring custom-made. I'm serious..."

Cassius's eyes were getting redder, his voice trembling slightly.

He held out the exquisite diamond ring box, offering it to me like a precious gift.

The longing and hope in his eyes were incredibly cautious.

Looking at him like this, I couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.

But t h a t w a s all t h e e m o t i o n I felt.

"Cassius, I already have a boyfriend."

I held Darius's hand tightly, stepping out from behind him to stand by his side, shoulder to shoulder.

The color seemed to drain from Cassius's face in an instant.

His gaze slowly moved downward Finally, it stopped on the intertwined fingers of Darius and me.
