Bab 214: Bella's Story

"Oh, this?" Ambrose touched the ruby pendant's smooth surface. "Do you like it?"

"Yes, it's very pretty." Bella smiled sweetly, admiring the vibrant color of the gem. "Is it for Emma? I am sure she will love it."

"Actually..." Ambrose turned the ruby pendant around, its smooth surface reflecting Bella's curious expression. "It is for you."

"F-for me?" Bella stumbled over her words, her eyes widening in surprise.

Her heart was suddenly filled with joy.

"Nn." Ambrose nodded, a small smile forming on his lips.

He was still embarrassed, as this was the first gift he had ever given to anyone.

"Turn around; I will put it on for you."

"O-oh, okay." Bella turned and felt her heart race with anticipation.

Ambrose stood up and carefully moved Bella's hair out of the way, revealing her milky white neck.
