Seeing that Chloe was not saying anything, Noah took her left hand and kissed the back of her palm while maintaining eye contact.
He touched the ring as he spoke, "There is no expiration date on this, Chloe. No matter if you label yourself as my girlfriend, fiancée, or my wife, this ring signifies that we are a couple and that we are serious about making it work. If you want to break up with me, you can return the ring. How does that sound?"
Chloe couldn't find a fault in his words, despite her instincts telling her that she was falling into a trap.
Should she add 'scheming' into the list of attributes for describing Noah?
But even if it's a trap, if it includes Chloe spending time with Noah, she will fall into it willingly because she fell for Noah a long time ago.
"OK."
Noah's face broke into a grin. He won this round successfully.
Soon, his little rabbit will stop resisting, and run toward him.
