Chapter 33
"What do you fancy eating?" Romeo opened the car door and waited for her to get in.
Rosemary remained silent.
"French cuisine, perhaps? Or you want to eat some other type of food?"
"Whatever." Rosemary strutted into the car, no longer fussing over this matter.
Romeo got in the car, saw her reaching to take off that necklace, and instinctively grabbed her hand.
Rosemary was a bit stunned, then explained, "I feel like I shouldn’t have this."
"No one’s more deserving of it than you." Romeo looked into her eyes, speaking word by word, "I know you’re young and haven’t thought about marriage yet, but that’s okay, no rush."
Rosemary just felt this precious item around her neck was too conspicuous. Everyone who knew what this necklace represented understood what it meant!
This was something only the McMillian family’s daughter–in–law could wear!
Seeing that she still wanted to take it off, Romeo pressed on, "Could you consider my grandpa’s delicate heart and keep it on for now? He’d be heartbroken if he saw you without it when he gets discharged in a few days."
Rosemary was convinced by this argument. Her hand had just left the necklace when he took it.
