Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart
Chapter 749 The Ring A Confession of Arthur's Love

Once Arthur selected the gift for his mom, Jean shot him a warning glance, implying he to go away. She was tired of what had happened. She was supposed to hide their intimate relationship from the deputy manager but everything was exposed, all because Arthur had come to the exhibition.

However, Arthur had the least idea to leave. He stared at her and said in a serious tone, "I also want to look at some rings."

Jean was utterly shocked at his words, and she thought to herself, "God, please don't make him say something like he is going to buy the ring for her. Just don't make the situation more complicated or she will go crazy!"

Unfortunately, there was no other customer except Arthur by now, so Jean couldn't get away from him.

"Well? What kind of ring that you want?" Jean asked through gritted teeth.

Arthur knew she was actually warning him, but he still continued nonetheless, "I fall in love with a woman, so I want to get myself a ring as a confession of my love and to keep other admirers away." While he was speaking, his deep dark eyes fixed on Jean and the love inside them nearly drowned her.

"I want to tell her that she is my destiny."

"I will wait for her no matter how long it will take."

"I have been and will be there for her forever and ever."

Even Jean's assistant, a bystander, was moved at Arthur's words. The assistant was nearly driven crazy by their love affairs - they loved each other deep in their hearts but they had to restrain themselves. Though Arthur didn't mention Jean's name everyone could tell he was confessing his passionate love to her. How much the assistant wanted to see them kiss and she thought, "Come on! Arthur, be a man. Kiss her! Look at the expressions in your eyes!"

Compared to the assistant's excitement, Jean was quite calm. She picked a display box in which there were several different types of rings for men. Showing them to Arthur, she said, "All these are fashionable and simple-designed. You can select from them."

Arthur didn't even give those rings a look but kept staring at Jean, saying, "Can you design one for me?" He knew she had designed rings for Nina and Cameron, which he also wanted.

Jean only gave him a close glance. "I am afraid you will have to wait until several months later. I've got many orders already."

"It's okay. I can wait," Arthur said without a second thought.

"Well then, I will contact you when I have time," Jean said coolly and put the display box back.

While Arthur felt a bit discouraged by her attitude, the deputy manager, who witnessed what happened, said to him, "Mr. Hudgens? What do you think about this one?"

Arthur looked at the ring at which the deputy manager was pointed while the deputy manager continued, "In fact, all the jewelry on display was designed by Miss Jean. But the reason why I recommend this one is because the design concept of it was 'true love forever. I think the concept is what you were trying to say. So, would you like to try on it?" The deputy manager took out the ring and gave it to Arthur. "Oh, by the way, I think Miss Jean has kept a ring for herself, which makes couple rings with the one you are trying."

Jean could do nothing but thought helplessly, "Great, deputy manager, now you're telling all my jewelry collections to Arthur. Which side are you on?"

Once Arthur knew Jean had another couple ring, he put the ring on his finger, whose size matched his ring finger perfectly, as if by special design. He was also satisfied with the design context - "true love forever", just like his love for Jean, which will last till the end of the world.

Ignoring the cold expression on Jean's face, Arthur said to her, "I will buy this one. But I would also like you to design one for me when you have time."

Jean sneered at him for acquiescence. What could she say? He was the customer after all.

Finally, Arthur was content with the purchase and was about to take his leave, when the deputy manager said smilingly, "Mr. Hudgens, you invited us to dine yesterday, so I think it will be our turn to invite you. I am afraid we don't have time tonight, so how about the day after tomorrow. We can have dinner together."

Jean wasn't quite interested in this idea but she couldn't blame the deputy manager for inviting Arthur. In fact, it would be impolite if they didn't invite Arthur back.

The deputy manager knew Jean didn't want to be in contact with Arthur but he thought he should help them by giving them to chance to stay together.

Arthur could not be more welcome to have dinner with Jean, so he answered with a smile, "Okay, see you the day after tomorrow." While Arthur left contently, Jean gave the deputy manager the cold shoulder. There were no more episodes between Jean and Arthur the next few days since they were all busy with their own works. The exhibition was soon over while Arthur would stay abroad to study longer, so Jean would leave before him.

The night before going home, Jean was packing up her things when she received the call from Arthur. "Jeannie, can we meet? I have something to say to you in person." Jean had gotten used to the nickname Jeannie. How terrible. She couldn't believe she even got used to this nickname which she at first considered a creep.

As for what Arthur said about meeting her. She would not trust him again. He had promised he was just going to meet her every night she back from work, but she would always end up in his room. Jean refused, "If you have something to say, just say it on the phone. I need to pack up the luggage."

Arthur insisted, "It's something important. I want to talk to you in person."

"Well, then, we can meet in the café downstairs." Jean knew it was just Arthur's excuse to have her in his room.

Arthur said pleadingly, trying to be innocent, "Jeannie..."

"Jeannie, we will be separated from each other for a long time." Arthur couldn't imagine what it would be like by then and he couldn't help but think Jean was treating him cruelly. She knew he would miss her like mad but she wouldn't give him the chance to meet her, even if she was leaving.

Jean said casually, "Well, I don't think it's quite a big deal."

Arthur fell into a short silence before he said, "Okay, bye." Then he hung up the phone.

Jean began to worry that if she made Arthur mad but then she thought it would be fine for Arthur wouldn't be bothering her anymore.

She then began to pack up her clothes, but only after a while, there was someone knocking on the door. Jean was quite shocked and thought, "Is it Arthur? No way?" Though they had been hanging out lately, Arthur had never come to her room before. They would only meet each other after work for a walk or to his room.

Jean dropped the things and went to open the door. It was indeed Arthur. Before Jean could say anything, Arthur forced himself into the room.
