Chapter 251 Forever and Forever

Ethan was on the hot seat now. As a result, he had no choice but to use countless lies to cover upthe first one. “Well, after the Larson family went bankrupt, they sold tons of valuable antiques,paintings and rare calligraphy that had been collected for so many years. My grandmother liked tocollect all kinds of precious and beautiful jewelry when she was alive. She loved them so much. Mygrandfather didn't want to take them away from her. so he let her stay with them. After her deathyears later, my mother inherited her favorite jewelry. She held them so dear to her heart that shecouldn't sell them, even in her hardest time. She later passed them on to me. Those two rings werebetween them.” . Ethan decided not to go into details. Too many details would expose hints of hiswell-disguised lies. Nonetheless, he insisted on giving a reasonable explanation. His words weren'tentirely false. Some of the details were actually true.

the platinum emerald ring was just like he'd told Janet. It was his grandmother's.

like and

“Oh, I see. I was extremely shocked to hear the store clerk's words today. We are not financiallystable. It is practically impossible for you to buy such an expensive ring. I got up and left withoutsaying anything else to her. Something looked suspicious. At that moment, I felt that they were justwinding us up because they had secretly called the police. Thank God we didn't have any problemsback there.”: Janet held her chest and breathed a sigh of relief after she finished talking

She swallowed her husband's words, hook, line and sinker. That's because she knew the Larsonfamily used to be rich in the past. It seemed totally normal that Ethan had inherited such pricelessjewelry from his mother. “Well, keep the ring then.” Ethan smiled when he saw that she was calmand no longer tense. He looked at her intently and buried his face in her neck. After inhaling herscent, he affectionately asked, “Babe, do you want to come back to my room tonight?”

Janet's mind was still preoccupied with thoughts of her mother-in-law’s family. A lingering feartugged at her heart as she stared at the blue diamond ring. “Ethan, why didn’t you tell me this storysooner? I had no idea I was wearing such a valuable ring. Honestly, I thought it was just a cheap oneyou bought at a mere jewelry store. What if I had broken or lost? I would have been heartbroken,”Janet complained with a pout after pinching her arm. “Isn't it obvious why I didn't tell you? Janet,you are so modest. Be honest with me. Would you agree to use it if I told you how much it'sworth?”I

Ethan's pupils grew darker and darker. He swallowed hard as he looked at her beautiful face. Hismind was elsewhere. It had been a long time since he'd been intimate with her. A pleasant burningsensation was already reaching his groin. He really wanted to make love to her.

“Gee, that's not an excuse. Did you forget that I told you to buy a regular ring? Why did you have togive me such a valuable one without my knowledge?” Janet looked at him with wide eyes. However,her expression was still kind and gentle.

She tried to take the ring off her finger as she spoke. But Ethan held her hand. The light in the roomcaught the diamond, and then its blue light cast a shadow on the high bridge of her nose.

“I haven't forgotten what you said. It's just that this is your wedding ring, a symbol that indicatesthat you are my wife.

How could I have gotten a cheap one? Remember you promised at the altar to stay with me untildeath do us part.

You're my wife, so you can't take it off and give it back to me, even if you're not comfortable withthe price. You

are mine, always and forever,” Ethan uttered possessively. The expression on his face was as seriousas Janet had never seen it before. His words were so hot it felt like

as if they were being etched into your heart with ease. Janet found her words deathly charming. Shewas lost in her surroundings as she looked into his deep eyes. Her firm tone was making her fallmore in love with him. It was obvious that Janet was upset about what had happened between himand Charis, but she wasn't thinking about that right now. She was thinking about what he just said.Not knowing what to say, Janet ducked her head to avoid eye contact with him. An inexplicable heatwas in her heart. She felt like there was a red balloon that was increasing in size in her heart. Ethan'swords echoed in her head and she couldn't help but blush.
