Although Luca was perfect for this dress, Aisha had stated that this dress was one of her proudest works. It was only for rent, not for sale.
The makeup artists could not do anything about it either.
Luke took out his business card and handed it to the makeup artist. "I would appreciate it if you can talk to the designer. I want to buy this dress."
Luca looked so beautiful in the dress that he wanted to buy it and give it to her.
The makeup artist took his card and could tell that he really wanted it. She nodded and said, "I'll discuss it with Aisha."
"Okay." Luke's gaze fell on Luca once again.
The makeup artist felt that she was the biggest third wheel here. She cleared her throat and said, "Sir and Ma'am, if the two of you are satisfied with this look, I'll make a move."
Jason had told her to come to him after she was done with the styling, so the makeup artist did not ask Luke to settle the bill.
"Mm." Luke returned to his room.
The personnel packed up their things. After they left, Luca walked out of the room. Her dress touched the floor slightly, but it was not too much of a drag when she walked.
Luca glanced at the time and found that it was almost time to leave.
Just as Luca thought of reminding Luke, he came out of the room with a jewelry box in his hand.
"Mr. Crawford, should we make a move soon?" she asked.
"Wait." Luke walked up to her and handed the jewelry box to her. "Have a look."
"What's this?" Luca looked at the delicate jewelry box and knew that it must contain jewelry.
She looked at the price of the box and knew that the jewelry inside was expensive.
Luke noticed that she hesitated to open it, so he opened the jewelry box for her. It contained a set of platinum jewelry.
Platinum was not expensive, but what made it expensive was the sky blue gemstones inlaid on the jewelry.
The polished surface of the gemstone reflected a shimmering light under the illumination of the suite lights.
Luca could not help but blink in admiration.
Luke explained, "Ray helped me get this jewelry set at an auction. He's been keeping it for me."
When he found out this jewelry set was about to be auctioned, he got Ray to help him bid for it because he could not find the time to attend the auction.
Ray was a great friend and helped him get the jewelry. The jewelry was expensive, and he was worried that there would be problems with the transportation. Hence, the plan was for Ray to pass it to him whenever he was in A City.
Since he went to Russia before Ray had a chance to go to A City, Ray handed the jewelry to him directly.
"Mr. Crawford, this jewelry is too precious." Luca shook her head. She did not want to wear this jewelry.
Moreover, the makeup artist had already chosen some jewelry that would go well with her look. Although the jewelry was not expensive, it was fine.
He bought this set of jewelry for her and originally planned to give it to her when she confessed her true identity to him. He changed his mind when he saw her in this outfit.
The sky blue gems would match the lavender dress.
Seeing that she was unwilling, Luke put the jewelry box on the coffee table and walked behind her without her consent.
"Mr. Crawford?" Luca wanted to turn around and look at the man when she felt his hand on her neck.
"Don't move..."
The warmth of his fingers touched her delicate and sensitive skin. Luca's nerves were tense, and she did not dare to move.
Luke took the existing necklace off her neck.
Luca felt her neck lighten a little. She saw him walk to the coffee table and pick up the blue gemstone necklace. He locked her deep gaze on her as he said, "Put it on."
Luca knew that she could not turn him down. She sighed, turned around, and let Luke put it on her.
"Mr. Crawford, what if I damage such a precious necklace?" Luca murmured in a low voice. It was as if she was asking and sighing at the same time.
Luke noticed the helplessness in her tone. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly. He was fine if things that he gifted her were broken.
Even if she broke them, he could find better ones for her.
Moreover, Luca was not a careless person. He had given her so many gifts and she always kept them well. Everything was in the villa where they lived before.
Even when the fake Bianca was around, she never touched those things in the slightest.
Luca cherished him so much that she would never easily break the things he gave her.
"Are you going to break this?" Luke asked. Têxt © .
"No..." Luca lowered her gaze. She could never bring herself to break the things Luke gave her, but she could not reveal what her heart was thinking. "It's too valuable. I can't afford to break it."
Luke's expression remained unchanged when he heard her duplicitous words. "If it breaks, I'll find you a better one."
Luca's heart beat faster, and she lowered her gaze. ‘Is this meant to be a gift for me?'
Luke put the necklace on her. "Let me see."
Luca lowered her head and turned around to face him.
He looked at the necklace on her neck and was very satisfied. His taste was on point.
Luca's dress perfectly matched this blue gemstone necklace.
Her fair skin paired with the sky blue gems made her skin look more delicate and flawless...
Luke felt some heat in his body as he looked at her...
Luca looked up slightly and immediately looked away when their eyes met.
Luke picked up the ring in the jewelry box and looked at her. "Do you want to put it on yourself, or do you want me to do it?"
Luca glanced at the ring he had in his hand, then at the ring in her hand. She knew that it was useless to turn him down, so she took off the ring on her middle finger.
Luke took her hand and put the ring on her ring finger.
It was just the right size as though it was made for her...
Luca looked at the ring and thought of the wedding ring that Luke put on her when they got married. That wedding ring was designed by a designer. Luke was involved in the designing and manufacturing.
The wedding ring was in a class of itself...
Sadly, when she was kidnapped by Abel, they were worried that the wedding ring had a tracker on it, so they disposed of the ring.
Moreover, they did it in front of her.
She saw the ring full of Luke's love for her being disposed of with her own eyes. Her heart ached as if the soul of her body was extracted.
"What are you thinking about?" Luke asked in a soft voice when he noticed that she was staring at the ring in a daze.
He had asked Ray to find someone to adjust the ring prior, so the size was made to fit Luca's ring finger.
"Nothing." Luca came back to her senses and shook her head.
She glanced at the bracelet in the jewelry box and said, "Mr. Crawford, I don't want to wear the bracelet. It's too luxurious..."
Luke nodded in agreement seeing that she did not have any bracelet on in the first place. "Okay."
