Maya shot lasers at the diamond ring in Marcello's palm before picking it up. She could feel the burn piercing through her heart as she slipped the ring onto her left ring finger. She felt as though she had somewhat betrayed Dalton by wearing another man's ring, and she couldn't help but feel a deep sense of guilt.
"The ring looks good on your finger," Marcello complimented.
Maya glares at him, pulling her hand back. She turns her back to him. "We are done talking. Get out of the room."
"Alright, I will leave you to get ready for our engagement party, fiancée."
Maya grimaced and stormed off to the bathroom, missing the chance to see Marcello leave.
She reluctantly took her shower, but she didn't miss the opportunity to relieve her distress by crying under the spray of the faucet. She definitely felt better after the tears were gone.
She got out of the shower to find the beautiful dress she would be wearing to the fake engagement party.
