Chapter 264 - Fancy Ring
Ian entered the Rossie mansion and the first thing he did was to visit Violet in her room. He knocked first and opened it. His heart broke seeing Violet clutching herself and crying.
"Violet," he quickly approached her. "What's wrong?" He asked. She covered herself with the blanket and she sniffled.
"It's just… my breasts hurt so much."
Ian sighed and caressed her hair.
"I'm sorry."
"What are you sorry about?" She wiped her snots and tears.. "It never hurts like this so much. Maybe because my son needed me… I~~"
"Vi, I swear. We will get him back. I will have to find out how to destroy those destructive nanomites inside his body."
"Disable." She looked up at him. "We need to disabled it right from their system. It will be risky but it's one way. We can't remove those destructive nanomites." She winched and clutched her chest. He noticed that it was wet probably because of her milk.
"Why won't you pump it and I can deliver it to your son."
She looked up at him with those broken tears.
"You will?"
Ian nodded his head.
"I will do that. Also, I have news for you." He grinned.
"Good one?" She wiped her tears.
"Yeah." He wiped her wet cheeks. "Last night, I came to my girl's house and Franko Charles was there. I want to marry Tracey before someone else does."
"Oh," She was quite disappointed. "You are marrying her because you don't want someone to marry her."
"I want to marry her." He sighed. "That's why I have to ask you about the engagement ring. Although I gave her one… it's very cheap. I made it from her stationery."
"Oh," She giggled. "That's sweet of you. I think you should buy at least five rings and let her choose." She shrugged.
"Fine, that's a good idea anyway." He pursed his lips.
"And about this Franko Charles?" She asked.
"He's still a threat. But I have to take care of him, that's why I came here to ask for Viper's help."
"Okay." She nodded her head. "I can help but I need a little time. If you promised that you will deliver milk to my son…"
"Sure." He grinned. "For now, I will shop for rings!" He stood and patted her head. "We will get him soon." He bent down and kissed her forehead. Ian left her room and that's when he met Karmina in the corridor with food for Violet.
"I think she needs help with uh~~" He pointed to his chest.
"I know. Congratulations."
"Thanks, big sis." He kissed Karmina and he left happily.
The first thing he did was go to the shop where Karmina recommended him. Seeing the emblem of K and R mixed beautifully with a crown on it.
"Mr. Del Carlo," The manager came and bowed. He somehow felt like royalty. "This way please." He was wearing a casual outfit and a cap and they escorted her. He was led to the VIP room and was served drinks and food. There's an option on the drinks and he relaxes and calls. He left the house and she was still asleep. He smiled and pressed the video call as he put his headphones on.
"Babe, where are you?" She pouted at him.
"Hey, I am outside and will buy you millions of rings."
She giggled and wiped her eyes from laughing.
"Babe, you don't have to buy me a lot of it." She pouted at him. "But really?" She grinned. "You better buy our wedding ring."
"I will. Gold or silver?"
"Gold, of course."
"Alright." He grinned at her. "I'll be home, maybe a little late."
The manager entered with the sales ladies with a brochure and boxes.
"I'll call you later. Okay?"
"I will. I love you."
"I love you too." He hung up and the manager handed the brochure for wedding rings. He smiled and slid his phone back into his pocket. "Alright, let's see the designs. My future wife was stylish and she loves fashion so much."
He went through the brochures and the rings were beautiful. He knew that the stones were real and the company had mines in a few countries. They also bought real gems to make beautiful rings.
"Give me one." He said as the manager signed the first lady holding a small tray with a red velvet box on it. "This is from our winter collection. This is the only design around the world."
The woman approached him and bent down a little. He didn't glance at her chest but he focused on the box as he took it and opened it. He gaped at the beautiful blue diamond with small diamonds surrounding it. It's not only because of the diamonds but the design was shaped like snowflakes. The silver ring around it was thin to emphasize it. He was immediately in love.
"What does pink mean?"
"It means first love in winter." The manager said. "The designer was KR, it was said that she designed it during winter in Paris."
He smiled.
"And yet, she let me have it?" He mumbled. "I will take it. I want at least ten rings."
They were shocked.
"I already spoke to the owner of the shop and she agreed that I could buy as many as I want even though it was limited."
"Yes, of course." The manager bowed his head.
They showed him another and all of it was designed by Karmina herself when she was younger. He saw a familiar design that he admired back when he was a teenage boy and she said that she would give it to him.
"This one," The manager said. "Madam wanted you to have this for free. Said that it was a gift."
He smiled charmingly.
"Of course, she did. This is the exact design that I saw her draw years ago." He mumbled. He loved Karmina and he was pampered by her like he was a biological brother. He now realized that Karmina missed her deceased siblings and she used to have a little brother.
They gave her a free tablet where he could tract them from the boxes if ever they got stolen. There's also a code on each of it just in case if he lost it or someone stole it. They could track it anywhere.
"Amazing."
He bought ten engagement rings. Then, they presented him with a wedding ring that was also a gift from them. It has real diamonds around the golden ring. They gave her a briefcase with a code on it that has all of the boxes that he bought for his darling. He was excited and so, he drove his Rolls Royce to a fancy resort that he reserved.
He watched as they set up the room, the food, and everything. He smiled at the progress and checked the time.
"Make sure that everything will be settled before six." He said. He drove his Rolls Royce back to the mansion and then his little fiancee was at the staircase of the entrance of the mansion, probably waiting for him. She stood quickly and smiled widely. It just made his day completely. He came out of the car and locked it. She rushed to him, jumped on him, wrapped her legs around his waist and they kissed passionately. "Why won't you get ready, babe? We are going somewhere."
"Really?" She looked beautiful and happy. "I haven't told Keira about us…" She pointed.
"You don't have to." He patted her head and kissed her lips again.
They went upstairs and he glanced at the car. He kept it locked and he told them not to move his car. He followed Tracey back upstairs and she rummaged through her clothes and he pointed at her bikinis. She smiled widely and she grabbed a few things fast. He only packed a few of his clothes and he sat down and relaxed while waiting for Viper's report. He also sends messages to Keira, Johanna, and Alessandro about the party in the said resort.
"I'm ready." She said after fixing her hair. "I set up my makeup when you told me that you are coming."
"You are beautiful even without make-up."
"But I need sunscreen, at least."
He took her bag and lifted it.
"It's quite heavy, darling."
She giggled. They left the mansion shortly and she eyed the briefcase.
"What's that?" She asked.
"Just some stuff that I need." He said as he drove with one hand and reached her head.
His phone chimed multiple times and it's the emoji of a snake. She glanced at it.
"It's work." He explained and placed his hand over her lap.
"You won't work tonight, right?" She asked and held his hand. "And you have a fancy car, babe."
"It's not mine. I just borrowed it from Mina."
She kissed his hand and smiled beautifully. The time that they reached the resort. The staff opened the car door for them. She came out first and then he took his briefcase while the staff took other bags.
"Keira!" Tracey exclaimed and rushed to Keira who seemed to have just arrived.
"What's with the fancy private resort?" Keira asked. "I think it's not time for us to have our early weekend." Keira grinned.
"I have an announcement and you, my little niece, have to listen clearly." He said and waved off at the staff.
"Now, he's acting rich," Keira grumbled as Stacey laughed.
