Zachary's eyes flashed with a hint of sadness. "Tessa, I've been so lost these days. Not a second goes by where I don't think about you."
Tessa scoffed. "What does that have to do with me?"
Zachary smiled, pulled out a diamond ring from his pocket, and presented it to her. "Didn't you once say that you liked this ring? I bought it for you."
Tessa recognized the ring. It was the one she had seen in a magazine once. At the time, she was amazed by the ring's unique design and simply wanted to share her thoughts with Zachary.
But the minute he saw it, his face immediately darkened. She could clearly remember what he had told her back then.
"I can buy you anything, but not a ring. I currently have no intentions of getting married."
She had felt a little dejected by his response at the time. He had always assumed that she was desperate to get married to him.
At the thought of this, Tessa's lips curved into a taunting smirk. "Sorry, I don't like it anymore." She lifted her hand, revealing the big diamond ring on her finger. "I only like the one my fiancé gave me."
A flicker of hurt flashed in Zachary's eyes. He already knew who Tessa's fiancé was.
He was Stephen Jacobson, the most affluent person in Rivertown, president of Jacobson Corporation, and the only heir of the Jacobson family. Compared to them, the Gomez family was hardly worth mentioning.
However, Zachary still smiled. "Tessa, both of you aren't engaged yet, so he's not your fiancé."
Tessa frowned and stared at him with a disdainful gaze.
Zachary's lips curved into a smirk. "Tessa, forget about getting engaged, even married people get divorced. Getting engaged is no big deal."
