He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 952

He stood up immediately, walking to the foot of the stairs to offer her his hand. His eyes rippled with tenderness and awe. "Sweetheart, you... you look absolutely stunning."

Scarlett glanced down at her outfit, a shy smile touching her lips. "Really? Is it too much?"

"I hardly ever wear this much jewelry," she added, suddenly self-conscious. "Does it look overdone?"

Julian tapped her nose affectionately. "Overdone? Not at all. It's perfect. In fact, you should have worn that entire ruby set I gave you, just to show Yardley exactly how happy you are now."

Part of the reason Scarlett had dressed up so carefully was precisely that. She hadn't expected Julian to say it out loud, let alone with such shameless honesty. She couldn't help but laugh. "That was the idea, but the rubies felt a bit too flashy. This felt more appropriate for daytime."

Julian's smile deepened. He took her hand and pressed a gentle kiss to her knuckles. "As long as you like it. I've stocked your closets and jewelry cases so you can wear whatever makes you happy. But no matter what you wear, you'll always be the most beautiful woman in the world to me."

He always knew exactly what to say to make her feel cherished. Her heart fluttered, and she beamed. "Really? Even when I get old?"

"To me, you'll always be gorgeous," he promised smoothly. "Even when we're old and gray, you'll still be the most beautiful woman in the room. Come on, let's head over to Flynn Group."
