Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 719

"Which jewelry division?"

Mira's eyes lit up, though she wasn't entirely surprised. At this point, it was perfectly normal for Owen to own half the city's premium assets.

"Serendipity Jewels is mine, but as of today, it will be rebranded as Everlasting Bond Jewels."

"Oh? Let me guess, you rebranded it just for me?"

Even if he hadn't, she was fully prepared to claim the compliment.

But this time, Owen didn't dodge.

"To be precise, it was rebranded for my future wife."

Mira shot him a playful glare, entirely unfazed by his smooth talk.

They stopped by the flagship store and picked up two breathtaking sets of jewelry Owen had pre-arranged.

After dinner back at home, Mira sat at her vanity, trying on the pieces.

She rarely wore accessories on campus, preferring a fresh, natural look.

Her clothes were always expensive but distinctly understated and low-key.

Tomorrow, however, required full glam and an impeccable presentation.

If she didn't dress the part, she'd look entirely out of place.

Satisfied with the look, she carefully placed the sparkling diamonds back into their velvet boxes.

Just then, her phone buzzed.

Expecting a text from Owen, she glanced at the screen while closing a box, only to see Sebastian's name.

Was he calling to guilt-trip her into attending the engagement?

Mira knew Sebastian didn't genuinely care about her well-being. Any affection he showed was deeply tied to family politics.

In his eyes, his niece's happiness would never outweigh the Quinn family's overarching interests.

In these wealthy circles, marriages were mergers. Character didn't matter. As long as the alliance was profitable and the families needed to join forces, the couple would never divorce.

As for romance? If they got along, great. If not, they took lovers on the side, and no one batted an eye.

They could play the field endlessly, as long as they smiled for the cameras and acted like a family at home.
