Chapter: 3530
Melissa's face grew hotter. She pushed him away quietly and said, “Didn't you mention getting food? I'll go change and remove my makeup."

Upon entering the dressing room in the master bedroom, Melissa noticed a change in its layout.

She had organized this space before.

Originally, it looked different. There used to be two large closets, but now they were corner cabinets, possibly to accommodate more items.

It was evident that the master and mistress sections were separate, with the latter being slightly larger.

Melissa's heart raced as she gently opened the cabinet.

The cabinet was filled with women's clothing. There were dresses and gowns for both special occasions and everyday wear. Several large drawers held accessories, among which was a watch that caught her eye.

It was a Patek Philippe women's watch.

This and the watch Marcus used to wear was a set for couples.

Melissa recalled that this particular one wasn't available on the market anymore, but he had purchased one and kept it here.

Melissa's emotions were mixed as she gazed down at the ring on her finger. Although it was a gesture from him, she couldn't muster the same surprise and excitement as before. It wasn't about love; perhaps it was because she had been through so much.

Deciding not to try on the watch, she carefully placed it back.

Marcus stood by the door, watching her.

Removing his tie and rolling up his shirt sleeves, he exposed his strong forearms, adding to his mature and charming demeanor.

After a moment of silence, he walked over to pick up the watch.

“You don't like it?" he inquired.

“It's too expensive. I can't wear it to work," she responded.

Marcus tapped her head and smiled. “There will always be occasions.

When we get married, my mother will probably take you to all sorts of gatherings. And don't worry; I'll take care of Matthew at home."

"Do I have to attend those parties?" Melissa asked, a smile playing on her Lips.
