Maria looked at the roses expressionlessly, wondering whether she should either throw them away into the trash can or burn them instead.

"Oh, what do we have here? Did a student of yours fall for you already?"

Anthony also got to the door in his wheelchair, and asked in a teasing tone.

“Do you know who he is?"

His voice seemed to be pretty calm and playful, and he wasn't really angry at this incident.

Maria shook her head. "No, I don't..."

This was unexpected and out of her control. Of course, she couldn't prevent anyone from sending her such things, especially if they knew where she was staying. Although Anthony didn't seem to be disappointed, she wondered if he was just hiding his anger.

But looking at Anthony, she could say that he really was fine with it.

He just shrugged a bit, and then seemed to think of something else. After a moment, he took out a flat but exquisite small gift box from the pocket of his shirt, which was only half the size of his palm.

"Well, it's my fault. I should have given this to you much earlier to have avoided this kind of incidents." Anthony smiled and handed the small box over to her.

Maria furrowed her brows in confusion.

What was Anthony talking about just now? And what was in the box?

With a Little reluctance, she took the box and opened it, only to find a diamond ring in it.

Yes, an exquisite and elegant diamond ring.

A dove egg sized pink diamond was embedded on top of a smooth and round ring.

Of course, the size of the diamond showed how valuable it was.

Maria was even more confused. She couldn't think of any reason why he needed to give her this.

Anthony said indifferently, “Well, we are just engaged, so you can't wear it on your ring finger. Just put it on your middle finger." However, this wasn't the problem.

Maria was dumfounded and rendered speechless because she thought that a diamond ring was very unnecessary.

After all, they were just pretending to be engaged. Even if this was a prop, it was extremely ostentatious.
