When Love Turns to Ashes Chapter 10

When Love Turns to Ashes Chapter 10

I quit my job, so I didn’t have to spend extra time every day learning computer knowledge that I

didn’t like.

I studied jewelry design in college and now I have picked up my drawings and brushes again, so

can work in the design industry that I love.

In the afternoon, I was painting in the greenhouse at home when Julian suddenly paid a visit.

He brought me a pearl diamond crown, and I immediately recognized it as an antique crown from the last century because I had seen it in a book before.

I really like the design of the elements on the lover’s knot on the crown, and the pearls on the crown are crystal clear and full, with sizes gradually changing in arrangement, cleverly combined with

diamonds, like tears of lovers on the crown.

He gave me this pearl diamond crown, I said no pain, no gain, but he said it was a gift he had long ago reserved for his fiancée, now it’s just returning to its rightful owner.

The confusion in my mind finally found an outlet, and I said that when I turned eighteen, I set my eyes on this diamond crown. I don’t know who bid an exorbitant price and took away this crown in

advance.

It used to be Julian.

But at that time, how was he so certain that I would like this gift?

Julian then told me that when he was sixteen, on Pemberley Isles, he suddenly fainted by the shore and almost got swept away by the waves, and it was me who saved him with a lifebuoy.

When he opened his eyes, he immediately remembered me, thinking that I was like a divine being

descending to earth. What’s even more coincidental is that Julian’s mother was my professor for

my college major courses.

No wonder Julian knew my preferences so well.

“So, you decided to marry into our family just because of this life-saving grace, but I didn’t think that much when I saved you…”

And I didn’t even recognize him at first sight, I’m truly ashamed.

After hearing my words, Julian shook his head, “Perhaps you believe in love at first sight?”

I couldn’t help but smile, the whole love-at-first-sight thing, it felt more like a plot from a fairy

tale book.

Julian also laughed, “I didn’t believe it either, but every time I saw you, my heart wouldn’t lie.”

He looked at me affectionately, his eyes so gentle as if they were going to drown me, and my heart started to beat uncontrollably.

Julian said he had waited for me for ten years. Originally, when he saw that I had a boyfriend, he also thought about backing off. But after he found out that Landon had a crush on someone buried deep in his heart for many years, and knew that Landon couldn’t give me the happiness I wanted, he decided to try to pursue me.

He took out a diamond ring and knelt down on one knee. The perfectly fitting ring was right at my fingertips. “I hope to have a chance to love you openly and honestly.”

“You didn’t believe me now, it’s okay, the rest of our lives is long, I will slowly prove it with /

actions.”

My dad and my mom also appeared out of nowhere, each holding a bunch of roses in their hands, and happily saying, “Say yes to him, say yes to him!”

Remembering the scene I saw on my birthday at the couple’s restaurant, the protagonist who is

now surrounded by flowers and cheers has become myself.

This time, I also wanted to be willful and have a love affair like a home invasion.

I slipped my fingertips into the ring, tears shimmering in Julian’s eyes, slowly pushing the diamond ring inch by inch, trapping me.

My mother walked over and placed the pearl diamond crown on my head. My father shed tears and, while wiping them away, didn’t forget to take out his phone to take photos and videos.
