Bella blinked at the sudden change in Misha’s tone and posture as she was confused until he mentioned the ring. She looked to her left hand and idly rubbed her ring finger where her engagement ring had sat since Ash had given it to her.
“I took it off,” Bella said looking up at Misha wondering if he saw it as a sign that the engagement was broken or not, “I was only wearing it to please my father and since he isn’t here I don’t wear it. The engagement is still on.” And Bella knew a rumour that her and Ash had slept together would be going around soon enough. She didn’t like it but it would be worth it if it got her father off of her back.
