Charlie offered a subtle smile to Nanako but chose not to borate further.


    After a pleasant conversation with Tanaka Hiroshi, Nanako apologized, saying, “Tanaka-san, Charlie is heading back to Aurous Hill tonight, and I need to join him for some shopping. I’ll take my leave now and catch up with youter!”


    Tanaka Hiroshi replied quickly, “Miss, please don’t worry about me. You and Mr. Wade should focus on your ns. No need to make a special trip to see me; it would be too much trouble!”


    Nanako Ito smiled warmly, “It’s no trouble at all! We’ve known each other for so many years, so there’s no need to be so formal.”


    Hiroshi Tanaka nodded appreciatively before turning to Charlie with a serious expression, “Mr. Wade, I won’t be able to see you off tonight when you return home. Wishing you a safe journey!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Charlie returned the sentiment with a slight smile, “Thank you, Tanaka. I hope we can meet again.”


    “Absolutely, Mr. Wade! Until next time!”


    After leaving Tanaka’s hospital room, Nanako Ito apanied Charlie to Ginza in Tokyo. It had been a few days since they arrived in Japan, and this was the first time they ventured out for shopping. Previously, during hisst trip to Eastcliff, Charlie had purchased a set of Hermes luggage for his wife, ire, so this time he decided to skip the luxury items.


    As they wandered through the jewelry section, Charlie spotted a stunning heart-shaped diamond ring from Tiffany’s. The main diamond weighed three carats and boasted exceptional purity. Though not overlyrge, its exquisite design and beautiful heart-shaped cut immediately captured his attention.


    Reflecting on the time since his marriage, Charlie realized he had never given ire a proper wedding ring. He decided to buy this diamond ring as a special gift for her.


    After consulting with the clerk, he learned that the price of the ring was around 800,000, which he found reasonable.


    Charlie resolved to purchase the ring.


    Nanako Ito, unable to hide her envy, inquired, “Charlie, this ring is for your wife, isn’t it?”


    “Yes,” Charlie confirmed with a nod. “She’s been by my side for so many years, and I’ve never given her a ring.”


    Nanako sighed, “You’re so thoughtful towards your wife…”


    Charlie smiled, prepared to respond modestly, but was interrupted by the salesperson who politely asked, “Sir, do you know the size of your wife’s ring finger?”


    This question caught Charlie off guard.


    “I’m not sure about the size…” he admitted.


    The salesman exined, “If you don’t know the size, it couldplicate things when choosing a ring. I suggest you call your wife to find out her size, and we can help you adjust the ring to fit her perfectly.”


    Charlie hesitated, contemting that calling ire would ruin the surprise he intended.


    Just then, Nanako Ito suggested softly, “Um… Charlie, why notpare my hand to your wife’s?”<fn9907> ?????? ???? FιndNovel</fn9907>


    With that, she extended her hands, spreading her fingers in front of him.


    Charlie examined her hand closely and remarked in surprise, “Nanako, your hand seems simr to my wife’s! Would you mind trying it on for me?”


    Nanako nodded eagerly.


    The salesperson then handed the ring to Charlie, saying, “Sir, please allow thisdy to help you try it on!”


    Without overthinking, Charlie took the ring in one hand while gently guiding Nanako Ito’s right wrist with the other, carefully slipping the ring onto her finger.


    In that moment, Nanako felt as if she were in a dream,pletely enchanted.


    Although she understood she was merely helping Charlie find the right ring for his wife, the experience of him cing a diamond ring on her finger left her exhrated.


    She thought to herself, “If this is a dream, I wish I could stay in it forever…”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
