Requiem of a Broken Heart

Chapter 832:

“What is it? I’ll go get it right away,” Alban eagerly offered.

The designer looked toward the staircase, where a man was slowly descending. She smiled and said,

“Oh, I don’t think you’ll need to.”

“Rachel,” Allan called out as he drew closer.

“Allan, you’re here!” Rachel’s face broke into a radiant smile as she turned to him.

At that moment, all the troubles and worries that plagued her seemed to just melt away.

Allan’s gaze swept lightly over her.

“You look beautiful,” he said without reservation.

“The dress suits you perfectly.”

Rachel’s eyes landed on Allan.

He was dressed in an elegant white suit, looking quite sharp.

Side by side, they looked like they belonged together.

“Thank you, Allan. You look fantastic, too,” Rachel complimented in return.

Allan reached into his pocket and pulled out a gift box. The moment he opened it, a dazzling set of jewelry was revealed.

The designer smiled approvingly.

“Mr. Vance, your timing couldn’t be better. This was the one missing piece for your bride. The pearl jewelry set you chose today matches her dress flawlessly. Shall I help her put them on?”

“I’ll do it,” Allan said in his usual soft, steady tone.

Stepping behind Rachel, Allan picked up the necklace, his fingers moving carefully as he adjusted it around her neck before fastening the clasp.

Then came the bracelet.

“Rachel, your hand,” he said softly.

She lifted her left hand.

When Allan chose this set, he had pictured exactly this moment—how stunning it would look against her skin.

“It might be a little cold,” he warned gently.

“I figured,” she replied with a small nod.

As the bracelet settled on her wrist, Rachel felt a subtle flutter in her chest.

She had always preferred pearls over gold, diamonds, or any other gemstones.

What she hadn’t expected was for her first pearl set to come from Allan.

“This must have cost a fortune!” Rachel hesitated, feeling a bit self-conscious about how much he had spent.

“They’re family heirlooms, not as pricey as you think. Just wear them and don’t worry about it.”
