"How many people have their eyes on this target? Move fast, Nicky."
Louissa blinked in mild confusion, her gaze dropping to the gift box resting on her lap. Her brows furrowed delicately. Strange. Why is the box so large?
Wasn't this supposed to be nothing more than a jade bracelet? Then why on earth did it need a gift box of this size? Was there something else inside? Something more?
A wry smile curved on Louissa's lips as she brushed the thought aside. It doesn't matter. I don't care if there's something else in there. Why should I worry?
If there was anyone who knew how to stage these things perfectly, it was Amari. That girl had a way of surprising everyone, always hitting the exact moment that would stir emotions. She was skilled in it—perhaps too skilled.
But still…
The moment Louissa's eyes caught sight of what Amari had actually prepared, her expression shifted ever so slightly. The tiny twitch at the corner of her mouth betrayed her disbelief.
