Watching him being so serious, Ruth felt both helpless and found him quite adorable.
“Did you just get caught up watching the show? Is the chicken soup ready? I’m still waiting to drink it.”
Liam held his anger inside and refused to take the opportunity she offered. Ruth had no choice but to change the subject.
“Are we going to Pondbourne in a couple of days? Didn’t you say you were going to take me home? How about we pack our bags together tonight?”
With that being mentioned, Liam finally spoke up.
“First, I went to Ecluoland, and then I flew to Pondbourne.”
“Ecluoland? What did you go there for?”
Liam finally raised his gaze and glanced at her, his eyes filled with a hint of indulgence and compromise that he couldn’t resist.
“Wasn’t that watch an heirloom from grandma? Of course, it should be repaired first. Otherwise, she would be so sad when you take me to see her.”
Ruth didn’t expect him to be so thoughtful and considerate, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.
But yesterday she checked the watch on her way here, and it seemed that it couldn’t be fixed. She didn’t want to make another wasted trip.
“No need, it just stopped spinning, as long as the object is still in my hands, it’s fine.”
Her tone was full of comfort, but the pain in Liam’s eyes grew stronger and stronger.
He put down the eggs, then took out the ring she had taken off while bathing from his pocket, and slowly put it on her ring finger, with a sincere and gentle tone.
“Go ahead, treat it as a vacation. As long as it’s something related to you, even if there’s only a one percent chance, I still want to give it a try.”
