Chapter 478:
“They were also purchased at the jewelry store,” Jenessa explained, setting the bags before Ryan with a hint of mystery in her voice.
Curious, Ryan opened the bags one by one as instructed.
Inside, he found gemstone cuffs, watches, and various other men’s accessories. He looked up, astounded.
“Are all these for me p>
Jenessa nodded, her smile reassuring.
“Who else would I buy them for? Other men?” she teased lightly.
Ryan’s expression became serious.
“Jenessa, you shouldn’t even joke about gifting things like this to other men p>
Laughing softly, Jenessa patted his shoulder.
“What are you worried about? I bought them with your card, so how could I give them to someone else? They’re all for you. Each gift was chosen with you in mind p>
Relieved, Ryan exhaled deeply. As he surveyed the items again, he realized none of them seemed tailored for young women. His brow furrowed.
“These are all for Grandma and me? Didn’t you pick out anything for yourself p>
After voicing his concern, Ryan felt a tightness in his chest. He worried that Jenessa might feel she couldn’t freely use his money to buy things for herself, indicating a distance still present in their relationship. This thought cast a shadow over his expression, and he awaited her reply with apprehension.
Jenessa momentarily struggled for words. She hadn’t intended to buy anything for herself during her shopping trip, having focused solely on choosing items for Ryan. Revealing this might lead him to believe she was more invested in their relationship than she was ready to admit.

“I just haven’t found anything I particularly liked yet. There will be other opportunities in the future, right? I’ll buy something when something catches my eye,” she explained smoothly.
Lifting her gaze, she caught Ryan staring at her intensely. Her heart fluttered, unsure of how her words had been interpreted.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” she asked, a hint of nervousness coloring her voice.
Ryan’s expression was serious, his voice low and rough.
“Could you repeat what you just said p>
“I just haven’t found anything I particularly liked yet,” Jenessa repeated after thinking for a moment.
“No,” Ryan stared intensely at her.
“The other sentence you said p>
Jenessa furrowed her brow, struggling to recall her previous statement.
Ryan’s voice trembled with excitement as he said, “Jenessa, you just said, ‘there will be other opportunities in the future p>
Jenessa’s confusion deepened.
“Is that a problem p>
She simply didn’t want Ryan to dwell on this any longer. To her, there was nothing wrong with what she had said.
Ryan smiled warmly, his deep eyes sparkling.
“When you mentioned the word ‘future,’ it made me wonder—are you saying you will be by my side forever and never leave again p>
