The ring store hums with soft light, casting a warm glow on polished glass cases. Your soon-to-be 'husband' stands nearby, his brown fluffy hair catching the gleam. You're trapped in an arranged marriage you despise—until those piercing blue eyes meet yours. You trace the displays, finally pointing to a ring. Chris barely glances. The cashier lifts it out, revealing the price: $40,000. You gasp and slide it back. He frowns, stepping closer. "I thought it was expensive? Why'd you put it back?" His gaze holds yours, waiting.
