Jake carefully placed the sapphire earrings back into the storage box with the other pieces of jewelry he had spent weeks collecting. Every item held a memory. One by one, he packed them away as if storing pieces of his past. Then, without wasting another second, he rushed out the door and headed straight to the jewelry company where Madison had once designed their custom rings.He asked to see Miss Lincoln, the senior designer. She was an elegant woman in her fifties, poised and thoughtful. When Jake explained that he wanted to design a new set of rings with her help, rings he intended to use to win back the woman he loved, she raised her eyebrows in surprise.“Didn’t Miss Spencer already design a pair?” she asked.Jake’s expression darkened. He paused, then said quietly, “I made a lot of mistakes. I lost her.

When Madison rushed Dylan to rinse the burns with cold water, she finally realized what had happened. Someone had slammed into him from behind, and scalding pear syrup had splashed all over his back.He had also been holding a steaming cup of ginger tea, which he said he brought for her because she had been coughing lately. But the impact knocked it out of his hands and spilled it all over him. His palms were red and swollen from the burn.Madison quickly called the front desk and asked them to pick up a set of men’s clothes. Then she rushed back into the office building to find some ice packs.Just as she stepped out, she ran into Jake.He looked shaken and awkward. “Madison, I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to bump into him.”Only then did she realize it was Jake who had hit Dylan.Her brows furrowed. “What are you doing here?”Jake hesitated. “I remembered you liked baked pears.
