There, on his ring finger, was a simple and plain ring.
It was the one that she had bought yesterday.

Left with no other choice, Vivian fished her ring out from her bag and slipped it onto her finger. She murmured lowly, “Sorry, I picked this design at random.”
Finnick’s lips curled upward. “It’s fine. It looks very nice.”
Not sure what to say to that, the woman soon sat down and focused on eating her breakfast.

“There’s no need for that,” Vivian answered swiftly. “I can hail a taxi or take the subway.”
Heck no! If anyone at the magazine company recognizes you, the women are going to tear me to pieces!

It was true. On her way here yesterday, Vivian had noticed that this was a neighborhood for the filthy rich. All the residents here had their own cars. Naturally, there would not be any taxis or subway stations around.
