StarNovelChapter 1083:
Regaining her composure, she let out a measured breath and lowered her eyes to the necklace resting against
his collarbone—a thick, golden ChrHearts chain that looked oddly out of place on him.
She couldn't help wondering—did Aliza give it to him?
Back when they were together, Kristopher wouldn't so much as touch something that didn’t match his taste, let
alone wear it.
He remained bent for a moment, waiting. When she still hadn't moved, he tilted his head up, confused. “What's
wrong? You can’t get it off either?”
His sudden movement startled her, and as he lifted his head, his nose brushed lightly across her lips.
She blinked, stunned, then hurriedly reached out to wipe his face. “Sorry—sorry, that was an accident.”
“It’s fine,” he said, catching her wrist mid-reach and brushing his own nose. He glanced at the back of his hand,
checking—no lipstick smudges.
Carrie cleared her throat and said awkwardly, “Just... lower your head again. I'll get it off now.”
Wordlessly, Kristopher dipped his head, obedient as a retriever. This time, she didn’t let herself hesitate. Her
fingers worked quickly at the clasp. “There. Done.”

Kristopher straightened, watching her stare down blankly at the necklace in her palm.
He raised an eyebrow. “You like it?”
Feigning casual curiosity, she tilted her head. “Just wondering. This isn’t your usual style.”

The question seemed to catch him off guard.
Truthfully, he hadn't even looked at the necklace when he left his company that morning. Knowing he might be
getting an MRI, he'd simply asked his assistant to toss him something metallic.
He hadn't paid attention—until now.
Following her gaze, he finally took a proper look at it.
Though elegant for a ChrHearts piece, the garish gold did feel... off-brand.
He scratched the back of his head sheepishly. “Just... trying something new.”
Then, almost too quickly, he snatched it back—as if the longer she held it, the more likely her questions would
start cutting deeper.
To Carrie, the gesture said more than words ever could. The necklace had to be a gift from Aliza. And whatever it
meant to him, he clearly didn’t want her touching it.
