Chapter 475
After Rose fell asleep, Edward was busy in the newly booked presidential suite.
The room was decorated meticulously everywhere. The ceiling was decorated in the shape of balloons based on online photos. These balloons were a combination of burgundy and gold, forming a heart shape.
There was also a string under each balloon, with a rectangular card hanging at the bottom, and Edward’s handwriting that read, “Rose, I love you.”
The contents of each card were the same.
The living room, master bedroom, and study were all decorated with the word “happiness”, reflecting the joyous occasion. Even the dining table was adorned with a red silk cloth symbolizing love and happiness.
Every corner was decorated with what Edward deemed to be the most festive decorations. The television cabinet’s background wall, the sofa’s background wall, and even the carpet in the room had been changed to red. The curtains were filled with red line lights as well.
Edward looked around and made sure that he didn’t miss anything before he went to decorate the master bedroom.
He continued to decorate the background of the bed and placed a big “happiness” character in the middle, with concave balloons around it. Finally, he pasted the words “love” and replaced the bedding with a festive set of red bedding, meticulously smoothing out each fold.
In the end, many red and golden balloons were placed in the room.
He raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his forehead and placed his hands on his hips. He looked at the wedding room he had decorated again. He was quite satisfied, but he felt it might not fully meet Rose’s expectations. Time was limited, so he could only make up for it next time.
After setting up the wedding room, he did not sit down to rest. Instead, he left the room and went downstairs. He took a taxi to a mall and went to the jewelry shop. He stood at the front of the display table, and after looking at it for a long time, he did not find a diamond ring that satisfied him.
The attendant walked over and asked, “Sir, what kind of ring do you want to buy? Something luxurious or minimalist?”
Edward asked, “Do you have any custom-made ones in stock? I’m looking for a pair of matching rings.” Customized rings were typically unique, and their quality was usually quite high.
The attendant felt that she had met a big client and said enthusiastically, “Yes, I’ll get it right away.”
After a while, the attendant returned with two pairs of rings in her hands. She placed them on the display table and let Edward choose. She began to introduce them. “This Vine Entanglement style is low-key. The diamonds are relatively small, and every one of them is embedded in the vines.”
“On the other hand, this crown has a princess style. It’s relatively high-profile. It depends on what style you and your wife like, Sir.”
Edward picked up the two diamond rings and looked at them. He remembered that during the dinner at the Blackwell family, Auntie Ava, who was related to Trevon, was wearing a crown-style ring on her finger. Although the style was different, it was still of the same series.
“Wrap up the vine-style one for me,” he requested.
For salespeople, such clients were their favorites. They were straightforward and had only a few questions. “Yes, Sir. I’ll wrap it up for you immediately.”
After buying the diamond ring, Edward went to the supermarket downstairs. They were going to stay in the hotel for a few. days, so he had to prepare some snacks for Rose. Sherri said that Rose liked to eat snacks and canned food, and Grace usually added snacks on time in the Roberts family.
In that case, Edward naturally could not let Miss Roberts’s quality of life decrease. He went to the supermarket to buy three large bags of groceries, including fruits, drinks, and snacks. His hands were even red from carrying them all.
It was already afternoon when Edward took a taxi back to the hotel. He placed original room to see if Rose was awake.

He gently pushed the door open. The person on the bed was still sleeping soundly and did not know that someone had entered. The blanket that had covered her was gone. Edward walked closer and saw that the blanket had been kicked off the bed pitifully. He bent down to pick up the blanket to cover Rose again.
He began to organize the things in this room, preparing to pack everything into two suitcases and move them to the new
room.
When Edward had just left, Rose slowly woke up. In a daze, she narrowed her eyes and looked for Edward. She muttered to herself, “Did he go to meet with a client? Why isn’t he back yet?”
After saying that, she fell back into bed, but at the next second, she woke up, exclaiming, “Wait, where did the luggage go?

Did a thief enter?”
Rose stood up without hesitation. She stood on the bed and looked around for the shadows of the two suitcases. Unfortunately, she did not see them. She got out of bed barefooted and looked at every corner of the room, but she still could not find them.
She was in a mess. After sleeping, she had lost her luggage. Fortunately, the thief who came in was a robber, not a rapist. Otherwise, she would not be safe and sound.
The security in this hotel was too bad.
Edward was still not back yet and she was wondering what to do. Rose put her hands on her hips and thought if she should call the police. She eventually decided to call the front desk and see if they could recover the surveillance footage.
She used the landline to call the front desk and said that she had lost her suitcase, asking the front desk to handle it.
After a while, the front desk staff came over and said, “I’m sorry, Miss. Could you tell me the details?”
Rose was very angry. This hotel looked quite high-end. Why was it so unreliable? After all, all her belongings were in those suitcases. Her tone wasn’t very friendly as she said, “I only slept for a while, and then the suitcases in my room were gone. My husband’s suitcases were also gone. Help me check the surveillance cameras. I’m really angry about this.”
The staff was very polite. “I’m sorry, Miss. Our hotel is secure, and it’s difficult for thieves to enter. Every place has a high-definition camera installed. Perhaps you could check with your husband to see if he took them?”
