< Chapter 11 Chapter 11 Juliette thought, âThe blue diamond in the center looks like five carats.
âAnd itâs surrounded by rare pink diamonds.
Menu âThis ring must have cost at least 1 million dollars. Mariela has some balls to try it on. She canât afford it at all. Isnât she embarrassed?â
In response to Julietteâs provocative words, Mariela simply nodded and continued to admire the ring on her finger nonchalantly.
She had to admit that Lennon had great taste. She was very satisfied with this ring.
âMs. Logan, your ring looks really beautiful,â Juliette said with a smile.
âYeah, I think so, too.â
Jaimeâs face turned extremely ugly.âMariela, take off the ring.â
âWhy?â Mariela looked at him, pretending to be puzzled.
âWhy are you trying it on? Are you trying to force me into marriage?â He couldnât hold back his anger anymore.âI will never marry you!â Juliette curled her lips into a subtle smile, secretly pleased.
âMs. Logan, Jay and I came today to try on our engagement rings at Perlaâs request.â
Julietteâs meaning was very clear.
She was implying that she was the daughterâinâlaw Perla wanted, and Mariela could forget about marrying into the Herman family. Mariela was amused as she looked at the duo.
She was trying on the engagement ring customâmade by her fiancé. Why were they making a fuss?
One arrogantly thought she was forcing him into marriage.
The other provoked her and flaunted that she had earned Perlaâs approval.
But the Herman family in Los Angeles was so insignificant in Deandreâs eyes.
âOh, I see.â Marielaâs tone was indifferent.
Juliette and Jaime were both stunned for a moment.
Why didnât she care at all?
Juliette scrutinized Marielaâs face, observing her expression, attempting to find a trace of jealousy and discontent on her face.
However, Marielaâs expression was impeccable.
Juliette became unsure at once.
Was Mariela pretending not to care or did she really not care?
Jaimeâs face had turned extremely sullen.
âMariela, are you enjoying yourself? You knew Juliette and I were coming here today to look at the rings, so you were waiting for me here, right?
âYou know what? Thereâs no future for us. Forcing me into marriage wonât work. âMarriage is about matching social status. With your background, how Jaime was aggressive.âLook at yourself. Youâre embarrassing me!â
He was really pissed off, as he went on for minutes.
Mariela, however, wasnât angry at all.
She smiled goodânaturedly and asked, âI embarrass you?
could you possibly get to marry me?â
âThe last time I recall, we havenât broken up, right? So, Ms. Murphy is the mistress here, and you are the scumbag who cheated on me. really embarrassing whom?â
