Chapter 190
Bride Behind The Mask
Marguerite shook her head clearing Frederick out of her mind, refusing to dwell on him anymore.
Hog Hry had not yet healed, causing her to wince in pain with each step she took. Therefore, Miley supported her, strolling slowly as if they were taking lesundy walk âSilly gut in the only one in the world who would accompany you shopping with a lame leg âIndeed, my dear Marguerite the best friend one could ever ask for. How about we buy some friendship bracelets downstairs, as a symbol of our unwavering bond?
âBut if weâre tallag about unwavering bonds, we should be buying rings.â
Miley chuckled in delight, âMake Mr. Winston buy you a ring!â
Aring symbolized a lifetime commitment. How could Frederick possibly buy her one?
It was impossible now, and it would be even more so in the future.
Meanwhile, Yuna and Frederick arrived at the jewelry store.
She had bought quite a few things today, carrying bags of shopping spolls, her mood was especially cheerful.
Perhaps thinking of the last time Frederick spent a big sum of money on that wretched Marguerite, she felt a surge of jealousy. Therefore, upon arriving at Grandeur Square Mall, she retaliated by making Frederick pay for her shopping spree At the moment, the counter was filled with all sorts of dazzling jewelry, which made Yunaâs eyes sparkle.
Each plece was worth a fortune, with the cheapest one costing over twenty thousand Seeing this, Yunaâs vanity flared up. She tumed to Frederick and asked, âFreddie, I lost my necklace.
Can I buy another one?â
Frederick didnât say yes, but neither did he say no. He simply turned to the clerk and ordered in a cold voice, âGet a sapphire necklace with diamonds around it.â
The clerk hesitated, Tm sorry, sir. We donât have that style of necklace in our store.â
Yuna pouted and tugged at Frederickâs arm, âFreddie, I donât want a sapphire necklace. Iâve been wearing that style for over ten years and Iâm bored of it. I want something new!â
The clerk, observing the coupleâs interaction, made a calculated guess about their relationship Seeing the woman carrying bags of shopping goods, it was clear that the man had been spending on her Why not, then, suggest the storeâs new amvals and make a handsome commission?
So, the clerk put on a professional smile and turned to the couple.
âSir, our store is most famous for its rings. Take this one for example, an eightâcarat full diamond ring.
It was worn by a famous actress at her wedding last month Itâs one of only two pieces in the worldâ
As soon as the ring was brought out, its dazzling light immediately caught Yunaâs attention.
âItâs beautiful! Can I try it on?â
âOf course!â
Yuna eagerly stretched out her hand, and the clerk carefully slid the ring onto her finger.
To be honest, the diamond was too big and looked rather odd on her hand.
But Yuna loved it. What she wanted was extravagance, the kind that screamed she was a woman of high society.
âFreddie, I love this!â
Frederick stood tall and handsome, but his icy face hardened.
âSir, your girlfriend seems to like it very much. Why not buy it for her? A man can only customize one of our diamond rings in his lifetime in our store, symbolizing his love for one personâ
Fredenckâs face darkened.
If it was just an ordinary piece of jewelry, even if it cost a fortune, he could swipe his card without blinking an eye After all, money was not scarce for him, it was just paper But a ring, especially one that could only be customized once in a lifetime, he had to think twice.
redenck didnât say anything, but suddenly, a sarcastic female voice came from the other side, âOh, I was wondering why the air was so bad, turns out thereâs a fly Juzzing aroundâ
veryone turned to look, and to their surprise, they once again ran into Marguerite and her best friend in the jewelry store rederick looked at Marguerite, who also had a complicated expression on her face. His eyes were deep and unfathomable âuns, however, immediately snuggled into Frederickâs arm, holding her hand up high, showcasing the eightâcarat diamond ring on her ring finger What a coincidence? Come, take a look. Isnât the diamond ring Freddie bought for me beautiful?â
