Brian grunted, anger simmering inside him.“What about them?” He retorted after a while, taking a deep breath while he paid attention. The old man cleared his throat, then he adjusted with so much effort. “First of all, Brian. I need you to forgive them. I know it hurts, but they are still family.”Brian arched his brow, then his eyes moved away for a second. “You saw everything…” He wasn’t asking, but the old man felt the need to nod. “I see and hear everything that happens in this place, Brian.” Lord Ambrose remarked, his voice low but audible. “Your father was the only child I had…” He broke his silence, so much emotion glittering in his eyes. Then he sighed heavily, attempting to get a grip on himself. “My wife and I prayed for another child, but it didn’t seem like that prayer was going to be answered….”“So we gave up. We decided that it was best to stop hoping for another child.” His voice became heavier than before, tears slowly soaking his eyes. “But Rebecc

“Welcome to Glitters Jewelry store. How may I help you?” The Saleslady spoke with a welcoming voice, her warm smile already urging Brian to walk into the store. “Please, come in, Sir. We have everything you may need here in Glitters Jewelry. We are the best in Lakeville.” The Saleslady assured, holding onto her smile. She watched Brian step forward while she held onto her smile. “He is so cute.” She thought to herself, struggling to take her eyes off him.Brian looked around, and he could see other customers being attended to by the other workers in the store.With his hands in his pockets, he returned his gaze to the lady, then he took a deep breath. “I need wedding rings. The best you have here.”“Oh…” The coy smile on the lady’s face disappeared, but she still tried not to be cold. “You came to the right place, Sir.” She insisted, then she pointed to a corner across a shelf.“Over there… We have the best set of wedding rings that just arrived a few days ago, Sir. You

“Lucas?” Samara gasped softly, turning to look at the man who had mentioned her name.“Oh my God, it’s you!” She ran and embraced him, wrapping her arms around him tightly.The man held onto her, a firm grip on her waist. “When did you get back, Lucas?! What are you doing here?!” Samara’s excitement grew even when she pulled out from the hug, then she began to caress the man’s cheeks with both hands. “I came back a couple of days ago.” The man responded with a smile.But the next second, Samara’s beam vanished. “Oh, I am sorry, sweetheart. I couldn’t tell anyone I was back. You know how my job is.” He apologized, but it appeared he needed more than that to pacify the angry lady.“Alright…” He cleared his throat, holding onto his smile. “I will make it up to you, Samara. You can pick anything you want and I will pay.”“Anything?!” Samara’s eyes flashed with excitement, her lips parted.“Yes. Anything…” The man affirmed with a nod, and the next second, Samara pecked him.

“Yes. Is there a problem with that?” Brian asked calmly, but Lucas could only move his lips without making any sound. “Don’t say I didn’t warn you, Brian. There is no need to embarrass yourself. Leave before she returns with those diamond rings. We will make up an excuse for you.” Brian scoffed, shaking his head with a wry smile.“But I never asked you to make an excuse for me. I can pay for the rings.” Samara scoffed, turning to Lucas as though she was trying to urge him to comment on Brian’s remark. “With which money?” She asked, staring at Brian with contempt in her eyes. “Did Arya give you money to purchase the rings? Because I know that’s the only way you can be able to pay for them.”“No, she didn’t…” Brian insisted, taking a deep breath. “I was hoping to surprise her with them. She doesn’t even know that I would be at a jewelry store today. But we have a dinner date tonight. I will show her the rings there.” Samara’s expression fell, but her resentment was palpa

Craig inhaled some air, then he turned to look at Brian again to be certain his eyes weren’t deceiving him. “You sound like you know him, Lucas.”“Yes, I do…” Lucas nodded, then he sighed softly. “Well, not really… she does.” He pointed to Samara, giving her the opportunity she had been waiting for.“Yes, Mr. Reed! This man is married to my best friend! His name is Brian Regal! Don’t be deceived by his appearance, there is no way he can be able to buy all these diamonds.” Craig remained silent, turning slowly to look at Brian. Once again, he observed him and even took a step forward. “Do I know you?” He asked, staring at Brian’s face.“You look familiar, Sir. I think I have seen you before.”“You definitely have seen the face of this loser before, Mr. Reed. He is the man that everyone was talking about online. The same one who sold his company and gave the money to his wife! She left him a while ago, and that’s why the story resurfaced all over social media.”Craig scof
