Chapter 45
Charmine had to stop as Amelia interjected her. “Did
you forget to brush your teeth?” Charmine glared at
her. ” Why are your words so foul? Do you know that
a good dog doesn’t block the way?”
Dog? Did she call Amelia a dog?
Amelia was seething in anger. ” Charmine! You’re
now only a homeless rat on the street with everyone
criticizing you. What makes you think you can act all
pompous? If I were you, I would’ve found myself a
hole to drill into! And you’re out shopping? How can
you be so shameless?”
“Shameless?” Unfazed, Charmine lifted her chin
slightly as her eye contact did not break. “What is
shameless? Taking a photo with a cucumber in hand?
Or is it trying to lock someone in their house but was
forced to pay three hundred fifty thousand in
return?”
Charmine’s eyes drifted from Tiffany to Amelia as she
spoke, and onlookers instantly changed the way they
looked at both Amelia and Tiffany.
Of course. Tiffany’s nude was revealed.
On the other hand, Amelia locked Charmine inside
her own house, but in return, she was threatened to
pay up 350,000 bucks. How outrageous!
Amelia felt the mocking glances aimed at her. Fuming
with anger, she yelled through her gritted teeth,
“Charmine Jordan! You’re a b*tch full of nonsense!
You ’11 get it from me today!” She lifted her hand up,
ready to hit Charmine.
Tiffany’s face turned red with anger, too.
She had to stay indoors for the past few days to let the
rumors pass. Now that she could come out to shift the
focus from her nude to show off how lovely her
relationship with Julian was, Charmine just had to
bring it up her nude again!
Tiffany held so much grudge against Charmine that
she wanted nothing more than to tear off her mouth.
Alas, since Julian was here, her eyes wavered as she
walked forward to Amelia. “Calm down, Amelia. Have
you forgotten why we’re here? She’s a younger sister;
we have to b e more understanding.”
Amelia instantly recalled the reason why they were
there in the first place. With a lightened expression,
she held her chin high as she goaded, “Right, today is
a great day! I can’t be bothered to waste my time on a
third-wheeler like you!
“Do you know what we’re doing here today? Do you
know what shop is this? Ohly! It’s Ohly! It signifies
‘the one and only’! This is a place for engagement
rings, and only one identity card can purchase one
ring, signifying one true love! Who’d want to sell it to
a third-wheeler like you? Also, what’re you doing in
Ohly? Here to pollute the air?”
“Oh, ha-ha,” Charmine laughed mockingly. She lost all
interest to even entertain her.
Tiffany had assumed Charmine would be sad that the
sight of them together would hurt Charmine, which
would be as satisfying as slapping her. She never
expected Charmine to have such an unbothered
attitude.
Frustrated as she might be, she wore a pitiful
expression and looked at Charmine sympathetically.
“Charmine sister, I know it’s all my fault. Please don’t
blame Julian darling, but the love between us is real.
Today, Julian darling brought me here to buy the Ohly
ring, so please just let us be. You and Julian darling
are in the past, and now that you’re Diamond
Prince’s…third wheel, you and Julian darling aren’t
together anymore. Please let us be, why don’t you?”
Tiffany said with a pleading tone, soft and helpless.
The crowd eventually had the same idea; that
Charmine came here t o avoid them from buying a
ring. How could a third-wheeler like her be
unashamed to destroy a happy couple?
Julian walked forward and hugged Tiffany. “Tiffany,
why are you begging her? This is Ohly, surrounded by
lots of guards. If she does anything to you, we’ll send
her to the police station. Come, let’s continue picking
our rings. We can’t let a shameless woman like her
ruin our schedule.”
“Exactly, Tiffany. You have to pick the most beautiful
diamond ring to show her what true love is. That’s
how shameless being a third-wheeler is!” Amelia said
proudly as she vainly lifted her chin.
Meanwhile, a black vehicle stopped and pulled over
at the entrance abruptly. The sales manager then
exclaimed, “The latest limited-edition diamond rings
are here! I heard that this batch has a three-carat
pigeon blood ruby with diamonds all around it!”
“What? A pigeon blood ruby? Really? This is Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
unbelievable! I heard that out of hundreds and
thousands of white diamonds, it’s very unlikely to get
one colorful diamond, let alone the pigeon blood
ruby!” Amelia said excitedly.
Tiffany’s eyes glimmered as she spoke, ” Red rubies
are usually siding toward reddish-purple or dark
purple. A pigeon blood ruby is the rarest of the rarest
in the world!”
“If you desire it, Tiffany, we’ll get it for you,” Julian
said with an endearing voice, not forgetting to glance
at Charmine to make sure she heard it.
Amelia mockingly glared at Charmine. ” Did you hear
that? Brother-in-law is buying the pigeon blood ruby
for Tiffany! A red ruby from Ohly! The one and only
red ruby ring of that kind in the world!”
