After sending the three of them off, Grace opened the box. She had thought that it might be a small thing, but when she saw the ring inlaid with jade, she was still surprised.
This was not an ordinary ring. She had seen it at an auction before. It was even more expensive than her house.
Well...
Grace suddenly became a little soft-hearted and quickly put the ring back in the box. To thank her for helping Evelyn and the child, the man gave her such a "big gift" the first time they met. Even she was a little shocked.
What kind of identity and family property did he have to be so rich?
She couldn't help but be shocked. Bert was comparable to Huston.
...
Evelyn thanked Grace and left with the child. The three of them got into the car. It was getting late, and Lucas was dozing off.
Bert reached out to turn on the headlights. Under the dim light, he saw the woman sitting next to him. There were two more dark circles under her eyes. She didn't look well because of lack of sleep, and her face was full of fatigue and sadness. Without asking, he knew that she hadn't had a good time these days.
Noticing the man's burning gaze, she looked up uneasily and asked, "What's wrong?"
The man lowered his head and said casually, "I suddenly regret letting you come back."
He deliberately lowered his voice for fear of disturbing the child. His slightly hoarse voice showed that he had been travel-worn and tired all the way here. Evelyn was suddenly speechless and didn't know what to say.
"How long?"
"What?"
Bert looked into her blank eyes. She had not planned for a specific time. He did not want to push her too hard, but he had to admit that she had changed a little these days.
There was a trace of nostalgia and uncertainty in her clean and beautiful almond-shaped eyes, which was the last thing he wanted to see.
Therefore, Bert decided not to wait any longer. He helped her make up her mind and said, "There will be a high-end banquet in the business world tomorrow night. Huston will be there. I'm also invited to attend it. Come with me as my female companion."
After that, he seemed to realize something and asked her seriously, "Are you willing?"
