Chapter 29

The onlookers immediately turned on Sandra as they watched the drama unfold.

“How do you screw up the ring size for a proposal?”

“No wonder the guy said no. I wouldn’t accept it, either! Who could, when she’s so careless?”

I took off the diamond ring and tossed it to Sandra. “This is in Lester’s size, right? It looks like he needs it more than I do. Give it to him.”

Sandra ran after me frantically. “Fred, wait! I’m sorry. I made a mistake! I can have a new one custom-made for you! Don’t go, please! I’ll do anything as long as you’ll forgive me!”

I stopped and looked at her coldly. “Is that so? Then do me a favor and stop clinging to me. Please disappear from my world!”

Sandra shook her head, tears welling in her eyes again. “Don’t be so cruel to me, please. That’s the one thing I can’t do…”

She stepped toward me while sobbing.

I’d had enough. I pulled out my phone, ready to call the cops. “These past few days, your relentless pestering has seriously affected my life. I’m calling the police if you still refuse to leave! Can’t we just end this peacefully, Sandra? Don’t make me hate you!”

Seeing that I was serious, Sandra’s eyes dimmed. She slowly let go of me, choking up as she said, “Don’t, Fred. I- I’ll go. Just don’t hate me…”

Tears streamed down her face as she ran off.
