"Go back to South Africa?" Calvin was surprised and asked in confusion, "How did you come up with such an idea?"
"I can't say that... I'm afraid that Simon will try even blow up the civil affairs bureau to stop us from getting married, can I?" Emily thought to herself.
She licked her lips and said, "No, It only that it's my second marriage after all. It seems that it's not good for me to invite so many people. Besides, we both want a simple wedding. It's easier to go back to Country S to do it!"
Calvin believed in what she said, smiled, and said, "Don't overthink it. Leave the wedding to me. I won't let you worry about it!"
"Okay," Emily had no choice but to nod.
When they returned to the city, the sky was getting dark, and the neon lights lit up one by one.
Seeing Calvin inadvertently glancing at her right hand, Emily felt very guilty.
After Simon threw the ring into the toilet that day, she called Calvin to tell him that she lost the ring. But naturally, she couldn't tell him the truth but lie that she lost it. Touching the middle finger of her right hand, she said again with regret and guilt, "Calvin, I'm so sorry. You just gave me a diamond ring, but I lost it..."
"It doesn't matter!" Calvin smiled and comforted her, "If it's lost, I will buy a new one. After the wedding plan, we can go to the shopping mall to pick a new one!"
Emily nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Then I'll pay for it this time!"
She didn't overthink it. She only felt that since she lost the diamond ring, she should make up for it.
Calvin sighed in a low voice, "We are about to get married. There is no need to split the bills!"
As they arrived at the apartment building, the BMW slowed down and stopped.
After stepping on the brake, Calvin turned to Emily and made a gesture of making a phone call, "It's getting late, Emily, go back and rest early. I will call you tomorrow!"
"Okay, drive safe!" Emily nodded.
Pushing the car door open, she waved at Calvin and then watched the BMW turn around and drive away.
Emily turned around and wanted to enter the building, but suddenly, a headlight of a car shot over.
Emily raised her hand to cover her eyes and looked over with a frown.
The black Cayenne was parked among the cars on the parking line next to the flower bed. At this time, the door of the driver's seat opened. Simon got off with a burning cigarette in his hand.
Emily suddenly felt anxious.
In response to his appearance, she subconsciously got defensive and alerted.
The black Cayenne was parked in the middle of the row of cars, which was imperceptible. It seemed that Simon had been waiting there for a long time. When he came over, Emily could see several cigarette butts on the side of the car.
Simon took a puff of smoke and said, "You're back."
In the darkness, the outline of his handsome face seemed particularly deep.
Emily took half a step back and asked cautiously, "Simon, what kind of evil thing are you up to?"
Simon looked at her nervous and alert face and said, "Don't be afraid. I'm just here to return something!" "Returning something in the middle of the night?" Emily did not believe him. With a face full of doubts, she asked, "What is it?"
Simon reached into his trouser pocket, took out a shining diamond ring between his fingers, and handed it to her, "Your diamond ring!"

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
