"Look at her, all dressed up like she's someone special, but with such a wicked heart."
Greta was too ashamed to lift her head. Finally, she tearfully removed her ring. "I'll pawn this for you, okay?"
The diamond ring was quite valuable, and only then did the driver back down. The crowd began to scatter.
Miranda helped Greta, though it was hard to tell who was holding up whom, as they stumbled towards the hospital. By sheer coincidence, they ran into Cameron at the entrance.
He was holding Nina's hand as they were just coming out. Clearly, Nina's allergy had been quickly soothed after a shot.
Greta and Cameron locked eyes, hers filled with a deep sadness. Cameron's gaze instinctively dropped to Greta's bare finger. "You gave your ring away?"
Greta raised her empty hand, her voice laced with bitterness. "I once cherished it. Thought it was sacred, wouldn’t even let it touch dirty water."
Cameron's face turned even grimmer. Greta used to love him fiercely, depended on him. But now, it seemed she had moved on. Even their wedding ring, she could give it away just like that.
