Chapter 194
“Mr. Wood...”
“Have a good rest.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Shawn was nowhere to be seen.
Gale had never had a moment when she wanted to return to the company so much.
The jewelry department needed her, and Lovito also needed her. She was a valuable working woman, not like Susan!
Meetings, discussing plans... Busyness gave Gale no time to think about those messy things.
By the time she finished, it was already night.
Her stomach growled with hunger.
Summer came over with a lunch box. “Hey, I knew you were starving my godson again.”
“Summer, it‘s good to have you.” Gale took it and ate happily.
“Shawn didn‘t bully you, did he? If so, you have to tell me.”
“No, it‘s quite calm.”
Summer looked at her. “You must not be embarrassed to speak, given our friendship.”
“I know, I know.”
However, Gale did not dare to tell Summer.
Best friends are thinking about each other.
Summer wanted to help her, and she also wanted Summer to stay out of trouble.
“Yo, you are all here.” Joe returned to the jewelry department and saw the two of them with a mysterious look on his face. “Come to my office, and I‘ll show you something. I just got it.”
Summer asked, “What is it?”
“You‘ll know when you see it.” Joe opened his briefcase in the office and took out a red velvet brocade box.
He opened it, and he said, “Open your eyes and take a good look, don‘t blink. You will be blinded in a while...” The layers were wrapped, and the moment when he finally opened it, Joe said happily, “How is it? Is it bright enough?”
Summer and Gale were speechless.
Isn‘t this Susan‘s wedding ring? Gale coughed and said, “I drew the design, and I thought it was something else.”
Summer pouted, “The ring is made. To be honest, it‘s a bit tacky and jeweled, but it is gorgeous and shiny, has a strong sense of wealth, and is very luxurious at a glance.”
The ring is made inlaid with diamonds in the center, surrounded by a circle of rare red gemstones, and even the ring setting is made of white gold.

Not luxurious enough to stand up to close scrutiny by learned crowds, but sparkling enough to fool the lower and middle class.

That was what Susan wanted.
Joe replied, “It was shipped from abroad. I happened to be at the airport, so I went to pick it up. I have to give it to Shawn when I go back. This is the wedding ring he gave to... whoever.”
He knew that Summer hated Susan so much, so he did not even mention her name.
Summer cut him off. “If I get married in the future, I won‘t want a ring of this style. It‘s vulgar!”
Gale smiled, picked up the ring, and looked at it carefully.
The ring is very large, and it is quite eye–catching when worn on the hand. The diamond in the middle was brilliant, with a full ten carats.
