Chapter 1238 Is Stanley Abused
“Could you gift me a Darry Ring? I've heard that such a ring can only be bought once in a lifetime, to be given to the woman one loves the most. Would you consider giving me a ring like that?” Kate asked, her face full of anticipation as she looked at Alex.
Even though Kate married Alex for the benefit of her family, she was still a woman that yearned for romance in her marriage. Who wouldn't want their husband to love them?
“The wedding is about to start. It would be troublesome to order a custom one now. Besides, I've already prepared the wedding ring. A pink diamond worth five million won't be inferior to a Darry Ring,” Alex rejected her outright.
If he wanted to buy it then, there was still time. However, deep down, Alex knew he could never truly love the woman in front of him. He would only be deceiving himself by giving her such a diamond ring.
Kate felt a bit disheartened. A fleeting glint of resentment toward Alex flashed across her eyes but disappeared as quickly as it came.
“Alright, it seems it might be too late to do it now. I'm sorry for making a fuss about it.” Kate gave herself an out. Not wanting to stay there and embarrass herself further, she turned around to leave and change into her wedding dress.
The wedding wasn't heavily attended, with only those familiar with Alex showing up. Most of them were business associates who came specifically to curry favor with him.
Within a year, two weddings were held. The many women who admired Alex inevitably felt heartbroken a second time. However, there was nothing they could do, as Alex was just too outstanding. Even though he was married, they simply couldn't let him go.
Heather had also arrived at the wedding venue. After all, Kate had sent her an invitation. If she didn't show up, it would mean she still hadn't moved on, something she didn't want to admit in front of Kate.
Who else can Mrs. Walker be talking about, if not Kate? I know Kate is someone cunning, but she has been quite good to Stanley. Could it be that she has done something to Stanley behind my back? If that really is the case, Stanley would surely have told me. I had even asked Stanley about it before. Could it be that there's something I don't know about?
