The onlookers felt really sorry that such a good ring was thrown away and couldn't understand why Cheyenne did it.
Kelvin's handsome and resolute face instantly became shrouded in a cloud of sadness. His eyes turned red.
A glimmer of disbelief still lingered in his eyes. His tall figure, kneeling on the ground with one knee, trembled. His pitiful and disheveled appearance prompted the female bystanders to exclaim in sympathy, "He's so pitiful."
As the saying goes, dreams can be beautiful, but reality can be cruel. How could Cheyenne, in Kelvin's hopeful moment, push him into despair with such heartlessness? The pain in his eyes was reflected in Cheyenne's eyes.
Conflicted and torn, she found herself in a state of anguish and indecision. "Kelvin, please leave. Let's put our past behind us," she said. Then she glanced at Master Iker, her tone slightly softened. "Master Iker, I understand your intentions, but I cannot accept the money. I'm sorry."
"Miss Lawrence..." Iker tried to persist, but Cheyenne promptly locked the door, leaving all three prominent figures stranded outside.
Kelvin, like a madman, jumped into the fountain, desperately searching for the lost ring, as if searching for a needle in a haystack. "Where is it? Where did it go... My ring! Cheyenne, you're so heartless!"
"How could it end like this?" They had spent a month on the deserted island together. She had saved him, and there was definitely something between them.
"Mr. Foley," Chris hesitated to judge Cheyenne's recent actions, but he genuinely sympathized with Kelvin. When had he ever seen Kelvin so fragile? He quickly took off his suit jacket and jumped into the fountain, joining Kelvin in the search. Chaos ensued with the sound of splashing water.
Meanwhile, on the internet, the discussion was equally heated. Some sympathized with Kelvin, while others were delighted for Master Iker. This unexpected outcome meant that Master Iker still had a chance.
Gordon patted Iker's shoulder sympathetically, offering words of comfort, "Keep up the good work. Don't give up."
"Yeah," they exchanged glances and finally decided to leave first. That one billion was too conspicuous, too dangerous to leave on the roadside. They needed to find a way to deal with it first.
On the 48th floor of East Mall, a glance revealed a dazzling array of jewelry stores. In one of the jewelry stores, a young and wealthy handsome man suddenly appeared, attracting the attention of many shop assistants.
Teagan donned a brown pinstripe suit with a turned-up collar, paired with a crisp white shirt. A delicate sapphire cufflink adorned his sleeve, refracting a cool blue radiance under the lights, exuding an air of nobility and luxury.
By his side walked a slender and tall young lady, wearing a red dress that accentuated her curves. Her feet were adorned with a pair of black high-heeled shoes with thin heels. She intimately linked her arm with Teagan's, her face beaming with a radiant smile akin to blossoming flowers. Her fiery red lips parted, emitting a coquettish voice.
"Mr. Parry, I really like this one. Can you buy it for me?" she cooed.
Upon closer inspection, she was none other than Jenna, the receptionist from Kelvin's company. She took the initiative to call Teagan and arrange a meeting. It had been a while since Teagan had indulged himself outside while being with Nora. Since this woman threw herself into his arms, he saw no reason to refuse it.
