Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 1917

Luna stated her demand with calmness and impassivity.

Her clear eyes were, at this moment, etched with remarkable determination and earnestness, so much so that both Jim and Charlotte could not help freezing when they saw the look on her face.

She looked so serious that it was as though she would refuse to step down from the CEO of Landry Group unless they agreed to her terms.

Jim and Charlotte exchange glances.

A split second later, he let out an exhale and stared coldly at Luna. "Well, if you insist, then I can't force you.

"I'll never give you the jade ring my mother left for me and the necklace I used to propose to Charlotte."

Jim had to admit that the position of CEO was indeed important to him, but some things were far more important than power.

The jade ring was the last thing his late mother Lucy had left for him.

Jim had never met his mother before, nor had he gotten to spend even a day with her. Wearing this jade ring made him feel like his mother was still there with him through his childhood and the most difficult times in his life.

As for the necklace around Charlotte's neck, the reason he had paid nine million dollars for it was to symbolize Charlotte's old name at the orphanage, Number-9.

This also was an embodiment of his loyalty to her.

The childhood promise he had made to her remained in his heart for many years. He had kept to his word, and Charlotte, as she had promised, had waited for him for so long, too...

Therefore, no matter what happened, Jim would never hand these two items to someone else.

Luna raised her brows and glanced impassively at him. "Are you sure you're giving up the position just like that, Mr. Landry?"
