Chapter 4
He took a few steps forward, about to speak, but then he noticed me sitting nearby. His steps faltered for a brief moment before he walked straight to Bianca’s side.
“This is for you.”
“Really? Let me see!” Bianca excitedly opened the exquisite gift box, revealing a stunning diamond necklace.
“I knew you’d like it. I specially bid for it at an auction just for you.” Nathan’s eyes lingered on Bianca’s face, filled with tenderness and adoration.
Unfortunately, he forgot that today was our third anniversary. Technically, we hadn’t even broken up yet.
Bianca’s face lit up with joy. “It’s so stunning! Put it on for me!”
Nathan smiled and carefully clasped the necklace around her neck. They stood so close together, looking like a perfect match.
“I love it! You’ve given me so many diamonds, but this one is the most beautiful!”
A tight, suffocating feeling gripped my heart, especially when I caught the wary look in Nathan’s eyes.
Feigning innocence, I asked, “Nathan, do you give Bianca gifts often?”
Bianca nodded without hesitation. “Of course! He sends me something every month—so many diamonds, I can barely keep track. He knows I love them.”
How ironic.
