Back in Time: Unshackling From Love

Chapter 174

So, Jerome didn’t just give Mikayla the pair of earrings that was meant for Kylie.

It seemed like he bought two pairs, and gave them separately to both of them.

This thought made Mikayla nauseous.

“Ms. White, your earrings are stunning,” she drawled suggestively.

“Really?” Kylie’s fingers grazed past her earrings.

A smile played on her lips as she murmured, “Someone gave me this. I didn’t expect him to remember that my favorite flower is orchids.”

“Orchids look particularly graceful. They’re a perfect match for you, Ms. White.” Mikayla took a quick turn after flattering Kylie. “What a coincidence, though. I have a similar pair, and I’ve looked into the price. It’s around 200 thousand dollars.”

“I didn’t know that!” Kylie seemed surprised. “Jerome–I mean, Mrs. Miller, do you like

orchids as well?”

“It doesn’t matter whether I like orchids or not. It seems like Jerome gave this to you?”

Mikayla asked curtly.

Kylie’s smile was unwavering as she remained silent.

“If he gave this to you, then please return it now.” Mikayla gave no heed to Kylie’s.

dumbstruck expression.

She smiled as she continued, “We’re a married couple. The amount he spent on the pair of earrings belongs to our joint assets. That means he spent 200 thousand dollars on a gift for you without my consent. Thus, you’re required to return it. Otherwise, transfer me half of

the amount–100 thousand dollars.”

Kylie was flabbergasted.

She knew Jerome absolutely wouldn’t tell Mikayla that she bought the earrings.

She was certain that Mikayla would be reminded of the same pair of earrings once she hinted that her earrings were from Jerome as well.

Once Mikayla plunged into sorrow, she would resort to humiliate Kylie, or she might even quarrel with Jerome in a fit of rage.

A fight was bound to happen nonetheless.

Little did she expect, Mikayla kept her composure.

She even offered to let Kylie compensate her with 100 thousand dollars.
