Nathan glared at Briar with resentment as he signed, “I haven’t even started confessing, and you’ve already

turned me down!”

Briar reached into an inner pocket and, in front of Nathan, slipped a massive diamond ring onto her left ring finger.

“Sorry, I’m married,” she said flatly.

Nathan stared at the dazzling stone, dumbstruck for a long moment.

He was silent for so long that Briar wondered if the ring’s brilliance had blinded him. Finally, he asked, “When did you get married? Why didn’t I hear about it?”

He had always thought that as long as Briar wasn’t legally married to Ashton, he still stood a chance.

He could not believe that they had actually gone ahead and tied the knot behind his back.

Briar casually removed the oversized diamond and tucked it away again. The ring was far too large, cumbersome to wear; she preferred to keep it close, to touch it, not flaunt it.

“It happened when Ashton and I were abroad. I deliberately kept it from you because I was worried you’d be too heartbroken,” Briar replied with a faint smile.

Nathan uttered, “You’re telling me this now? Aren’t you worried about hurting my feelings?”

Briar shrugged in response, “What can I do? I’m a married woman now–I can’t just flirt around. If Ashton found out, I’m afraid he’d toss you into the sea to feed the fish.”


Nathan muttered bitterly, “So being rich and powerful is everything…”

‘How unfair!

‘I was the one who met Briar first. I went through years of ups and downs with her, only to be beaten by a latecomer like Ashton,‘ he silently cried.

“Being rich and powerful is indeed remarkable.” Suddenly, a cold, deep voice cut in from behind. “Do you have a problem with that?”

It was Ashton.
