Chapter 21

“Baby, don’t look at him. Look at me, all

right?” Charles tried his best to draw

Sonia’s gaze back from the window.

“I’m more handsome than Carl, okay? Or do you like virgins like him more?”

Having had her thoughts interrupted,

Sonia didn’t know if she should be

angry or laugh, so she rolled her eyes

at him. “When I was young, I thought

you were narcissistic. Who knew you’d

grow up worse.”

“I’m just aware of how handsome

am!” Charles chuckled. “Really, baby.

Don’t you want to marry me? The

Ocean’s Heart is nothing. I will find the

world’s most unique diamond ring to

propose to you!”

Sonia and Charles grew up together, and they often dropped by each other’s houses, so they were extremely close. Sonia knew that Charles was just trying to cheer her up because he knew that she was upset.

She was indeed rather amused by his

remarks, and she even remembered

the things she had neglected.

Sonia opened her handbag and took

out a ring from one of the

compartments. Even in the dim lighting

of the car, the diamond was still

dazzling.

This was her wedding ring.

Sonia looked at the wedding ring in her hand, and everything that happened tonight flashed rapidly through her

mind.

She recalled the scene of Toby kneeling down and proposing to Tina, almost as if he was spoiling her, and the scene where he protected Tina… Her calm heart began to make waves

again.

Through the rearview mirror, Charles

saw the ring, but he didn’t make a joke

about it. “Baby, you know that some

people look like humans, but they don’t

deserve to be humans. If you meet

again in the future, you have to take a

detour”

“Okay.” It was only a few dozen seconds, but Sonia’s heart was already at peace.

She placed the wedding ring on the

armrest compartment in the center,

and her tone was calm when she said,

“Sell this wedding ring for me too.

Donate the money to the people in the

poor mountain areas.”

With that, Sonia leaned back in her

chair and looked at the scenery

flashing by outside the car window,

and her whole being calmed down.
