Chapter 48 I Will Break Your Neck

“Interesting! Did you make this? Was it difficult making something like this?” Rayna was intrigued by the ring. She tapped it twice, and the red light dimmed.

“It’s not too difficult. It’s harder getting the materials,” the brother replied. James managed to get the materials from his instructor because he had put extra effort into his assignment. The material would cost a tonne if he were to sell it off in the market.

James had made two similar rings. One of them had a more appealing design, and James originally wanted to give it to Rayna and the plain one to Roxanne, but Kristie saw the prettier one and took it.

When Kristie saw that ring, she put it on immediately and refused to take it off. She even threw James her credit card, saying, “It’s just a ring. Just charge however much you want for it. I’m not giving it back to you.”

Little did she know, money was not the main issue to James, but regardless, James had no intention of arguing with her, for he dreaded her high-pitched screech most of all.

So, he had no choice but to sacrifice Roxanne. He figured he could just take the ring back from Kristie when he quit.

“Does Roxanne have one?” Rayna suddenly asked. “She’s in the entertainment industry, so I guess she needs this more than I do.”

“She does. I’ll give it to her later.”

Since James had said so, Rayna did not see why she should turn him down. Although the design was not to her taste, Rayna still put it on since it fitted her ring finger nicely and was a tracker made especially by her brother.

When lunch time came, the doorbell rang. It was Roxanne.

“I hope I’m not too late. I came right after I finished the shoot for an ad,” she announced gleefully. She looked at her brother in disbelief upon entering the house. “James! What did you eat at school? You grew so tall!”

“I didn’t have any superfood. You only have yourself to blame for not being as tall,” James ridiculed.

“Hey! I’m a hundred and seventy! I’m taller than Rayna, at least!” Roxanne seethed, kicking James. “Please speak politely to your sister. You’re always so rude. Does it hurt being polite to your elder sister?”

“Why do I feel like you’re younger than me?”

“Cut it out, James!”

“All right. That’s enough. Come over and eat,” Rayna called out, knocking on the table.
