How a Dying Woman Rewrote Her Epilogue
Chapter 88
Calmly, she said, "I lost it."
Only then did Ivan really look at her. Noticing she showed no real emotion, he finally spoke. "If it's lost, it's lost. I'll just buy you another one."
Elodie froze for a second. "That's not necessary. I don't need it."
Pretending it didn't sting her pride was a lie. Since when had Ivan learned to humiliate her like this?

Ivan narrowed his eyes. The only reason he'd bothered with the diamond necklace in the first place was to smooth things over after he'd let her down a few days back. He figured a little sweet talk and a gift would settle it.
But Elodie's stubborn refusal was starting to grate on his nerves.

He didn't believe for a second that Elodie had really lost it.
