Chapter 4
Leonard still did not come back home that night. He was accompanying Lily. The company group chat was buzzing with gossip and discussions about the two of them. "Mr. Harmon is being way too cautious, isn't he? It's just a small wound, but he just had to take her to the hospital."
"It's his precious darling, alright? Mr. Harmon was worried sick."
"Did Eva come to the office today just to catch the mistress?"

There were only a few pieces of jewelry that I could wear anytime. Standing in front of the jewelry cabinet, I gave up when I saw the electronic lock. If I smashed the cabinet now, I might even lose my chance to have the surgery.
In the end, I only found a pair of gold earrings and a pitifully small diamond ring in my little box. Leonard said that this was the engagement ring he had prepared back then.
