She Got A Better Man

Chapter 25

Calvin's head buzzed. He gripped the bidding sign tightly, frozen in place. He couldn't bid anymore. Sensing the mocking gazes on him, he felt humiliated. It was worse when Elvira was looking at him too. He wished he could disappear. Judy didn't look good either. She glanced at Calvin, hoping he would bid again. She didn't want to be laughed at

After three inquiries, no one raised the bid anymore. The host closed the bid on Eternity.

Judy's heart sank like a stone. She realized Calvin didn't look good and the outcome was unchangeable. She endured the humiliation and consoled softly. "Calvin, it's okay. It's just a ring. Let's find a renowned designer to design a bigger and better one. I always thought this ring was too ordinary. I didn't like it much."

Someone nearby couldn't help but laugh. Judy was only criticizing the ring because she didn't get it. Calvin and Judy could barely sit still.

Calvin looked at the gentle and sensible Judy and felt guilty. "Sorry, Judy. I couldn't follow through on my promise. I'll get a better ring for you."

"Sure. Judy leaned against Calvin, but her eyes were full of anger.

"See if there's anything else you like. I'll bid for it." Calvin wanted to make it up to Judy.
