She Got A Better Man

Chapter 48 27920

When Elvira dropped Cole off, he presented her with a bracelet that he had prepared for her. Opening the box to find a beautiful diamond bracelet inside, she asked in surprise, "Where did you get the money to buy this?"

"I saved up for it," he replied, his mood heavy, yet his expression remained stoic.

"With your monthly budget of 600 dollars covering food, clothing, housing, and transportation, you managed to save up for a bracelet?" she was truly impressed by his dedication.

"It didn't cost that much," he responded flatly.

"Get some rest too. Good night," he said before getting out of the car and watching her drive away.

Having known him for seven years, Elvira, who had even given him his name, felt that Cole was always devoting himself to her these years without asking for returns and she could no longer allow him to continue living in hardship for her sake. Upon returning home, Zach saw Elvira putting something shiny into a box and asked, "What's that?"

"A friend gave me the bracelet. Have you eaten yet?" she replied, putting the bracelet away and getting up to greet him

"Aren't you going to explain? What kind of male friend? Huh?" he asked with a hint of jealousy.
