The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

Chapter 314

Chapter 315

After Rachel lost her necklace in the last game, she was downcast for days. The disappointment lingered so long that her health took a hit-she ended up in the hospital a few more times, all because she couldn't shake the gloom.

Later, Haynes had told her he'd get her a new necklace, one even finer than the one that had belonged to Stella's mother. He'd promised, "It'll be better, never worse."

And now, gazing at the dazzling Neptune's Tear before her, Rachel finally understood.

Tears welled in her eyes, her voice trembling with gratitude. "Haynie, you really don't have to do all this for me."

Haynes' deep, steady gaze rested on her. "Neptune's Tear, paired with your Nereid's Sonata performance, will be absolutely perfect."

Truthfully, Rachel had only wanted Stella's mother's necklace to spite Stella. But compared to the breathtaking piece before her now, that old necklace seemed utterly insignificant.

Every thought in Rachel's mind was now consumed by Neptune's Tear. She was already picturing herself on stage-Neptune's Tear glittering at her throat, Nereid's Sonata in her hands-how enchanting she would look.
