Chapter 88

When Blake didn’t see the necklace, he frowned. “Why aren’t you wearing it?”

Evelyn had just pressed the elevator button when she recalled that the necklace had been a free gift. She replied calmly, “I lost it.”

Blake looked at her more closely. Seeing that she showed no obvious emotion, he said, “In that case, there’s no helping it. I’ll buy you another one.”

Evelyn paused. “There’s no need. I don’t want it.”

To say it didn’t sting would be a lie. Since when had Blake become so dismissive of her? Money was never an issue for him—he could easily afford expensive jewelry–yet he had chosen to give her a freebie.

Blake narrowed his eyes. The only reason he had given her that diamond necklace was because he had let her down a few days ago. He had thought a simple gift would be enough to smooth things over.

But Evelyn’s persistent attitude was starting to irritate him. “When did you become so careless? You’ve always taken good care of the things I give you. Evie, if you want something else, just say it–there’s no need to play games.”
