Chapter 13
Not hearing an answer from Reene, Ysabel chided again, “You d*mn girl! I’ll make sure you live in aliving hell if you don’t attend the blind date with Mr. Kean!”With a sigh, Reene said helplessly, “Got it,Mom. I’ll go.”What else could she do when she was no match for that shrew?“See, it wasn’t so hard tosay yes, was it?” That woman’s attitude did a one-eighty faster than Kingsley could pull a trigger.“11:30AM, VIP Room 6, Floor 60 of Ramada Hotel. Don’t be late, alright?”“Got it.”After hanging up,Reene rubbed her temples, resigned. “Guess I can’t get away today.”“Reene, why don’t I clip him foryou?” Serena suggested while skillfully fiddling with a table knife.“Don’t even think about it.”With that,Reene stood up, announcing, “I’ve promised Cecilia to go ring shopping with her in the morning. Afterthat, I’ll go straight to Ramada Hotel. Kingsley, why don’t you come with me?”She wasn’t comfortableleaving Kingsley alone at home, for she was afraid of losing him again when they had lost himonce.Now that he had finally come home, she worried he would suddenly leave without a wordagain.“Fine by me!” Kingsley downed a full glass of milk in one shot. “But who’s Cecilia? Is shebeautiful?”“She’s Reene’s bestie.” Serena shot him a side-eye. “She’s known to be one of the FiveBeauties of Cleapolis. But she’s already engaged. So you’ve got no chance even if you’re the hottestman alive.”“Five Beauties?” Kingsley grinned. “I thought the prettiest women in Cleapolis were myseven sisters?”“Rascal!” Serena and Reene scolded in unison.………A hot young woman was sitting inthe VIP room of Gavell Jewelry Atelier, looking out the window every now and then.Suddenly, shebeamed and waved. “Reene! Over here!”Kingsley, who came along with Reene, couldn’t help but betaken aback upon seeing the young woman.She sure lived up to the name of Five Beauties ofCleapolis!The short, red bodycon dress enveloped her curves nicely, and her impeccable facialfeatures even gave all the hottest celebrities in town a run for their money!After dragging Reene to thecouch, Cecilia took a curious look at Kingsley before turning back to Reene, asking, “Reene, this is…”Itwas the first time she had ever seen a man next to Reene.“He’s the brother I grew up with.”Jaw-dropped, Cecilia covered her mouth. “He… He’s the brother you always talk about?”At that, she sizedhim up. “He’s cute. No wonder you can’t forget about him…”“What are you talking about?” Reene
blushed and cooed, “Hurry up and pick your ring. I have a blind date to go to later!”“Shut up!” Cecilia’seyes widened with incredulity. “No way! The great President Reene Wynn is going on a blinddate?!”“It’s my adoptive mother’s idea. I can’t say no.”“I knew it…” Cecilia understood immediately.“Don’t worry. I’ll go with you. I’ll make sure he goes away without a word!” Just then, a biracial beauty ina uniform suit approached them with a professional fake smile. “Hello, Miss Larson. I’m Gavell JewelryAtelier’s chief jewelry designer, Rosalind. We’ve picked out ten designs as per your request. Why don’tyou take a look and see if you’re happy with any of them?”Following that, a staff member wearing apair of white gloves put a fancy tray super gently on the coffee table in front of the couch.On top of theexpensive gold-laced velvet were ten neatly arranged large top-tier engagement rings, lookingabsolutely dazzling. Cecilia and Reene had their eyes lit up upon seeing them, so excited that theirfaces were flushing.Then again, no woman could say no to sparkly things like this, could they?“Sopretty!” Cecilia wrapped her arms around Reene’s and asked, “Reene, which one do you think looksgood? I don’t know which one to pick anymore!”“They all look very pretty to me.” Reene stared at therings with envy. “You’re the one getting married. You should be the one to pick.”“What do you thinkabout this one?” Cecilia pointed to a round ring.Immediately, Rosalind squatted and introduced, “Theinspiration for this design came from the Royal Family Order of the United Isles. It’s the latest design ofthe season. VIPs get to have a five percent discount, only at 6.66 million.”“Six hundred million…”Reene gasped in shock. “That’s a lot of money…”“It’s already the discounted price.” A hint of disdainthen appeared on Rosalind’s face. “For diamonds of this size, they aren’t expensive.”With that, Ceciliasighed. “Though I loathe arranged marriages, looking at it now, it’s not all that bad. At least it’ll get me adiamond ring.”Reene turned glum in response, and she began wondering if accepting Mr. Kean wasthe better option.“I’ll take this one then,” Cecilia said to Rosalind. “Someone from the Carter Family willcome and pick it up in two days.”“Alright, Miss Larson.”With a successful deal, a hint of sincerity waswoven into Rosalind’s fake smile.However, just as she stood up and had the staff take the rest of therings away, Kingsley spoke up. “Wait.”Then, he looked over at Reene. “Reene, you seem like you likethem too. Why don’t you pick one? I’ll give it to you as a gift.”“Don’t be ridiculous, Kingsley!”At that, shesmiled apologetically at Rosalind. “He’s just joking.”A hint of disdain laced Rosalind’s professional fake
smile after she sized Kingsley up. “Sir, may I suggest that you look for one at the jewelry wholesalemarket in the old town area if you want to buy your girlfriend a ring? You’ll be able to replace what you’relooking for easier.”In other words, ‘only off-the-rack items suited your requirement, for you definitelycouldn’t afford anything here with your budget!’Though it sounded like she was politely advising, inreality, she was beyond contemptuous.“I’ll take all nine of them,” Kingsley announced plainly as heleaned against the couch. “Forget about the discounts. I’ll take them all.”
