Yorrick frowned. “You shameless ba*stard!”
‘Is he planning to prolong his stay here and continue to bring more chaos into my life?’
Nolan put down the teacup, and his expression remained unchanged. “Why should I act tactfully when
I’m with you?”
Yorrick laughed out of wrath, propped his arms against the edge of the table, and glared at Nolan. “Did
Maisie take a fancy to you because of your brazenness?”
Nolan rolled up his sleeves casually. “Then do enlighten me. How many shameless crappy things have
you done when you were trying to grab yourself a wife?”
Yorrick was rendered speechless.
Standing upstairs, Maisie and Xyla turned
around together, and Xyla bumped her arm with her elbow. “Are the both of them always like this?”
Maisie turned to look at Xyla. “You’re just getting to know them. They’re both already in their 30s, and yet
they act so childishly.’
Xyla had gotten her horizon widened.
‘Mr. Goldmann has always been a regal and prominent man in front of the public, he’s never been
friendly, and he constantly emits an aura that alienates others and that prevents strangers from
approaching him. But that doesn’t seem to be the case when he’s around Yorrick, does it? Some might
even think that they’re a couple, and we ladies are both redundant.’
Maisie patted Xyla on the shoulder.” There’s nothing strange about that. Nolan mocks everyone that he’s
with. It used to be Helios, but Yorrick has been turned into his temporary punching bag now that we’re in
Yaramoor. You haven’t even gotten the opportunity to be there to witness when he teases his
grandfather.”
Xyla could not help but laugh out loud as she walked back to the room with Maisie.’ That sounds nice. At
least I now know that Mr. Goldmann truly loves his wife.”
Maisie sat down on the end of the bed.” Yorrick treats you very well too.”
Xyla walked up to the French window, pulled the curtain open, and stared at the raindrops that dripped
onto the glass. He’s really treating me like a queen right now.’
‘He had never failed to piss me off every second before he confessed his feelings for me.’
She turned around, glanced at Maisie, and laughed. “The feeling of both parties walking toward each
other at the same time in a relationship feels so different from the feeling of being the person who’s
chasing after someone who’s walking away from her. I get it now.”
Maisie got up and walked to the window.’ That’s why you should consider yourself one of those lucky
ones.”
Xyla smiled, looked out the window, and said nothing.
The rain gradually stopped, and the originally gloomy sky became much clearer. Maisie and Nolan were
about to depart from the mansion. But she remembered something right before they departed and
walked up to Xyla. “I have something for you.”
Xyla was startled. She then lowered her head and took the box that Maisie handed over. “There’s even a
gift for me?” She opened the box, and there was a ruby ring lying inside, the one that she had endorsed
while she was working with Soul Jewelry.
Xyla could not help but laugh.
‘She actually gave me the ring that I endorsed before this.’
Yorrick walked up to her from behind and saw the ring in her hand. “Isn’t this the ring that you endorsed
back then?” “How do you know that?” Xyla turned around and stared at him, looking a little surprised.
Yorrick could not help but chuckle. “I’ve gone through all the products that you’ve endorsed in the past,
and I was very impressed by this ring.”
Xyla lifted her eyebrows and smiled. “Oh really? Did you go over them on purpose?”
Yorrick stroked her cheek with his palm.” Maisie has prepared a ring for you, so shouldn’t there be one
for me too?”
“This is the only one in the world, and it’s meant to be given to me and only me. What makes you think
that you’ll be getting one too?” Xyla pinched the ring tightly.
“Are you sure?” Yorrick squinted slightly. He took the ring in Xyla’s hand and twisted it gently. The ring
separated into two different rings and instantly became a pair of couple’s rings.
Xyla was shocked. “What is,”
Yorrick picked up the two rings and chuckled. “Aren’t these a couple’s rings?”
How did you know?” Xyla had not realized the ring itself consisted of a pair of rings. She had always
thought that there was only one ring.
Yorrick scoffed. “Maisie used to be a jewelry designer that worked under Luxella Inc., and such two-in-
one couple’s rings was a creative idea that she came up with back then. One of the rings would be
named ‘The One’ while the other one would be named The Only’.”
“So you and I, we’ll be the one and only when we come together.”
A car was driving slowly in the city.
Nolan asked Maisie about the gift that she had given to Xyla, and Maisie gave off a meaningful grin. “It’s
a ring.”
