The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

Chapter 1325
But she didn’t dare slack off, putting her heart into presenting the rings on
display.
“The plain bands are sturdy and practical, the intricate designs are eye-catching,
and the classic ones never go out of style. It all depends on what your girlfriend
prefers,” the saleslady said with a pleasant smile.
Lysander’s brows furrowed slightly. He hadn't anticipated that buying a ring could
be such a hassle. “Wrap them all up,” he said decisively
The sales associate was stunned, almost thinking she had misheard. She asked
again for confirmation, “Mr. Sinclair, are you sure you want all of them?”
“Do I need to repeat myself?” Lysander lifted his eyes, a hint of displeasure in his
gaze.
The sales associate's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly apologized, “No, of
course not. I'll get them all wrapped up for you right away.”
She hurriedly beckoned a colleague to help, and together they started packaging
every ring from the display. They had never encountered such a big purchase
before. Their faces couldn't help beaming with joy.
David wasn't surprised by Lysander’s actions. That was just like his boss-never
stingy when it came to the woman he loved. He wished to give her the very best
of everything. Previously, Lysander had custom-ordered a ring called
Remembrance with an Azure Star sapphire in it-a gem unique in the whole world.
He had arranged for the sapphire to be nestled inside a cloud design, a secret
surprise for Thalassa. His love for her was intense, yet he carried it with a quiet
passion.
When the rings were all packaged, Lysander handed his card to David, who went
to process the payment. Moments later, David came back laden with several
large bags.
Their next stop was Star Harbor Villa.
David thought about the upcoming proposal and felt his heart swell with
happiness. Even the car seemed to speed along more eagerly.
Evelyn entered the Vibrant Oasis Residences card room.
The elderly wasn't playing cards as usual but had gathered to pore over some
gossip on their smartphones, gasping and tsk-tsking.
“Good Lord, is that Evelyn who used to play cards with us?”
“That's her, for sure. She always seemed so prim and proper, but look at her
now, chasing after men.”
“That's normal, isn't it? A woman living single for so many years without a man
would be odd.”
“Even if she longed for a man, getting married would be respectable. But carrying
on with a married man? Look at her, flaunting herself in his bed. Tsk, tsk... She
should be collecting some virtue for her daughter and grandchildren.”
Evelyn's heart raced as she overheard the chatter.
She rushed forward, “What are you reading?”
The card players turned their heads, giving her a glance filled with mockery and
scorn.
“Oh, Evelyn, we never thought you'd be so inept at both cards and choosing
men. You've taken up with a married man and you've been brazen in bed. You
have no shame.”
“Your daughter having so many kids out of wedlock. Is she following in your
footsteps with men on the side?”
Stung by their words, Evelyn's mind buzzed, her chest heaving with emotion.
She lunged to snatch the smartphone.
“Watch your mouths! Or I'll sue you for defamation!” Evelyn was panting with fury.
