I knew that Michael was making things difficult for me on purpose. As such, I continued hanging my head low and did not reply.

“Since you don’t want it, I’ll just throw it away.”

Noticing my silence, Michael frowned and rolled down the car window.

 

Just when he was about to throw the necklace out of the window, I yelled, “Wait!”

Given his character, I knew that he meant his words. But how could he throw away something so valuable?

 

Michael halted his actions and tossed the necklace to me instead.

“From now onward, you are not allowed to reject any presents from me.”

Michael did not look at me when he said that.

I bet he was the only person in the world who would force another person to accept his gifts without considering their feelings. What an egomaniac!

“Thank you.”

I was actually grateful that the man had remembered to bring me a gift. However, I felt a tad guilty for accepting it.

Michael slammed the breaks at the next red light and turned to face me.

He took out the diamond necklace and put it around my neck.
