Fleur sped along, with her bodyguards trailing behind in a state of panic. Eventually, she pulled over at the entrance of DL Mall.

She hadn’t informed anyone in advance, so no one was there to clear the area or welcome her.

Lena stood at the opulent store’s entrance, uncertain of what to do.

“Go inside!” Fleur urged impatiently. “Everything in there is a limited edition. Pick a ring. Don’t worry about the price.”

Lena’s eyes widened.

“Oh no, consider the price!” Fleur thought for a moment. “We can’t let them think my family can’t afford a ring. Go in and choose the most expensive one, got it?”

Lena was rendered speechless.

“Okay, okay, that’s the plan!” Fleur said, turning away. “Select one. I’ll be back after using the restroom.”

“Mrs. Hamerton—”

Fleur hurriedly left before Lena could respond.

Lena surveyed the store, marveling at its sophistication. They sold diamonds there, and the store itself was like a colossal, gleaming diamond that left one dazzled.

The exterior alone hinted at outrageously high prices.

The store was spacious, with more employees than customers, and even the floors were gilded.

Lena took a deep breath and contemplated calling Chris but hesitated, fearing Fleur’s reaction. She summoned her courage and entered the store.

Yet, no one came forward to greet her.

The sales assistants seemed uninterested in helping her because of her plain attire. They glanced at her with indifference and remained expressionless.

Lena approached the counter, where rows of sparkling diamond rings glistened before her.
