"Patrick, thank you for giving me the coat last time" Barbara suddenly spoke out and quickly interrupted his contemplation.

With his usual smile, she handed him the black bag held in her right hand reluctantly.

Last time she got drenched in the rain and he put the coat on her.

There was his scent lingering on the expensive coat, so she was reluctant to return it to him.

She had long known that the unrequited love was bitter, but all of a sudden, she couldn't help wanting more when she glanced at the unique necklace in his hand.

"Boss, you can go home soon.But I have to transfer for a flight to Paris.For the sake of my hard work for the company, can you give me a piece of jewelry as a reward as well?" She said jokingly as usual.

"What do you want?" Patrick subconsciously asked.

He would buy her whatever she liked in the jewelry store without hesitation.And he would like to do so, regardless of what style she liked or whether it fitted her.

Hearing his promise, Barbara was overjoyed, but then she felt even more disappointed.She had known his coldness for a long time.

If he had always treated any woman this way, then she could tell herself that she could at least be by his side.

But there was just Christina.

The female employees of this luxury jewelry store, which catered to international tourists, all knew some Chinese.

Upon hearing their conversation, an employee immediately rushed forward to recommend the latest and the most expensive jewelry to Barbara.

"I want the one he just bought, the same one." Patrick suddenly felt a great pain in his brain.

His tightened his grip unconsciously on the exquisite bag.He tried not to show his pained and tired look.

With a cold face, he went straight to the soft sofa on the right side of the store so that he could have a rest.

Barbara talked to the clerk in a low voice.

He was not interested in their conversation so he leaned back against the sofa and gasped because of the pain in his brain.

"Miss, I'm sorry, but that ruby necklace was unique...The other necklace designed by the same master jeweler is here.Do you like it?"

"Are you sure you can't find the same one?"

She turned to glance at the man in the rest area, with her words somewhat insistent.

The employee was a little embarrassed.

"I'm very sorry.Even in the branch store, there's none.There's only one of that."
