With these thoughts running through her mind, Vera Wave's heart began to harbor some doubts.
She remembered quite clearly that not long after she met Kris Cooper, she noticed a pair of rings hanging around his neck.
She hadn't paid them much attention before. Thinking about it now, however, she realized there was no way these rings were specifically purchased for her.
Could there be some hidden story behind these rings?
As she was contemplating this, her door was knocked on once again.
It must be Irene Spencer bothering me again, Vera Wave thought. She rolled her eyes and stayed put in her chair.
"Enough is enough!"
Vera Wave sat in her chair, playing dead. After a moment of silence, the knocking began again. She still ignored it. Then, after a few more knocks, it stopped.
The silence lasted only a few seconds before her cellphone rang.
On the screen, the name displayed prominently was "Top Customer". Vera Wave's mood instantly brightened, and she answered the call.
