chapter26 Worried about having sex with him

'Mine?' Scarlett felt a bit puzzled. Looking at the dazzling necklace, she, once a regular folk, had never even had a chance to lay eyes on such jewelry before. Now, someone was claiming it was hers. The flawless diamond seemed ironic, its brilliance hurting her eyes, and she felt a pang of bitterness. She murmured, 'It's probably worth more than me!'
