Where Did This Ring Come From?

At this moment, he actually came back.

Skyler’s face turned pale.

Meeting Logan’s deep and cold eyes, her body trembled inexplicably, and her forehead throbbed.

She vaguely felt a sense of unease but couldn’t say what it was.

“You’re back,” Logan spoke to her in a rare gentle tone.

His low and magnetic voice made it hard to tell his emotions.

Skyler nodded.

“Um… forgot to buy groceries. I’ll go to the supermarket downstairs first…”

Snap—

She had just turned around when two black, tattered plastic bags were thrown onto the floor by the man.

Women’s clothing, daily necessities, and other things rolled out of the bags and scattered all over the floor.

Skyler saw the things on the ground, and her scalp tingled.

Those two plastic bags were the ones she brought with her, and everything on the floor was from her room!

“Mr. Lee, what are you doing…”

“Skyler, did I not tell you that if you dare to break my rules again, you’ll be out? Two hundred thousand… you really have a good trick. No wonder you didn’t like the eight thousand red envelope my grandfather gave you. Turns out it wasn’t enough,” Logan said.

“I… I didn’t, I didn’t mean to…” Skyler suddenly realized what Logan was talking about.

Logan knew about what happened during the day!

He thought she had cheated Uncle Wilson out of his money!

“No, Mr. Lee, the money today was from Uncle Wilson…”

“I don’t want to hear any explanations.”

Logan’s low, cold voice interrupted her.

His tall, lean body was draped in a layer of gloom as he leaned against the sofa, his long legs crossed. The way he looked at her was as if he was looking at the most despicable and filthy thing.

“Skyler, you broke the rules when you dared to lay a hand on my grandfather, and now our cooperation is over. If one million isn’t enough for you, then let’s just forget about it altogether. I want to see 1.2 million back in my account by the end of tomorrow’s workday. Now, disappear in front of me…”

Logan’s long, slender index finger pointed coldly toward the door.

He had lost all patience and sentenced Skyler to death.

“No… it’s not like that, Mr. Lee… I didn’t lay a hand on Uncle Wilson…”

“I… I didn’t…”

Skyler stood still for several seconds before she finally snapped out of the daze caused by the thunderbolt.

Logan wanted her to return the one million!

Logan was actually canceling the contract and asking her to return one million!

Where was she going to get one million from???

She needed that one million more than anyone else. Her mother was still waiting for surgery in the hospital. She couldn’t even afford the small amount, let alone 1.2 million!

“Mr. Lee, I know I was wrong… I really know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have done those things that made you angry!”

“I promise you, I will be obedient from now on… please don’t drive me away, I can’t lose that money, please…”

Skyler stumbled and fell at Logan’s feet, frantically grabbing his sleeve and begging for his forgiveness.

Her tear-stained face was frail, delicate, and pitiful, especially her eyes that seemed to speak, even more so against the scar on her forehead, making people want to embrace her tightly.

Logan’s dark eyes slightly sank with a subtle emotion when he caught sight of the scar on Skyler’s forehead.

But in an instant, he fiercely furrowed his brows.

Such a greedy and dirty woman, yet she had such a face that almost made him forgive her and keep her by his side.

Unfortunately, her methods were too despicable.

She dared to lay hands on the old man, which violated his principle.

Logan’s thin lips tightened into a cold straight line, intending to completely get Skyler out of his sight.

Suddenly, a necklace with a black ring fell off as Skyler pulled on it.

The ring was hanging on the necklace.

Familiar beyond words.

The obsidian ring was encrusted with countless sparkling diamonds.

Logan, who had intended to push the woman away, felt a slight tremor in his heart.

This ring was the one he had left at the club that night.

How could his ring be in Skyler’s hands?

Could it be…

Suddenly, Logan’s blood boiled and roared throughout his body.

As if realizing something.

He grabbed the small woman who had fallen to the ground and pulled the necklace around her neck, asking in a deep voice—

“This ring, where did you get it from?”
