Jason narrowed his eyes.
Jason did not believe a single word Bethan said.
“Bethan.”
Bonnie, who was in front of them, took a few steps before she remembered Bethan.
She passed the bouquet of roses to the security guard by the side. Just when she turned back, wanting to speak to Bethan, she saw how Jason was looking at Bethan with a vicious gaze.
That gaze made Bonnie’s heart skip a beat. This was the first time she saw Jason having such an expression.
Bonnie instinctively walked over and pulled Bethan’s hand. She placed herself in front of Bethan, blocking her. “Jason, Bethan locking me up in the mental asylum was all a misunderstanding. I’ve already let it go. I hope you do the same too. She’s tagging along to help us pick out our ring. Stop finding fault with her.”
Upon Bonnie’s words only then did Jason’s tensed expression relaxed a little.
He furrowed his brows and looked at Bethan. He smiled. “Thank you so much for your help, Ms. Bethan, taking the time out to accompany Bonnie and me to pick out a ring.”
Bethan smiled flatly. “I’m not busy, I ‘m quite free.”
Jason’s expressions changed. Bonnie no longer bothered with Jason. She directly took Bethan’s hand and strode into the mall.
“This mall used to belong to us, the Craig family, but later on, because the profits were not too good, we sold it out. I don’t know who the current boss is.”
Then, Bonnie directly headed to the jewelry section. “But, no worries, my mission now is just to buy.”
Bethan furrowed her brows and swept a glance at the jewelry on display. She only needed one look to know that the boss of the mall was Brettley.
Bethan had seen many of the jewelry on display before. Some were even her designs.
“Ms. Craig.”
Upon seeing Bonnie, the salesperson of the jewelry store passionately greeted her.
“Are you here to buy a wedding ring?”
Bonnie blushed a little. “Yes.”
“Please look over here.”
The salesperson’s explanation made Bethan sleepy. She laid her head on the counter.
It had to be said that the salesperson was great at promoting. However, when they were explaining the design of the product, it was far from her design concept.
Just when Bethan almost fell asleep, Jason came over.
He placed a cup of water in front of Bethan. Then, he crossed his arms around his chest and looked at Bethan coldly.
“Who would have thought that you are still alive. “
Bethan also smiled. “I never would have thought that you are getting engaged too, Mr. Lane.”
Jason narrowed his eyes. He said in a suppressed tone, “Bethan, know your place. Leave while Bonnie is too busy to notice you. If not, do you believe that all it takes is for me to whisper words into her ears, making her doubt all that you said?”
Bethan chuckled a little. “You’re that great?”
“Of course.”
Jason picked up his cup and took a sip. His gaze was void of any warmth.
“Ms. Bethan, you should know how great I ann. Six years ago, I crashed into you with a car. I thought that you had died, but I never thought that you survived. Not long ago, at Sea City Airport, you had a miscarriage. I hid you in a secluded corner. You almost died too. Do you still remember?”
Bethan narrowed her eyes. She clenched her fists tightly.
Jason, in front of her, was still looking smug.
“You better leave now. I can still spare your life.”
Bethan laughed.
“Because of the incident six years ago, I used to be afraid of you. Perhaps previously, if you threatened me, I would really be frightened by you, but now…”
Bethan smiled. She gracefully picked up the cup of water and took a sip.
“Do you think I’m still afraid of your threats?”
She has already lost Neil and was about to lose Nigel. Even Nellie was depressed and autistic.
Could life be any worse for her?
Also, sometimes, Bethan thought that if she were to be more courageous back then and directly went up against Jason, not ignoring him stalking her, would things have been different?
Thus, at that moment, she decided that she would start with Jason.
She would let Jason, and Brettley, who was supporting him, pay the price they should have paid!
“How is this! “
Just when Bethan and Jason were in a tense stand -off, Bonnie excitedly rushed over. She showed off the diamond ring on her finger to both of them.
“I like this one a lot! “
Bethan furrowed her brows, then she smiled. “This is my design.”
Bonnie’s eyes instantly widened. “Wow! “
She grabbed Jason’s arm excitedly! “Bethan’s amazing! “
Jason furrowed his brows inconspicuously and nodded his head superficially. “Amazing, amazing.”
Bonnie did not notice that something was off with Jason. She excitedly pulled him over to try out rings.
Bethan had nothing to do. She went over to inform Bonnie before shopping around at the mall.
“Do you think Brettley Morrison would like this type of pure white dress?”
When Bethan was at a women’s wear shop, a sweet, melodious voice rang out. Upon hearing a familiar name being mentioned, Bethan furrowed her brows and stopped in her tracks.
She subconsciously looked in the direction of the shop and saw a slender figure in the shop.
The lady was wearing a long white linen dress. Her long black hair was by her waist.
Just by looking at her figure, Bethan sensed a pitiful aura oozing from the lady.
Next to the lady stood another middle-aged woman. The woman gently chuckled.
“You look good in anything, Ms. Blake.”
The lady paused a little. Her voice was gentle. “Today is the first time I’m meeting Brettley. I want to leave a good impression.”
“He will definitely have a good impression on you…”
Upon hearing their conversation, Bethan sneered, turned, and left.
Even if Brettley was a scumbag, but with his face and wealth…
He was never short of blind women.
After walking for a short while, Bonnie called Bethan. She and Jason had already chosen their rings. They were about to go have lunch, so they invited Bethan along.
Bethan accepted their invitation.
Although those words that Jason said to her a moment ago had already revealed his true colors, if Bethan wanted Bonnie to give up on him…
Bethan grabbed the recording device in her pocket. It was not enough.
Bonnie picked the restaurant for lunch, it was located below the mall.
It was the famous Bamboo Palace.
The moment Bethan entered Bamboo Palace, she was feeling extremely emotional.
The last time she was there, she was with Theo. At that moment…
