Chapter 489
“According to the rumors, at that time, in order to obtain this ring, Mr. Hale even had a confrontation with a jewelry tycoon from Tartan.”
“Yes, it was on the news back then. Mr. Hale himself confirmed that ‘Moon and Stars Intertwined‘ was indeed in his possession.”
“I didn’t expect the engagement ring to be fake. That’s disgusting…”
The atmosphere in the venue became muddled.
For the ring to be fake…
That was as disgusting as eating a fly, especially when it was an engagement ring.
Seeing this, Zenith took the opportunity to criticize, “Andrius, trash will always be trash. Even your engagement ring is fake. It shows that you’re hypocritical and pretentious. This is all you’ll amount to in your life!”
With those leading words, the sentiment in the hall instantly changed.
Andrius, who was previously seen as ‘affectionate, devoted, and elegant‘, was now‘
hypocritical and pretentious‘.
“He looked decent, so I didn’t expect him to be a complete hypocrite. He’s not even using a real engagement ring. He must be out of his mind!”
“Exactly. Get off the stage. Don’t embarrass yourself.”
“The most important thing in love and marriage is sincerity. If you can’t afford a real diamond ring, you should just admit it. Don’t be such a phony. Everyone will be able to understand. However, you put on airs instead. That’s low!”
“A man like that doesn’t deserve love!”
“Get lost…”
Women were emotional creatures and were driven by feelings more than reason. Under Zenith’s influence, they immediately began to criticize and even viciously insult Andrius.
‘Heh.‘ Zenith secretly rejoiced when he heard those words.
What was so great about playing the piano?
What was so great about sweet nothings?
What was so great about being handsome?
In love, it was all about money!
What was the use of a gentleman who achieved nothing?
In the end, it still came down to money. Money talked.
Who could refuse a wealthy young master with billions in assets?
Who could refuse a rich man with hundreds of millions? No one!
“Sorry, Andrius, but I win!”
Zenith thought he had the high ground and looked mockingly at Andrius, wanting to see the latter’s miserable and depressed state.
However, in the blink of an eye, he froze.
He saw Luna hold out her hand to Andrius who put the “Moon and Stars Intertwined” ring on her slender finger!
Zenith felt like he had been slapped across the face. It was a sudden and abrupt blow.
He was dumbfounded. In a daze, he asked in a hoarse voice, “Luna, why? The ring that Andrius gave you is clearly fake. The ring I have is the real deal. Why did you choose him?
“I’m Zenith Mangold, the young master of the Mangolds from the capital. How am I inferior to this bumpkin?”
At that moment, Zenith was on the verge of madness.
However, Luna did not respond immediately. She rubbed the ring, spread her fingers, and let the boundless radiance fall on it. She played with it fondly before speaking softly.
“Yes, I admit that Andrius was born in the western mountainous area. He doesn’t have the power and influence of the Mangolds. He’s usually sloppy and likes to talk big.”
Luna glanced at Zenith for a moment before looking at Andrius, her eyes infinitely tender.
“However, every time something happens, Andrius always stands in front of me without hesitation. He shields me and gives me his shoulder to lean on. As he said, life is a long journey, and love has no destination. The best love is one whereby we walk hand in hand.”
Luna’s words were calm but not dull or plain. They were like silent thunder that revealed the truth in the subtlest moments. She toyed with the ring on her finger again, and a smile appeared on her lips.
“Yes, this ring is fake. However… Ever since we got married, Andrius‘ love and protection for me have been real.”
Married?
Married!
So, Andrius and Luna were already husband and wife.
And Zenith was the homewrecker trying to interfere in their relationship!
The scene exploded in an instant.
“Dude, they’re already married, but you proposed so shamelessly. Don’t you feel ashamed? Just hearing about it makes me disgusted!”
“How dare you slander their relationship when they’re husband and wife? Where’s your shame?”
“They’re a legitimate couple protected by the law. The man is a warrior who fights for love. He deserves admiration and our blessings!”
“Who the hell do you think you
are?”
