Chapter 85 Profess His Love for Her in an Old-Fashioned Way
"But you proposed to me that morning. Have you forgotten it?"
Claire stretched out the finger wearing the ring in front of Bennett and continued, "Ben, you personally
gave it to me that morning. I still wear it now. Have you forgotten all of this?"
Bennett looked at the ring coldly.
The style of the ring was very simple, and it could even be said to be common. The ring was
completely unsuitable for Claire, who was rigged out in her best because the original owner of this ring
was a simple girl.
Bennett grabbed Claire's hand, took the ring off her finger rudely, and threw it into the trash can next to
her ruthlessly.
"Ben, what are you doing?"
Claire was unexpected.
She panicked and hurriedly squatted down to look for the ring in the trash can.
Bennett caught Claire's arm and said, "Can't you see it? No matter the size or style, it has nothing to do
with you."
Claire's eyes suddenly turned red, and she was on the verge of tears.
Couldn't Claire see it?
Claire knew about it from the moment she received the ring.
Everyone wouldn't have a despairing look when he proposed.
Claire knew very well that Bennett's proposal to her that day was just to force himself to give up
Catalina forever!
It was because Catalina would become Bennett's sister-in-law after that day.
Besides, the proposal ring was made by Bennett for Catalina in the past.
"But do you think she will care about the ring you prepared for her? If she cares about you, she couldn't
agree to marry your brother. Bennett, she doesn't love you!"
Bennett didn't change his look, but said in a completely cold voice, "Vincent, see Ms. Park out."
"Yes!" Vincent replied.
Vincent made a gesture to Claire and said, "Ms. Park, let's go! I will see you out."
Claire stood up and sneered, "Bennett, ask yourself. Did you treat your brother fairly? Sooner or later,
your brother will wake up one day!"
"Get out!" Bennett ordered. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Claire had a great deal of heartache.
Even if Claire left no means untried, Bennett still didn't want to look at her more and disliked her in the
end.
Claire clenched her fists and came out of the restaurant unwillingly.
At the gate, when the two waitresses saw Claire, they were stunned for a moment before greeting, "Ms.
Park, good evening."
Claire stopped and asked, "Has anyone else been here just now to come for dinner?"
"Yes, it was a girl, but she has already left. I remembered you just ordered that no one could disturb
your meal with Mr. Shaffer."
"Did you tell her I was inside?"
"Yes, I followed your order."
"Well done."
After speaking, Claire took out a bank card from her handbag and gave it to the waitress. Claire
continued, "There are 20 thousand dollars in this card. You two can divide the money. The password is
six sixes."
"Well..."
The waitress was confused and didn't understand what was going on.
She didn't know why she suddenly had 20 thousand dollars for no reason.
"You deserve it. Just take it!"
After speaking, Claire left gracefully as a winner in her high-heeled shoes.
The waitress hurriedly put the bank card in her pocket, but she felt extremely diffident.
She thought, "Could it be that I just made a mistake? Who was the girl that just left? Why did Ms. Park
care about her so much?"
"Is she the one Mr. Shaffer will really date?"
"But..."
The waitress lowered her head, took out the bank card in her pocket, and glanced at it. Finally, she
decided to pretend to know nothing and put the card back into her pocket.
After Claire left, the atmosphere in the restaurant dropped to a freezing point.
Bennett had a frosty look.
Vincent glanced at Bennett. After hesitating for a few seconds, Vincent plucked up his courage to pick
up the abandoned ring from the trash can.
Vincent knew Bennett, so he could understand that this ring must be very important to Bennett even
just from a subtle look in Bennett's eyes.
Vincent carefully wiped the ring clean. After disinfecting it, he put the ring back beside Bennett's hand.
"Mr. Shaffer, your ring."
Bennett stared at the ring coldly for a long time, without expression or movement.
The picture seemed to be frozen.
Bennett's sharp eyes seemed to pierce the ring.
From Bennett's point of view, he could see clearly that there was still a row of letters carved in the ring.
GX meant Bennett, and GJ meant Catalina. A small heart-shaped pattern was embedded in the middle.
It was an old-fashioned way to profess Bennett's love for Catalina.
It was not at all like what Bennett would do.
But on the contrary, the row of letters was really made by Bennett.
He chiseled them carefully in person.
Bennett did it just because girls at that time liked this kind of romance. To please Catalina, even if
Bennett was unwilling to do so, he still carved it.
However, Bennett at that time never thought that this ring, which showered all his affections upon
Catalina when he was a teenager, could not be given after many years.
Bennett clenched the ring tightly in the palm of his hand as if he would have it into his own flesh for two
pins.
"Is she here?"
Bennett asked Vincent.
Vincent shook his head and replied, "Not yet."
Bennett looked at the watch on his wrist.
It was already 8 p.m.
Bennett pulled a long face.
Looking at the ring in his hand, Bennett thought, "Catalina, if you dare to break the appointment today,
you'll be screwed!"
Bennett was not sure if he would get even with Catalina under his anger because of new and old
hatred.
At 8:30 p.m., Catalina didn't arrive.
At 9 p.m., Catalina still didn't show up...
Driven to distraction, Catalina carried her bag, walking aimlessly on the street.
Catalina walked for more than an hour, and her heel was raw because of her high-heeled shoes, but
she didn't seem to feel the pain at all.
Catalina's heart was much more painful than her heel.
Catalina's thoughts were all in a muddle. Her mind was like a movie, full of all the things that happened
between Catalina and Bennett when they were teenagers.
In high school, Bennett was always a popular figure.
He received all kinds of love letters.
At the beginning, when Bennett received the love letter, his first reaction was to throw it into the trash
can.
There were thousands of unopened love letters that Bennett threw.
He broke all kinds of girls' hearts.
However, he suddenly changed one day.
Bennett no longer threw the love letters he received into the trash can but packed them in bags. Then
he gave all the love letters to Catalina after school.
Catalina remembered that Bennett rode his bicycle slowly in front of her at that time, while she was
ordered to carry the bag of love letters and read them aloud behind him.
At that time, Catalina didn't know how to resist at all, and she had always obeyed Bennett's orders.
