Chapter 8 Sell the Ring Too

I touched the ring on my hand. When Henry presented this ring to, his eyes sparkled, and the ring shone brighter than the stars
But now, the diamond ring had lost its luster, just like my marriage, dull and tasteless.
I said thoughtfully. ‘T’ll think about it.‘
I took off the ring and handed it to Nowa. My hand felt empty, and did my heart.
“I have some other jewelry here; help me sell them too, I pulled much box from under the bed and handed it to Nova Nova said a little anxiously, “These were left to you by your parents; you’ve always kept them as mementos.”
I smiled bitterly, “What’s the use of mementos when I’m about to lose my life?”
Compared to these flashy things, money was the most important thing to me now.
Nova then took them with trembling hands. “Don’t say that; you will survive, and you will be happy.”
I smiled and said nothing.
The money from selling these pieces of jewelry was far from enough for my subsequent treatment.
It was unrealistic to ask Henry for money every time. I needed to think of a way to make money.
Before marrying Henry, I studied jewelry design.
After marrying him, he restricted my social interactions and didn’t allow me to work.
He kept me at home in this way, gradually making me a woman who could only rely on him,

Chapter B Sell the Ring Too
I clicked on it and save a vidiskol Henry surfing with Arla.
Under the blue sky and sea, Henry helst Arian’s stenster waist, his eyes gentle, and a faint smile on his lips.
I opened the comments and casually scrolled through them.
Everyone thought they should be the couple.
Mr. Phillips spoils his girlfriend so much, first with a drone propos and now taking her surfing, so romantic–1

Clearly, I was Henry’s wife, b
but now I felt like a hidden mistress, silently watching him enjoy life with his lover.
I was unhappy, and I didn’t want them to be happy either.
I commented: [Mr. Phillips is already married; his wife is his college classmate; I have their wedding photos.
But this inconspicuous comment was quickly buried. I silently closed the comments.
I once thought Henry’s tenderness towards me was unique, but now it seemed it was all fake.

Soon, my first order came. The client’s requirements were not high, but the deadline was tight, needing it done within a day and revised until satisfied.
We agreed on the price, a two–thousand–dollar deposit, and a three–thousand–dollar balance.
I took the money and promised to deliver the draft by 10 PM the next day,
I spent the whole night drawing and sent the finished draft to the client immediately. The result was surprisingly good, and they didn’t ask for any revisions, transferring the balance to me.
The next day, when Brian came to check on me, he frowned. “Did you stay up all night?”
I considered Brian a friend and didn’t hide it from him.
He looked at me with a hint of pity in his eyes.
