At the pedestrian walkway of the Greenway Road.
That was the widest pedestrian walkway in Donghai City. The place was crowded with young people going out on the weekend.
Darryl was about to explain his background to Lily when he was interrupted by Skyler's phone call. Lily did not pursue further too.
Lily was holding tight onto Darryl's hands. Walking happily while holding a large cotton candy on her other hand that Darryl had bought for her.
"Dear, do you think the pair of jeans earlier looked good?" Lily asked softly.
Lily saw a pair of jeans when they passed by some shops earlier. She did not stop to check it out as she felt that she might find something even better later.
That was a typical lady shopping, always debating to buy or not to buy during the entire trip.
"It looked nice, let's buy it." Darryl replied.
Lily had always had the perfect figure. The pair of jeans would be a perfect match with The Worship of Crystal.
They reached a jewelry shop as they spoke. Lily smiled "Dear, let's buy that later. Let's take a look at the jewelry for now."
"Sure, sure." Darryl smiled and nodded.
Once they stepped in, Lily's eyes were attracted by a sapphire necklace displayed on the pedestal.
A love-shaped sapphire pendant, surrounded by diamonds all over it. The workmanship was so fine, it looked really elegant.
The shop assistant immediately went forward to explain more about the necklace as she noticed their arrival. "How are you? This is a new arrival item; the name of the necklace is Eternal Love."
Eternal Love, what a wonderful name.
Lily was really attracted to the necklace. She sighed, "What a beautiful necklace."
Just at that moment, a female voice was heard saying "Dear, look how beautiful this Eternal Love is, get it for me."
A couple stepped in, both of them look great. What a perfect match.
They looked at Lily and was startled "Lily? It has been a long time."
Both of them were university mates with Lily. The man was Lincoln Dann, while the lady was Denise Warren. Lincoln was Lily's admirer during the university days.
Unexpectedly both of them ended up together after all the years.
Lily was stunned, she smiled "Oh hi, what a coincidence, we have not met since graduation."
Denise smiled and stepped forward in her stilettos "Yes, what a coincidence."
She was not happy with the fact that Lincoln was an admirer of Lily's before. She was definitely annoyed at Lily.
Denise took a glance at Darryl and said "Lily, is this your husband? I heard he is a live-in husband. I still remember you had so many admirers during the university days, pick any one of them, would be more capable than your husband now."
Darryl squeezed his brow in annoyance.
Sh*t!
He thought that being Lily's friends, they would have had a nice relationship. He did not expect such hurtful words to come out from Denise's mouth.
They looked good in their dressing but had no manners at all.
Lincoln went forward at that time too, and laughed "Lily, I met your mother, Samantha the other day. She told me about your husband. Not only is he not working and just laying around at home, he even got arrested for stealing a cellphone. Is that true?"
Lincoln visited Lily's family during the university times, hence he had met Samantha.
The shop assistant could not stop but laugh as she looked at Darryl with disdain.
Lily was furious, she wanted to fight back, but she could not. Darryl being arrested for stealing a cellphone was true.
Lincoln gave a cold smile seeing that Lily did not respond. 'You didn't pick me when I treated you as my Goddess. Look where you ended now? With a thief, and a live-in husband?' thought Lincoln.
Darryl squeezed his brows and ignored them. He said to the shop assistant "How much is this Eternal Love? I would like to buy it."
Since Lily liked the necklace, he planned to just purchase it and leave.
Ignoring Darryl's words, Lincoln added "Don't sell it to him. How many necklaces of this do you have? I want all of them."
The shop assistant was in shock. She then smiled and replied "I'm sorry misters, there is only one. There is only one of it in the entire Donghai City. The price is very expensive."
Expensive? How expensive?
The shop assistant smiled and said "Dear misters, this necklace is designed by the famous designer Miss Meena. I'm not sure if you have heard about her, she is one of the top designers in the world. Eternal Love is her work. That is why it is very expensive."
Just at that time, the shop assistant pointed at Lily and Denise's shoes "Miss, both of you are wearing The Worship of Crystal?"
