The Price

He was somewhat embarrassed as his aim seemed to be guessed by the woman.

This made him a little slow in responding.

Suddenly, the woman took out one of the jewelry boxes inside the display table. It contained ten rings where each of them had small diamonds attached to them, some were white, blue, red, and black in color.

"Sir, I recommend you choose one of these rings," the woman said with a faint smile.

"These rings are carefully crafted and we mix them with some rare materials that will make them very shiny when exposed to light. Take a look..." The woman then pointed the light from a flashlight at the jewelry box.

Instantly, light bounced off the rings, making Aldric feel so dazzled that he closed his eyes.

Fortunately, the woman immediately turned off the flashlight.

"Your beloved must be a very beautiful woman," the woman continued, smiling faintly at Aldric as if she could guess what she looked like.
