WEAK Seeing that Samantha was unwilling to reveal anything, Samantha thought she was just too shy to share details, so she stopped pushing.She turned to Brian and asked.What's the matter? Are you unwilling to apologize and explain your behavior?Brian was in a bad mood and didn't wanna argue, so he went to the kitchen to cook dinner.Or is he cursed and sat down? How rude. Other than his cooking, we don't know anything else about him. He's really useless.After dinner, Samantha wanted to say something to Brian but hesitated.She wanted to tell him that there was nothing between her and Nick.But when she thought about Brian's attitude, she grew irritated and went to bed instead.After tossing and turning in bed for an unknown amount of time, Samantha found she couldn't fall asleep.Brian couldn't sleep either, and you could hear his wife's restlessness beside him.So you began softly.Do you wanna tell me about Nick and you as kids?We just grew up together. He always flirted with me, but
SHE’S MINE “Isn't Director Samantha already married? Isn't she married to that security guard?”“ Yeah, but he's a loser”. “Maybe she's finally realized she can do better, I mean, look at that handsome man who could turn him down.When Nick heard their chattering, he became even more confident.He strode in to Samantha and took out a small, exquisitely made box. “Samantha”, he said.“When you were seven years old, you told me that you loved necklaces. At the time I couldn't afford a very nice one for you, but now I want to give you the best”.He opened the box lid and held it out to her so she could see inside.He then asked smoothly. “Do you like it?” Everyone could see the courting behavior he was displaying.It was only one step shy of falling to one knee with a rose and a ring. The women around them gasp in admiration. Brian's expression darkened. “Nick is pushing his luck if he thinks he can just come here and start giving my wife presents”, he thought bitterly.Nick fed off t
NECKLACENick's mood had improved again. He was confident that his gift was of a higher caliber than that of Brian and if people saw it they would encourage Samantha to accept his gift and she would become his. He offered to follow them home, not fighting with Brian for dibs on who she would ride with.When Dorothy saw Brian's car, she scolded him again and even blurted out the matter of Brian having to borrow a car once more.Nick pretended to stand up for Brian and said. “Mrs Madison, you should understand that Brian's only doing this for fame”. “He borrowed a car so that he doesn't have to spend money.I'm sure it's a perfectly nice car “no, I'll never ride in it”, Brenda Complained as she also came for a visit. “Compared to your fine car, it's nothing”.When they went inside the house, Nick was surprised to find that Thomas was also there. Thomas and Nick embraced each other as if they were brothers by blood.Samantha felt a headache coming on.When she was young, Nick had often b
CORNERShe knew Brian was being targeted because he had stood up for her, so she felt a little bad.Nick acted as if he didn't hear her.He stared at Brian with a playful look and said “I do recall you saying that you had bought a necklace that was even more beautiful than the Peacock bloom.I would love to take a look at it”.“As if Brian could ever afford any kind of fine necklace”, Brenda said contemptuously. “He barely earns enough in a month to feed himself”.“Did you buy it off? Some dealer on the Street?” Thomas asked, laughing mockingly.Gary, Who has been sitting on the couch and reading the newspaper while everyone else talked? Grunted.Samantha, who had spoken up for Brian a moment before, wanted to find a hole and hide in it.The necklace Brian had bought her was pretty. It was a fake and had only been a simple gift.“Frankly speaking, it was something that others wouldn't want. The necklaces could never be compared.Brian, I really shouldn't have accepted the necklace you gav
DISAPPOINTED Then Laura told them everything that had happened at the store that day, leaving out the fact that she had colluded with Brian.Otherwise, Samantha would definitely be angry if she found out what had happened to her.“I encourage Brian to take me to the top floor of the store, I haven't been there yet and wanted to see it”.“The people on the top floor are different and more aggressive, Well, one of the men up there bullied me a bit, and Brian came to my defense. The owner of the store was embarrassed and he apologized and thanked Brian by giving him the necklace”.She had been careful with her words. She hadn't wanted to give away too many details, and she was afraid that she would expose her actions and cause Brian more trouble.Ultimately, she told them it was a knockoff and not all that valuable. The owner of the store could confirm that.After she had stopped talking, they all believed her. Brenda decided to scold her daughter on the phone.“You are too bold. What

THE TRAP“Mom!” Shouted Samantha. She was happy that Nick had left, but not when she realized her mother felt completely different.“Samantha, he deserved it”, said Thomas. “Your husband was a fool for giving you this cheap necklace, I'm gonna put it in the trash for you to save you the effort of doing it yourself”.He reached out his hand to take it, but she quickly pulled it to her chest as if it was a valuable treasure.“Never”, she replied, running her hand nervously through her hair.“It's a waste to throw it away. I'll find a pawn shop and exchange it for money”.“Make sure you get a reasonable price for it”, he said silently.He didn't dare touch the necklace again. He knew his sister's fiery temperament too well.Samantha put the necklace back down on the table and examined it closely.She knew she should take her brother's advice and just throw it away, but something about it intrigued her.She wasn't sure if it was because it was the first necklace Brian had bought her or beca
PURCHASE “Of course”, added Nick. “And also promote your company with several of my larger clients, many of whom you may have heard of”.Jeffery was no longer listening. “This man is dancing with death”, he thought. “Excuse me?” Interrupted Jeffery before Nick could continue with his smooth advertising offering.“Would you mind if I just went and made a call?”He picked up his cell phone and pointed at it.“Of course,” answered nick. “Go ahead”.Puzzled, he watched Jeffery leave the room.It seems strange to him that a man who ran his own company would leave the room in the middle of a meeting to make a call.And felt as if he was running off to tell a higher authority about what was going on and to ask for permission to continue.This man is too soft, Nick thought. “He’s Just like Brian,But at least he's running his own company, unlike Brian, who had to marry in order to get anywhere in life.Not that he cared. His main plan was to get a hold of the most powerful gangs in San Clement
