"That’s enough. I’ll take responsibility. You’ve done your shift. Go back and rest now," the supervisor said firmly.
With a pale face, Sasha softly murmured, "Thank you.”
Then she slowly made her way back to the dormitory.
As Sasha passed by the scenic lake, she was stopped by Quinn.
"Yesterday, Juno gave me a diamond ring. You must have seen it. Now, look at the ring he gave you—it’s pathetic!"
Sasha found it hard to understand Quinn’s spiteful tone. In just a few days, she had fully realized that she meant nothing to Juno.
Why did Quinn have to treat her like a thorn in her side despite knowing she was just a stand-in?
"I’ll step back. I won’t bother you anymore," Sasha said quietly.
But Quinn snorted coldly. "Then throw that ring away. Throw it into the lake. You don’t deserve to wear something Juno gave you."
Sasha lowered her head and took off the ring. Once something she treasured dearly, never wanting to part with it, she now tossed it into the lake without hesitation.
She thought this would finally put Quinn’s mind at ease, but to her surprise, Quinn, with a sobbing tone, cried out.
"Why did you throw away my diamond ring?"
Quinn rushed into Juno’s arms, crying uncontrollably.
