Chapter 22
The surroundings quieted down instantly.
Esme and Presley looked at the couple in shock. Then, they stared at each other in disbelief.
“Are… are you Mr. Valentine?”
Esme mustered up her courage and asked.
Beau smiled and placed his hand on Eliza’s shoulder, “Yes, that’s me.”
Presley was so shocked she couldn’t even speak!
“How is this possible?” she thought.
The whole reason Presley forced Eliza to get married in Esme’s stead was that Mr. Valentine was a cruel and ugly monster!
Rumors had it that the fire had wrecked him, both inside and out.
Now, the monster was standing before them, but he was nothing as the rumors described. Beau had incredibly handsome looks which radiated his intimidating aura.
“Honey, let me introduce you to my family.”
Eliza wrapped her arm around Beau and smiled proudly. “This person here is my stepmother, Presley Stafford. The other one is my stepsister, Esme Lawson.”
Beau raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Oh, my apologies. I didn’t know they are your family.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t make things difficult for you.” He shifted his gaze to the ring on Esme’s finger. “However, you still have to return that ring to me. It’s a wedding gift I prepared for my wife.”
Esme gritted her teeth and clenched her fists in anger.
That ring should have belonged to her!
She should’ve been the one married to Beau.
“Eliza, that b*tch! How dare she snatch my man away!” Esme thought. 2
“Since we‘re a family, we shouldn’t be that hard on each other right?”
Presley walked towards Beau and laughed sheepishly, “Mr. Valentine, you’re a rich man. I’m sure a ten karat ring means nothing to you.”
