“Can’t you go any faster? I’ll be screwed if I’m late,” said Lily impatiently at the sight of Darryl’s slow-moving vehicle.

As the words left her mouth, Lily began to regret them. Darryl through his sheer will pushed his busted up bike through its limits!

The speed of the bike was too much for Lily, and she could not help but hold on tight to Darryl’s waist.

The sudden hug caused Darryl’s body to quiver all over. After three years of marriage, this was the first time they had physical contact with each other. A surge of excitement welled up from within him from Lily’s pressure on his back, prompting him to accelerate his bike even faster.

Eventually, the couple arrived at the office building’s main entrance, and Lily breathed a sigh of relief upon their arrival. As she was about to get off the bike, came the thunderous roar of an engine. An Audi Q5 pulled up and parked itself beside the bike, and a man stepped out of the car.

Ashton Adagio locked his car and adjusted his suit. He walked toward Lily and pointed at Darryl. “Dear Lily, who is this man?”

“He’s Darryl,” replied Lily gently as she got off the bike.

The wedding that took place between Darryl and Lily got the entire Donghai City shaken up. There was not a single soul in Donghai City that was not aware that the gentle and beautiful Lily Lyndon had wed a piece of trash.

“Oh, so he’s that piece of trash,” said Ashton with a cold snort. He took off his jacket and handed it to Lily. “Poor Lily, it must have been cold on the way here, put this on. I’ve even gotten a gift for you.”

Ashton went back to his car and got out a rather fancy-looking box.

The box contained a seemingly magnificent pair of high-heeled shoes made out of crystal. Whoever has it on would surely emanate a sense of elegance and class.

Several years ago, the Darby clan was also into the fashion business and thus Darryl got to know numerous renowned designers. If his memory served him right, this pair of heels was designed by a British designer, Minah, who named them ‘The Worship of Crystal’. Only 99 pairs were made that year and all of them were bought upon release. They were mostly bought by prominent families, even if one were to have the money now, it would be impossible to have access to a pair.

The ones in Ashton’s hands seemed like the real deal, but the production quality had some minor rough edges, it was obviously a replica.

“Lily, I know that you’ve always liked this pair of heels, but woe is me. I’ve looked high and low but could not find the real thing.” Ashton said as he handed over the heels to Lily. “Therefore I spent three hundred thousand to have this replica made. Wear them for now, and give me a month to buy you the real ones.”

“There’s no need,” said Lily lightly while accepting the pair of heels. “There’s no way you can find the real ones for sale. Even if you did, the price would be outrageously high. A pair was sold for 30 million in an auction just last year. So, there’s no need to waste any more of your time. I think this pair of replicas is already pretty nice.”

“Ah…” gulped Ashton. Indeed with his total net worth of roughly 30 million, there was no way he could use it all for a pair of heels. All he could do then was let out an awkward laugh.

It was at this moment that Darryl barged over, snatched the pair of heels, and threw them onto the ground!
