Chapter 288 Just like that, the three of us worked late into the night every day.

This was the first tour family was so united and harmonious. It was also the first tall of us were working together. With the three of us helping each other out, we looked like a happy and ordinary family.

A month later, Mom gave31 dollars to buy my favorite jewelry.

I could have bought my favorite necklace with that money, but I used it to buy three custom-made rings of the sstyle with our names engraved on the back.

I called them 'family tokens' and joked that if we ever got separated in the future, I would use these to identify my relatives.

These were the happiest moments of my life, so they meant a lot to me.

Though sadly, I was no longer able to find the ring again afterward and even Mom had no idea where it went. We searched for so long yet still could not find it.

After I lost the ring, I blamed myself for a very long time. It was a scar on my heart. I kept thinking that I did not deserve beautiful and expensive things, which was the reason why I did not wear any jewelry now.

After so many years since the incident, the regret I once had was finally resolved.

If my ring was here, would the two other rings be here too? At the thought of this, I immediately asked Theo," Where's the gift box you just brought back?" Theo looked a little sullen when he sawlike that and said in a deep voice, "In the garbage can outside." I quickly stood up and rushed out the door before I could even properly put on my shoes.

In the garbage can in the garden, the gift box was torn to shreds and was simply lying there.

I searched for a very long time, and as expected, the ring with Tyler's non it was lying in the corner of the box. As though I saw hope, I bent down and poked my entire head into the dirty and smelly garbage can without a single care. I carefully started searching.

Theo pulledout, his voice cold and stern. "Are his gifts that precious?" "No, I'll tell you about it later. Letfind it first." I broke free from his grip after saying that, disregarding the discomfort in my belly. I continued to lean against the garbage can to search through the contents.

"That's enough, Wanda Lane!" He raised his voice. I could tell that he was on the verge of losing it.

I stood up and looked at him, saying rather helplessly, "Theo, I really have important things to do right now and can't explain to you. Why don't you go inside first?" He grabbed my hand and the garbage can. "You don't have tto talk tobut have the tto look for worthless trash? Do you like Tyler's gift that much? Wanda Lane, do you even know your status right now?!" His voice was terrifyingly cold due to anger. His deep and profound gaze was spurting out flames, while his grip tightened unknowingly.

I was in pain and yelped. "Let go of me, Theo. You're hurting me." He hesitated and loosened his grip. "I'm glad you know it hurts." His tone was much softer now.

I pushed him away in anger. "Sthings can't be measured with m money, Theo. This may look like a useless piece of trash to you but it carries significant meaning for me." After saying those words, I ignored him and crouched down to keep looking.

As expected, Mom's ring was there too. It must have dropped and fallen to the bottom of the garbage can when Theo was ripping the box apart.

When I looked at the ring, I could vaguely see Mom's smiling face and cried tears of joy.

When I returned to the room, Theo's countenance grew even colder and sterner than before. He sat on the couch, pulling a long face without saying a word. On the other hand, I was in a good mood because I had found the rings. After cleaning them up, I walked up to him and said," Don't be angry anymore. These carry a great significance to me. They might look-"

Before I could finish, he pulled out his phone in anger. His voice was so cold it carried no trace of warmth." Keith, go to our jewelry store and bring all the gold and silver jewelry to the villa for me. That includes the new arrivals as well. No, in addition to our stores, go to other jewelry stores to buy all the different styles too." X
