The ring was of the same style, and even its size was a perfect match.

As soon as Nanako saw the ring, she burst with unexplainable joy, as if it was Charlie who had personally given her the ring. 5

Seeing Nanako's delight, Kawana Kurenai asked in bewilderment, "Miss, why would you be so interested in a brand like Tiffany? It is a very ordinary brand, and the ring is rather cheap. Their diamonds are like grains of sand..." 4

Kurenai was right.

A diamond ring worth one million dollars or less was, frankly speaking, for the averagely wealthy family. 2

The real tycoons didn't even bother wearing such rings.

Ultra-wealthy tycoons of the East and West owned diamonds with the highest purity, ones that were precisely cut, and so clear, they could easily fetch ten million apiece.

Those who were really wealthy would buy raw, precious diamonds and customize them into rings, the reason why it wasn't rare that such rings were worth more than ten million. 5 The rich Oskians had a wide preference when it came

to their jewelry. Besides diamonds, they fancied all kinds of gemstones, especially jade. 1

The price of a real high quality imperial green jadeite was tremendously high, so it was a common sight to have a jade bracelet with over ten or even a hundred million dollars. 6

To them, such jewelry could express the socially perceived value and garnered a lot of room for appreciation.

Ito family itself was one of the wealthiest families in Japan. As the family patriarch's sole daughter, Nanako's acceptance for a ring from such a common brand was beyond what Kurenai could percieve. 5 Holding the ring dearly, Nanako shyly said, "Kawana, some things cannot be measured by value. To you, this ring might be worth nothing. But for me, it is priceless." 2

With that, she hastily put the ring on her ring finger and looked at it, grinning from ear to ear. 5

Kurenai exclaimed, "Miss, the ring finger is especially for a wedding ring. You can't wear a ring on that finger. Otherwise, people might think you are married when they see you wearing that!" 6

When Nanako heard it, she suddenly realized that it was inappropriate for her to wear a ring on her ring finger as a single woman as it would trigger misunderstandings. But it didn't rescind her adoration for the ring. She quickly took the ring off, carefully put it back into the box, and stuck out her tongue at Kurenai cheekily. "It's okay. I'm just trying it out. I won't wear it when I'm out."

Kurenai nodded and asked, "Miss, where are we going now?"

Nanako replied, "To the hospital. I want to keep my father company." 3

"Okay!"

At the same time, Charlie had successfully passed through the security checkpoint. He walked into the VIP lounge with his passport and boarding pass in hand.

An hour was left before the plane took off and half an hour before boarding. 1

The VIP lounge was sparsely inhabited, so Charlie leisurely found a seat and sat down.

As soon as he sat down, a beautiful waitress came forward and asked, "Good day, sir, would you like something to drink, please?" 4

For some reason, Charlie's mind and heart were still filled with Nanako's image. Hastily, he rejected with a wave of his hand. "No, thanks." 1

The waitress nodded and politely said, "If you need anything, please feel free to call me." 2 "Okay." 3

Charlie was about to take out his phone to contact Isaac when he heard a woman speaking into the phone in a low voice, through his sharp sense of hearing. 4

"In order to avoid unnecessary attention, inform the crew to first fly to Raventon. We'll spend a night there before returning to Eastcliff tomorrow!"
