Chapter 7
I helpfully added: “Princess Sekar, since you love them all, why not have Henry buy them for you?”
I’d bet she had no idea how expensive these jewels were–worth tens of millions.]]
Henry could never afford them.[]
Hearing my words, Sekar immediately spoke up: “Darling, I love all of these! They’re so different from our Indonesian jewelry. I want to take them home for my sisters–they’ll be thrilled! This way, you’ll win their approval.“[]
Henry’s face darkened. He pulled Sekar aside and whispered: “Baby, doesn’t your palace already have plenty of jewelry? What if we buy them and your sisters don’t like them? Wouldn’t that be wasteful?”
He quickly picked up the smallest ring.
“How about just this one? It really suits you.”
snorted and deliberately said loudly:
“Julian, if Princess Sekar doesn’t want them, let’s buy them all ourselves. We can enjoy them occasionally.”
The moment I finished speaking, Sekar flew into an embarrassed rage and threw away the ring Henry had selected.
ހ
“Henry, are you being stingy? You and your brother are both Carter men–look how generous he is, then look at your attitude.“]
“If you won’t spend money on me, maybe I need to reconsider this relationship. In Indonesia, we can’t tolerate fake love.”
Julian nodded in agreement and looked at Henry.
“Henry, since you and the princess already have an intimate relationship, you should really show some respect.”
He waved at the jewelers.[]
“Let Henry choose first. I’ll take everything that’s left.“[]
Then he gently took my hand and led me out.]

Henry stood frozen, staring at the pile of jewelry while Sekar excitedly began stuffing items
into her handbag.
He gritted his teeth.
“Sekar, we really don’t need to buy so much. These are just stones.”
Sekar frowned.
“Why should Vivian appear noble
daughter?”
If
of
Vivian can have them, so can I. I’m a royal princess–am I not better than a businessman’s
“Henry, are you just playing with me? That’s why you won’t spend
“Do you still like Vivian? Go ahead, chase her back and never come near me again.“]
Henry lost his patience.]
“Sekar, when did I ever say I liked Vivian? What’s wrong with you today? You used to be so calm and carefree.“[]
“You’re throwing a tantrum over a few necklaces? Questioning my feelings? You’re really disappointing me.”

Sekar exploded with rage and grabbed a necklace, hurling it at Henry’s face.
The sharp gemstones cut Henry’s face, leaving bloody scratches.
Sekar froze, looking from the jewelry to Henry, a mix of fear and defiance in her eyes.[]
You bastard! You’re trash as a boyfriend. Forget it–I’m not buying anything. Don’t ever come looking for me again. Even if you bought me ten necklaces, I’d never forgive you!“]]
She stomped out on her heels in a fury.[]
The next day, the entire elite social circle knew:[]
Henry Carter couldn’t afford jewelry and got his face slashed with diamonds by his furious girlfriend.[]
Meanwhile, I–Henry’s former fiancée–had broken our engagement and was now marrying the older Carter heir, Julian.[]
