"NO! Don't make Marc get you a new ring for you. He is my boss!" Elise's voice echoed.
"B-but... you said you will only accept my proposal if I have the ring..." Loriel said. "I need the ring. Marc wouldn't mind."
Marc Sanderman realized that his uncle was panicking so much to ask for the ring. He could hear the entire conversation happening over the phone. They forgot to hang up the phone, didn't they?
The man looked at the phone in his right hand and his brows furrowed. What should he do? Should he hang up and wait for Loriel to call him again if he still needed the ring…?
Or… he could listen to their conversation to understand what was going on?
Loriel never told Marc anything about his life and who Elise really was. Marc was dying to know. This would be a good opportunity to get a glimpse into the secrets that his grand-uncle was hiding.
For a few moments, Marc was conflicted. Ughhh… tough choice.
