The next morning, Kris Cooper left early for the airport.
When Vera Wave woke up, he was nowhere to be seen, and there was a note he left on the bedside table.
"Andre and Kenton’s phone numbers are already stored in your phone. Call anyti if you need anything. If I don’t answer, I’m either in a eting or on a plane. This is the money you won, keep it."
On the note, there was the ring and a wad of cash.
Vera reached out for the ring, held it up in the air to look at it, then brought it back to examine closely.
The ring was a silver band with a pink diamond in the center that shimred with a rainbow of colors, and a few small, delicate diamonds forming a crown shape.
She had seen this ring on his neck before.
Without a doubt, he had bought it before.
So... can she wear it?
Vera extended her left hand, gently slipped it over her middle finger, found it a bit tight, so she tried the ring finger.
This ti, it was neither too big nor too small, just right.
Raising her left hand, admiring the beautiful diamond ring on her finger, she recalled Kris Cooper kneeling in front of her last night, and Vera couldn’t help but smile slightly.
Then, she quickly took off the ring and, after so thought, realized there was no good place to put it.
A mont of inspiration hit, and she took off her necklace, mimicking Kris Cooper’s way, hanging the ring around her neck.
Carefully tucking the ring inside her clothes, pressing it gently through the fabric.
She cheerfully humd a tune as she jumped out of bed, but just as she stretched her leg, a certain area gave a slight, pulling pain.
She slowly withdrew her leg, carefully standing on the floor, not forgetting to curse softly.
"Kris Cooper... you big jerk, don’t you dare think you can get into my bed again!"

After a day off, Aunt Feng had already returned to the Mansion.
She had prepared breakfast for Vera. After eating, Vera rushed to the subway to get to the office.
Everyone made so brief preparations and imdiately rushed to the Hepingli Community to shoot outside scenes.
To achieve the best results, Vera was busy back and forth, helping with the reflector at one mont and checking the fild shots at another... back and forth, running until her legs felt worn out.
Unknowingly, it was already noon. The crew brought lunch boxes, and everyone sat by the roadside, eating and discussing the afternoon shoot, when Vera’s phone rang.
The screen displayed the na "Director Song," and upon seeing these two words, Vera slapped her forehead.
She had completely forgotten about filming after what happened with Nathan Leafcastle yesterday.
Walking a bit further away, she finally answered the call.
"Director Song, I’m so sorry. I was so busy yesterday that I forgot to return your call."
"Don’t worry, don’t worry, are you still planning to shoot?" Director Song’s voice was very polite.
"I just have one question," Vera hesitated slightly, "Can I use a body double for the intimate scenes? I’m okay with taking a bit less pay."
"Intimate scenes?" Director Song was montarily taken aback, then he laughed, "No need to worry, the script has just been revised, and your role has no intimate scenes anymore."
"Really?" Vera felt a joy in her heart, "Then it’s no problem at all."
First, because she didn’t want to act them, and second, because she feared Kris Cooper wouldn’t be happy. With no intimate scenes, she was naturally much relieved.
"In that case, please co by to sign the contract when you have ti, and we’ll arrange the schedule."
