Chapter 55
Faith attempted to remove the jewelry she was wearing. She insisted, “No. You need to return the jewelry set and give that money back to Rivas Corporation. I don’t want you to owe them a favor. What if they hang this over your head and force you to act against your will?
All she cared about was Kyle. She couldn’t care less about the jewelry. Taking money from Rivas Corporation meant selli treedom, she didn’t want him to be indebted to anyone just to please her.
“Fay, don’t be swayed by people’s opinions. Just trust yourself. I bought this jewelry set for you with my own money, not Corporation
He immediately chuckled and stopped her. “You’ve got quite an imagination. I can get a refund if you don’t like the jewelry, and I’ll buy something like. I’m not short of money. But if you’re making me retum it because of the price, well, you don’t have to

Faith cut him off by coyly patting his hand. “Alright, I got it. I’ll accept the gift, and I believe you,”
Clearly, Faith thought Kyle had only said that to assure her. Smiling, he caressed her head dotingly. “That’s my Fay.”
Belle and Chloe’s faces tell when they watched Faith and Kyle flirt. Enzo, too, saw it. But he hid his anger and hung his head as he seethed.
In truth, Enzo had wanted to make Faith his woman the moment he set sight on her. He’d never wanted a woman so badly in his life.
Alas, Faith was in love with another man–a benefactor of Rivas Corporation, no least.
Ento, given his status, could win any woman he wanted, except for Faith. He couldn’t get over it.
Belle gritted her teeth furiously. “I’ll make that shameless couple regret ever showing up to this event.

“Belle, calm down. Faith will regret her choice of man when we expose the truth behind Kyle. By that time, she will tralize you’re the cle the fool.”

Chloe soothed her. She said to Chloe, “Look for that Luca, and get to the bottom of things, or it’ll be difficult for us to make a move.” Upon receiving the instructions, Chiloe walked out of the venue and asked around. She finally found Luca, legs crossed, playing a mobile game in the main hall.
She walked past him and feigned surprise. “Hey, isn’t this Mr. Bruno? It’s been a while.” She posed in a flirtatious way: Her smile made Luca swoon. Eyes lit up with interest, Lura gasped, “Aren’t you Chloe? Yes, it’s been a while. I was thinking: Who’s that hot girl? I swear I could sell your fragrance when you walked past
She waved at him demurely.
“Mr. Bruno, you’re a sweet talker. There are plenty of hot girls today. I’m nothing compared to them.“5 Her actions charmed Luca further. He added, “I’m not lying! The other girls were decked out in jewelry and went overboard with the makeup, but Chloe, you s with a simple beauty. You were born with it!”
His words inade Cidor feel good about herself. She believed that meant what he said and that she was the prettiest among all the females that day. “Godhi, Mr. Bruno, you flatter me.
