Chapter 4 I Can Give You a Box Full

• "Anya, if you like it, I can give you a box full of rings ten times bigger than this one!"
• A sudden, arrogant voice interrupted the gathering.
• Everyone was shocked at the declaration.
• Ten times bigger?
• A whole box?
• Who had the nerve to boast so outrageously?
• "Oh!"
• All eyes shifted to the direction of the voice.
• They saw a man who, though not particularly tall, had an imposing presence. He was striding confidently into the room.
• For a moment, the room fell silent.
• One second.
• Two seconds.
• Three seconds ...
• ...
• The sound of mocking laughter broke the spell after three full seconds.
• "I was wondering who would make such a bold claim. It turns out it's just a lowly delivery guy!"
• "He's practically a king in his imagination; what does he have to fear? Hahaha ... "
• Inside the private room, the two played off each other, and everyone burst into laughter.
• Laughter instantly replaced the previously tense atmosphere.
• Shana barely contained her laughter. She gestured with her lips toward Anya and said, mockingly, "Hey Anya, look who just walked in."
• Hearing these words and seeing Damon in his delivery uniform, Anya felt her face burn with embarrassment.
• She felt utterly disgraced.
• "Ms. Anson, he's offering to buy you a box of diamond rings. How romantic and manly! Hahaha!"
• Shana laughed so hard she nearly fell over; her movements were exaggerated.
• Anya's expression darkened further. The look in her eyes also turned cold.
• "You just spout off without thinking. Do you know how much that diamond ring in Mr. Long's hand is worth?" A blonde young man sneered, a toothpick dangling from his mouth as he eyed Damon sideways.
• "Let me tell you this! Even if you deliver takeout for a lifetime, you wouldn't afford a fraction of it!
• "A whole box? You think you are capable of that?"
• Everyone in the room shook their heads and laughed scornfully at Damon.
• Word had long since spread in their circle: Anya's husband was a live-in son-in-law who had lived off the Ansons' money for two years. The Ansons' lack of support forced him into becoming a deliveryman.
• He was a complete and utter failure!
• Damon's earlier display of bravado had now become a joke to everyone.
• A diamond ring?
• Haha!
• He couldn't even afford a single dust particle!
• "How did you know I was here?"
• Anya questioned coldly, her brows furrowed.
• Damon replied, "As long as I want to, I can find you no matter where you are."
• "You're stalking me?"
• Anya immediately caught on, her look of disdain growing more intense and her loathing for Damon deepening.
• In the three years they had been together, Damon had grown accustomed to her attitude.
• He had endured countless scornful looks and harsh words, again and again.
• But today, that was about to change.
• He had come here for a reason—to reveal the truth.
• The three-year period was over, and he no longer needed to endure this humiliating life.
• No one would look down on him any longer.
• Damon stepped forward to embrace Anya, but she pushed him away forcefully.
• He smiled wryly but remained patient. Damon said, "I'm here to tell you that I can solve all your problems. You don't have to suffer anymore."
• The crowd erupted into laughter at his words again.
• They looked like they had heard the funniest joke of their lives.
• Is a live-in son-in-law actually claiming he could turn things around?
• He was delusional!
• "Help me?"
• Anya scoffed coldly. She glared at Damon and chided, "Damon! Can you be grounded? Poverty isn't your fault, but pretending to be something you're not is disgusting!
• "Your empty promises and grandiose lies won't make me see you any differently. They just show how useless you are!
• "If it weren't for marrying you, my life would be ten, a hundred times better!"
• Tears welled up in Anya's eyes as she spoke. She grew more frustrated, regretting ever listening to her grandfather and marrying this worthless man.
• Her grandfather, Vergil Anson, had said Damon would one day rise to great heights, and she would become the most prestigious woman in the world.
• Three years had passed, and Damon had brought nothing but endless humiliation.
• "Haha! A box of diamond rings?"
• Morris, who had been watching from the sidelines, sipped his wine and chuckled. He mocked, "You must be one of those rich kids experiencing life on the streets, right?"
• Damon shook his head lightly.
• "Or perhaps a long-lost heir, finally found by your wealthy family?" Morris teased.
• Again, Damon shook his head.
• "Hahaha ... "
• Morris laughed again and asked, "If you're neither, then why are you pretending to be a big shot?
• "Go change into some decent clothes, watch some TV, and learn how real rich kids act before you try to bluff your way through.
• "Spouting off like that only makes you a laughingstock!"
• Morris's words cut deep.
• Even though his target was Damon, Anya couldn't stay calm.
• She was so humiliated that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into!
• This was the ultimate humiliation.
• And it was all because of this worthless man!
• But—
• No one there would understand that Damon, dressed in cheap clothes, could genuinely afford a box of diamond rings.
• To be exact, Damon was rich enough to buy almost everything in the world.
