Chapter 245 Do You Like It
Ethan sipped his tea and didn''t utter a single word. He knew full well what was going through Kent''s
mind. Kent had been ying the field, and he was certain that he wouldn''t give up on J so
easily.
However, inherently, Keny wasn''t a bad person. Besides, J didn''t like him in any event, so
Ethan wasn''t worried in the least bit. Since Kent had saved J once before, Ethan decided it best
not to do anything about him at this juncture.
The expression on Ethan''s face made Kent''s hair stand on end. For the life of him, he couldn''t even
begin to fathom what Ethan was thinking.
Just then, the waiter served the crab dish. Ethan picked up a crab leg.
"Have a taste of this," Ethan said, cing the crab leg into J''s te while ncing at Kent with
an air of indifference. "Please help yourself, Mr. Perkins."
With a fake, forced smile, Kent nodded.
He didn''t enjoy the meal at all. To be honest, he had even purchased a box of condoms before he
hade here tonight. Now, however, it was clear that it wouldn''t be put to its intended use tonight.
The three of them parted ways after dinner.
J and Ethan were just about to go home together. The Japanese restaurant was located in
a high-end shopping mall which sold a range of luxury, designer items.
When they passed by a jewelry store, the ss disy of the season''s new arrivals in the window
caught her eye. There were fiery red rubies on disy. The dazzling rubies were expertly imbedded
in white gold. It was simply breathtaking. There was a sense of wildness in the design and color
choices.
J was a designer herself, so naturally she was drawn to the disy like a bee to have a closer
look. She wondered whether she could trante this design for an application to a clothes line.
Clothing would be stunning with this kind of design.
When Ethan noticed J had stopped, he peered in the direction of her gaze. The ruby ne
in the window was work of art and eye -catching.
"Do you like it?" he asked, walking up to join her beside the window.
The soft, warm light fell on J''s face, making her smile look even more beautiful than usual. Her
eyes were sparkling with admiration. It was quite apparent that she was impressed. She said, "Don''t
you think it''s very beautiful? This designer really is nothing short of a genius."
However, J was just appreciating the designer and this outstanding work. She didn''t want the
jewelry as much as she appreciated its design. Besides, she couldn''t afford it anyway.
It was too luxurious for her. Only the exceptionally wealthy could buy it if they took a liking to it.
It urred to Ethan that Garrett often gave jewelry as gifts to women, and reasoned that women
were probably quite attracted to sparkly, shiny things. On that basis, he came to the conclusion that
J must want it. She didn''t admit it because she probably thought that it was way out of their
affordability range.
Ethan kept his poker face on and began to devise a n to buy the ne for her without her
suspecting him.
J didn''t have the foggiest idea about what was going through his mind. She took out her phone
and hesitated in taking pictures of the ne. After all, most of the stores here didn''t allow others
to take photos of their exclusive products.

Just then, a condescending voice was hearding just inside the store. "Miss Lind, you have
been standing there for a long time. Do you need me to ask for the manager''s permission for you to
take photos?"
