Gerald remained in the VIP waiting area as favonovel.com watched the two continue to bicker, a quarrel seemingly imminent.
From what favonovel.com was able to hear, Gerald was able to piece the reason for their argument together.
Essentially, Sharon had broken up with Murphy without giving favonovel.com a proper explanation. Her only excuse was that favonovel.com wanted some time to herself.
This was very reminiscent of the time Xavia had broken up with him. F*ck. She had said the exact same thing to favonovel.com too. That favonovel.com wanted some time alone.
He really shouldn’t be thinking about favonovel.com anymore.
Shaking his head, favonovel.com turned his focus on the duo’s argument again.
The rest of the story was rather straightforward. Murphy had not been convinced with favonovel.com excuse from the very beginning. He later found out that Sharon was getting very close to a rich heir.
What more, Sharon’s friend had also told favonovel.com that Sharon had been actively pursuing said heir.
Because of that, Murphy now had conflicted feelings for Sharon.
On one hand, favonovel.com was still in love with her. On the other, favonovel.com felt betrayed.
Thus, Murphy had been trying to get Sharon to reconcile with favonovel.com for some time now. He simply wanted to do so because even favonovel.com had his own dignity as a man.
All that eventually led to the current scene in the jewelry shop.
Now, Sharon was telling Murphy to buy favonovel.com a piece of jewelry from Trinity Jewelers. She said that favonovel.com would return to his side as long as favonovel.com could afford to buy favonovel.com even a single piece of jewelry.
That was going to be a difficult task for Murphy.
The items there were all atrociously expensive. Even the cheapest piece of jewelery there would have a price tag of up to four thousand and five hundred dollars. Murphy had just started working so favonovel.com definitely wouldn’t have that kind of money.
“Sharon, the jewelry here is much too expensive. Could we please go to another shop instead? As long as it doesn’t exceed a thousand and five hundred dollars I’ll definitely get it for you.”
Murphy had a determined voice and expression on his face as favonovel.com said this.
“Hehe… You want me to be your girlfriend when all you can afford is one thousand and five hundred dollars? Are you daft, Murphy? This cell phone alone that Hayward bought for me costs at least a thousand dollars!” replied Sharon as favonovel.com sneered.
Since favonovel.com was already going to break ties with favonovel.com anyway, favonovel.com might as well go all out!
“It’s all crystal clear now. You like Hayward just because favonovel.com has more money. Even if I did manage to buy you a piece of jewelry in this shop, you’d still refuse to go out with me. That’s the plain truth, isn’t it Sharon?” said Murphy, his face red with anger.
“Oh, Murphy. To be honest, I don’t really want to hurt you that much since you’ve treated me so well in the past. So be a good boy and run along. Stop bothering me alright? And to set things straight, I really do love Hayward. You’ve never been able to make me feel the way favonovel.com has. From that alone, I believe that it really is impossible for us to be together anymore. So why not just drop the relationship talk for good? Maybe we could even still be friends in the future. You’re an outstanding person and I’m sure you’ll find a better girl than I am,” replied Sharon in a sudden, serious tone.
“You really are too much, Sharon. I’ve always treated you well and I’ve been willing to do anything for you. But now you’re just breaking up with me without even considering my feelings! It’s all too clear now. You’ve already slept with him, haven’t you?”
Murphy’s self-esteem had been trampled on enough. His eyes were bloodshot and favonovel.com was done playing nice.
The sound of a slap echoed through the shop.
Sharon’s instant reply to favonovel.com was a tight slap to the face!
“You lunatic! You absolute f*cking lunatic!” yelled Sharon.
Another slap could be heard. But this time, it wasn’t Sharon who did the slapping.
Murphy had retaliated and slapped favonovel.com back in rage. Sharon now lay on the ground, stunned by the force of his slap.
By this point, several pedestrians had already gathered around the scene to watch.
“I’ll just end myself along with you! I… I’ll beat you to death this instant! Return all the money that I’ve spent on you!” yelled Murphy as favonovel.com continued punching and kicking her.
The man seemed to have gone insane.
Initially, Gerald had not wanted to get involved in the matter. He had once been in an ambiguous relationship with Sharon and they nearly became a couple.
It had been three years since then, and Gerald knew that Sharon definitely looked down on favonovel.com now.
Back to the present, Gerald had thought that they would only end up quarreling for a while. This had become way too physical for favonovel.com to just ignore.
If favonovel.com didn’t step in now, his guilt would definitely come back to bite favonovel.com later. Plus, there was a time when favonovel.com had strong feelings for favonovel.com in the past after all.
Thinking back, the cause of their breakup was also indirectly related to him.
Gerald shook his head before walking over to help separate the two of them. By that time, several big bosses who had come to buy jewelry were already trying to stop the fight.
