NovelEnglishChapter 862 Raymond was surrounded by a cluster of top execs as he made his rounds that day. The mall was the city's prspot for luxury shopping, an absolute must-visit for anyone jetting in to snag shigh-end goods. The Lynch family's diamond business took up the entire ground floor lobby, while the other big-nbrands had to settle for a few display counters. Spanning multiple floors, the mall was a treasure trove of international luxury items. Raymond spotted Max and gave a slight nod. "Didn't expect to see you here, Mr. Dorsey." It was clearly Max's presence that made Raymond stop for a quick greeting. A sharp glint flashed in Max's eyes, and with a slight smile, he slipped the ring onto Brielle's finger under Raymond's watchful gaze. Brielle's fingers were long and delicate, a perfect fit for the ring. But with Raymond standing right behind her, her mind went blank.
In Raymond's presence, Max took on a respectful demeanor. "Mr. Lynch, overseeing things personally today? No wonder Infinity Brilliance has reached such heights." Raymond exuded an air of mature confidence. He nodded slightly, not looking to engage in much conversation, as their acquaintance was rather shallow. They only knew of each other, thanks to Max's impressive stint on Wall Street a few years back. Was Max picking out a ring with his girlfriend? Raymond's gaze fell on the girl in front of him; facing away, he could only see her glossy dark hair. Max pulled Brielle close and turned her around. "This is Mr. Lynch from Infinity Brilliance, Brielle. Say hello." His tone was even, as if he was simply introducing them. The moment Raymond saw Brielle's face, a gentle smile appeared. "We've met at a gala before." Her face had caught his eye back then, reminding him of someone named Annie. Even in a crowd, his gaze had lingered on her for a few memorable seconds. Though she resembled Annie, Brielle's beauty felt more natural. Brielle extended her hand, her composure restored. "Mr. Lynch, nice to meet you." Raymond glanced between Max and Brielle, thinking they made a striking couple. "Ms. Brielle and Mr. Dorsey make quite the pair." As soon as he finished speaking, Max chuckled, visibly pleased. "Your words are reassuring, Mr. Lynch." Raymond's brow furrowed slightly, his aura intensifying. He wasn't sure what Max meant. But with years in the business world, he sensed there was more to that statement. His entourage signaled it was tto move on, but Raymond stood firm, looking at Max before adding "If both sets of parents approve, then it's a match made in heaven." It was a clever move, hinging on parental consent. Raymond smiled again, turning to the clerk. "Give them a discount." He had initially thought of offering a 30% discount, knowing true luxury items rarely, if ever, went on sale. But seeing Brielle's sweet and delicate demeanor, his heart softened. "Half price."
The clerk thought he misheard: such discounts on diamonds were
unheard of. But Raymond was already being ushered away by his execs. After confirming he wasn't imagining things, the clerk smiled at the couple. "Please, swipe your card."
Max quickly produced his card and picked out a ring for himself, placing it in Brielle's palm before extending his own finger, Still reeling from the encounter, Brielle snapped back to reality when she felt the cool metal in her hand. She smiled and slipped the ring onto Max's finger. Max's charm was undeniable, attracting a crowd and spontaneous photos from passersby. Blonde beauties approached with friendly greetings, only to be politely turned away. After fitting the ring on Brielle, Max kissed her lips in front of everyone and whispered, "Reserved for me."
