ring back and stretched out his right hand.
Unexpectedly, the next second, he heard Gilda’s soft voice. “Since you are really sincere, prove it toby
smashing it with a hammer.”
Derek said, “What?”
Derek thought, ‘Smash it?”
Derek wondered if he had misheard.

Derek said, “This ring is worth at least 200 million dollars. How can | smash it?” He hadn't cto his
senses.
Gilda asked, “Didn't you just tellyou would compensate me? | think this ring is not something so important.
Or, Mr. Donovan, are you reluctant to lose it? Looking at Derek’s drastically changing face,
Gilda showed no emotion.

People started to talk to each other again, “200 million dollars are
Bone!
“So much money! All gone!”
“Derek must be heartbroken now.”
Listening to the voices of the crowd, Derek dropped the hammer as if he had run out of energy. His eyes were
