Julian didn’t overthink it.
“Send all ten pieces to her anyway. They were meant for her in the first place.”
He still remembered at the birthday banquet how she was publicly humiliated by Katie for picking up discarded jewelry, which was then demanded back.
He understood what it felt like to live at someone else’s mercy.
She had lived under Katie’s overbearing shadow, must enduring too much injustices.
Just then, the person in charge of taking Katie to the isolated island called.
“Mr. Reid, Miss Shred has been here for a day now and refuses to eat or drink. What should we do?”
Julian frowned. “Without my permission, she is not allowed to die! If she won’t eat or drink, give her IV nutrients! Do I have to tell you everything?”
His subordinate hung up the phone in fear.
By evening, Julian had prepared everything for meeting the woman he loved.
The pre–ordered engagement gifts had arrived.
“The first piece is ‘Heart of True Love‘, a masterpiece by the renowned American jewelry designer James Houghton. Perfect for a proposal.
“The second is ‘Ice–Heart Romance‘, designed over the course of a year by last year’s Tiffany American Design Excellence Championship winner Thomas Wilson. Ideal for presenting to someone
admire…”
Julian picked up each one. Both were extremely valuable, priced at over 100 million, but…
But something felt missing–that unique, irreplaceable quality.
The assistant, sensing his thoughts, opened the third box.
“This was the design originally slated to win this year’s TADE competition before you had it changed

to Miss Aria’s work.
“I only just realized that this design is truly unique–an eagle and rose bangle that separates into two bracelets and combines into a single heart. The interlocking teeth pattern is one–of–a–kind, impossible to counterfeit or replace.
“This is Miss Katie’s work. If possible, I thought we could buy the design patent and have her create a few exclusive designs for Reid Jewelry…”
The moment Julian saw the bangle, he seemed cannot hear anything.
For a long time, he couldn’t even feel his heartbeat.
He had to admit, in that moment, he was afraid.
Afraid that Katie might be the person he had been searching for ten years.
Especially after all the cruel things he had done to her…
“Mr. Reid! Mr. Reid?”
Julian rubbed his chest, and only after a long while did the oppressive pain subside.
He calmed himself down.
This design alone couldn’t prove anything. It was possible Katie had seen it somewhere and been inspired.
One thing he was absolutely certain of: the ruby bracelet on Aria’s wrist definitely didn’t belong to Katie.
But why did his heart still feel like it was crushed under a thousand–pound boulder?
Never mind, everything would be clear soon.
He personally drove, leading a convoy to pick up Aria.
Dozens of supercars loaded with roses drove magnificently into the Shred family’s upscale neighborhood, immediately drawing the attention of all the elite residents.
Seeing the fleet of luxury cars, Aria’s heart raced wildly.

Was the Reid heir going to propose to her?
Was she really going to marry into the Reid family?
Julian got out of his car and personally opened the door for her.
“Miss Shred, today, I’ll take you there myself!”
Julian was like a devoted knight, and Aria was filled with joy, not questioning anything.
But as the car drove deeper into more remote areas, leaving the other cars far behind, she suddenly grew suspicious:
“Where are you taking me?”
“To the place where we first met!”
