Of course.
I adore anything from you,â Sanford responded, pulling her into a comforting embrace.
âThank you, Love.
â
His public display of affection, so candid amidst the throng of onlookers, stirred a wave of shyness within Maggie.
It drew a series of whistles and laughs from the men, while the women watched from a distance, whispering among themselves.
âThose cuff links are barely worth a hundred thousand dollars.
Isnât that a rather cheap gift?â
âWell, she is an ordinary woman, after all.
One hundred thousand must be a fortune to her.
â ut isnât any money she has likely given to her by Sanford?â
âSanford dumped Millie for this unassuming woman? Poor Millie.

The women discussed among themselves.

Curiosity piqued, Brian rummaged through the bag, extracting a small box.

Brian, ignoring her reprimand, examined the tie clip nestled in the box.
âYouâre not giving this to him.

âWhy not?â
âIâve never received a gift from you.

Rosalynn was at a loss for words.

â
âThatâs irrelevant.
Bottom line, youâre not giving Sanford the gift,â
Brian declared, pocketing the tie clip with a finality that brooked no argument.
