Goodbye, My Love

Chapter 1006

How could Grady do such a thing to her! He'd left her humiliated, and for a stranger, no less

Loraine, meanwhile, found herself bewildered by Grady’s choice. She didn’t require anyone to purchase the

watch for her. How had things escalated to this point?

Despite Kassidy’s immature attempts to acquire the watch, and how exasperating it was, Loraine didn’t desire to

engage in such a frivolous battle with Kassidy.

When it cto Grady, she certainly didn’t want to be in his debt.

In response, Loraine simply shook her head. The feelings reflected in her eyes were a mystery to Grady.

She declared, “I've made up my mind, and | won't regret it. To some, the crown might hold more value, but to

me, this pocket watch is the world’s greatest treasure.”

Her extravagant and fearless demeanor stirred a wave of envy amongst the onlookers, and once again, Loraine
