In the end, Janet personally opened the last box and took it to the man. There was a necklace nestled within the box and there were some indecipherable words carved on said necklace.
Lara and Desire’s breaths caught and they exchanged looks with each other. “Is Boss really giving that out?” Has Boss decided on this man?
Mason arched a brow questioningly and he pulled Janet into his arms. “Tell me—what is this?” he asked quietly.
Janet cocked a brow at him and she flashed him a charming smile. Just when she was about to answer him, a voice rang out from the crowd. “Isn’t that Bossaro’s necklace?”
“Bossaro? What does that mean?”
“By wearing the necklace, it means that the man is allowed to only fall for one woman. If a mistress or lover were to show up in his life, members of the MX would hunt him down with all means and chop his head off.”
“What? What kind of rule is that?”
“How can the most powerful person in Asia agree to that?”
Bossaro’s were entirely custom made and the alphabets carved were the man’s Indonesian name.
This type of necklace represented purity and once the man wore the necklace, it meant that he agreed to cut off communication with other women altogether; in fact, no other women or lovers would be allowed to approach him.
“Will you wear this?” Janet smiled at him especially seductively.
The young socialites and wealthy women were shocked when they heard that and they secretly prayed that Mason would reject Janet.
If he puts on the necklace, it means that we do not stand a chance anymore.
Rebecca bit her lip hard while clasping her hands tightly together. If what they say is true, then there’s no chance for me to be Mason’s lover. I can only pray for him not to put on the necklace right now. Please don’t… Please don’t destroy my last shred of hope.
On the other hand, Old Madam Lowry was feeling anxious. Well, my granddaughter-in-law is indirectly proposing to him. Why is the b*stard hesitating?
Mason laughed. “Come here,” he drawled. “Help me put it on.”
Upon hearing that, the young socialites and wealthy women present stiffened straight away.
That woman has the most powerful person in Asia wrapped around her finger! Is it worth it for him to give up endless options just for a woman?
And so, Janet reached out to put the necklace around Mason’s neck leisurely.
The color drained from Rebecca’s face when she saw the couple’s public displays of affection on the stage; she felt as though she was about to lose her mind.
Has she become Mason’s woman? If she ends up with him, she will rise above everybody! I now understand everything! The vixen, J’Adore, has snatched away everything from me! I hate her!
After a few minutes, Rebecca ran to the banquet’s restroom with her bag, her silhouette looking especially miserable.
Just as she arrived at the restroom, she heard footsteps behind her.
Rebecca recognized the footsteps straight away.
Hence, she turned around to bury her face in the person’s embrace. “Mom!” She sobbed.
Esme patted Rebecca’s back to console her.
In all honesty, I feel horrible too. After all, I spent a few million on the gift. Furthermore, I did not receive anything in return after giving away a Thousand-year Ginseng and my son-in-law has just been robbed of me before my very eyes. How can I possibly be alright with that?
“Mom.” Rebecca looked up slowly. Her eyes were bloodshot and she wore a vicious expression. “It seems like I have no choice but to use this.”
Esme remained quiet for a few seconds when she heard that.
After a pause, she finally broke the silence with a cruel tone. “Rebecca, you have to be careful. I will always support you.”
Hearing that, Rebecca gritted her teeth in determination. She squinted menacingly and a trace of cruelty flashed across her gaze. “J’Adore, my dear J’Adore! You must not blame me!”
