Chapter 887:
Brian's lips curved slightly, as if he had a lot to say, but his heart was racing too fast.
For a brief second, he felt the urge to step toward her.
But as he met her gaze, he quickly pulled himself together, clenched his fists, and softly said, “Happy birthday.”
Rachel was caught off guard. It had been a long tsince they talked about anything personal—work was all
they ever discussed.
With how distant they had become, she never thought he would remember her birthday.
“Thank you,” she said, keeping her tone polite.
After that short moment, silence filled the room again.
Maybe, with how things were now, even a simple “happy birthday” felt a little out of place.
Rachel hesitated for a moment before forcing a small smile again. “Well... I'll get going then!”
Brian nodded in response.

Rachel walked out, and right after, Ronald stepped in. He noticed Brian opening a drawer and pulling out a small,
elegant box.
Inside was a diamond ring—the one meant for their wedding. He had kept it all these years.
But deep down, he knew he might never have the chance to give it to her.
Brian stared at the ring, his eyes filled with emotions—fondness, hesitation, and memories. And, of course, there
was also a deep sadness... A sadness so overwhelming, like waves crashing endlessly, too vast to hold back.
Ronald took one look at the ring before shifting his gaze away.
In reality, he knew more than he let on. He was aware that Brian had another drawer filled with beautifully
wrapped gifts.
Ever since Brian and Rachel separated, he had been preparing birthday gifts for her every year but never
actually gave them.

He had opened it before, even held the gift boxes in his hands, but he never found the courage to take one out.

Brian shut the drawer firmly and let
out a bitter chuckle ‘Regald dont

Right now, the only things he could give her were money, jewelry, properties—
things like that. But those were exactly the things she despised the most.
