Trying to seem casual, Janet asked calmly, "How much?"

Glancing at the other people in the shop, the shop manager leaned closer and whispered in Janet's ear, "One million. What do you think?"

This amount was more than enough to cover Hannah's medical bills.

Janet was stunned. She looked carefully at the ring on her finger. The emerald nestled in the middle was like a pea that was just freed from its pod. The little gem was round and slightly cold, but its deep green color was dazzling.

She couldn't believe that the ring Ethan had given her was that valuable.
