"I'm leaving now," Gracie reluctantly said, clinging to the hope that Ethan might change his mind.
As she walked out, she glanced back every few steps. Ethan didn't even look in her direction. He was already helping Brenna pick out jewelry.
Gracie's heart sank in disappointment.
She drew a long breath. People envied her. The daughter of the Wilson family. A girl with a gilded life, draped in silk and privilege. But what most people didn't know was that she lived in fear. She was beaten at home, her every act of rebellion met with fists.
She had clawed her way out of that place.
She just wanted to seek shelter with Ethan.
After Gracie left, Brenna stared blankly at the display. The necklaces no longer held any appeal. Her mood had soured the moment Gracie appeared. What was the point in choosing anything now? She reached for the necklace she had planned to buy for Giselle and handed it to the salesperson, ready to pay. But Ethan beat her to it, paying for it. "Wrap up all these necklaces," he told the staff. He had seen her eyeing them earlier, so he bought them all for her to wear.
Ellie picked out a necklace for her mother and another for her brother's girlfriend. She chose two more for herself and paid for everything together.
During the whole exchange, Brenna barely said a word to Ethan. He wanted to say something to lift her mood, but with Ellie and the staff around, he remained silent.
Once everything was settled, Ellie walked out with Brenna.

Then, she turned to Ethan and spoke in a steady voice. "We should take a break. I don't think we're right for each other."
She felt disappointed in Ethan. She had always believed she didn't need a man in her life, but Ethan had changed that. His sense of om responsibility and care for her had touched something deep inside her. She had decided to give him a chance. But after today, she realized that he cared about Gracie a lot, which worried her.
"Are you breaking up with me?" Ethan asked, frustration in his voice. "Gracie and I are just friends. Nothing more. There's nothing going between us. Brenna, h not trying to cover anything up. If I had feelings for her, I'd admit it. I'd agree to the breakup. But I don't. You have to believe me. Don't break up withbecause of her. Please, just giveanother chance."
