Chapter 951: Giselle showed the most concern. "Alec isn't as simple as he pretends to be. He probably wants you to take care of him after his retirement. Brenna, don't let him fool you, or you might fall into his trap." With a quiet nod, Brenna chose not to argue.

Shepard, however, saw things differently. "Men who once tasted success never settle quietly. Alec isn't reaching out just for your care; he's likely got another plan in mind. We have to keep our eyes open, especially you, Brenna. If he contacts you, letknow right away." "I'm not foolish, Dad. You don't have to be this worried," said Brenna, who understood Shepard's warning but felt he was being overly cautious.

"Just follow my advice. You're still new to this business world. People can be more dangerous than you think. Truston this," Shepard said firmly.

Giselle said, "Yeah. Listen to your father." Brenna agreed, saying, "I'll be careful from now on." Hearing this, Giselle and Shepard finally relaxed a little.

Then, Giselle brought up rumors about Ethan and Gracie. Ethan instantly becGiselle and Shepard's target of criticism.

"I used to think Ethan was reliable. Now, he seems just like another playboy. I don't want him marrying you," Shepard said to Brenna, making his disapproval clear.

Giselle chimed in, "I feel the sway. Brenna and Ethan just aren't right for each other. I even tried setting Brenna up on a blind date, but she wouldn't hear of it." Having spent twith Ethan yesterday, Ernst spoke up for his friend. "You've got Ethan all wrong. He's been keeping his distance from Gracie. They haven't met up in ages." Giselle shot him a disapproving look. "He's seeing your sister, so he'll naturally put on an act in front of you. You can't expect him to tell you everything." The exchange...

This left Brenna at a loss for words. Her parents' opinion of Ethan seemed to be dropping by the minute. Ernst gave up trying to reason with them, frustration settling in.

Later that night, Brenna lay in bed, exchanging voice messages with Ellie. Their conversation turned to Ethan and Gracie, and Ellie didn't trust Ethan much, either.

MORE UPDATES IN GALThe next morning, Brenna let herself sleep in, not waking until after nine. Later, she met Ellie, and together, they drove into town, making their way to a mall.

With the new year drawing close, Ellie wanted to buy her mother a beautiful necklace. Brenna also wanted to find something special for her mother, so the two decided to go shopping together.

Store after store, they wandered through display cases, but nothing caught their eye.

Inside a spacious jewelry boutique, glass counters sparkled with jade bangles while shelves gleamed with a rainbow of gemstones and glimmering gold.

Wandering from one glittering display to another, Brenna suddenly spotted a gold necklace its emerald pendant catching the light. She believed Giselle would like it.

"Hi there, could I see this one up close?" Brenna asked, inũng to the e elegant Necklace behind the glass.

"Miss, you have a great eye. This piece just arrived yesterday. The emerald is genuine, sof the best e quality, we carry. Is it for you, or is it a gift?" the clerk said, her enthusiasm shining through. She carefully retrieved the necklace.
