Chapter 956: Ethan took the necklace, stepped closer to Brenna, and draped it around her neck. A warm smile settled on his face as he fastened the clasp.

Gracie watched the scene from a distance and clenched her fists in anger. She had asked Ethan to help her try on earrings earlier, but he had refused. Now, without being asked, he was willingly putting a necklace on Brenna.

Ellie caught the shift in Gracie's expression and chuckled softly. "Miss Wilson, Ethan's heart belongs to his girlfriend. There's no way you can get between them." Gracie shot her a scathing look, then shoved past her without a word. The sales assistant was still busy wrapping up Gracie's massive order. It was over 200 items, which would take stime. Gracie decided to interfere with Ethan and Brenna during this time.

Ethan had been warm to her before. She refused to believe he could turn so cold to her now.

She marched up to them and planted herself in front of the pair. "I don't think this suits Miss Harper. It doesn't look good on her." Ethan and Brenna both turned to her with cold expressions. Brenna reached for the mirror handed to her by the sales assistant and lifted it. She studied her reflection with satisfaction. The necklace sparkled against her pale skin. It looked like it had been made for her.

But now that Gracie had said those things, Brenna had no reason to keep the necklace on. She turned slightly toward Ethan and said, “I agree. It doesn't look good. I will take it off. I think it suits Miss Wilson better." Gracie's eyes lit up. "Yes, it does suit me. Ethan, why don't you helptry it on?" Ethan met her gaze and saw the hope in her eyes. For a moment, he hesitated. Slowly, he unfastened the necklace from around Brenna's neck.

Gracie stepped forward and lifted her hair. She said pointedly, "Ethan, have you forgotten how I helped you in Norview? When no one believed in you, I did. I was the one who backed you. And when your competitors tried to bring you down, it was my father who stepped in to help you. That's how you made it. That's why you're standing here today. Now I'm only asking for one thing. Helpput on a necklace." Gracie kept her smile fixed, and her eyes searched Ethan's face. And there it was. His guilt was unmistakable. Meanwhile, Brenna, who hadn't spoken for a while, reached out and laced Ethan's fingers with hers. Then, she began to swing it, like a child tugging on someone they trusted. The simple gesture softened him in an instant. New content uploaded gVlnov_lsEthan looked back at Gracie, then at the necklace in his hand. After a short pause, he turned to the sales associate and offered it to her. "Could you help this lady try it on, please?" The smile vanished from Gracie's face. What was left was a mixture of stunned disbelief and the sting of rejection.

The sales associate glanced between them and quickly understood the situation. It was hard not to feel secondhand embarrassment for Gracie. Still, this wasn't the first tshe'd witnessed a moment like this. Keeping her expression neutral, she stepped forward and fastened the necklace around Gracie's neck.

"Miss, this necklace suits you perfectly," said the sales associate as she handed Gracie a mirror.

Gracie gazed at her reflection. The necklace gleamed against her skin, and in her eyes, it looked even better on her than it had on Brenna. She didn't care if she liked it or not.
