Chapter 957: Ethan had picked it, and if Brenna had wanted it, that was reason enough for her to claim it.

"It's beautiful. I'll take it," she said.

Ethan hesitated, but only for a moment. Deep down, he knew what she had said earlier wasn't wrong. She had helped him when others had walked away and pulled him through missteps he might not have survived alone. With a faint smile, he said, “It looks good on you." Gracie lit up at the praise. "Thank you for choosing such a lovely piece for me, Ethan." Having sold two expensive necklaces in one go meant a generous commission.

The sales associate was visibly happy. She began wrapping the necklace.

Brenna stood by calmly, though a flicker of disappointment settled in her chest. She was a bit displeased with Ethan. She was tired of pretending this didn't bother her.

Just then, Ellie stepped beside Ethan and whispered, "You let someone else take the necklace your girlfriend picked. Shouldn't you be choosing an even better one for her now?" Ethan glanced at Brenna. For the first time, he felt troubled by dealing with women.

Still, he knew he couldn't let Brenna walk away feeling overlooked. So, he turned back to the display case and began carefully studying each necklace. But Gracie wasn't finished. Each tEthan looked at a necklace for more than 30 seconds, she would say that it was beautiful. She wasn't going to let him pick anything for Brenna without interference.

Brenna smiled knowingly as a clever idea cto her. She pointed to a gaudy and overpriced necklace tucked off to the side and asked Ethan sweetly, "Could you helptry this one?" Holding the necklace up to the mirror, Brenna tried to picture it against her own neckline. Each passing second convinced her more that this piece belonged around the neck of someone older, perhaps her mother or even Ethan's. Standing nearby, Ethan silently agreed. While he thought the necklace wasn't the best fit for Brenna, he kept his opinion gentle and stepped forward to help fasten it for her.

"Well? Does it suit me?" Brenna asked, her uncertainty evident as she glanced over her shoulder at Ethan.

Choosing his words with care, Ethan hesitated before speaking, knowing Brenna was upset with him right now. Explore more stories galηovals"Maybe you should keep looking. There could be something better."

"Ellie, what's your opinion?" With a practiced smile, Brenna turned to Ellie, hoping for a more supportive answer she thought Ellie must understand her intentions. She pretended to be charmed by the necklace.

Ellie gave her a thoughtful look, taking in Brenna's reflection before sneaking a quick glance at Gracie, who looked every bit as confused. Inwardly. Gracie wondered if Vanland's fashion tastes were just different from those in Norview.

"That's a stunning piece. Paired with a velvet gown, it would look incredibly elegant," Ellie said honestly. The necklace really was made for women who carried themselves with mature elegance, especially those who favored long dresses.

Gracie took a glance at Ethan first. Then, watching Brenna admire the necklace so much, she said, "Do you think it looks good on me, too? This style is something I'd actually wear."
