NovelBookChapter 843:
Meanwhile, Minna barely touched her plate. She didn’t add sugar to her coffee, as if the bitterness of the coffee
could mask the bitterness in her heart.
She let out a sigh. Then, slowly, she turned to Brenna. “I heard Ethan gave you a diamond tiara for your
birthday...”
Brenna’s brow lifted slightly. She didn’t need to ask why Minna brought that up—not with the engagement
looming. Minna probably wanted to borrow it.
“Yeah, a lot of people know about that,” Brenna kept her tone light, eyes steady. “Why did you suddenly mention
it?” She feigned ignorance, pretending not to guess Minna'’s intention to borrow the tiara.
Minna hadn't expected Brenna to see through it so quickly. Rumors said Ethan's birthday gift to Brenna had cost
a fortune—1.3 billion, to be exact. The tiara was legendary.
It was indeed a valuable piece, but Minna only wanted to wear it for a short while and then return it to Brenna.
That wasn’t too much to ask, right?
After all, they would becfamily in the future.
When Brenna didn’t offer the tiara outright, Minna’s smile faltered. “Would it be alright if | borrowed your tiara?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJust for one day?” As soon as the words left her mouth, she kept her eyes glued to Brenna, hoping for a positive
response.
In her mind, it wasn’t a big ask. Someone like Brenna, who was from a wealthy family, surely wouldn't care much
about a single piece. Besides, Minna had heard that in wealthy families, everything was used only once—
luxurious dresses and expensive jewelry. Rich people would just forget about them after using them once.
With that logic, she convinced herself that Brenna wouldn't even wear the tiara again in public. So, it would be
totally okay for her to borrow it.
Still silent, Brenna took another bite of dessert, perfectly unbothered. The clock ticked past a minute, and
Minna’s nerves began to fray. She leaned in slightly.
“Miss Harper, it’s just for the engagement banquet. You don’t even have to bring it toahead of time. Just
give it toon the day of my engagement. I'll give it back right after. Nothing will happen to it, | swear.”

Lifting her head, Brenna met her gaze with a soft laugh. “I thought my silence already answered you.”
The response stung more than Minna had expected. Her cheeks burned as the realization hit—Brenna had been
refusing her with her silence earlier.
Minna sat there, stiff and ashamed, wishing she had never asked in the first place.
“I get it...” she muttered, though bitterness laced her tone. “But we're both going to marry someone from the
Mitchell family, right? We'll becfamily in the future. Isn't it natural for us to help each other?”
Brenna kept her voice calm but firm.
