Chapter 1176:
“Those gifts will be back in your hands tomorrow. | never wanted them in the first place.”
With that, Bess pressed the elevator’s close button, clearly finished with the conversation.
The doors slid shut. Inside, Bess turned to Brenna with an exasperated sigh. “I've never met someone so
shameless like her. She refuses to leave Ethan's home, thinking that'll win him over. She’s delusional if she
believes that’s going to work!”
She could tell that Brenna was very annoyed with Gracie, so she reassured her, “Do not worry, Brenna. | will help
you get rid of her. Honestly, her nerve is unbelievable. You know, she confided inonce—claimed Elsa is
rooting for her to marry Ethan. As if Elsa’s empty words actually meant anything!”
After a pause, she continued, “She likes to think of herself as smart, but she can’t see that Elsa is just fooling her.
When the truth finally hits her, she’ll turn on Elsa in a heartbeat. Elsa is just using her and likes being praised by
her.”
Agreement flickered in Brenna’s eyes as she said, “You're right—I've picked up on that as well. Elsa is drawn to
anyone who flatters her ego and can’t stand those who don’t. Since that one t| accidentally crossed her, she
has been holding a grudge against me.”
Bess shook her head with a knowing smile. “Just ignore her. Reaching out to her or saying sorry will only make

attention.”
“Look at this place! | have never seen a hso charming. Tell me, Brenna, is this a mansion?” Bess beamed,
her gaze sweeping over the Harper family’s lush garden. The fountain sparkled at the front, and flowerbeds lined
the path, all so carefully tended. The whole yard stretched out, wide and full of life. “This feels just like a secret
garden. | have only been to Ethan's place once, but your his every bit as stunning.”
Bess took another step and grinned. She kept talking as she wandered, admiring every corner.
Brenna walked beside her, pointing out the flowers and shrubs, telling her the names.
As they entered the house, Giselle returned from outside, carrying several shopping bags. “Brenna, | saw some
new bags at the Tior counter, so | got a few for you. | also got you slipsticks. Try them when you have time.”
Those gifts brought a bright smile to Brenna's face, and she hugged Giselle with genuine affection. “Thank you
so much, Mom. | love you.”

Spotting a new face in casual clothes, Giselle turned to Bess and asked, “And who might this be?”
Straightening her posture, Bess answered with a burst of confidence, “Hello, Mrs. Harper. You look so young and
stunning! My nis Bess, and I'm Ethan’s cousin.”
With a sheepish grin, she admitted,
