Isabella’s heart skipped a beat at Hannah’s words, but she kept her excitement hidden. She spoke earnestly, “Come on. Hannali, don’t say that. It’s my fault you had to spend an extra 180 thousand.
How could I even think about asking you for anything else right now. Honestly, I’m already happy just knowing you’re not upset with me.”
As she spoke. Isabella’s eyes stayed fixed on the mirror, and she couldn’t help but keep praising. “It’s gorgeous, seriously. Hannah, this set suits your style so well.”
Hannah looked at herself in the mirror, absolutely delighted. She pulled Isabella down to sit beside her. “As long as I could get this jewelry set, I wouldn’t mind paying even more.
“But if it weren’t for you, I never would’ve tracked down the original owner, let alone convinced them to sell it to me. So if there’s anything you want, tell me. You don’t have to be so forma with me.”
Since Hannah had put it that way, Isabella didn’t bother being polite anymore. She admitted, “There’s something I really want, but I’m kind of shy to bring it up.”
“You silly thing, just say it, whatever it is,” Hannah said cheerfully clearly in a great mood.
Isabella finally whispered, “I’ve actually been eyeing a bag for a while. You know, I haven’t been back in the country for ages, so when I first opened my studio, a lot of people didn’t think I’d make it.
“Some even gave me a hard time on purpose. Just a few days ago, someone made fun of me because my bag was out of style, so I thought maybe I should get a new one.
“But I don’t have any extra money right now. So if you really want to reward me, could you buy me that bag?”
s just that the bag is pretty pricey, so I was
As she spoke, Isabella leaned her head affectionately against Hannah’s shoulder. “It’s j a bit shy to mention it.”
Hannah didn’t even blink. She handed it her black card straight to Isabella. “It’s just a bag. How pricey could it be? Go wild, buy whatever catches your eye.”
Isabella couldn’t stop thanking her, taking the card with both hands. Staring at the black card in her hand, her eyes lit up with uncontainable joy.
Meanwhile, after leaving the hospital, Aurora kept thinking about how chummy Eliana and Nathan had been.
She honestly couldn’t figure out why Logan had gotten so soft lately. Eliana always gave her attitude, even dared to talk back to their mom, and Logan just let it all slide.
And now, he didn’t even bother to call Eliana out for getting so close to Nathan. Aurora was even more stumped.
‘Is he really just going to let her do whatever she wants just because she’s pregnant with his kid?‘ she grumbled. Aurora just couldn’t swallow her anger. After fuming for ages, she finally told her driver to head straight for the Lyons Group.
Once she got there, she marched right into the lobby and hired a bunch of people to stir

trouble.
Those people started shouting that Eliana was cheating on her husband, calling her shameless and a disgrace. With all that yelling, it didn’t take long for a crowd to gather.
As the crowd swelled and more people started pointing and gossiping, the receptionist’s expression grew increasingly anxious. She hurried to call security to deal with the commotion

the receptionist and urged, “Quirk, cali $s, Lyons?
The receptiondat finally called Eliane.
Ediana had just gotten back to the office and was swamped with work when she got a call about Aurora causing a scene downstairs. Her expression instantly soured.
Right now, nothing was more important to Eliana than running the company well, making sure her parents could live comfortably, and making up for the regrets of her past.
She honestly didn’t have the time or patience to deal with the Blic family’s drama.
At that moment, she was sick of this so–called cooling–off period All she wanted was to finalize her divorce with Logan, just to put an end to the Eliot family’s constant drama.
But now, with Aurora shouting on the other end of the line, Eliana had zero intention of indulging her nonsense. She simply replied with a quick “okay” and made her way downstairs.
While heading down, Eliana called the police and told them exactly what was going on.
When the elevator doors opened and Eliana walked out onto the first floor, some of the onlookers immediately greeted her before scattering and getting back to work.
Aurora was genuinely taken aback by the scene.
Even though she didn’t want to admit it, the way Eliana carried herself just now was seriously impressive, totally different from the quiet homebody she remembered.
Still, when Aurora saw Eliana, she instantly put on a proud facade. She just didn’t buy that anyone could change so much in less than a month.
She believed that the more Eliana put on a show, the more it proved she was unsure of herself.
With that thought, Aurora suddenly yelled, “So you finally stopped hiding, huh? Eliana, how dare you? You got into a fight with my brother and ran back to your parents‘ place.
“We gave you space, thinking you just needed to cool off. But you go and get cozy with another guy, completely disrespecting my brother. Do you even care about him at all? Have you no shame?”
Eliana listened to Aurora’s rant, her eyes glinting with coldness as she stared her down.
Honestly, Aurora had always talked to her this way, but only now did Eliana realize just how infuriating she was.
Seriously, how did I even put up with someone like this before? How did I not lose it with such a piece of work?” Eliana wondered to herself.
The pure disdain on Eliana’s face was unmistakable. Aurora stiffened, her voice sharp. “What’s with that look? Got something to hide? Don’t think you can cover up what you’ve done. We all know everything
