Wearing a billion pounds on her wrist?
She wasn’t that extravagant.
Eleanor grabbed her hand before she could take the bracelet off.
Her tone turned slightly stern.
“If you refuse it,” Eleanor said, “then that means you don’t want to marry Sebastian.”
She looked Amelia straight in the eyes.
“Tell me honestly. Do you not want to marry him?”
Amelia froze.
Did she want to marry Sebastian?
Of course she did.
In her previous life, he had treated her better than anyone else ever had.
He had even avenged her.
Deep down, she had been willing a thousand times over
But…
For some reason…
It still felt like something was missing.
Eleanor sighed when Amelia stayed silent,
“I know,” she said gently. “Sebastian can seem a little fiere.
“But if he ever treats you badly, you tell me,
“He still listens to me, at least a little.”
Amelia nodded.
“He’s actually very good to me.”
“That’s more like it!”
Eleanor’s eyes sparkled with excitement,
“When my health improves, I’ll immediately arrange a visit to the Bennett family.
“We’ll formally propose the marriage and hold your engagement banquet.”
Amelia hesitated for a moment before asking quietly,

“Grandma… aren’t you worried about my reputation?
“Everyone outside says terrible things about me.”
Eleanor chuckled.
“Of course I know.
“After Charles passed away, people even spread rumors that I kept a lover.”
Amelia burst out laughing.
Eleanor waved it off.
“People will always talk,” she said calmly.
“So let them.
“I only believe what I see with my own eyes.”
She squeezed Amelia’s hand warmly.
“You’re a good child.
“Leaving the entire Sterling family to you… I’m completely at ease.”
Amelia felt her chest tighten.
Being trusted like this…
It almost made her tear up.
They chatted for another half hour.
When Eleanor still looked reluctant to stop talking, Amelia finally insisted she rest.
Like a well–behaved patient, Eleanor obediently lay down.
Within minutes, she drifted off to sleep.

The moment Amelia stepped out of the Sterling family old mansion, she headed straight for the mall.
She couldn’t take it anymore.
The apartment Sebastian had decorated for her looked like something straight out of a fairy tale–pink walls, lace curtains, crystal decorations, the whole princess fantasy,
Last night she’d even dreamed she was Snow White.
If she kept living in that place, she was seriously going to lose her mind.
So today, she had one mission.
Erase the pink.
Completely.

Amelia walked into a high–end home décor store and inmediately spotted a display styled in clean, minimalist tones–sleek furniture, neutral colors, simple lines.
Perfect.
“This one,” Amelia said without hesitation.
She pulled out her card and placed the order on the spot. “Send a team to this address and redo the entire place in this style.”
The clerk began filling out the paperwork.
But the moment she saw the address Amelia had written down, her eyes widened in disbelief.
“Miss… are you sure this address is correct?”
Amelia raised an eyebrow. “Why wouldn’t it
be?”
The clerk pointed at the paper, clearly stunned.
“Riverview Estates.”
That was one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in the city.
The starting price for a house there was five hundred thousand dollars per square meter.
Yet the girl standing in front of her…
The clerk’s gaze slowly traveled up and down Amelia’s outfit.estat
Plain dress.
No logo.
Cheap fabric,
Amelia noticed the suspicious look immediately.
“You think the address is fake?”
The clerk hesitated for a second before nodding honestly.
“Well… your dress looks like something from a street stall. Honestly, if you hadn’t paid so quickly, I probably wouldn’t have even dared process the order,”
Amelia’s eye twitched.
She walked over to the mirror and stared at herself.
The dress really was plain.
No brand.
No style.

After returning to the Bennett family, she had deliberately dressed to gain their favor. Buying expensive clothes would only make them suspicious.
So yes.
Everything she wore was basically street–market clothing.
Amelia sighed softly.
Then her gaze shifted across the hallway–and landed on a boutique with a familiar logo.
A slow smile curved across her lips.
“Well… what a coincidence.”
Inside the store, it was quiet.
Only two sales associates were chatting behind the counter.
The moment Amelia stepped in, one of them immediately ran over with bright enthusiasm.
“Hello, ma’am! I’m Lily. Is there a particular style you’re looking for today?”
Before Amelia could even respond-
Another voice cut in with a sharp, mocking snort.
“Lily, stop running over to serve everyone who walks through the door. At least learn to look at what kind of customer they are first.”
Amelia didn’t need to ask who that comment was aimed at.
But Lily quickly grabbed Amelia’s arm and lowered her
voice apologetically.
“Please don’t mind her,” she whispered. “She’s… going though
“I’ll help you find something nice.”

Despite the awkward moment, Lily kept a warm smile on her face the entire time. She patiently introduced the fabrics, the cuts, and the quality of each piece,
Professional. Friendly. Respectful,
Amelia watched her for a moment… then smiled in satisfaction,
She patted Lily lightly on the shoulder.
