That look sent an unexpected chill crawling down Catherine’s spine.

“Grant.” Elena said.

Finished

She genuinely hadn’t expected to see Grant here. The last time they’d spoken was over two weeks ago, when she asked him to handle the donation of the Everlove Heart. She hadn’t even had the chance to follow up since.

Grant dropped his earlier stern demeanor and broke into a warm, almost indulgent smile. “So, kid, did you like what I sent you?”

Elena blinked, clearly caught off guard. “Wait… what?”

Adam, ever the quick thinker, immediately picked up on what was going on. He stepped forward with a polite smile. “Miss Sterling, I had no idea you knew Mr. Jones. I’ll have the bracelet packaged and delivered to you right away.”

That was when it finally clicked for Elena.

So the bracelet… was his.

Thinking about it, it made perfect sense. Grant had always had a taste for rare gemstones, fine jewelry, and collectible pieces. That rich green bracelet fit his style perfectly, understated but unmistakably valuable.

“Thank you,” Elena said, her tone soft and respectful.

The surrounding crowd exchanged subtle looks.

Everyone in that circle knew exactly what kind of person Grant was. Brilliant, influential, and notoriously difficult. He didn’t go out of his way for anyone.

And yet, here he was, treating Elena with obvious affection.

On top of that, there was the way he had openly shut Catherine down earlier.

The whole situation didn’t add up.

Unless… Elena’s adoptive parents were far from ordinary.

Catherine was equally confused, but confusion didn’t stop her from trying to take advantage of the situation.

“Elena, you know Mr. Jones? Why didn’t you tell me something this important sooner?” she said, stepping forward as if she had every right to question her.

Elena almost admired the audacity.

Just moments ago, Catherine had been picking a fight. Now she was acting like a concerned mother, even throwing in a slightly annoyed look for effect.

Finished:

“Mr. Jones,” Catherine continued smoothly, “that was just a misunderstanding earlier. It’s been such a long time since we last saw you. How have you been these days-

Grant didn’t let her finish.

“I don’t recall needing to explain who I know to someone irrelevant,” he said flatly.

There wasn’t even a hint of politeness in his tone.

Then he turned to Elena, his voice softening instantly. “Ellie, don’t let something like anger cloud your judgment. People like her don’t get to show up at your parents‘ graves. She hasn’t earned that, understand?”

Elena nodded. “I understand.”

She hadn’t planned on letting Catherine go in the first place. .

She doesn’t deserve it. Not as a mother. Not in any way.

If her adoptive parents were still alive and knew how Catherine and Richard had treated her, they would never have allowed her to return to that family.

Grant gave a small nod, then turned to Adam with a faint frown. “This place is getting a little too noisy. If this is how things are run now, I might reconsider donating anything in the future.”

Adam immediately understood the implication.

“Mrs. Hart, I’m afraid we’ll have to ask you to leave,” he said without hesitation.

The choice was obvious.

One was a wealthy socialite.

The other was a respected academic, a serious collector, and someone countless people were eager to stay on good terms with.

Catherine’s breathing grew uneven with anger. “You invited me here!”

Adam remained perfectly composed. “Then we won’t be extending that invitation again. Please leave.”

“You–fine. Just you wait,” she snapped, her voice trembling.

Her eyes had already turned red.

Today, she had completely embarrassed herself.

Furious and humiliated, she turned and stormed out of the exhibition hall.

After that, Elena and Sophia continued walking through the exhibition with Grant.

When he heard that Elena was buying the bracelet as a gift for Evelyn, he let out a soft chuckle. “Your mother–in–law is here? Bring me over, I’d like to say hello.“

“Mr Jones, it’s been a while.”

Before Elena could respond, Evelyn had already approached them.

“Mom,” Elena greeted.

Evelyn gave a small nod, her gaze briefly sweeping between Grant and Elena. She had witnessed the earlier scene from a distance.

What she hadn’t expected was just how close Grant seemed to Elena.
