Observing Karen’s envious expression, Mia purposefully turned to Patricia and suggested, “You know,
since we’re going out for dinner tonight, why don’t you wear the bracelet? It’s been a while since you
Wore II.”
Patricia chuckled. “I work at the supermarket most of the time, so there’s hardly any chance to wear it.
Plus, I’d be devastated if it were to get scratched or damaged.”
“Well, since we’re dining out today and you’re not on duty, why not wear it now? It’s the perfect
occasion.”
Mia suggested.
“Yes, go ahead, put it on. Let everyone admire the gift Mia gave you,” Eva chimed in.
Unable to resist their persistence, Patricia eventually relented and headed to the bedroom to retrieve
the
bracelet.
Mia shared a knowing look with Eva, who had just picked up on her subtle signal.novelbin
Shortly after, Patricia emerged wearing the diamond bracelet. Karen couldn’t help but gaze at it.
enviously. “So, this is Mia’s purchase. It’s quite lovely and bears a resemblance to my bracelet,” Eva
said.
Patricia smiled and glanced over. “Really? That’s quite a coincidence. I’m not accustomed to wearing
jewelry most of the time. I Initially declined Mia’s offer to purchase it, but she insisted on buying such

“Mom, if you run out, just inform me. I’ll purchase it for you,” Patricia reassured her.
Edna sighed deliberately. “But if you were to relocate abroad to Nord City, it would be quite

for you to send me anything.”
Karen swiftly added, “Exactly, international postage is extremely expensive. It’s barely enough to cover
