Corrine shook her head decisively. "If I were unaware of this bracelet's profound family significance, I might have kept it. But knowing its extraordinary meaning, why should I hold onto something that doesn't truly belong to me?"

The Ashton family held no nostalgic memories for her.

If there was anything she found difficult to relinquish, it was undoubtedly Farris.

During her three years with the Ashtons, she had endured countless moments of coldness, but Farris-being nearly her grandfather's age-had genuinely cared for her, consistently considering her needs and feelings.

Farris understood Corrine intimately, recognizing that once she committed to a decision, her resolve remained unshakeable.

He sighed softly, a rueful smile playing across his weathered features as he retrieved the red box. "Bruce is truly unfortunate," he murmured.

She had gravely underestimated Corrine.

Initially, she had believed that Corrine's humble background would render her insignificant within the Ashton family, unworthy of any kindness. Never had she expected that Corrine could manipulate Farris into privately entrusting her with such a valuable bracelet.
