Chapter 31 She Is Being So

Inconsiderate

Brenna surveyed the assortment of clothes before her. None of them interested her. During her years with the Barretts, new clothes had been a rarity, but she had never minded. Her time had been consumed by studying and sketching designs for the family, leaving little room for such concerns.

Now that she finally had the freedom to choose, Rosie had already taken the finest selections. A flicker of annoyance passed through Brenna. She would rather walk away empty-handed than settle for leftovers

Rosie, smug with satisfaction, caught the subtle shift in Brenna's demeanor. Her plan had worked-Brenna was clearly displeased.

What did it matter if Ethan had personally escorted Brenna back? She still managed to make Brenna feel upset

Rosie was determined to make sure Brenna felt unhappy.

Sliding up beside her, Rosie looped her arm through Brenna's with a show of warmth. Feigning an apologetic look, she said, "Brenna, I saw these clothes and figured you wouldn't mind if I picked out a few for myself first. You don't mind, do you?"

The store's selection was undoubtedly high-end, and Rosie's taste was different from Brenna's. But even though there were still some elegant pieces left that Brenna liked, she had no interest in getting what was left

a faint smile, Brenna eased her arm away, putting space between them. "I don't mind," she replied. Rosie's satisfaction deepened at the sight of Brenna's restrained irritation. She had gotten to her. The clothes she had chosen were the most luxurious of the lot-not because she
