Chapter 749:

Brenna slipped the bangle onto her left wrist immediately. “It’s stunning. I’ve got something for you, too.”

She pulled a large envelope of cash from her bag and handed it to Belen. “Please don’t refuse this. Ethan and I don’t visit often, so take this money and treat yourself. Spend it freely, and when it’s spent, I’ll bring more.”

Belen loved money. Though she was old and spent little now, the sight of the thick envelope made her beam.

Minna, meanwhile, felt a bit awkward. She had only brought fruit and cakes for Belen. Elsa hadn’t suggested bringing something expensive before.
