As Gianna walked closer, her heartbeat pounded faster and faster against her chest.

Who is that woman?

Why is she standing so close to Vincent?

Gianna stepped inside the jewelry store. Her voice trembled as she forced a smile. “Vincent, what a coincidence.”

Vincent’s brows pulled tight. He turned and saw Gianna standing a few steps away. “Gianna, what are you doing here?”

Gianna’s

eyes filled red in an instant. “Vincent, are you saying I don’t belong here?”

The woman beside him turned with poise. Her face was dazzling, her beauty sharp and impossible to ignore. She looked at Gianna, then shifted her gaze back to Vincent. “Vincent, who is she?”

Vincent opened his mouth to answer. “She’s my-”

“I’m his fiancée!” Gianna cut in, her voice shaking with rage and panic.

The woman’s brow lifted. A mocking smile curved her lips. “Oh? So you already have a fiancée? Yet you just said you wanted to buy me this necklace.”

Vincent’s face turned black as stone. “Gianna, stop talking nonsense!”

Then he faced the woman. “Ms. Oliviera, this is Gianna, second daughter of the Nygards. Our families have known each other for years.”

Gianna’s body trembled hard. Her voice broke as she cried out, “Family’s friend? Vincent, you and I clearly-”

“Enough! Gianna, watch yourself.” Vincent’s harsh tone cut through her like a whip.

Ms. Oliviera gave a small laugh and placed the necklace back on the counter. “It seems I came at the wrong time. Mr. Dester, you’re busy. I’ll head back and prepare the contract.”

Before leaving, she looked Gianna up and down, her eyes heavy with meaning. “Ms. Nygard, there are things in life you can’t force, no matter how badly you want them.”

With elegance, she turned away. Her back was graceful, her stride calm.

Gianna stood frozen, her tears brimming. “Vincent, why are you treating me like this? What did

Vincent pressed his fingers to his temples, his voice tired. “Gianna, let’s talk somewhere private.”

Belinda saw the tension and slipped away quietly.

Vincent led Gianna up to the café on the mall’s top floor.

The moment they sat down, Gianna blurted out, “Vincent, who is that woman? What is she to you?”

“She’s just a business partner,” Vincent replied flatly.

“Gianna, there are things between us we need to clear up.”

Gianna’s chest tightened. Dread poured into her stomach. “What things?”

Vincent looked her straight in the eye. “Gianna, there was never an engagement. That was only in your head. I’ve always seen you as a younger sister. The one I’m engaged to is Amelia. You need to understand that.”

Gianna’s voice shot up, sharp and shrill. “Why? Is it because Amelia owns shares? Is that why you’re marrying her?” Several customers turned their heads at the sound.

Vincent’s gaze turned ice cold. “My business with Amelia is not something I owe you answers for.”

Gianna’s tears spilled down her face. “But you told me you would protect me forever.”

“That was a promise from a brother to his sister,” Vincent said without hesitation.

He wanted her to see the truth. His wife had to be a woman who could support his career and his family’s future.

Gianna was the Nygards‘ daughter, but she was far from what he needed.

He had once believed she might get the shares, but now it was clear she would not.

He could not let her hope linger.

He had to smash it with his own hands.

Gianna’s cry tore out of her throat. “I don’t want to be your sister!”

Vincent’s jaw clenched as he paid the bill. He grabbed Gianna and pulled her out of the cafe.

In the silent fire escape, his patience snapped. “Gianna, look at you! Do you see yourself right

now? You’re acting like a madwoman, screaming in front of everyone!”

The words hit her like a bucket of freezing water.

She stood stiff, her lips trembling. “Vincent … you’ve never said that to me before.”
