"Gu," Stella Grant almost called out Ella Grant's full name, quickly correcting herself, "Sister, what are you doing here?"
Wasn't she out shopping with Oliver Grant?
Surely they hadn't ended up here, right?
Stella didn't even need to look around; just a quick roll of her eyes revealed Oliver Grant's familiar icy expression. She had guessed correctly.
"Big Brother, did you bring Sister here to shop for clothes?"
"What a coincidence, Third Brother is here too! We can all shop together."
As Stella spoke, she reached for Ella's hand, trying to feign affection. "Sister, this store has great quality clothes. I really like it. Since it's your first time here, you might not be familiar with the place. I can show you around. Buy whatever you like! Big Brother won't mind if you get a lot; after all, he's just your ATM."
Ella Grant let out a cold laugh, not giving Stella a chance to grab her hand.
This woman wasn't stupid. It seemed she wanted to help, but in reality, she was mocking her for being a country bumpkin, using Oliver just to get him to pay. Ella really wanted to give her a thumbs up for that!

Even though he wasn't very close to his sister, she was still family, and he couldn't let her look so drab. Besides, Ella was beautiful, and Leo was more than happy to buy her clothes.
"Just a little longer! I haven't shown you the clothes yet. Let me help you look fabulous!"
Ella Grant was actually willing to talk to him, which made Leo very happy.
Meanwhile, Oliver Grant's expression darkened when he heard Ella all out "Big Brother." Why didn't she call him instead?
Stella Grant was feeling even more frustrated. Leo Grant had high standards and looked down on her; she was well aware of that. But now, with Ella Grant's arrival, her brother was treating her with newfound respect, and even their second brother was willing to take her out shopping. That was something others could only
