Beatrice Donovan froze for a moment. Just as she was about to refuse, she heard Arabella Donovan exclaim with relief.
'Good thing I remembered Beatrice was in Brynn while I was having everything packed. I bought an extra pair of jade-green earrings just for her. Otherwise, I really wouldn't have known what to give her.'
Though called earrings, they were actually a pair of simple, elegant studs. Considering Beatrice Donovan's profession, these studs were the most understated and discreet pieces in the entire jewelry collection.
Beatrice Donovan was touched. Knowing they were bought especially for her, she no longer tried to refuse.
"Thank you."
Just as Beatrice was about to take the bag, Arabella seemed to remember something and suddenly pulled it back. She took out the contents, then clasped the two studs in her hands and closed her eyes as if meditating.
