Everyone froze, including Elena.
She, too, had thought the ‘Celestia's Crown’ was for Sienna. Her emotions went on a rollercoaster ride, and she quickly hurried to follow Ethan.
Confused, she wondered why he would spend such an extravagant amount if the crown wasn’t meant for Sienna.
"It’s for you."
Elena was stunned, speechless. Then, it hit her—was this the affection she had traded her life for?
Had Ethan finally begun to develop feelings for her?
"Huh?"
"You wanted it, didn’t you? You’ve been eyeing it for quite a while. You never even look at things you don’t like."
Ethan knew Elena so well. Her likes and dislikes were always clear, just like how she didn’t like Sienna and would never pretend otherwise in front of him.
Elena’s heart churned with a storm of emotions. All she had ever wanted was a bit of Ethan’s affection, even if it was just out of pity.
"Ethan, aren’t you worried Sienna will be upset?"
"Nah, she won’t be."
The next day, Elena understood why Ethan was so confident that Sienna wouldn’t be upset.
