Chapter 142 Confident


    Today, Isabe chose a bold ck suit dress that hugged her curves perfectly. Her striking figure turned tests, drawing the attention of every man who passed by


    Brenna''s eyes narrowed as she observed Isabe. She recalled that at thest wee batque, biels


    figure had been rather modest in terms of her chest.


    Could it be that Isabe had gotten imnts on her chest after the banquet?


    A yful grin tugged at Brenna''s lips as she noticed Isabe''s now noticeablyrger chest.


    In no time at all, Isabe had stolen the spotlight, her figure drawing admiring nces from men and entous


    stares from women.


    Isabe flourished under the spotlight, soaking in the attention.


    Brenna took another look. Isabe''s makeup was impable, and her neck was adorned with a ne that screamed luxury, likely worth a fortune. Given the Barrett family''s rumored financial troubles due to the Harper family''s suppression, Brénna wondered how they managed such extravagance forbe.


    Lately overwhelmed with her own matters, Brenna hadn''t kept track of the Barrett family''s financial troubles She made a mental note to look into their current situationter.


    Noticing Brenna''s gaze, Isabe instinctively crossed her arms over her chest. Her voice was a mix of difort and anger as she asked, "What are you staring at? You haven''t seen such a perfect figure before?*


    However, Brenna''s eyes revealed a hint of admiration that didn''t escape Isabe''s notice. In response, Isabe tilted her head proudly and let out a dismissive scoff. The envy among the women was undeniable, making her pleased with herself.


    She could still recall the embarrassing incident herck of curves had been highlighted at the banquetst time. Determined never to feel that humiliation again, she had sought the most dramatic enhancement the very next


    day.


    Brenna moved closer to Isabe, her voice calm yet cutting. "You''ve had some enhancements, haven''t you?"


    Isabe immediately understood that Brenna was mocking her by asking her that.


    A mix of displeasure and embarrassment bubbled up within Isabe as she replied, her tone defensive, "You are talking nonsense!"


    Her gaze drifted to Brenna''s attire-a sophisticated deep blue sleeveless top draped elegantly over her, paired with a shimmering gold ne that hugged her smooth neck. The pendant looked vaguely familiar to Isabe, though she couldn''t quite ce where she had seen it from. Brenna''s outfit was finished off with a pair of sharp, perfectly tailored trousers, and her wrist was adorned with a delicate bracelet featuring a teardrop pendant, whichplemented her poised demeanor.

    Although Brenna''s outfit had no visiblebels, it exuded a quiet elegance that made Isabe''s branded dothes seem less impressive.


    Isabe''s eyes narrowed as she observed Brenna with aplex mix of disdain and admiration. She inwardry dismissed the value of Brenna''s clothes yet acknowledged their aesthetic appeal.


    Isabe let out a mockingugh and taunted, "Is the Harper family going bankrupt? Can''t even manage to buy


    branded clothes anymore?"


    Brenna replied with a confident smirk, fully aware of her distinctive fashion choice. What Isabe didn''t know was that her outfit was a one-of-a-kind creation by Ellie for the M&G brand, made from rare materials and featuring an exclusive design.


    "Oh, you don''t know what brand of clothes I am wearing then?" Casually, Brenna showcased her wrist, her voice cool and collected. "These pieces are custom- made by M&G-truly one-of-a-kind."


    She gestured towards her pendant, adding, "See? It''s M&G."


    Isabe scoffed in disbelief, "M&G? That sounds like a generic brand you''d find at a street market."


    Unfazed, Brenna said, "It appears you''re just unfamiliar with true quality."


    Isabe''s expression hardened. "How dare you say something like that? Look at yourself, unting no-name clothes while acting all high and mighty. Just because you''re form the Harper family, you think you''re better than me? I heard you entered.the design contest as well. Do you even recognize your own abilities? You produce nothing but average designs for the Barrett family. How could you darepete in such a high-profile event? Aren''t you worried about bringing shame to the Harper family when your work ranksst?"


    Brenna maintained herposure as she calmly responded, "You think your skills are good? I''m curious how you ended up participating in such a high-levelpetition. Your academic background was hardly remarkable, and your portfolio since you graduated has been uninspiring. Are you here merely to embarrass yourself?" With unwavering confidence, Isabe said, "We''ll see who ends up embarrassed. Don''t waste your time worrying about me. Focus on your own ws. If I were in your shoes, I''d stay home to spare the Harper Group any humiliation."


    Brenna could feel a strong sense of certainty in Isabe''s reply, one that felt more like a statement of confidence than just an insult.


    This puzzled her. Why did Isabe exhibit such confidence?


    "Is that so? You seem really sure that you will get an award in thepetition," Brenna said.


    Isabe raised an eyebrow and answered sharply, "I''m just certain I can do better than you."
