"How dare she crash your car?" Clara fumed, her voice rising with anger. "I'll sue her for this!"
"No, Mother, don't," Briena interjected quickly, trying to calm her down. "We can use this opportunity to negotiate with her—convince her to withdraw the complaint and free my fans who were held back after attacking her."
Sephina nodded thoughtfully. "Let her off this time. We'll deal with her in a different way."
Just then, a servant entered and informed them that Amelia and Ivan had arrived to visit Briena.
Clara leaned in and whispered urgently to her sister, "Briena, keep up the good act, alright? This is a chance to show Ivan that Natalie was never the right choice for him."
Sephina's cold voice cut through the room, full of authority. "And he should regret everything he did to you. If he doesn't start taking you seriously, we'll break off this engagement."
