Chapter 962
“Isn’t it enough?” Yuri didn’t think he was being stingy. “In thirty years, have I ever
shortchanged her financially?”
Three hundred million-a fortune many could toil their entire lives without amassing-was effortlessly handed to Saskia, and she’s discontent with it?
Greed knows no bounds.
Leila wanted to retort; why should Brittany get his entire fortune?
After the Brandts left, Holden circled back to the private dining room and caught the tail
end of the conversation, his brow furrowing slightly.
Yuri had no desire to argue with Leila. “If you think I’ve wronged Saskia, feel free to prepare a separate dowry for her.”
With that, Yuri strode away.
Brittany and Isaac also lost interest in staying any longer and excused themselves to leave.
Leila’s face turned stormy. “Look at your father, throwing money at Brittany, and penny-pinching when it comes to Saskia!”
Holden didn’t see the issue. “Bri is a Lynette by blood; it’s her birthright. I’ve prepared a lot for Saskia, and it won’t be something to sniff at.”
Leila was still not satisfied. “Let it be. When the time comes, I’ll add to it.”
She had her own substantial savings over the years, and Saskia was her only daughter-spending on her was worth every penny.
Saskia also felt that Yuri was being miserly. All the best things were reserved for Brittany, and she was left with the scraps. It felt like a slap to her face. Outwardly compliant and gentle, she simmered with resentment.
It wasn’t until they returned to the Lynette Mansion that Holden talked to Saskia. “Don’t worry about the wedding gift. I’ve got some sayings set aside for you.”
Saskia bit her lip. “How much can you give me?”
The wedding gift was a measure of her family’s regard for her, and crucial for her standing after marriage.
The Brandts agreed to the union largely due to the Lynette’s influence, and Yuri’s meager wedding gift was an insult to her.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you suffer any slights.”

Holden had done the math; he could come up with two hundred million for Saskia.
“Saskia, the Lynettes have been good to us. Don’t let any improper thoughts take hold.”
Flushed with indignation, Saskia dared not confront her brother. “Alright.”
After Holden left, Saskia smashed her phone in a fit of jealousy, her beautiful face contorted with envy.
The wedding was settled, skipping the engagement. The date was set for the end of the month, going straight to the wedding ceremony.
Saskia quickly immersed herself in the wedding preparations.
Brittany closed several big deals, and Mrs. Hartman wore the jewelry she designed to a state banquet. Overnight, the buzz around Bri-jeweled Studio skyrocketed. Brittany’s
name was thrust into the limelight.
Having learned from past experiences, Brittany was immune to the sudden surge of attention. However, her success in Imperial City didn’t go unnoticed.
In just a few years, her brand had crossed borders and become one of the hottest jewelry names in A country, a testament to her formidable talent.
Brittany’s rise to fame meant that orders for Bri-jeweled Studio soared.
Ysabel was swamped and half-jokingly complained to Brittany. “Is this what they call ‘suffering from success’?”
Brittany was equally overwhelmed. “Ysabel, stop teasing.”
“You should’ve stayed in Craneville,” Ysabel suggested as she poured her a cupc
“Do you have any idea how much work we have since you became a hit?”
Ysabel secretly wished Brittany would settle down in Craneville.
Brittany simply smiled in response.
“You’re not planning to stay in Craneville for good? Will the Lynettes let you go?”
Yuri had left everything to Brittany; the Lynettes were unlikely to let her leave without a fuss
“I haven’t discussed it with the Lynettes yet.”
With the New Year approaching, Yuri was too busy with both work and Saskia’s wedding. Brittany felt it wasn’t the right time to bring up moving back to Imperial City.
She figured, after the New Year, then she would return to Imperial City.
