Chapter 467
Chapter 467:
Yelena was unprepared for Callum’s version of a “surprise” being so extravagant.
She found herself torn between delight and feeling overwhelmed by the gesture.
“Come over here, Yelena, and see if there’s anything to your liking,” Callum said with a warm, inviting smile.
Earlier, Callum had been visibly upset that his beloved daughter had been slighted, but the arrival of the clothes seemed to have brightened his spirits.
Callum, known as Eighfast’s wealthiest man, was determined that his daughter would lack for nothing.
Callum would go as far as fetching the stars from the sky if Yelena desired them, not just these clothes.
Surprised by the sudden appearance of her own designs in her home, Yelena’s face betrayed a hint of amusement.
She tried to meet Brody’s eyes, but he looked away, clearly embarrassed.
Brody then said to Callum, “Mr. Harris, the delivery is complete. I should be going unless you need anything else p>
As Callum prepared to settle the remaining payment, Brody hurriedly excused himself, leaving no room for further discussion.
Callum watched him leave, thinking to himself about Brody’s youthful haste and recklessness.
“Dad, this is too much. I can’t possibly wear all these clothes. Maybe we should return some,” Yelena said.
“Out of the question,” Callum responded firmly. “This is how I show my love for you.” He added, “And I’ve arranged for the latest collections to be sent here every season. The Harris family will never be short on fashion p>
Bernice felt as though Callum’s statement had an underlying message for her. Though he had not spoken directly, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.
Although Callum had been lenient due to her age, it was clear she had upset him deeply this time.

Bernice struggled with how to make amends, yet was unsure of what to say or do.
Meanwhile, Bella watched from the sidelines, her face tense with rising anger, as though she was about to burst.
Bella was seething internally. For years, she had been part of the Harris family and had always been treated well, or at least she thought so—until now.
She had regarded Callum and Donna as her own parents, always showing them the utmost respect. But how had they treated her?
Since Yelena’s return, Bella felt her patience steadily dwindling. Why did everything seem to fall into Yelena’s lap, while she was left wanting?
Although not the Harris couple’s daughter by blood, Bella had been with the Harris family long enough for Donna to know her deeply. And now Donna could see Bella’s discontent.
She actually understood the root of Bella’s feelings.
Recently, Callum had focused entirely on Yelena, even going out of his way to buy her so many new clothes, neglecting Bella in the process. Naturally, Bella felt excluded.
Donna approached Callum, tugged at his sleeve, and whispered, “What you’re doing isn’t right p>
Callum paused, puzzled by Donna’s concern. He failed to see the issue with his actions. After Donna elaborated, though, Callum realized his mistake.
He had been so absorbed in Yelena’s situation that he had completely overlooked Bella’s feelings. While his intentions were good, he acknowledged that inadvertently causing hurt was still wrong.
Facing Bella, Callum offered, “Bella, there are so many clothes here. Yelena can’t possibly wear them all. Why don’t you pick out a few for yourself p>
However, Bella struggled to feel genuine excitement. Callum’s offer seemed more like an afterthought than a gesture of care. Bella believed if he had truly considered her feelings, he would have included her from the start, rather than as an addition after Donna’s reminder.
