Chapter 103:
Brenna’s patience thinned. She shot her a sharp look and corrected her, saying, “Did you see me seducing him? He’s the one clinging to me p>
A thought crossed Brenna’s mind, and a soft chuckle escaped her lips. The mockery in her eyes was unmistakable. In a jeering tone, she said, “I see. He has never treated you the way he treats me, has he? You are jealous p>
She laughed again and continued, her tone light but cutting, “Guess men don’t just pick women based on family background after all. Seems like you’re not as impressive as you think p>
Rosie’s face twisted with anger. She glared at Brenna and snapped, “What’s that supposed to mean? Are you insulting me p>
Brenna arched a brow, as if she had just confirmed something. “It’s not an insult. It’s a fact. You’ve been clinging to Ethan, but he barely acknowledges you. You keep coming after me because of him. That just proves your real goal in life is to secure a wealthy husband. Tell me I’m wrong p>
Rosie stiffened, caught off guard by Brenna’s words. Brenna had peeled back her intentions like an open book. Flustered, she exclaimed, “Stop making this about me! As if you’re any different p>
With that, Rosie spun on her heel and turned to leave, slamming the door behind her.
Brenna barely spared her a glance. She opened her laptop, and her eyes flicked back to her design drafts. Under her breath, she muttered, “All she ever thinks about is men. Pathetic p>
Her lips curled in disdain. Rosie had wealth, privilege, and every opportunity at her fingertips, yet no ambition. What a waste.
Meanwhile, Rosie stormed into her room, seething. She grabbed a pillow and hurled it onto the bed. “She dares to call me obsessed with men? As if she isn’t? Before she even became part of the Harper family, she was already using Ethan to protect her. She’s nothing but a whore!” The more she thought about how Ethan always defended Brenna, the more her jealousy burned.

Why? What made Brenna so special? Why had Ethan never treated her that way?
She couldn’t understand it.
Just then, a thought struck her. If Brenna wasn’t a Harper, would Ethan still care about her?
No. He would probably abandon her in an instant, thinking she wasn’t good enough for him. Rosie muttered, “Just wait, Brenna. You’ll be kicked out of the Harper family soon enough p>
She snatched up her phone, her expression dark as she dialed a number. Her grip tightened around the device as she thought of a way to win over Giselle and Shepard again. She had spent years calling them Mom and Dad and treating them like her real parents. Now that Brenna was back, was she just supposed to stop calling them that? No way.
