Chapter 247:
She let her eyes drift over the sleek, high-end interior of the car, a small smirk creeping across her face. “My mother ordered this red beauty for Brenna a while ago. But I snatched it from her. It feels incredibly satisfying,” she said.
Sylvie scoffed on the other end of the line, fanning the flames. “You’re way too easily pleased. Didn’t you say your mom bought it for her biological daughter and didn’t even bother getting you one? Why are you so pleased now anyway?” she said.
Rosie’s smile vanished. Her face clouded over. She’d long noticed how Giselle and Shepard openly favored Brenna. The warmth she had once felt for Giselle had cooled into bitterness. Now, she considered her no different than any other elder in the Harper family. If it weren’t for the fear of losing her stake in the Harper Group, she would have left the Harper family long ago.
She muttered bitterly, “That’s exactly why I took it from Brenna. Why is she so damn lucky? She has parents who actually care about her, and even Ethan dotes on her. It’s just not fair. Whatever she has, I’ll take it from her p>
Sylvie said, “I’ll help you! Where are you? I want to see your fancy new ride p>
Rosie finally felt somewhat better. “I’ll go to your place and pick you up,” she said.
She then hung up, her foot pressing harder on the gas as she thought about scheming with Sylvie on how to deal with Brenna.
The road was empty, so she pressed the accelerator. As she approached a red light, she instinctively tapped the brakes. However, the car didn’t slow down.
Her heart skipped a beat as she muttered nervously, “How could a brand-new car break down so soon? This car costs ten million dollars p>
Panic surged as she pressed harder on the brakes, silently hoping nothing would go wrong. But the car didn’t stop.

The car hurtled toward the vehicle ahead, and Rosie squeezed her eyes shut, bracing for the inevitable crash.
She knew that at this speed, crashing into the car in front could be fatal.
What baffled her was how a ten-million-dollar car could suffer brake failure like this.
Cars like this usually undergo rigorous safety testing before leaving the factory, and Harper Group’s vehicles had a reputation for top-tier safety. Something like this just shouldn’t happen.
In that split second, a whirlwind of thoughts raced through Rosie’s mind. Maybe Giselle had rushed the car’s delivery, skipping some essential safety checks.
What terrible luck. If she had known this would happen, she never would have fought Brenna for this car in the first place. A deafening bang rang out as the airbags deployed all around her.
Dazed and disoriented, she heard a series of crashes as the impact triggered a chain reaction of collisions. Cars on both sides became part of the wreckage, over a dozen vehicles tangled in the pile-up. The road was now a chaotic mess of wrecked cars.
