Chapter 373:
Despite her reluctance and hatred for Rosie, Julia didn’t dare stop her and followed her to the third floor.
When Brenna opened the door, she looked momentarily surprised before asking Julia, “Didn’t I already mention that I didn’t want these dresses? Why are they still being brought up p>
Julia said directly, “Miss Rosie Harper insisted on bringing these up. She even belittled the work of your friend, claiming she is merely a mediocre tailor p>
Julia raised an eyebrow and gave Rosie a sharp look, not backing down.
Rosie, seething with anger, retorted, “How can you say something like that? You’re only a maid p>
Julia was unfazed by Rosie’s outrage. Recalling Rosie’s previous stay in the house, she remembered how Rosie had often demeaned the staff with her harsh words and arrogant demeanor. Even after her departure, she still behaved as though she commanded authority here. It seemed Rosie still hadn’t realized her place.
Julia said, “My true employers are Mr. and Mrs. Harper, the two young masters, and Miss Brenna Harper. Miss Rosie Harper, you are merely a visitor here. You are crossing a line by treating me like I am beneath you p>
Brenna and Ellie couldn’t suppress their laughter, clearly amused by Julia’s candidness.
Brenna laughed lightly and addressed Rosie, saying, “Your manner of speaking really is unique. Nowadays, we strive for equality for everyone. She may be a maid, but she earns her keep by working here; she is not someone beneath you. Perhaps you ought to show a bit more respect p>
Despite her boiling anger, Rosie had to keep her emotions in check; she needed to stay composed for her plan to humiliate Brenna to proceed.
“Stop pretending to be p>
She’s merely a servant. Why defend her? Let’s get to the point. Here are the two dresses I ordered for you. Try them on now,” she said in a commanding tone.

The manager was a bit surprised. She now realized Rosie no longer held any sway in the Harper family and regretted her part in tampering with the dresses.
After all, the potential consequences of offending the Harper family were daunting!
Despite knowing this, she had no option but to adhere to Rosie’s directive since she had accepted her money. Nervously, she presented the dresses.
Brenna glanced at the dresses and said, “No need. Just set them aside.” She didn’t even accept the bags containing the dresses, giving Julia a silent signal.
Julia let out a mocking scoff as she grabbed the two bags, dropping them carelessly onto the floor. She shot a scornful glare at both the manager and Rosie. What difference did it make that they had carried the bags upstairs? Brenna hadn’t even spared them a glance.
Rosie, overwhelmed by frustration, said to Brenna, “I spent a great amount of money on these dresses, and this is how you repay my kind gesture p>
Brenna couldn’t hide the spark of satisfaction dancing in her eyes as she watched Rosie fume. A slow smile curled on her lips as she said, “Remember my welcome-back party? You ordered three dresses for me. And what happened? All three were mysteriously ruined. On such an important occasion, I almost had nothing to wear p>
