Chapter 244
244:
She was certain Brenna was probably on her way upstairs now.
Suddenly, Rosie flung open the door, only to find Brenna standing there with her arms folded, her gaze icy and unyielding. Brenna’s outfit was just as neat as it had been that morning.
A chill ran down Rosie’s spine, and she slammed the door shut with a bang, her fear palpable.
Brenna chuckled disdainfully before turning and walking into her own room.
Rosie’s heart pounded so fiercely she could hear it ringing in her ears. She still couldn’t believe Brenna hadn’t been assaulted, but had instead brutally beaten Jay and his men.
It had to be Thiago’s doing. Brenna was unharmed today because Thiago had been there to protect her. How could someone who looked so fragile be so skilled in combat?
Rosie’s mind kept replaying Brenna’s terrifying stare, and she couldn’t shake the fear that Brenna would come after her with ruthless vengeance.
After her shower, Brenna booted up her laptop and logged into the home security system. She swiftly typed several commands before heading downstairs.
Inside the expansive garage of the Harper family home, seven vehicles of various colors and styles were parked, each unique in its design. Rosie’s favorite stood out—a spotless white car.
Brenna lifted the car’s hood, made a few quick adjustments to the engine, and then closed it before heading back to her bedroom. Having reset the security footage, she finally settled into bed for the night.
On a relaxed Saturday with no studio commitments, Brenna savored the luxury of extra sleep. Giselle quietly entered her room, saw how soundly she was sleeping, and decided to let her rest, remembering how late she had returned the night before.

By eleven in the morning, Brenna finally opened her bedroom door, greeted by the mouthwatering aroma of braised ribs rising from downstairs. She took a deep breath, savoring the scent. “That smells amazing,” she said.
With a spring in her step, she headed downstairs to find Giselle in the middle of cooking. “You woke up just in time,” Giselle said. “I’m nearly done with the braised ribs—it’s my signature dish. I’ve never had the chance to make it for you until today, so you must try it.”
Giselle took off her apron and eagerly guided Brenna outside, where a vibrant red sedan was parked in the yard.
Beside the striking vehicle stood Rosie, clearly captivated as her fingers traced its gleaming surface. This unique shade was clearly a custom choice by the Harper family.
The car boasted a sleek exterior and a chic interior, unmistakably tailored for a feminine touch.
The dashboard and steering wheel were custom-designed, enhancing its appeal to women.
