Chapter 331
331:
Brenna was very angry. “It’s no surprise he has been taken advantage of; he is surrounded by foolish people like you.”
Her voice turned cold. “You were aware of that agreement he signed, weren’t you?”
Sabine’s face turned pale as unease swept over her. She had, after all, been the one to push Ernst to sign that agreement.
“Ernst’s current situation is partly your doing,” Brenna said.
With a hardened gaze, Sabine admitted, “Yes, I was aware of the agreement and supported Ernst signing it because I believe you are not fit to lead the Harper Group! Ernst asked for my collaboration with you today, but I intentionally overlooked it. I even rigged the projector to ruin your image with a compromising photo, but unfortunately, it failed to display.”
A trace of bitterness tinged her voice. “You’ve got some luck on your side! But don’t think I will let you off easily. You’ve tarnished Ernst’s name, and I swear I’ll make you pay for it.”
Without a word, Brenna held up her phone, showing Sabine the ongoing recording of their conversation.
In a desperate attempt, Sabine lunged to grab the phone from Brenna. However, Brenna skillfully avoided her grasp and swiftly pinned her against the elevator wall.
Just then, the elevator chimed, and its doors slid open to reveal two police officers who stepped inside and immediately handcuffed Sabine. Panic gripped Sabine as she exclaimed, “Brenna, this is low, even for you! Calling the cops ahead of time for—”
“Something so trivial? How petty can you be? I’ve apologized to you already. You can’t just refuse to forgive me.”
Brenna watched coldly as the officers escorted Sabine out. Afterward, she stepped out of the elevator and walked toward the chairman’s office.
At the hospital, Ernst stormed into Rosie’s room, his eyes blazing with fury.

Caught off guard, Sylvie and Vivian exchanged anxious looks, turning their attention to Rosie.
Upon seeing Ernst’s enraged demeanor, Rosie instantly grasped the gravity of the situation. She said, “Ernst, please, let me explain—”
But before Rosie could finish speaking, Ernst’s hand struck her face repeatedly. His anger remained intense as he struggled to regain his composure.
Watching the scene unfold, Sylvie and Vivian were horrified, seeing a side of Ernst they had never imagined possible. To them, Ernst had always been the gentle brother to Rosie, but today, he was different.
Ernst had intentionally lingered by the door, eavesdropping for a while before entering. He had overheard Sylvie and Vivian plotting with Rosie on how to deal with Brenna next.
His hand clenched tightly around the doorknob as he used all his strength to keep his anger in check.
Now, he glared at Sylvie and Vivian with such intensity that it seemed like he might rip them apart. Terrified, they huddled together, fearfully watching him, afraid he might lash out physically. They stepped back a couple of paces, trying to keep a safe distance from him.
