Chapter 613:

Brenna shot Rosie a sharp look. Was Rosie really this stupid or just putting on an act? After her attempt to have Ethan killed in Plieca, did she truly have the gall to ask for his help? Had she lost her mind?

Yet, as Brenna reconsidered, perhaps Rosie was throwing a test balloon into the air. Though their wedding hadn’t yet taken place, news of Rosie’s impending marriage to Maxley had already swept through Shirie like wildfire. She had even flaunted the official royal endorsement from Plieca on her social media, making it clear why she was so arrogant.

Rosie scrutinized Ethan, searching for clues to determine whether he valued the potential alliance with Plieca’s royal family more than he resented her past treachery.

She had made up her mind. If Ethan held no grudges, she would join forces with him against the Harper family.

So why was it Brenna who received his gift now?

This meant something significant.

Rosie said, “So, Ethan, what’s your take on this p>

She believed Ethan was likely on Brenna’s side. Hoping to sway him, she added, “If you’re willing to support me, the royal family of Plieca will significantly bolster its cooperation with you. Isn’t that something worth considering?” She was testing his attitude.

After all, what was love when weighed against self-interest?

Ethan glanced at Brenna. Her expression remained unchanged, as if the entire situation were irrelevant to her and the Harper Group.

“I’m on Brenna’s side,” Ethan said.

Rosie’s disappointment was palpable, but she had anticipated this outcome. What she said today was merely the first step in her strategy.

“All right, I understand.” Rosie rose gracefully with Maxley. “I won’t disturb you further p>

As soon as Rosie and Maxley left, Brenna scoffed, “What does Maxley see in her p>
