Chapter 640:
Ernst continued, “Brenna helps us because she is family. So I particularly want to acknowledge Mr. Mitchell. Without his intervention, the Harper Group’s stocks wouldn’t have bounced back so swiftly. Just another day like today, and we’ll see the company fully stabilize. Ethan, this toast is for you p>
Ethan offered a mild smile. “There’s no need for such formality. We’re practically family. I couldn’t possibly sit back and watch the Harper Group struggle p>
One by one, the Harper family members stood, glasses in hand, to toast Ethan, their faces alight with genuine appreciation.
In merely a week, not only had the Harper Group’s stock prices recovered to their pre-crisis levels, but they had also nudged slightly higher.
Over recent weeks, Rosie had engaged an army of online saboteurs to tarnish the reputation of the Harper Group. However, the company’s decisive press conference had cleared the air, rendering her malicious attempts fruitless.
As another week elapsed, Rosie’s legal battle against the Harper Group, accusing them of unlawfully seizing her shares, finally commenced.
Regrettably for her, she lacked credible evidence and stood no real chance of triumphing. Predictably, she lost the lawsuit. Not only did she fail to recover any shares, but she also incurred significant financial losses from her schemes to hire trolls and stir up dissent among minor shareholders.
“Mom,” Brenna called out as she wheeled her suitcase towards Giselle’s bedroom. She rapped on the door gently before entering. “I’m heading out on a business trip for a few days. Could you cover my Tuesday lecture at Shirie University p>
Giselle, still nestled under her covers, responded warmly, “Of course, I’ll handle it. But isn’t it quite early for you to leave now? It’s only six in the morning p>
“My plane takes off at eight,” Brenna said, her voice tinged with urgency. “I was supposed to fly out last week, but Rosie’s legal antics forced a delay. The client is none too pleased about the holdup p>
“Understood, just stay safe. I won’t be able to see you off,” Giselle responded, rising from the bed, a hint of worry etching her features.

“Who’s accompanying you on this trip p>
“Thiago is accompanying me. Don’t worry p>
Descending the stairs, Brenna found the driver poised beside the car, while Thiago was already inside.
Brenna slid into the car, catching the buoyant air around Thiago. “So, have Leif and Tori finally moved out of Ellie’s place?” she inquired, a playful smirk playing on her lips.
Thiago’s grin widened. “Yes, they’ve moved out. I purchased two houses—one for them and another in preparation for Hank’s future marriage. Ellie and I have moved in together. After this business, we will get married. You should come to our wedding p>
Brenna’s venture to Norview unfolded with surprising smoothness. Spencer Kurt, the man behind the invitation, welcomed her with a warm smile and wasted no time bringing up a possible collaboration. He urged her to unwind during her stay and asked for her help in cracking the encrypted files Edward had left behind.
Spencer had nearly devoured the Ward family’s entire operation. He had reaped a fortune from this coup.
