Chapter 926
926:
Colden glared at Brenna, then looked at his bodyguards, who had just recovered from the fight earlier. He believed they could easily handle a young woman like Brenna.
At Colden’s signal, the bodyguards closed in, surrounding Brenna and Thiago.
“Kneel and apologize to us, or you’ll die here tonight,” Colden said. It finally clicked for Brenna—Tina had clearly inherited her foolishness from her father.
“Do you truly think you can harm me without fearing retribution from both the Harper family and Ethan?” Brenna said, unfazed. “Mr. Russell, if you are upset with Judy, confront her directly. Don’t take it out on me. Do you think I’m an easy target?”
With a cold tone, Thiago added, “Mr. Russell, Judy humiliated you, and now you want to take it out on us to feel better?”
“Dad.” Stepping forward with composure, Davin addressed his father. “Miss Harper has nothing to do with what happened. Let her go.”
Lowering his voice, Davin leaned in closer, urgency in his tone. “Dealing with her is simple, but that will only offend the Harper family and Ethan. We can’t afford to do that.”
A heavy silence fell as Colden’s expression darkened. Davin’s logic was sound, and he knew it better than anyone. Swallowing the sting of defeat, Colden remained silent.
Today had dealt him a bitter lesson in humiliation.
Thiago moved to Brenna’s side and quietly guided her toward the exit. Watching Tina struggle to her feet with the help of the bodyguards, Colden’s irritation boiled over. “Did you not already get your chance to leave earlier? Why are you still hanging around?”
Tina faltered, unable to form an answer. Anger churned inside her. She had plotted to humiliate Brenna in front of everyone. She had wanted to strip Brenna naked, take photos of her body, and post them online, making Ethan beg her to take them down. But nothing had gone as planned; Judy’s arrival had ruined everything.
With her face throbbing and pain shooting through every bone, Tina could barely open her mouth. She felt utterly aggrieved.
Davin reached out to calm Colden’s temper. “Dad, give her a break. She’s in pretty bad shape now. Let me get her to the hospital first.”

At the hospital, Rosie hurried into Isabella’s room.
Inside, Ruby sat by Isabella’s bedside, gently holding a cold pack to the swelling on her cheek. “That bitch! Look what she did to your face. If I ever see her again, I will make her pay!”
Rosie’s heart skipped at the sight of Isabella’s battered face. Judy and her bodyguards had clearly shown no mercy.
