Chapter 67 I Don't Need Evidence To Prove This

ved Rosie's dramatic shift in behavior. Rosie had abandoned her usual fiery tantrums for a more subdued, victim-like performance today.

Rosie's intent was clear: she aimed to elicit Ernst's sympathy.

After her act, Rosie, hiding her true satisfaction, awaited Brenna's anticipated defensive outburst with a sorrowful gaze.

After a brief pause, Brenna asked, "Are you done talking?"

Rosie was caught off guard. Instead of the expected frantic defense, Brenna remained composed, which wasn't what she had expected.

Brenna said, “Unless you can substantiate your claims of plagiarism or copying, I'll be leaving now. I need to hang a couple of oil paintings I recently acquired in my room."

Rosie was visibly flustered. Brenna demanding evidence was not part of her plan; Brenna was supposed to be vehemently proving she was the person who had created those designs.

How had the matter come to this?

Weakly, Rosie turned to Ernst, saying, "Look at her, Ernst. She's so arrogant, asking me for proof. Isn't it evident? She's so young-how could she possibly have such advanced design skills? I don't need evidence to prove this."

Ernst felt overwhelmed by Rosie's habitual troublemaking, his head aching. However, his criticism was directed not at Rosie but at Brenna's arrogance. He said, "Brenna, why so confrontational? Just provide the evidence if Rosie requests it. That would prove your talent and put this matter to rest, wouldn't it?" Dalton's temper flared as he raised his voice. "Ernst, this isn't just! Brenna shouldn't have to prove that. I think you are deliberately making things difficult for her. The burden of proof should fall on the accuser. Otherwise, she will have to spend her time proving herself whenever someone questions her."
