Chapter 73 Forgive Her

if they had been alone, Brenna would have put Rosie in her place without hesitation. But with the Harper family watching-especially Uncle Ableson's side of the family-she had no choice but to accept Rosie's apology for the sake of appearances, even if she had no intention of truly forgiving her.

With obvious reluctance, Brenna helped Rosie to her feet, though she had no desire to pretend she liked someone she clearly despised. She never felt the need to please others, nor did she care about their opinions

about her.

With a sharp edge to her voice, Brenna said, "Enough with the act. You loathed me just moments ago, and now, you're crying in front of me like this to ask for my forgiveness? What's the point? Fine, I forgive you."

The words lacked sincerity, spoken as if someone had forced her hand.

The Harper family noticed her unwillingness, yet no one criticized her for it.

Rosie felt humiliated. It was clear Brenna had no fondness for her, but there was nothing she could do about it.

She turned to Ernst, hoping for support. Though Ernst disapproved of Rosie's manipulative ways, he wasn't pleased with Brenna's unwillingness to let the matter go, either.

“Brenna, don't be too harsh. Rosie has already apologized. Must you keep up this attitude?" he said.

Dalton, lounging nearby, scoffed, "After everything Rosie put Brenna through, you think a few tears and an apology should erase it all? Brenna was nearly pushed out of her own family. You saw how the other branches of the Harper family treated her today. She has endured more than enough-shouldn't she be allowed to be displeased with the matter? Why are you forcing her to let the matter go?"
