Chapter 75 Could The Harper Family's Daughte...

Alec lowered read, lost in thought. Just then, a possibility crept into his mind, one that sent a chill down his spine

"Do you think it's possible that Brenna is the Harper family's lost daughter? Her biological parents' last name is Harper, isn't it?" he curiously asked.

Before Ruby could respond, Isabella slid onto the sofa beside him and said, "Dad, that's impossible! Didn't they say Brenna's biological parents were from some remote village? They're poor! Her mom's a teacher, her dad's a farmer, and she has an unde who's bedridden. But the Harper family we are talking about now is one of the most powerful and wealthy families in Shirie. If Brenna was really their daughter, why didn't they send someone to bring her back when she left our family?"

Disdain flickered across Ruby's face. She quickly nodded in agreement and said, "Exactly! How could Brenna be that lucky? There's no way she's related to that Harper family. You are overthinking the matter."

A heavy silence settled over the room. No one spoke, but the same thought lingered in everyone's mind. Still, Brenna's real last name was Harper. What were the chances of that being a coincidence?

Could it really be true? Was Brenna the daughter of the Harper family?

The thought weighed heavily on Alec's mind. After a long pause, he lifted his gaze to his wife and daughter and said, "Buy some decent clothes. We will go to the Harper estate to attend the banquet. I'll see if we can build a good relationship with them and if they're willing to throw us a helping hand. Even if our company ends up being their subcontractor, it's better than having no business at all."

Ruby's eyes sparkled with excitement, and Isabella's face lit up with a smile. A few moments later, the latter cautiously asked, "Dad, how much should Mom and I spend on the clothes? The Harper family is hosting such a lavish return banquet for their daughter. All of Shire's elite will be there. We can't show up in plain outfits and risk being looked down on."

Alec nodded in agreement. Making an impression was worth the expense, especially when it could benefit their family's business.

He said, "There's no time for custom orders. Just pick something from a reputable brand. I'll give you a million."

Isabella and Ruby exchanged delighted looks. Their excitement made them forget the coincidence of Brenna having the Harper name.
