Chapter 108 You Have To Help Me

Ethan, with curiosity sparkling in his eyes, asked, "What's this agreement about?"

As he observed Brenna, Ethan's thoughts drifted to the harsh treatment she endured from the Harper family, and his face hardened into a cold expression.

Casting a glance at Ernst and Dalton, he could tell the brothers were visibly uncomfortable.

With a serious tone, he asked Brenna, "What's going on? I need to know."

The look in his eyes, full of concern, gave Brenna strength. It reassured her, showing that he was fully behind her and easing her worries.

Brenna briefly explained the bet they had made, and Ethan's face tightened as he understood that Rosie and Ernst had plotted against Brenna, who had just come back to the Harper family and was in a vulnerable state, while the rest of the Harper family stood by and did nothing.

A newfound resolve to marry Brenna stirred within him. He was eager to shield her from further misery in the Harper family.

Brenna said, “I've handed in my project. Now, it's just a matter of waiting for the judges' decision."

Suddenly, Ethan grasped her hand, saying "Marry me now. With me by your side, you need not fret over this bet. Whether you win or lose, you'll always find a home to live in."

Dalton scoffed, interjecting, "Ethan, Brenna has me, her elder brother, to look out for her. She has just returned to our family-there's no need for her to rush into marriage."
