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.
