Chapter 130 Do You Have Any Evidence

Brenna flung the door open without warning and called Giselle out of the master bedroom.

"What happened?" Giselle naked, noticing the siblings looked upset as if they had just had a heated argument

She fixed a stern look on her son, her voice sharp with disapproval. "Is this how you act like a big brother? How dare you bully your sister like this? She just got home, and you are already making her uncomfortable your sour expression!"

Ernst was exasperated by Brenna's habit of running to their parents, making it seem like he had bullied her Although angry, he knew better than to lash out at his mother. With a deep breath, he steadied himself and explained what had happened with Rosie.

Giselle's face shifted from sternness to genuine concern as she listened. "A car accident? Was it serious?

Rosie okay?"

Ernst replied, "Thankfully, the car's safety systems did their job, but the brakes failed. It caused a pile-up We will probably have to pay for the damages, but she's okay, Mom. Don't worry."

Giselle nodded with a peculiar expression. Then, she went back to her bedroom to call Rosie.

Rosie was in tears. Giselle spent a long time comforting her and asking what had happened before finally ending the call.

When she returned, she looked at Ernst sternly and asked, "What makes you think Brenna had something to do with the brakes? That's a heavy accusation. Do you have any evidence?"

Ernst scoffed, his expression making it clear he thought the answer was obvious. "Mom, do I even need to spell it out? Brenna is the only one in this family who can't stand Rosie. Who else would go to such lengths to hurt her? Not long ago, someone shredded Rosie's clothes, and we never figured out who did it. Now, Rosie has been in a car accident. I don't even want to imagine what might come next. Don't you think this is a serious matter? Giselle let out a displeased huff. "What kind of nonsense are you spouting? How can you accuse Brenna without a shred of proof? And as for today's accident-the car was delivered straight from the company. It was perfectly fine on the way here. So how did it suddenly malfunction the moment Rosie got behind the wheel?" Ernst jabbed a finger in Brenna's direction. "She tampered with the brakes! She has studied mechanics and knows cars inside and out. Pulling something like this would be child's play for her," he said.
