Chapter 592: Brenna shot Rosie a warning glance, but Rosie brushed it off, determined to share the story of the incident where Elsa had performed for Amy's birthday.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBrenna felt resigned by Rosie's action. Giselle and Shepard remained largely unmoved, not as angry as Rosie had expected.
"This is not Elsa's fault," Rosie continued. "Brenna really crossed a line. How could she demand that her future mother-in-law perform? Even if Elsa is in the performance business, being ordered around by her future daughter-in-law must have stung. I think that's what set her off. And I haven't heard of Brenna apologizing to her. Honestly, she didn't handle this situation well." Brenna pressed her lips together, showing no intention of defending herself. Shepard's expression darkened, feeling embarrassed by the turn of the conversation. He genuinely sensed Rosie was becoming an outsider, her words aimed more at making them uncomfortable than at addressing the issue.
Giselle shot a glance at Rosie, picking up on the subtle satisfaction in her expression. "I was aware of this long before," Giselle said. “I spoke with Elsa about the matter, but she didn't change her mind. She looks down on our family, thinking we're just a bunch of money-driven businesspeople. She wants a daughter-in-law with a stable government job. This isn't Brenna's fault." Rosie was shocked by how protective Giselle and Shepard were toward Brenna. Even when Brenna was in the wrong, they wouldn't utter a word of criticism.
Rosie said, "Mom, Dad, if Brenna wants to marry Ethan, our family needs to show ssincerity. We should go visit the Mitchell family with gifts and apologize. Otherwise, it'll be nearly impossible for Brenna to secure that marriage." Brenna felt a wave of irritation wash over her. Turning to Rosie, she said sharply, "Do you really think I have to marry Ethan? I already apologized to Elsa face-to-face. She wouldn't accept it and even toldshe had arranged a match for her son with a girl who has a steady government job, someone from a performance troupe linked to the military." It dawned on her that Rosie couldn't stand to see her succeed. The more dire her situation became, the more delight Rosie seemed to take in it.

With your pride, you actually managed that? Even if you did, it must have been insincere. That's why Elsa keeps rejecting you. We should still go as a family and formally apologize to her. Brenna, Ethan is a remarkable man. You shouldn't let him slip through your fingers. Winning him over is the best choice for you, and deep down, you know it." Rosie felt she needed to sway both Shepard and Giselle. "Mom, Dad, what are your thoughts? Financially, we're nowhere near the Mitchell family. If we forge an alliance through marriage, it could bolster our business prospects as well." Yet, her true aim stretched beyond mere finances; it was about elevating her reputation within the Plieca royal family. After all, she could flaunt the fact that her brother-in-law was the wealthiest man in the world.
Deep down, she also craved to see Elsa drive the Harper family into the ground, to humiliate them thoroughly, to tear at their pride until they were stripped of their dignity. She wanted the Harpers to swallow their pride and plead with the Mitchells, begging for the marriage to take place. Even if Brenna did manage to marry Ethan, she would be haunted by Elsa's relentless torment for the rest of her days.
Meanwhile, she believed she would be calling the shots in the royal o'm family in Plieca and Xiving in luxury, NO While the Harpers would have to tiptoe around her. Just thinking about it made her feel triumphant.
