Chapter 742:
“Alright,” Brenna said, starting to eat while letting her gaze drift toward Isabella. “So... Is your father still causing
problems for you?”
Isabella scoffed. “Nope. The security in our residential area has kept him out. He can’t even get past the front
gate.”
Just mentioning Alec stirred anger in her.
She continued, “When you were still with the Barrett family, what was he like? Because when | first returned to
the Barrett family, he had at least sdignity. Now he’s just... shameless.”
That made Brenna’s brows lift with interest. “Oh, he was already a handful back then. Used to rip apart every
design | submitted, saying the parts weren't flashy enough to make him real money. Every single night, he'd
badgerfor more drafts. If his company wasn’t getting orders, it was my fault. If profit margins dipped, he
blamed the materials | chose. No matter what | did, it was never good enough for him.”
Isabella said, “So he’s always been so unbearable. | thought the bankruptcy flipped a switch in him. Honestly, he
deserves his current predicament. It’s karma, if you ask me.”
After a pause, she continued, “You won't even believe what he did after going bankrupt. The first thing he did

without a shred of hesitation. Then, he threw her, my brother, andout onto the street. How could he have
done something like that?”
She narrowed her eyes. “Later, | met Denis, and life improved for me, my brother, and my mother. Meanwhile,

Comes knocking on our door, begging for money, like it's our responsibility to support him. No wonder when he
went crawling to you after everything fell apart, you slammed the door in his face.”
A soft laugh slipped from Brenna. “Not surprising at all. He's got bottomless ambition and zero skill to back it
up.”
Isabella nodded. “Exactly. What did | do to end up with a father like that?”
Brenna glanced at Isabella, knowing that Alec wasn’t the only problem; his son and his wife were no better than
him. The Barrett family was full of heartless individuals.
