    Chapter 37 Do You Dare ept My Challenge


    Giselle looked at Brenna with concern. "Rosie and Ernst didn''t act appropriately today I''ll speak with them.ter. It wasn''t fair for them to pressure you into thispetition Winning first ce will be no easy fea even securing a spot in the top ten globally will be an immense challenge But don''t worry I''ll make sure Ernst and Rosie apologize to you. As for the promised shares, I''ll see to it that your father follows through


    Brenna was already familiar with this designpetition-her studio had already signed up to participan


    She said to Giselle, "There''s no need for that. I want to prove myself on my own terms. I don''t want them to


    look down on me."


    Giselle was left with no choice. She could only nod. After all, she couldn''t tell her daughter that she believed she had no chance of winning thepetition


    The next morning, Brenna had just stepped into the dining room when Rosie entered, carrying an invitation She set it down in front of Brenna with an air of arrogance.


    She said, "I have to admit, I didn''t expect you to have so many awards. But in high society, talent alone isn''t enough-you need to be well-rounded. There''s an equestrianpetition happening today. I am inviting you to go. It will broaden your horizons."


    Brenna picked up the invitation, ncing at the elegant design. The event was scheduled for July 15th-today


    "Fine. I''ll make sure to be there on time," she said.


    Rosie''s lips curled into a knowing smile. "You actually dared to agree? Interesting. I look forward to seeing you there. I''ve already signed you up for thepetition "


    Brenna raised a brow. "Isn''t this the finals? Can people still join thepetition now?"


    Rosie''s tone turned condescending as she said, "This is what I meant about yourck of knowledge of high society. Thispetition is organized by a group of wealthy enthusiasts. It has prestige, but it''s not an official international event. For families like ours, we can enter whenever we want."


    So that was how it was? Brenna wasn''t as familiar with these social events.


    Brenna tilted her head slightly. "Are youpeting as well?" she asked.


    She never took Rosie for the athletic type-


    Rosie, however, responded confidently, "Of course. It''s a major social event in high society-why wouldn''t I participate?"

    Chapter 37 Do You Dare ept My Challenge


    After a light breakfast, Brenna stepped outside, where Ethan''s car was already waiting


    After Brenna treated Vincent at the hospital, Ethan personally drove her back


    "There''s a horse race today. Want to go and watch it" he asked Brenna, standing beside his car.


    Brenna nced at him. "You are also going?" she asked.


    She regretted the question the moment she asked it. Horse racing was a staple event among the elite, so of course, than would be there.


    Sure enough, Ethan nodded. "Just going for the fun of it. We can go together," he said.


    Before long, they arrived at the racecourse.


    Thergest racecourse in Shirie spanned over five hundred thousand square meters, boasting top-tier facilities and a 1, 600-meter track. Built by a group of wealthy investors, the ce had cost billions, ensuring only the


    finest amenities.


    Even the basic membership fee started at a million.


    Ethan guided Brenna straight to the VIP section, which was tastefully decorated and stocked with an assortment of refreshments. The service was impable, and a crowd had already gathered by the floor-to-ceiling windows, watching the riders and their horses.


    Some guests were using electronic devices to ce bets on their favoritepetitors,


    Just then, two staff members approached, each handing Brenna and Ethan a tablet.


    Ethan and Brenna leaned in, scrolling through the list ofpetitors on the tablet


    "Just pick whoever catches your eye. Winning or losing doesn''t really matter," Ethan said casually


    Just then, his phone rang. After answering the call, he returned the tablet to the staff member and turned to Brenna. "Something urgent came up. Stay here-I''ll be back soon."


    Brenna nodded. "Okay."


    "Didn''t expect to see you in a ce like this." A sharp, mocking voice echoed from behind Brenna. She turned to find Isabe and Jordy approaching, arms linked, sses of red wine in hand.


    Jordy looked at Brenna''s outfit, clearly noting its high quality.


    He said, "You really move fast, don''t you? Barely three days after leaving the Barrett family, you''ve alreadytched onto a rich man. I don''t understand it-Mr. Mitchell could have any woman he wants. Why would he like someone like you?" Heughed, his voice full of disdain.


    Brenna nced at him, irritated by his jabs. "And yet, despite knowing he likes me, here you are, daring to me like that."


    Jordy''s expression darkened. He pointed at her furiously. "Don''t get ahead of yourself. With your looks, Mr. Mitchell won''t stay interested in you for more than a week. Care to bet on it?" he said.


    Isabe''s bitterness only deepened. The Barrett family had invited Brenna to dinner yesterday, but she hadn''t

    even bothered to answer their call. She acted as if they didn''t matter at all. "Why waste time betting with her?" Isabe scoffed. "Let me tell you-Mr. Mitchell isn''t interested in her. She only got this far because she treated Mr. Mitchell''s grandfather. That''s the only reason he''s being nice to her. He only showed her around here. Didn''t you see him leave just now?"


    Her expression grew smug as she swirled the wine in her ss. "I thought he treated you specially, but I guess it''s nothing impressive after all Brenna, I challenge you to participate in the race. Do you dare ept my challenge?" she said.


    She was certain Brenna didn''t know how to ride a horse, and if Brenna tried, she''d only end up embarrassing -or even injuring-herself.
