Chapter 51 This Agreement


    Is Fair


    Giselle''s expression turned icy. Rosie''s argument might have sounded reasonable, but she had no doubt that Brenna was her long-lost daughter. She knew that forcing Brenna to take a DNA test and sign a conditional agreement would hurt her.


    "I won''t allow it!" Giselle dered sharply, shoving Rosie aside without hesitation. She had treated Posle like her own daughter for years, yet now, Rosie was trying to kick her real daughter out. That was something she simply couldn''t tolerate.


    Rosie felt a deep sense of anger. She also felt disappointed in Giselle.


    Turning to Shepard, she put on a pitiful act. "Dad, look at Mom! I''m not making things up, but she''s being so


    unreasonable.*


    She then turned to Luther and Tessa, her eyes full of feigned innocence. "Grandpa, Grandma, tell me-am i really in the wrong? All I want is to clear up any doubts about Brenna. Is that a bad thing?"


    Meanwhile, Brenna picked up the agreement, carefully reading through every use. Her expression remainedposed as she finally spoke. “I don''t have an issue with the DNA test. But this agreement-this is a problem. It only penalizes me if I lose the automotive designpetition, but what about you? There''s no consequence if you fail. On top of that, the rewards from the Harper family are only mentioned in your favor. This isn''t a fair


    contract."


    Rosie was well aware that the agreement was biased; she had crafted the terms herself to protect her interests. But for it to even take effect, Brenna had to be a legitimate Harper.


    She smirked, feeling pleased with her clever setup. Brenna had no way around this.


    Rosie said, "Fine. Sign it first; then you''ll do the DNA test. If it turns out you''re really a Harper, I''ll add some better terms for you. If not..."


    Brenna scoffed, mming the table, "Absolutely not! Signing it would mean I ept these conditions. Do you


    take me for a fool?"


    Though she had no issue with the DNA test itself-she had wanted to do it anyway-there was no way she''d agree to such a lopsided deal.


    Brenna said, "Rewrite the terms first. Then I''ll consider signing."


    ,


    Rosie refused to back down. "No. You need to prove you''re a Harper first," she said.


    Ernst sneered, throwing in his own jab, "If you''re not part of this family, you don''t even have the right to


    it."

    Shepard nodded in agreement. "That''s right. We''ll handle


    Bosje''s eyes welled with tears as she looked at them in diabetet "row always called you Mom and bad. How can you turn your backs on me for her?" she exid


    Giselle''s voice was cold and firm. "le are not going to turn our backs on our real daughter. The truth is, we''re not your biological parents, Posie. From now on, don''t call us Mom and Dad, you should call as Uncle and Aunt since that is the reality"


    Utterly disappointed, Luther flung a re at Rosie, "Do as your aunt Giselle says. Change the way you address


    them from now on."


    It was clear to him now that they had spoiled Rosie so much that she had be so arrogant


    Ernst couldn''t take it anymore. He stepped in to defend Rosle, saying, "Rosie lost her parents when she was young, and this is how you treat her?"


    Shepard lost his patience and stared coldly at his eldest son. "Shut up! Did I give you permission to speak? And don''t forget-you''re part of this agreement, too. If Brenna takes first ce, you will lose your position as the Vice President of the Harper Group,"


    Ernst scoffed, "She''s not capable of winning first ce."


    Shepard''s anger only grew. "You''d rather tear down your own sister than acknowledge her talent? A leader who judges with bias and refuses to be rational isn''t fit to run the Harper Group. I don''t think you deserve to be the Vice President of thepany."


    Turning to Giselle, he said, "Bring me myputer. I''ll draft this agreement myself."


    He had already thought of the crucial terms in his head. The moment Giselle handed him theptop, his fingers moved swiftly across the keyboard, and within half an hour, a fair agreement wasplete.


    The document clearly defined the roles and responsibilities of all three parties, along with the consequences of


    losing the wager.


    Once it was printed, Brenna carefully reviewed it before nodding, "Mom, Dad, this agreement is fair. I''ll sign it." Giselle, overjoyed, turned to her husband. "Honey, did you hear that? She called us Mom and Dad."


    Shepard''s face softened with a smile as he nodded. "Yes. And once the paternity results confirm everything, I''ll allocate Brenna an extra share of thepany. We have to make up for all the years we lost."


    Ernst''s mood turned sour as he read the agreement, his hands shaking slightly. "Mom, Dad, why are you stripping me of all my shares if I lose the bet?"


    Shepard let out a cold snort. "That''s the cost of your reckless actions. Why should Brenna risk losing everyt if she doesn''t win, while you walk away unscathed? This needs to be fair."
