    Chapter 106 In Her


    Bedroom


    The servants exchanged puzzled locks after Rosie burst into fury, each of them instinctively shaking their heads


    Rosie was furious as she pointed at the servants, shouting. I''m going to review the security rapes now Any of you found sneaking into my room will be fired immediately! This is a betrayal of the trust the Harper family


    in


    has ced in you!"


    The servants exchanged worried looks, each firmly shaking their heads in denial, puzzled over who would dare jeopardize their job by ruining Rosie''s clothes.


    At the edge of the group, Julia appeared noticeably uneasy, trying to blend into the background to avoid any


    attention


    She then brought a tray of fruit and juice into Brenna''s room.


    Ethan stood in the middle of the room, casually ncing around. His one hand was in his pocket, while the


    other held his phone as he appeared to be responding to a message.


    Julia''s eyes lingered on Ethan, captivated by his striking features and the air of detachment he exuded. Hi standing tall andposed.


    "Mr. Mitchell, your refreshments," Julia announced softly.


    Ithan, without ncing away from his phone, acknowledged with a brief “Thanks“.


    As Julia hesitated at the doorway, Brenna returned, now dressed in a rxed ensemble of a T-shirt and denim


    shorts, her demeanor casual.


    Ethan''s eyes brightened as he took in the sight of Brenna. Even though she was wearing a simple outfit, she


    ?


    looked striking


    "You look great," he said,


    Julia, pausing before exiting, voiced her concern, saying, "Miss Brenna Harper,


    Miss Rosie Harper is checking the


    surveince footage as we speak


    Brenna responded with a calm smile, "No worries; I''ve taken care of it. The


    footage won''t reveal anything Just


    stayposed and avoid drawing attention."


    Julia''s anxiety was evident, her voice tinged with uncertainty as she said, "Are you certain that will work?"


    Despite Brenna''s unassuming appearance, her confidence belied a deeper capability not immediately apparent.


    Ethan nced at Brenna with surprise, then turned to Julia and reassured, "Trust


    in Brenna''s skills. She''s more. tech-savvy than anyone gives her credit for. Even the security staff in mypany might not notice anything"


    Comforted by Ithan''s confidence and aware of his own proficiency in mich matters, plia rted "Then am relieved I will leave now if there''s nothing ales, the end.


    Ithan had ced it together. Although Brenns hadn''t directly of Rosie''s clothes, she was certainly the one arbe


    had ordered it


    But Rosie had brought this upon herself, she didn''t deservet any sympat


    With a low chuckle, Ethan said to Brenna, "Nice work"


    Brenna could tell his tonecked sincerity "Are you mocking me?" she asked


    Brenna calmly sipped her orange juice, her expression unreadable as she waited for Ethan''s response


    Ethan let out a soft chuckle and replied in a soft tone, "Why would I Your approach might have been simple, but it effectively drove her up the wall. If she acts rashly out of anger, you''ve essentially won "


    Acknowledging the simplicity of her tactics, Brenna couldn''t help but smile. The method wasn''t sophisticated. but it did bring her a certain pleasure.


    "Why do I get the feeling you''re not really praising me?" she asked, pulling up the stock market trends on herptop and focusing on the Moreno family''s stocks


    Ethan noticed it and slowly moved closer, sitting beside Brenna. Though he hesitated to sit too near, he found himself edging closer. He breathed in the faint scent of her perfume, which caused his heart to race: He was


    unable to focus on the stock trends anymore..


    His movements became awkward, and his thoughts were scattered-he had no idea what to do next


    Brenna was entirely absorbed in the stock movements. She quickly tapped on her phone, sending a message to


    her studio''s group chat.


    "Everyone, let''s put in some extra hours today. We need to make sure the Moreno family''s stock hits the


    lowest limit tomorrow."


    Ethan identally glimpsed the message and was pulled back to reality. Quietly, he pushed his chair away, creating some space between them.


    He knew that only by keeping his distance could he think clearly. Otherwise, he feared he might act on impulse


    Just then, there was a loud knocking at the door.


    With a slight frown, Brenna rose to answer it, only to be met with Rosie''s incensed expression, with Rachael looming anxiously behind her.


    "Brenna, did you tamper with the surveince footage?" Rosie asked, storming into the room, her eyes darting to Ethan, who seemed deeply engrossed in hisputer work. His suit jacket was draped casually over the bed. Brenna and Ethan seemed like a couple who had been together for years.


    Rosie''s jealousy red when she saw them sofortable in each other''s space Brenna had known Ethan for just a few days, yet he was already here in her bedroom. Brenna was so shameless for seducing Ethan like this!


    Rosie, consumed by envy, contemted dragging Ethan away to ask him what he was thinking. Despite the fact that she had known Ethan for so long, he had never stepped into her bedroom, not once


    Chapter 106 In Her Bedroom


    What kind of trick had Brenna used to make than enter her bedroom willingly? Rosie was seething with anger.


    Brenna responded withposed assurance, "I''ve been at home this morning, and out this afternoon, I had no


    chance to tamper with anything.


    Her voice carried a mocking tone as she continued, "Couldn''t find who ruthed your clothes? Maybe you should consider filing a report to the police, given how expensive your clothes are."
