?Chapter 589:


    Brenna couldn’tprehend what Rosie had said or done to avoid punishment. After all, Brenna had saved the King of Plieca; by all rights, Rosie should have been executed for her malice. So how had she returned unscathed?


    Could it be that Rosie had provided the Plieca royal family with some crucial information?


    Fixing Rosie with a cold stare, Brenna asked, “Did you strike a deal with the royal family in Plieca?”


    Rosie couldn’t help but apud. “Bingo. You caught on faster than I thought. I used to underestimate you, Brenna. But don’t think you’ll always be so lucky. Let’s wait and see.”


    She could never forget the night Edward had almost tortured her to death in bed. The memory made her stomach churn, leaving a bitter taste she couldn’t shake.


    Yet it hadn’t been entirely in vain. After Edward had passed out from sheer exhaustion, she had scrambled to search the room and stumbled upon a mysterious sh drive.


    When the Plieca military captured her, she used that sh drive as a bargaining chip for her freedom.


    She had no idea what secrets it contained, but whatever was on it had clearly shaken both the military and the royal family. After reviewing its contents, they had epted her conditions. Not only did they set her free, but they also allowed her to be a member of the royal family. Even though she was granted only a minor title, it was still a significant rise in status.


    Now, Rosie began to peel back theyers of Brenna’s nature, gaining a clearer understanding of her character. Brenna was like a closed book, her reserved demeanor steering her away from engaging in conversation or revealing her innermost thoughts. She often kept her feelings tucked away, rarely voicingints to her family.


    Rosie felt a quiet confidence that Brenna would treat the incident in Plieca like a secret, not wanting to mention it to the Harpers. As long as she didn’t bring it up, Brenna would never take the initiative to speak of it.

    Rosie couldn’t help but feel triumphant because Brenna’s personality was working to her advantage. Brenna would never have guessed that she had told the King of Plieca that she had saved Brenna and Ethan by pretending to bargain with Edward.


    With that USB drive in her hand, the royal family of Plieca had believed her.


    ording to her fabricated ount, when she had approached Edward, she had sensed something sinister brewing within his family and had gone to him to gather vital intelligence. Through this clever ruse, she had transformed herself into a hero.


    Rosie brimmed with pride over her masterful strategy.


    Though the journey had been fraught with twists and turns, and she had endured a measure of humiliation, she had finally wed her way to a higher social standing.


    “You’d best be on your guard from now on. As for the embarrassment you heaped onto me in Plieca, Brenna, mark my words—you will pay for it. Luck won’t always be on your side. The moment I find my chance, I’ll make sure to settle the score with you,” Rosie said.


    She no longer felt the need to hide her true intentions.


    Observing Rosie’s smug demeanor, Brenna couldn’t shake a bold suspicion. “Are you going to be Maxley’s wife?” she asked.
