Rosie's expression soured in an instant. She turned to Ethan and said, "han, a in steady dating someone else. That alone should tell you she doesn't care about you. So why on earth and marry her? I just saw them drinking together and getting all cozy. They made it through balls of we already. Just think about it-if they keep going, they will get drunk in no tWhom we coil rag next?" She studied Ethan closely, trying to gauge his reaction, unwilling to believe he would tolerate what she we about to say next. She continued, "You really need to open your eyes Erenna known sleckel dends one's judgment, and yet she is still drinking with another man. She must have already set this whole thing up. They could be planning to go to a hotel soon. Why would you ever want to get engaged to someone The Brenna?" Brenna met Rosie's gaze without flinching, a calm expression on her face Serrerly, she couldn't help but admire Rosie's quick imagination. In the blink of an eye, she had spun a tale about her and Thing mong in bed together.

She noticed that Ethan appeared indifferent, his face unreadable, leaving her unsure whether he believed Rosie's accusations.

"You really have a talent for imagining things. Maybe you should try writing ," Brenna said to Rosie Her irritation was through the roof. Rosie's tactic was disgusting, and it grated on her nerves. If they had been alo she would have taught Rosie a lesson by now.

Rosie shot Brenna a fierce glare, hand pressed against her cheek. The slap still burned painfully, a lingering reminder that Brenna hadn't held back If Ethan hadn't walked in, Rosie would have struck back already. She gave Brenna a look that could kill and silently vowed to have someone beat her up for the slap.

Ethan radiated a chilling aura, completely ignoring Rosie's words. Yet, beneath his detached exterior, a deep concern gnawed at him regarding Brenna and Thiago's relationship.

Ethan said, "Brenna, I'm not here to dictate who you have dinner with, but don't just break up with something so trivial. His eyes met Brenna's, but she seemed distant, almost as if she couldn't care less about him He then reached out, trying to pull her away. "Let's go. Cback with me," he said.

Brenna shook him off with a firm gesture. "I already told you we are done. Stop bothering me," she said. Seeing this, Thiago stepped forward, positioning himself between Brenna and Ethan to protect Brenna "Mr. Mitchell, please stop bothering Brenna," he said coldly.

Practically glowing with excitement, Rosie seized the opportunity to fuel the fire. "Ethan, did you see that? This 17.11 Chapter 119 What's Really Going On Between You Two man is so protective of Brenna. Their relationship must be special!" she said She raised an eyebrow and arrogantly asked Brenna, "Tell us the truth. What's really going on between you two? Ethan clearly doesn't agree with the breakup, yet you are already involved with another man Don't you feel ashamed of yourself?" Ethan's curiosity about the relationship between Brenna and Thiago was undeniable, but he wouldn't voice it aloud. Instead, he decided he would have someone look into it He stood there, his cold gaze locked onto Thiago as he waited for Brenna's response. "Step aside. I'm speaking to my fiancée. This has nothing to do with you." Rosie knew Ethan better than anyone since they had grown up together. She knew he never openly stated what he wanted or asked direct questions. For him to say something like that was already a sign that he had reached his limit.

She turned to Brenna, pressing harder, asking, "Didn't you hear him? What's really going on between you two? Have you done something to hurt Ethan?" Rosie's arrogance was so overwhelming, and Brenna couldn't take it anymore. "Shut up!" Brenna snapped coldly, raising her hand and delivering a hard slap to Rosie's face. This time, the strike was even fiercer, sending Rosie reeling, with blood beginning to trickle from the corner of her mouth "You hitagain? Are you feeling uneasy? Is that why you hitagain?" Rosie shrieked, pointing a shaking finger at Brenna. "Have you two already slept together? Tell us the truth!"

Thiago stepped forward, fury burning in his eyes as he looked at Rosie. "Watch your mouth Brenna and Tare just, colleagues, nothing more. We were simply discussing business over dinner. It's not what you are implying." he said.

His temper flared as he pieced together who Rosie really was. She was probably after Ethan, which explained why she was going to such lengths to cause trouble for Brenna Rosie let out a mocking snort. "Just colleagues? That's absurd. Brenna doesn't even have a real job. She wouldn't have any colleagues!" She narrowed her eyes at Brenna and demanded, "Tell me, which company do you work for? What's your position, and how long have you been working there?" Brenna pressed her lips into a tight line, refusing to expose her multiple identities to someone like Rosie.

She then shifted her cold gaze to Ethan. "If you have nothing else to say, please leave. Stop interrupting our meal," she said.

Just then, another car pulled up in front of the restaurant Harlan stepped out, still reeling from then shock of watching his father being taken away by prosecutors and shoved into a police car. He didn't dare set foot in the instead company building, so he went into the restaurant

The moment his eyes landed on Thiago, fury took over. He stormed across the room and grabbed Thiago by the collar. "Was it you? Are you the one who destroyed my family?" he exclaimed in a
