NovelEnglishChapter 1233:
She swung open the door, her icy stare locking onto Alec. He shifted uncomfortably, his eyes dodging hers, a
stark contrast to the bravado he had displayed earlier.
He had the nerve to threaten his mother, yet now, he cowered?
“Brenna, darling, csit,” Joann said, her face lighting up with a warm smile as she beckoned Brenna closer.
Brenna settled by the bedside, clasping Joann’s hand, and the two chatted. Alec tried several times to catch
Joann’s attention with subtle gestures, but she deliberately ignored him.
Moments later, Ruby, Isabella, and Mack arrived.
Ruby’s and Mack's faces soured at the sight of Brenna. The reason was no mystery. Brenna had flatly refused to
secure a job for Mack.
Brenna had secured a well-paying role for Isabella, pulling in over thirty thousand a month plus bonuses, while
refusing to extend the sfavor to Mack.
Ruby couldn’t wrap her head around the matter, no matter how much she mulled it over.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer memory burned with the image of Mack’s brutal thrashing during his last meeting with Brenna.
If not for the two formidable security guards stationed outside, Ruby might have lunged at Brenna.
Though Brenna’s presence grated on her nerves, Ruby dared not offend her. She just said coldly, “We're
strapped for cash. Joann’s medical bills are piling up, and the hospital fees are overdue. Have you taken care of
them? If not, do it soon.”
Brenna responded calmly, “Everything is paid, and the discharge papers are sorted.”

Ruby, though aware Brenna wouldn't give them money easily, clung to a sliver of hope that she might contribute
something for Joann’s care.
She said, “Brenna, you know our family’s fortunes aren't what they used to be. We can’t afford health
supplements anymore. Your grandmother needs proper care, and...”
The nursing hisn’t suitable for her condition. We're planning to bring her hto take care of her. Would
you consider helping us with money for health supplements? It would help us look after her better.”
Alec quickly said, “Exactly. Your grandmother’s health is frail, and the nursing home's care is inadequate. She
would be better off living with us.”
Joann’s face darkened as she observed her son’s and his wife's shameless greed.
She said sharply, “I was perfectly fine at the nursing home, free from your nonsense. I'm not moving in with you.
Your house is cramped as it is. Where would Isabella and Mack even sleep if | live with you?”
Her piercing gaze cut through them, fully aware of their true motives.
Brenna let out a cold laugh, fully aware that any funds for health supplements would never reach Joann.
“Health supplements? I'll send them directly to my grandmother regularly. No need for you to trouble
yourselves,” she said, her tone dripping with disdain. The mere sight of this family turned her stomach.
By four in the afternoon, after Joann’s IV drip was complete, Brenna gently helped her into the car and drove her
to the nursing hherself.
Alec and Ruby stewed in silence, powerless to challenge Brenna.
Alec and the others drove their own car to the nursing home.
