NovelEnglishChapter 1320:
Rosie was caught completely off guard. Tessa was actually blaming her for meddling. This was odd.
Hadn't Tessa always been on her side?
With a huff of grievance, she glanced at Tessa, her eyes brimming with disappointment.
Tessa acted as though she hadn't noticed.
Meanwhile, Giselle and Shepard carried on with their conversation, discussing the best tto meet the
Richardsons regarding the engagement ceremony.
A restless feeling lingered with Rosie. Once the meal was over, she led Tessa back to her room as usual.
As soon as the door closed behind them, Tessa’s voice turned serious. “You're letting your mind wander, child.
Quit dwelling on nonsense and concentrate on your husband. He's your priority. Do you understand?”
Rosie brushed the advice aside. “Honestly, Grandma, wealth means more than any man to me. If my husband
leaves me, I'll find another man. But if I'm stripped of my assets, he will divorcein an instant. I've barely lost
a few businesses, and he’s already taken another wife. If | end up without my Harper Group shares, he'll
definitely divorce me, because I'll be nothing to him then.”

that their perspectives and values would clash.
“You foolish girl,” Tessa said softly. “Money can’t buy everything you want.”
Rosie pouted, unwilling to agree. “I still believe wealth and influence are what count. But Grandma, you did make
one good point: | need to secure my place in his heart. He can have as many women as he wishes, so long as I'm
the one holding authority.”

Tessa frowned in confusion. “You're fine with your husband having other women?”
Rosie shrugged, her tone flat. “That doesn’t bother me, Grandma. In Plieca, polygamy is part of the culture; it's
completely legal. But no matter how many wives there are, only one truly runs the household. And that role
belongs to me.”
She suddenly clutched Tessa’s arm. “Grandma, you're all | have left. Everyone's ganging up on me; you have to
stand by me.”
Tessa gently patted her hand. “How are they ganging up on you? They've already promised you the shares that
are rightfully yours. You now control twenty percent of the Harper Group's shares. With that much, you can hold
your ground in Plieca. What's there to fear? What you should do is return to your husband and win his heart
back.”
Rosie gave a scoff. “I won't flatter him, Grandma. He's the one who depends on me, not the other way around.
He should be the one trying to please me.”
“It's your decision,” Tessa replied calmly. “In a few days, I'll be leaving. | don’t feel at ease staying here. You can
live however you want; | won't interfere.”
She had grown weary of this place. Luther had died here last year, and every tshe walked into the living
room or the dining room, memories of him overwhelmed her with sorrow.
After a pause, she continued, “What's more, my condition keeps weakening. | should return to the estate and
focus on resting.”
By Monday noon, Ethan was in the company cafeteria, having lunch with Brenna.
As he ate, his phone rang with a call.
Seeing the caller, he scowled and muttered, “What is it this time?”
It was Elsa calling.
