NovelFastChapter 1175:
“Mom, it is tfor you to take your medicine,” Elsa said.
Bess couldn't hide her irritation at Elsa’s antics. After all, she was the one who had invited Brenna here. “Elsa,
chere for a minute. | have something to discuss with you.”
Elsa took her words seriously, thinking Bess had something important to say, and walked over.
With a perfectly straight face, Bess lied, “The doctor said we need to settle the bill. | don’t have money on me
right now. Would you take care of it?”
Elsa didn’t hesitate. “Of course. Your grandmother's health is most important. I'll go pay right now.”
Grabbing her purse and phone, she hurried out of the room.
A sly smile crept across Bess’ face as she glanced at Brenna, pleased that her little plan had worked.
In fact, Brenna did not have much to say to Belen. After sbrief pleasantries, she left.
Gracie followed Brenna out and called after her, “Wait a moment.”
Brenna stopped, turning to Gracie. “Do you have something to say to me?”
Suspicion colored Gracie’s voice as she confronted Brenna, saying, “Were you the one who let those mice loose
in my office?”

Brenna couldn't help but chuckle. “Seriously? Why would | waste my ton childish tricks like that? Don’t you
think | have better things to do?”
Hands tightening into fists, Gracie shot Brenna a glare full of accusation. “If you didn’t do it, then who else could
have done that? You are the only one in the company who dislikes me. | can’t think of anyone else.”
Each word seemed to wind her up further, the memory of the mice making her dread returning to her office.
Two days had passed since she'd last gone to the company to see Ethan. And Elsa’s calls to get him hhad
been ignored.
Brenna had no patience for baseless finger-pointing. “If you're convinced it was me, then prove it. Otherwise, |
have better things to do than stand here arguing with you pointlessly.”
With that, she turned on her heel and strode away, not bothering to look back.

Irritation boiling over, Gracie chased after her, saying, “Did you tell Ethan not to go home? He hasn't set foot in
his hfor days. His mother misses him.”
A cold, dismissive glance was all Brenna spared her. “Ethan’s a grown man—he doesn’t answer to me. Maybe he
just doesn’t want to see you. If you moved out, he might go home.”
Just then, Bess also stepped out of
the room and said, “Speople are
just so shameless. Even whepytey
are clearly unwanted frdy still refuse
t&4dave and keep hanging around
other people's homes, foolishly
believing this will make them part of
the family. The harder they hang on,
the less welcthey become.” The

Brenna stepped into the elevator, Bess quietly slipping in at her side.
Gracie stood outside the elevator doors. “What do you mean by that?”
Bess crossed her arms and leveled a
direct stare at her. "Maybe if you

I'd move out of Ethan's hwith
my dignity intact before he stopped
