NovelBookChapter 1013: Brenna's anger simmered just beneath the surface, barely held in check. Not even Elsa's past insults had managed to make her this furious.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEthan looked at her, his voice full of regret. "I just need you to hearout. I'm sorry for upsetting you. Please forgive me. There's really something I need to say to you." Brenna arched an eyebrow, barely holding back her irritation. "Say what you need to say." "I know you hate it when I get involved with Gracie. The truth is, nothing's going on between Gracie and me. I'm only trying to help her take back the Wilson Group. You know she's married, and I have no interest in a married woman. Brenna, I've already handed over Gracie's matters to Milton. I'm not getting involved in this anymore." Brenna's expression remained displeased, and though she was clearly angry, she spoke calmly. “I know, but I just don't like my boyfriend helping another woman." Her position was clear, and she wasn't about to back down easily.
Ethan, at a loss, had prepared so much to say but didn't know where to start. "Brenna, I don't have feelings for her, and I never will. And about my mother, I'm sorry for what she said to you..." As Ethan poured out his heartfelt explanation, Brenna listened attentively, her initial frustration softening with his evident sincerity. She stayed quiet, giving him the space to express himself fully.
When he finished speaking, Ethan reached for her arm gently and asked, "Brenna, do you trust what I'm saying? Can we move past this conflict and get back together?" Brenna eased his hand away and responded evenly, "I accept your apology. I don't oppose you supporting Gracie." Ethan smiled, but seeing Brenna's calm demeanor, he still felt uneasy. "So, does this mean you've agreed to get back together with me?" he asked.
Brenna shook her head. "No, I can't get back together with you. I can't accept my boyfriend datingwhile helping another woman, especially one who has pursued him before. I don't believe in a purely platonic friendship between a man and a woman, and Gracie's intentions aren't as simple as you think. She didn't just cto you asking for help with her company." Ethan shook his head. "No, she really just wantsto help her get her company back. She has no other intentions. If there is anything, it's just to help her get a divorce. I owe her for helpinglaunch my company, so I have to help her now." Brenna replied, "Let's just wait and see what happens." ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐ gat.novEthan suggested, "How about this? We set a timeline. Once Gracie regains control of her company and finalizes her divorce from Hector, I'll ask you to get back together withagain. Does that work? Brenna, you're the only person I love in this world. I swear I'm telling the truth." Ethan gazed at Brenna sincerely. "During this time, let's not look for new partners, okay?" Brenna pushed him out the door without replying.
As the door swung open, the office, previously buzzing with animatech conversation, went quiet. Employees quickly returned to their tasks, pretending no gossip had occurred.
Ethan lingered outside, murmuring, "So, it's a deal, right?" , The content is of novelenglish.net!
