Chapter 1092:
Without another word, Ethan gently took Brenna’s hand and guided her toward the executive elevator.
Stunned and left behind, Gracie could only watch, humiliated and simmering with resentment. Brenna hadn't
risen to the bait and hadn't lost her composure. If she had, Gracie might have walked away with public sympathy
on her side.
News of the morning’s spread through the company like wildfire. Executives wasted no tspeculating
about Brenna and Gracie, betting on who would end up with Ethan in the end.
Brenna heard about this from Lorna.
Just before noon, Brenna was on the verge of inviting Ethan to lunch when Lorna walked in carrying a tray piled

“Alani dropped these off just now. Apparently, they cfrom Mr. Mitchell’s mother. Alani said Mr. Mitchell loved
