MainNovelChapter 322: Ernst's frown deepened, clearly irritated by his friend's unexpected interference. Jayceon had openly contradicted him in front of everyone, leaving him humiliated.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTurning to Brenna with a stern look, he asked, "Why didn't you clarify this earlier? Why let everyone here misunderstand?" Brenna's expression grew even colder as she said, “I told you from the start that this child isn't mine; he belongs to a friend of mine. Did you believe me?" Everyone in the room heard their conversation and believed Jayceon.
However, Kennedi, not satisfied with letting Brenna off the hook so easily, seized the microphone and spoke again. "Miss Brenna Harper, there's talk that you crafted a betting agreement with Mr. Ernst Harper and Miss Rosie Harper to secure control over the Harper Group's shares. Now that Mr. Ernst Harper has stepped down from the Harper Group, are you planning to take over the company as CEO? Do you really think you have the capability to take on such a significant role at your age?" Kennedi was growing anxious. Rosie had repeatedly assured her that Brenna's presentation would include a scandalous photo, yet the first slide displayed an elegant car design.
The photo Rosie had spoken of was nowhere to be found.
Through the video call, Rosie also noticed what was happening on the screen. She quickly grabbed another phone and made a call, demanding answers.

"It seems our system has been hacked," the technician said, working urgently to resolve the issue. But the hacker's skills were far too good, leaving him unable to take back control.
Rosie, frustrated, ended the call with a curse.
On the stage, Shepard took the microphone, his demeanor grave as he addressed the crowd, saying, "Regarding the agreement, I need to clarify a few things. The Harper Group isn't just my family's legacy; it's built on the hard work of tens of thousands of our employees. It's through their shared efforts that the company has reached its current success. That's a fact no one can deny, which is why, as the chairman, I believe it's important to address the recent shift in leadership." After a pause, he continued, "Even though this situation involves my own family, it has a direct impact on the Harper Group as well. Two months ago, my daughter Brenna was finally found after being missing for years. She returned to the family. Many of you may have heard various rumors about her. Sclaim that my daughter didn't even finish elementary school and is unqualified to work in car design. Letset the record straight today." Latest Chapters in glovels.co His voice turned serious. "Brenna graduated at eighteen from a renowned university in Norview with dual master's degrees in finance and mechanical design. She is an internationally recognized award-winning designer, which refutes the claims about her educational background. Still, there are those who refuse to believe it, claiming her credentials are fabricated and even casting doubt on whether her awards are real." After a pause, he added, "That's why her siblings agreed to a wager. If Brenna secured first place in the Harper Group's automotive design competition, Ernst would willingly step down from the management team and hand over his shares to her. My niece, Rosie, is also bound by this agreement. Both my father and older brother were present as witnesses, and their signatures gave the agreement full legal weight. Brenna didn't rely on any tricks or manipulation. It was a- ...straightforward wager between her and her siblings, and now, they're obligated to respect the result."
Shepard then gave Ernst a sharp look. The content isyonnovelenglish.net!
Ernst, feeling resentful and embarrassed, looked at Brenna and then at Jayceon with anger. Knowing Jayceon well, he understood that Jayceon would not just acknowledge a child as his own without proof.
