Chapter 151 Becoming A Shareholder Of The Harp…
Ernst was livid. He shot to his feet, ignoring everyone around him, and barked at Brenna, “What nonsense are you talking about? If you lay a hand on Rosie, don’t blame me for getting ruthless!”
Brenna’s frustration boiled over. “When I was up against those thugs, did you worry about me? Thiago and ! fought off dozens of people together. Did you once care if I made it out alive? Rosie plotted against me, and you let it slide. But now that I’m fighting back, suddenly you’re concerned about the matter? That’s not fair!”
For a moment, Ernst felt some guilt, but it vanished just as quickly. He said, “Rosie is not like you. She doesn’t know how to fight and can’t defend herself. You’re different. You can take down a group of men without getting hurt. She can’t.”
“Ernst, you make me sick.” Shepard pointed toward the door and exclaimed in anger, “Get out! I can’t believe
you’re my son.”
Giselle looked at Ernst, her face filled with disappointment. “Brenna is your sister. How can you say something
like that?”
Rosie slowly picked herself up from the floor and walked over to Ernst. “Ernst, don’t turn against your family because of me. I’m not worth it. I don’t deserve to be loved…”
The whole family stared at Rosie with strange expressions. How had they never seen this side of her before? She had made a serious mistake, yet somehow, she acted like she was the victim here.
Audrey didn’t bother even looking at Rosie. Standing by Brenna’s side, she said to her, “Don’t let her get to you. Someone like her isn’t worth it.”
Rosie turned to Audrey with wounded eyes. “Audrey, Brenna stole your fiancé. Doesn’t that bother you at all?”
Audrey’s gaze stayed cold. “I have a boyfriend. I never had feelings for Ethan, and I never planned on marrying
him.”
Rosie was skeptical. She couldn’t believe Audrey had no interest in someone as exceptional as Ethan. Maybe it was just bad timing. Sooner or later, Rosie believed Audrey would come to see that no man could compare to
Ethan and fall for him.
“We’re leaving!” Ernst snapped. He was done with his family. In his eyes, no one cared that Rosie had lost her parents and that she had no one left to stand up for her now. One mistake, and she was cast aside and stripped of everything.
Brenna stepped in and blocked Rosie’s path. “You’re not going anywhere. You still haven’t transferred your shares to me. The agreement we signed is legally binding.”
Rosie, who had hoped to slip away quietly, exploded in anger. “I’ve already lost everything. Do you want to

drive me to my death? I’m telling you now I’m not handing over those shares. Let’s see what you can do
about it!”
She shoved Brenna with all her strength, but Brenna didn’t even move. “Without handing over the shares, you are not leaving,” Brenna said.
Ernst said through gritted teeth, “If she gives up the shares, she’ll have nothing left! Brenna, don’t be so cruel.”
“When she hired thugs to come after me, she was cruel and didn’t hold back. Why can’t I treat her the same
way?” Brenna retorted bluntly.
Ernst and Rosie looked around at the rest of the Harper family, hoping someone would speak up for them. But
not a single person did.
Rosie took in the scene and seared it into memory. The Harper family was heartless. One day, she would make sure the Harper Group crumbled..
With no other choice, Rosie made a phone call. Not long after, Rachael arrived, carrying a stack of documents.
Rosie quickly signed her name to transfer her shares, then stormed out without looking back.
“Unbelievable!” Shepard glared at Rosie’s retreating figure. “I cared for that girl all these years, only for her to
be like this!”
Ableson nodded. “She really is a disappointment. I never imagined she’d stoop so low and try to create tension between Audrey and Brenna over Ethan.”
He then turned to Audrey. “How long have you been in a relationship?” he asked.
