Chapter 1062: Physically, Rosanna appeared unharmed, and she looked calm.
Her thoughts jumped straight to Kenny. "Any news on Kenny? Has his surgery finished?" Worry for her baby barely crossed her mind—her faith in her own resilience left little room for fear of miscarriage.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was Kenny she truly felt concerned about. He had fallen down the stairs with her and hit his head hard.
Bess tried to comfort Rosanna, saying, "He'll pull through, Rosanna. Kenny is strong; remember, he flew planes for years. It's just a knock on the head. With all those doctors on his side, he's in good hands." Yet, even those soothing words fell flat, unable to chip away at the anxiety clutching Rosanna's chest.
Brenna was already unlocking her phone. "Ethan's down by the OR. I'll call him and ask him about the situation there." The call went through quickly.
"Any update?" Brenna put the call on speaker, hoping for good news.
Ethan's tone was somber. "They found a small brain bleed—about two milliliters. The surgical team's working on it, but his life's not in danger right now." Brenna wasn't sure if that was good news. She hung up and looked at Rosanna. “See, he's not in immediate danger. Don't worry; he'll be fine." Sof the tension left Rosanna's posture, but indignation simmered in her eyes. "Elsa knew I was pregnant. Yet, she still pusheddown the stairs." Bess didn't hesitate to take her side. “I saw it, too. You never touched her; she pushed you first." Rosanna's anger sharpened. "She tried to claim I started it?" Bess nodded. "I know my aunt was out of line. I'm not asking you to forgive her, only that you and Kenny both get through this safely. Are you hungry? Letget you something to eat. You're stuck here with an IV, and no one even brought you any water. This isn't right." Bess rose from her seat and turned to Brenna. "Stay here with Rosanna. I'm going to buy a few things." Brenna reached into her purse, pulled out a wad of cash, and offered it to Bess.

"You're from the powerful Harper family. Elsa at least treats you with srespect, no?"
Brenna's lips twisted into a wry smile. "No. I was lost as a child and raised by the Barretts. I only returned to the Harper family recently, and she looks down on me. Then there was that incident at Mrs. Russell's birthday party. I made a bet and got Braeden. to help with a performance. When Elsa showed up, she got offended by the matter. She dislikes me."
Rosanna let out a soft laugh. "I figured she might have warmed up to you a little. I heard about that matter before-people all laughed at bern because of how she reacted. It wasn't a big deal; she's a performer, so why can't she perform for Mrs. Russell? But she couldn't get over it, felt embarrassed, and even decided to retire early. I think that's why she's againstbeing with Kenny. She's afraid I'll judge her for it."
Brenna's eyes widened in surprise. "So that's why she's so against your marriage to Kenny? Her pride sure runs deep."
