EuropeNovelChapter 1140:
The next morning, Brenna arrived at work and caught sight of Alec at the building’s entrance, looking more
refreshed than ever.
Brenna examined him from head to toe. His outfit was spotless, his hair perfectly styled, and he seemed
downright cheerful. “Where'd you stay last night?” she asked.
She couldn't help but wonder. Just yesterday, Alec had nowhere to go, yet today, he looked to be in such a good
mood.
Alec smoothed his jacket and flashed Brenna a smug look. “If you won't look after me, someone else will. I'm
hardly struggling. I'm actually doing just fine.”
Brenna noticed the faint trace of expensive cologne on him but didn’t press for details. She headed for the
elevator, phone already out, texting her bodyguard to look into Alec’s whereabouts from the night before. With
the way he looked, she doubted he’d spent the night at just a hotel.
Around 10 a.m., Brenna was at her desk, adjusting a robot prototype, when Lorna pushed open the office door.
Behind her were Jayceon and Fay, the latter wearing a striking burgundy gown that hugged her curves. Fay’s
steps had a subtle sway as she clung to Jayceon’s arm, a bright smile on her face.
Lorna paused, glancing back with a polite nod. “Please wait here for a moment.” However, Jayceon ignored her,

Lorna's brow furrowed. “Mr. Russell, Ms. Harper hasn't invited you in. It's rude to barge in like this.”
Jayceon, exuding an air of superiority, looked down at Brenna, showing no concern for a mere assistant like
Lorna.
“No need to worry; I'll speak with Ms. Harper myself about this,” he said. Brenna lifted her gaze, taking in
Jayceon’s polished, charismatic demeanor, noting there were no signs of injury from his recent accident.
“I figured you'd be hobbling or stuck in a wheelchair for good,” she remarked, stepping away from her desk with
folded arms and a taunting smirk.
Jayceon extended a luxurious red and gold-embossed invitation to Brenna. “I see you as family—why would you
wishill like that?” he said, feigning hurt. Brenna'’s eyes flicked to Fay. “You look stunning today.”
Fay’s face lit up. “Thanks for the kind words. We're holding a wedding in two weeks at the Peace Hotel. We'd love
for you to be there, Brenna.”
Brenna harbored a deep dislike for both Jayceon and Fay, feeling they had wronged Ellie. Fay had mocked Brenna
upon her return, and the couple’s choice to have Ellie’s stucraft their wedding attire felt like a calculated jab.
Although Ellie had moved on from Jayceon, Brenna still found their actions distasteful.

“I'll think about it,” Brenna replied curtly, already having decided against attending the moment she saw the
invitation.
Fay’s expression soured. “Brenna, Jayceon invited you because you're Mr. Harper's sister. He truly sees you like
family, not sstranger. There's no reason for you to refuse.”
Brenna let out a derisive laugh, her smile dripping with sarcasm as she eyed Jayceon. “You and | are not exactly
family, considering we're not related.”
