Chapter 77 Kicking Her Out

As the tett family discussed strategies to break into Shirie’s elite social circle, Isabella’s attention was drawn

ering the banquet hall who seemed entirely out of place.

Dressed simply in a white T–shirt and jeans, topped with a baseball cap and sneakers, and carrying a beige backpack, Brenna was wearing an attire that was notably casual and mismatched for the grandeur of the event. Still, she looked beautiful.

Recognizing Brenna, Isabella couldn’t resist scoffing, “Mom, look, Brenna’s here. Can you believe what she’s wearing? Her outfit looks like it’s worth less than two hundred dollars. Does she even understand the caliber of this event? This isn’t a place for someone dressed like that.”

Ruby glanced over and noticed Brenna by the buffet, casually selecting fruits to fill a small plate.

Continuing her exploration, Brenna soon moved to the desserts, sampling a few, and then to the beverage station, where she chose a glass of blueberry juice.

She had spent the entire day with Thiago, going over the details of a custom smart system for helicopters with a client. She hadn’t eaten or drunk anything all day, and now, hunger was setting in.

By the time the meeting ended, it was already late. She hadn’t had a chance to change and had to rush over to the banquet immediately.

Ruby frowned with disapproval, saying to Isabella, “I bet she can’t even afford a proper meal anymore and just showed up here to eat things for free. We should remove her before she tells anyone she’s associated with our

family. It would be embarrassing for us.”

“Mom, let’s go and kick her out now,” Mack suggested, his expression disdainful as he moved towards Brenna.

Alec, observing the scene, felt a twinge of disappointment. He had entertained the possibility that Brenna

might be the Harper family’s recently discovered daughter, but her current behavior made that seem

improbable. After all, the Harper family’s daughter wouldn’t appear in such casual attire.

And why was Brenna behaving as if she’d never seen good food before, piling her plate at the buffet like that?

He resigned himself to the fact that Brenna was not the daughter of the Harper family.

He said, “You all go ahead. I’ll use this opportunity to meet some of Shirie’s wealthiest individuals and try to secure a few orders. Try to keep things quiet. It’d be shameful if you cause a scene over this.”

Ruby nodded in agreement, saying, “Understood, I’ll handle it discreetly.”

Brenna had secluded herself in a quiet corner to eat while still texting her client about follow–up details. Her concentration was so intense that she failed to notice anyone approaching

Out of nowhere, a tall figure appeared before her, completely blocking her from view.

“Brenna, how did you get in here? Haven’t you caused enough embarrassment? Leave now!” Mack exclaimed

harshly, yanking the blueberry juice from Brenna’s grasp and smashing it down onto the nearby table,

The juice splattered, some landing on the table and some on Brenna’s face.

Caught off guard, Brenna looked up to find Mack pointing aggressively towards the exit, his face contorted with

anger.

“Mack? What do you want?” Brenna asked, reaching for a napkin to dab away the juice on her face. She was not shocked to encounter the Barrett family here, as her parents had informed her of their attendance.

But she didn’t appreciate their attitude.

Ruby and Isabella quickly flanked Mack, effectively cornering Brenna.

Isabella said with disdain, “Just because your real last name is Harper doesn’t mean you belong to this Harper

family’s event. You shouldn’t stay here. Leave.”
