Chapter 1406:
Ethan's clear-headed strategy steadied Ernst. “Alright, Ill follow your plan.”
The company’s operations hummed along normally, except for the frenetic PR department. Ernst didn’t rush to
the police station. He directed the PR head to draft multiple statements first, clarifying the situation across
various channels. Once everything was set, he headed to the police station.
At the Harper family’s house, Lilith arrived early, sharing breakfast with Giselle. Brenna said to Giselle, “Mom,
things are spiraling. | need to help Ernst manage everything. Don’t be upset. Anger won't fix this. We need to
stand together to weather this storm.”
After a night to cool off, Giselle was calmer. She shot Shepard, who remained silent, a frosty glance before
muttering, “Go. Your dad's in no state to show his face now.”
Relieved to see her parents composed, Brenna left.
She found a mob of reporters—major outlets and TV stations—clogging the entrance of the police station. She
parked a block away, pulling her baseball cap low and slipping on sunglasses. Then, she entered the station
through the west gate alongside Darwin, who'd just arrived.
Ernst was already there, withdrawing the complaint. Soon, Keira and Sandra were brought out.
Keira faced the Harper siblings with a smug grin. “If you'd listened tolast night, would it have cto this?
See, you still have to acknowledge my daughter's identity, don’t you?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBrenna’s voice was calm but edged with steel. “Are you certain she’s my father’s daughter, Ms. Evans? Have you
considered what happens if the DNA test says otherwise? The Harper family doesn’t take kindly to such a lie.”
Keira scoffed. “She’s his daughter, no question. I'm not afraid of a DNA test. Let's do it now!”
Her eyes gleamed with visions of wealth. For money, she'd do anything. But as the testing agency staff
approached with their equipment, a flicker of unease still stirred in her chest.
Sandra's voice wavered as she turned toward Keira, clinging to her like a lifeline. “Mom...”
Keira’s resentment toward the Harper family simmered just beneath the surface. With all their riches, what
would it cost them to spare a fraction for her and her child? Sandra might not have been raised under their roof,
but blood tied her to Shepard, whether they liked it or not.
Hatred burned in Keira’s eyes, sharp enough to cut, as she leveled her glare at Brenna and Ernst.
