?Chapter 1431:


    Brenna helped her wear them, and as Giselle admired her reflection in the mirror, a genuine smile bloomed on her face. “They’re beautiful,” she said. “You always know how to lift my spirits. Your father has been so annoyingtely, always saying that he probably should give Sandra some money. I told him not to do it.”


    Brenna chuckled, her voice soothing. “Don’t worry, Mom. I won’t give her any money, either. She won’t get money from our family. She is not your daughter—why should we open our wallets for her?”


    Brenna’s words melted Giselle’s frustration, easing her fear that Brenna might be siding with an outsider.


    As she left Giselle’s room, Brenna found Sandra lingering by her own room, looking slightly awkward with aptop in her hands.


    “Brenna, the housekeeper mentioned you’re a whiz withputers,” Sandra said hesitantly. “I was hoping you could check mine. I got itst year, but it’s already acting up.”


    Brenna nced at theptop—a sleek, pricey model, likely worth a small fortune.


    “Come in,” she said, gesturing Sandra inside.


    Sandra ced theptop on the table and noticed Brenna’sputer with a design draft on the screen, resembling a robot.


    “Did you design that?” she asked, intrigued.


    Brenna nodded and turned her attention to Sandra’sptop. With a few swift clicks, she resolved the issue in under two minutes.


    “It was a virus,” she exined. “Your design drafts in theputer could’ve been stolen already.”<fnbf0a> Read full story at Find1Novel</fnbf0a>


    Realizing Sandra wasn’t fishing for a handout or a new device, Brenna felt her impression of Sandra improving.


    Sandra’s face fell. “Those drafts were years of my work…”


    Seeing her distress, Brenna felt a pang of sympathy. “I’ll set you up with a firewall—the same one I use. It’s top-notch. Your future work won’t be stolen.”

    “Thank you,” Sandra said, her voice tinged with gratitude. “Luckily, I wasn’t nning to use those designs anyway. My mentor said that since I left her studio, everything I created there belongs to her.”


    Brenna’s brow furrowed. “Does she own the rights to all your previous work?” She double-checked with Sandra.


    Sandra answered, “Yes, all the designers at her studio sign those contracts. It’s no big deal, so I just let it slide.”


    Brenna found the use unfair, but since Sandra seemed unbothered, she chose not to press the issue.


    “Fine, but steer clear of signing such unfair contracts in the future,” Brenna advised. She then sent the firewall file from herputer to Sandra’s. Within ten minutes, it was installed.


    She also set up facial recognition to secure Sandra’sptop, ensuring only Sandra could unlock it even if someone had the password.


    “There,” Brenna said. “Yourputer’s now protected from most viruses, and no one can mess with it.”
