?Chapter 1464:
“Fine, just be sure toe back early.”
The call ended, and Brenna returned home with Ernst and Lilith.
Midnight came by the time they arrived home, yet Sandra still hadn’t returned. Brenna remained indifferent. Not a single member of the Harper family asked about Sandra, nor did they seem to care where she had gone.
After finishing her shower, Brenna changed into her pajamas and prepared to rest when an unexpected knock sounded at her door.
When she opened the door, she saw Sandra standing there holding a grand bouquet of roses, her face glowing with delight. “Brenna, I’m home.”
“The flowers look lovely. You should get some sleep.” Brenna kept her words brief. She understood that saying anything bad about Andres would only fall on deaf ears and might even cause Sandra to resent her.
“Mr. Stewart brought me back tonight. He treated me to steak, and I think he’s a genuinely good man. I even asked him about those rumors of having too many girlfriends. He promised me that if we were together, he would change and stay faithful to me for the rest of his life.” Sandra spoke quickly, eager to defend Andres.
“I hope things turn out well for you.” Brenna left it at that. Sandra had fallen for Andres’ charm and believed every word he said. No warning could shake her faith, so Brenna saw no point in persuading her.
Brenna noticed something different in Sandra’s eyes. They now carried a calm assurance, and when she looked at Sandra, the submissive expression she always had was gone.
It seemed absurd, but a few ttering words from a man had given her a sense of confidence.
Brenna had no desire to involve herself in Sandra’s rtionship, and whether her parents cared or not was none of her concern.

In front of Brenna, Sandra lifted the bouquet to her face, drawing in the scent of the roses with an entranced smile.
“Thank you, Brenna. It’ste, so you should rest now.” With that, Sandra turned and walked away.
Closing the door softly, Brenna muttered under her breath, “Andres doesn’t treat only you this way. He says the same to every girl. One day, you’ll regret believing him.”
By noon the following day, Sandra made time to visit Keira, who was in the hospital.
Keira was still hooked to an IV, though the doctors nned to send her home in two days to finish recovering there.
Wanting to make things easier for her, Sandra had hired a caregiver. When she arrived, though, Keira was voicing her displeasure at the caregiver’s service.
