?Chapter 1066:

    She shot Ethan a cold re, making it clear she didn’t care about Rosanna’s condition at all.

    Ethan was seething. “If Rosanna weren’t so physically resilient, she could have lost the baby. She was only here today for a checkup, thinking she might be pregnant. The holiday gave her a rare chance to see a doctor and visit Grandma. And look what happened—your actions nearly caused a tragedy. Still, you refuse to see that you are in the wrong. If you don’t apologize to her, do you honestly believe you’ll have the chance to see her again? Rosanna isn’t someone who’ll let you walk all over her.”

    No softness colored his words; Ethanid everything out with a hard edge.

    He continued, “You don’t have to go and apologize to Rosanna, but you’re not wee by her and Kenny anymore. When Kenny’s child is born, don’t expect to be called Grandma.”

    With that, he stood up and strode away, leaving Elsa alone with her uneasy conscience.

    Swallowing her pride was no easy task. Elsa’s stubbornness told her that elders owed no apologies to the young.

    Yet, as her guilt gnawed at her, she found herself lingering at the doorway to Rosanna’s hospital room.

    Inside,ughter and conversation filled the space. The Mitchell women had all gathered, offering support for Rosanna. Ronald had even brought Ethan’s grandmother over, wheeling her to the front of the crowd.

    Positioned right by Rosanna’s side, Belen leaned in with genuine warmth. “Rosanna, you’ve endured so much. The me for today falls on me; I failed as a mother. I’m here to apologize to you on Elsa’s behalf. She was wrong, and I want you to know how sorry I feel. That child you carry belongs to the Mitchell family, and everyone here will stand behind you…”

    Elsa overheard the exchange and fumed. She reached for the doorknob, intent on barging in, when Brenna suddenly opened the door and emerged, Ethan trailing close behind.

    Sharp words flew from Elsa’s mouth as she looked at Brenna. “Was it you who brought my mother here? You told her about what had happened? Don’t you know she’s injured? She needs surgery this afternoon. Who are you to interfere in my family’s business?”

    Her voice dropped to a harsh whisper as she scolded Brenna in the corridor.

    ?????????????????? ?????????????? ??????????: ?????????ν???????????????

    Originally, the incident had been kept from Belen. Ronald wouldn’t have said anything, nor would Bess. At the moment, the rest of the Mitchell family didn’t know about Belen’s hospitalization, so Elsa believed that Brenna was the only one who could have told Belen about the matter.

    A chilling glint appeared in Brenna’s eyes, her stare so cold that it sent a shiver down Elsa, making her lose her confidence as she spoke.

    Brenna said, “What proof do you have that I brought Belen here? You’re making baseless usations. And even if I did, so what? You were wrong in the matter, and Belen clearly has more sense than you do.”

    Elsa bristled, her pride stung. “How dare you talk to me like this? You don’t want to marry my son anymore? Is that why you have the audacity to treat me with this attitude? I will hit—”

    She raised her hand to strike, but Brenna caught her wrist and flung it away, though she didn’t use much force out of respect for Ethan.
