Chapter 1010: "You did the right thing!" Giselle spoke up, her tone sharp. "She had it coming! Someone her age ought to know better than to say things like that. Teaching her a lesson is only right, or she'll keep acting like she owns the place. We have to remind her that the world doesn't revolve around her or her family. Even if her son is the richest man alive, that doesn't mean her family gets to treat people poorly or forget how to be decent. Our family is not easy to mess with!" Shepard scoffed. "They're full of themselves. Just because they've got a little more money, they think it's fine..." "To hell with everyone else. Brenna, your mother has been right all along about Ethan. You should keep your distance from him; no matter what he says, you can't forgive him." Even Ernst, who usually defended Ethan, sided with them. He said to Brenna, "You and Ethan just aren't right for each other." At Ethan's residence, bodyguards ushered Emmett and Elsa inside, standing watch at the door. Without Ethan's consent, they would not allow Emmett and Elsa to leave.

"Ethan, Brenna had the nerve to douse your mother with orange juice and hurl insults at her. That's out of line. Her attitude is all wrong; she has no respect for your mother. She needs to be put in her place. Why did you stopearlier?" Ethan, now calm, responded, "Brenna and I are done. She is no longer my girlfriend and doesn't need to tolerate my mom's antics. Stop acting like the world revolves around you, like everyone's obligated to obey you." Emmett bristled, raising his voice. "Isn't your mother older than her? Doesn't that make her an elder to Brenna? Brenna should show your mother srespect!" "Age doesn't justify insults," Ethan replied, his tone firm. “You heard what my mom said to Brenna. She told her she would never find another man after leavingand even offered to set her up with old creeps. Who wouldn't be angry hearing that? Honestly, I think my mom had it coming." Ethan spoke plainly, never one to mince words. He had clashed with his mother multiple times since childhood, so bluntness cnaturally to him.
Elsa spun around, jabbing a finger at him. “Listen to yourself! You've already broken up with Brenna, yet you're still taking her side? This is outrageous!" Ethan thought his parents were two peas in a pod, both utterly unreasonable.
"You nearly wrecked my brother's marriage, and now, you're poking into my life. Don't you see you're just stirring up trouble for others? My brother and I are both adults. We can handle our own lives; you shouldn't interfere in our business again." Emmett's eyes widened as he glared at Ethan. "How dare you say that?" Ethan met his stare, unfazed. "Did I say anything wrong? Lettell you something you don't know:"
Elsa and Emmett stared at Ethan, their minds racing, unable to think of anything they weren't aware of.
"What is it?" Elsa gripped Ethan's arm; she had a bad feeling NO m about this.
"Kenny and Rosanna are married. They've already registered their m marriage," Ethan dropped the news calmly, hoping to shift their focus to Kenny and away from Brenna.
