Chapter 1249:
Ernst looked at her with interest. “Did you end up selling your firewall system to the police?”
Brenna laughed. “1 did. | just duplicated my firewall and had Joe take care of the installation for them. Got fifty
million for it—though honestly, with how valuable it is, that price almost seems too low.”
Shepard shot her an approving look. “You made fifty million with a program you put together in no time. That's
impressive.”
Giselle thought for a moment, then said, “Fifty million is nowhere near enough. There's no way my daughter's
work should go for so little. Two hundred million would be more like it.”
“You are right, Mom,” Brenna responded. “But I'm not after more money. For me, this is about building
connections—having friends at the police department could be useful down the road.”
Meanwhile, since Gracie had paid off her debts and had savings now, her spirits had been high. The deal with
Waldo was also on track, moving smoothly into the hands-on phase. A solid paycheck each month made Gracie
feel like her life was finally turning around.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat afternoon, after leaving the office, she drove home. When she stepped out of the elevator, she was startled
to see Rosie waiting right outside her apartment.
Dressed in a black dress, mask, sunglasses, and a wide-brimmed hat, Rosie had gone to great lengths to hide
her identity, but Gracie still recognized her right away.
“It's only been three months since everything blew up, yet you dare to cback now?” Gracie hurried to
unlock the door and waved Rosie inside, not wanting anyone to see.
To spot her in the hallway, Rosie seemed just as worried about being seen. Otherwise, she probably would have
suggested meeting somewhere else.

“I had to cback. My investments here are massive, and business is better than ever. Orders keep coming in,
and my company’s thriving. The police haven't hassledat all. Why wouldn't | return?”
Gracie set a glass of water on the table and took a seat across from Rosie. “I still think the Harper family won't
let things go so easily. You should be careful. What do you need fromthis time?”
Gracie couldn't help but keep her guard up; Rosie always seemed to have sschin mind.
Rosie pulled a folder from her bag and slid it across the table. “Take a look at this. It's a new drone project from
Plieca. It’s just getting started and still raising money. The Plieca royal family has put together a dream team to
go global. The Mitchell Group's drones can’t compete with what we're building. We already have ten-year
contracts signed with more than thirty countries.”
Gracie pored over the documents, seeing real promise in the project.
“So, why are you showingthis?” she asked.
Rosie’s voice was calm. “We're still looking for new investors. If you're interested, you can consider investing in
this. Haven't you ever wanted to see the Wilson Group back on top?”
Rosie keenly understood the storm of emotions swirling within Gracie. Once, Gracie had been the daughter of the
CEO of the Wilson Group, and she had basked in the glow of admiration, with suitors vying for her attention at
every turn. But now, everything was different.
“Your talent shines brightly,” Rosie said with warmth. “Ethan speaks highly of you, entrusting you with such a
pivotal project, which you've handled with remarkable finesse. It's a testament to your skill, and I'm convinced
you have an astute mind for business.”
