Chapter 171
Hannah had helped the kids arrange their clothes and some of their toys and put them in the car.
Arianna had asked Hannah to stay at home while she went to drop them off at Sandra’s place because she knows how much Hannah is attached to her kids and she wouldn’t be able to leave them.
The moment Arianna left with the kids, Hannah walked inside the house, where she met Matthew and Jessica talking.
She walked past them and went to her room, she closed the door behind her and laid on the bed tiredly, lots of thoughts going through her mind.
Suddenly, she drifted to sleep.
Meanwhile, a male figure is seen sitting in a large hotel room, smoking Indian hemp while watching the TV. It was no other person but Wilson Colby.
He sighed softly as he watched the news of Arianna being released from prison. He was the one who had paid a woman to testify against Arianna, but now his plan has been ruined because of his son, Brandon.
He frowned as he puffed out smoke from his mouth. He was back for two reasons, to get rid of Arianna for good and he wouldn’t make the mistake he made the first time.
He would sit and watch her die before he left. But he knows Brandon wouldn’t let that happen, no matter what he does, Brandon would always save Arianna, so he would have to strip Brandon of his power, which is the company.
Without the company, he would not have the power he has, he thought.
Just then the door burst open revealing another man, one of his bodyguards.
“Jefe (Boss) Camilla had just left the house with the octuplets. What should I do jefe?” The bodyguard, whose name is Stone, asked in his thick voice.
There was someone in the house giving Stone all the information he needed.
“Don’t touch the kids, I want them unharmed, just follow Ariana and find out where she’s going with the kids,” Wilson said stone nodded in response and then brought out his phone and texted one of the other bodyguards to follow Arianna and find out where they were going to.
“I think it’s time I made my grand entrance and let them know I have arrived. Prepare my car, I want to pay them a surprise visit tonight” Wilson said and Stone nodded in response before walking away.
Meanwhile, Brandon is seen in his car, at the back of the station when suddenly the door opens and Liam enters the car.
Brandon stared at Liam who was looking so lean and tired. He had asked the police to release him without anyone knowing and he decided to pick him up himself.
“Thank you,” Liam said and Brandon looked away from him.
“I didn’t bail you out of prison because I want you to thank me, I still haven’t forgiven you for what you did, but maybe there’s something you can do to earn my forgiveness,” Brandon said and Liam’s face brightened immediately.
“I would do anything to earn your forgiveness, anything,” Liam said and Brandon glanced at him and sighed.
“My father is back in Atlanta.…”
“What?” Liam muttered as he opened his eyes wide in shock. He knows the history Brandon had with his father and how they both hated each other.
“Yeah, he killed Uncle Robert and now he’s trying to harm my mom,” Brandon said and Liam stared at him confused.
“Uncle Robert? I thought he was in prison?” Liam asked, confused.
“A lot happened while you were in jail, I would tell you all about it but not now,” Brandon said and Liam nodded.
“What do you want me to do then?” Liam asked
“I know my father, he isn’t going to stop. He tried to kill my mom once and I know he’s going to do it again.
I wasn’t able to protect her before but now I know I can protect her, I need to. I need to protect my family.
I need leverage. I need something or someone that I can use against my father to make him back down…” Brandon paused for a few seconds before continuing to speak.
“I want to know what my father has been up to all these years. I know how good you are at these things.
Find out what he’s been doing all this years, just find me anything I can use against him” Brandon said and Liam nodded in response.
Brandon brought out an envelope that was filled with money and gave it to Liam, then took a bag filled with clothes and some other necessary things and gave it to Liam.
“Your flight ticket and everything you would need is in there. The last place he was seen was Mexico.
No one knows you are out of prison, you are my only hope, Liam. Please do not fail me” Brandon said and Liam nodded in response as he brought out a face cap from the bag, put it on, put on black eyeglass that Brandon had given him, and then walked out of the car.
“I promise I won’t fail you,” he said and closed the door before walking away.
Brandon sighed softly and zoomed off.
His car came to a stop in front of his mansion. He walked out of the car and was about to enter the house when he heard his phone ring.
It was Edward calling. He sighed the moment he remembered he was supposed to meet up with him.
He had forgotten. He quickly answered the phone call.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Mr. Edward, I am so sorry, I had forgotten I was supposed to meet up with you,” Brandon said calmly.
“It’s fine, I saw the news. Family first, I understand. How is your mom?” Edward asked
“Oh, she’s fine,” Brandon said as he heaved a sigh of relief, thankfully he wasn’t angry at him.
“We could meet up another time, just let me know when you are less busy so we could talk,” Edward said and Brandon nodded and hung up.
The moment Brandon hung up, Edward turned to his daughter Isabella who was looking so furious.
