Brandan lightly pressed his lips together. The mountain road was rugged, and he really didn’t want Lady Hyde to go.
Looking at Lady Hyde’s pale, sorrowful expression, he didn’t quite understand why she was so upset. The person could be rescued today, and there’s still a long future ahead. Why be sad?
Brandan was pondering how to make Lady Hyde stay when suddenly, the panicked voice of the gatekeeper ca from outside: "Master, sothing’s wrong, soone has broken in!"
Brandan, already simring with anger, raised his head impatiently upon hearing the gatekeeper’s words. Who decides to cause trouble so early in the morning?
Brandan looked up to see a tall figure hurriedly walking in from outside. The sky was still dim and the light unclear, yet the man’s face was like the brightest ray of light in the dawn, instantly illuminating the morning.
Upon seeing the visitor, Brandan’s brow furrowed tightly. William Moore? What’s this guy doing at his place?
William Moore brought people who surrounded the entire courtyard, confronting the people from Hyde Residence. Brandan glanced at the towering bodyguards in the courtyard and asked coldly, "What do you an by causing trouble at my house?"
He really disliked this man.
Walking so intimately with Iris Harris made him feel disgusted.
At this mont, he didn’t want William Moore’s arrival to delay him; he needed to go to the mountains to exchange hostages with the kidnappers.
"Where is Iris Harris?"
William Moore walked up to Brandan and asked directly.
His usually calm and serene expression now slightly showed signs of anxiety. His gaze swept over the Hyde Residence, and almost everyone ca out because of his arrival. The servants hid on the side, secretly observing him, yet among these people, Iris Harris was nowhere to be found!
He’s here, how could Iris Harris not co out?
Brandan squinted his eyes dangerously upon hearing his words, "Why are you looking for her?"
William Moore suddenly reached out and grabbed Brandan’s collar, gritting his teeth as he looked at Brandan, "Brandan, I’ll ask one more ti—where is Iris Harris?!"
His eyes shot out a fierce light as if he were ready to shoot the man in front of him.
"Master Moore," Lady Hyde, who had been sitting on the sofa, suddenly spoke up, "Iris isn’t here."
"..."
Upon hearing this, William Moore seed to be taken aback for a mont, turning his head to look at Lady Hyde, his lips moved, but no words ca out.
Lady Hyde’s eyes showed a trace of sadness, "It’s all my fault. If you want to bla soone, bla ... I didn’t raise Brandan well, which led to him doing such a heartless thing..."
"Mom!"
"Shut up!"
Lady Hyde looked at him, "I am here, you don’t get to speak!"
Brandan pressed his lips together in frustration, feeling a bit unhappy.
"So, that news is true?"
William Moore’s voice beca extrely calm as he looked at Brandan, "You exchanged her with another woman?"
Brandan pressed his lips together, not believing he’d done anything wrong, but at the mont, for so reason, he couldn’t seem to respond.
Watching his silent expression, a flash of ferocity appeared on William Moore’s handso face. His fingers twitched as if he were about to pull out a gun the next second. After a long while, he finally looked at Brandan and said, "I regret it."
He truly regretted it.
"If I had known this would happen, I would have found a way to make her not love you."
William Moore stepped back, his gaze coldly fixed on Brandan, "How could soone like you possibly deserve her affection?"
