Chapter 427
She had only one heart, which she carefully presented to Maxim, only for him to ruthlessly shatter it,
and she lost the ability to love others.
Briana chuckled, reaching out to take the bowl from his hand, “Okay.”
She picked up the potion and drained it in one gulp. Because it was too bitter, her entire face
involuntarily wrinkled up.
Tyrone took out the prepared candied fruit and directly picked up a piece to feed to Briana.
Briana was taken aback. For the past two weeks, Tyrone had been politely keeping his distance from
her. His sudden intimate gesture left her somewhat at a loss.
Before Briana could refuse, a cold voice suddenly came from outside the gate.
“Tyrone, is this how you helped me find out where Briana was?!”
Suddenly hearing Maxim’s voice, both of them were taken aback for a moment.
Briana’s hand on the table involuntarily curled up, and it took several seconds before she slowly raised
her head to look towards the door.
Maxim’s face was taut, his eyes filled with the fury of an impending storm. Just by raising his eyes and
meeting his gaze, one could feel the oppressive aura around him, making it almost impossible to
breathe.
Tyrone quickly realized and had the servant open the door.
Maxim slowly approached Briana and Tyrone, his intense aura enveloping them as the distance
between them shortened.
It was not until he stood beside the two of them that Maxim turned to Tyrone and said, word by word,
“Don’t you think you should exin?”
Tyrone took a deep breath, about to speak, when Briana began to talk.
“Mr. Yoder, I was single and so was Mr. Moyer. There’s nothing to exin, the facts are just as you see
them.”
Maxim turned to look at Briana, his eyes as cold as a thousand miles of ice, radiating a chill that could
almost freeze a person to death.
“After you and grandma disappeared, I had been searching for you. But the news I got was that you
had been here for half a month. Do you know how I felt at that moment?!”
Briana chuckled lightly, “Norma is safe, she should be back in Bridenville in about two weeks. As for
me, I’m doing well, Mr. Yoder doesn’t need to look for me anymore.”
Maxim frowned, reaching out to pull Briana, but she directly avoided him.
Sensing her resistance, Maxim suppressed the anger in his heart and said calmly, “Briana, we’ll resolve
whatever it is back in Bridenville.”
Briana was silent for a few seconds, then looked up at Maxim.

She wanted to ask him, how he could act so well, entangled with Kiley when she was missing, and now
showing such deep affection in front of her.
“Maxim, weren’t you tired?”
Maxim’s pupils contracted, “What do you mean?”
“You clearly didn’t like me that much, yet you insisted on acting deeply in love. Weren’t you tired?”
Maxim’s face changed, his eyes bing icy, “Has something happened recently? If there’s any
misunderstanding, you can…
Before he could finish speaking, Briana coldly interrupted him.
“There was no misunderstanding. Half a month ago, I called you and Kiley answered. She said you
were taking a bath. Under what circumstances can a woman answer a man’s phone, especially when
that man is in the bath?”
Maxim frowned, “I can exin this.”
Briana’s expression was indifferent, “No need to exin, I don’t care anymore. I was nning to rify
things with you when I returned home anyway. Since you’re here today, let’s just get everything out in
the open.”
“This situation wasn’t as you thought. We were having dinner together at that time, and my clothes
were dirtied by the waiter. Coincidentally, the hotel upstairs was owned by the Schneider Group, so I
went to take a shower and forgot to bring my phone.”
Listening expressionlessly as he finished speaking, Briana looked up at him and said slowly, word by
word, “Maxim, why are there so many coincidences? Do you take me for a fool?”
A glint of coldness shed in Maxim’s eyes, “If you don’t believe me, you can go back to your country
to verify it.”
“There’s no need, let’s break up!”
