    Hector handed him the script, calmly saying, “I didn’t save her to ckmail her into reciprocating my


    feelings.”


    The agent rolled his eyes and sneered, “Just keep making your silent sacrifices. If you can catch up


    with me, I’ll acknowledge you as my


    brother!”


    After speaking, the agent left in a huff with the script in hand.


    Briana returned home and spent an afternoon adjusting the recent design drafts that Pam had


    submitted. Only after sending them to Pam’s mailbox did she go downstairs to make a cup of coffee.


    Just after taking two sips, Melody’s call came through.


    “Briana, my uncle was taken away by the police.”


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    Her voice was low, devoid of any discernible emotion.


    Briana took a sip of her coffee, speaking in a nonchnt tone, “In private, you are family, but at MY


    Corporation, you are just colleagues. Moreover, his actions have already crossed the legal line. Any


    consequences are his own doing.”


    After a while, Melody’s voice finally came through.


    “I knew, but I still felt upset.”


    No matter how bad Owen was, he was still her second uncle after all.


    She had personally sent Mark in before, and now she had to send Owen in, she could never manage to


    keep her emotions in check.

    All the rtives at home said she was heartless and ungrateful. Ever since Owen was taken away, her


    phone had been almost blown up, mostly with calls cursing her.


    She even started to feel confused. It was Mark and Owen who did something wrong, so why were they


    not the ones being scolded, but instead, it was her.


    Briana was silent for a moment, then slowly said, “If you can’t get over this mentally, I can ask the judge


    to see if he can give a lighter sentence.”


    “No need, I’ll get over my difort after a while. But he vited thepany’s interests, he should


    receive the punishment he deserves.”


    Brianaforted her for a while, and after hanging up the phone, she couldn’t help but think of Isaac.


    On the day Isaac was sentenced, the Yoder family would probably feel as distressed as Melody did


    then.


    She had never received any kindness from any member of the Schneider family due to blood ties, so


    she couldn’t empathize with Melody and the Yoder family.


    She had only experienced the kindness of her foster parents and brothers, as well as some other


    people with no blood rtion to her Therefore, in her world, she would be kind to anyone who was kind


    to her. As for the blood–is–thicker–than–water kind of kinship, it was not important to her.


    While lost in thought, the doorbell suddenly rang.


    She got up and walked to the door, seeing it was Maxim, she couldn’t help but frown.


    “How did youe?”

    Maxim, holding a lunch box, looked at her and said, “I didn’t want to eat alone, so I came over.”


    Briana: “……


    She stepped aside to let him in, and after he had arranged all the dishes he brought, Briana couldn’t


    help but frown, “There are only two of us, do we need this much food?!”


    There were eight dishes and one soup conspicuously ced on the dining table, which would have


    been enough even for five or six people to eat.


    “If you can’t finish it, you can put it in the fridge and continue to eat it tomorrow.”


    Watching his presumptuous expression, Briana felt something was off and frowned, “You’re not


    nning on staying here tonight, are you?”


    Having been found out, Maxim simply stopped pretending.


    “You didn’t want toe to my ce, so I had toe to yours.”


    Briana red at him, “I’m really curious, is your face made of city walls?”


    Why was it so thick?


    Seeing her fuming, Maxim was afraid that she might kick him out in anger. He quickly pulled her to the


    table and sat her down, saying, “Let’s eat first, otherwise the food will get cold.”


    Briana nced at the dishes, thinking that the two of them couldn’t finish them anyway, she decided to


    send two to Hector.


    As for inviting Hector to dine with them, Briana pictured the scene and decided it was better not to.

    “Wait a moment, I’ll call Hector and ask if he has had dinner. If he hasn’t, I’ll bring him a couple.”


    As Briana’s words fell, Maxim’s face suddenly turned incredibly ugly.


    “Who did you just say it was for?!”
