Chapter 393


    Kelly looked up sharply with big, teary eyes. She lowered her voice, asking, "Brian, do you have any


    evidence of that? If she was behind this, then how did she get her hands on the video?"


    Brian was unwilling to think about the video. In that video, Kelly wasn''t her usual virtuous and dignified


    self; she was so licentious that it broke his heart. "I don''t have any evidence of that," he replied in a


    deep voice. "I guessed it."


    Kelly was greatly disappointed; she had thought that Brian had evidence to help her prove it was


    Kendall who had gotten her into this state.


    "You have no enemies, but that incident seems to be aimed at you with the intention of ruining your


    reputation. I can''t think of anyone other than Kendall who would wish for your downfall," Brian


    exined as he analyzed the situation. Then, he continued, "She is the Parkers'' biological daughter,


    but she doesn''t have the ability to take over the Parker Corporation. However, she fears that you''ll take


    over thepany, so she wants to ruin your reputation. It''ll be good for her if you be a person


    hated by everyone. Even if we have no evidence, we can point the finger at her as the mastermind


    behind this. Don''t forget who she is now. She''s got Master Dn at her back. Only he has the ability to


    destroy all evidence so that no one can find out who the culprit was."


    After listening to Brian''s analysis, Kelly also thought that Kendall was the mastermind behind this.


    However, they couldn''t do anything as they had no evidence. "I don''t care who she is right now." Her


    eyes zed with venom. "If she really was behind this, I''d give her a taste of what I feel like right now—


    no, I''d make her feel even more miserable than I do!" Suddenly, she grabbed Brian''s hand. "Brian," she


    said tearfully, "I know that you''re nice to me. It''s my fault for having poor judgment… No, I was tricked


    by Jackson. He drugged me, which was why I… He tricked me into this. Brian, could you help me?


    You''re the only person who could help me now."


    Instead of withdrawing his hand from hers, Brian sat down on the edge of the bed. His heart still


    twinged painfully as he looked at her teary face. "Jackson drugged you?" There was anger and hatred


    in his eyes. I knew it. Kelly is such a wonderful girl. How could she possibly do that kind of thing? Turns


    out that Jackson drugged her and tricked her into this. "Do you still have the evidence? If you do, you


    have to show the evidence online right now. The people have discerning eyes. Once they see the


    evidence you posted, they won''t keep siding with Jackson. He''s shifting the me onto you on the


    inte."


    Kelly''s countenance changed. Having known Jackson for so many years, she had sincerely loved him.


    In the end, however, he shifted all the me onto her. It was too selfish of him to only take his own


    future into consideration without sparing a moment to think about her.


    At this very moment, Kelly was really filled with regret. She regretted having treated Jackson as a close


    partner. She had consulted with him about everything she had done and nned against Kendall. As


    he knew too many things, now she had to be cautious and was unable to fight back with all her might.


    "I have no evidence of that. Jackson has security cameras installed at home, but he definitely wouldn''t


    keep the security footage until now." She had been plotting against Kendall all this while, but little did


    she think she''d be the target of the cruelest and most borate plot one day.


    Brian changed the subject, though. "Tell me the truth, Kelly. Do you really love Jackson?"


    "Brian, I… I used to love him very, very much."


    Brian had to clutch the sheets tightly to suppress his violent urges. "If you loved him so much, why did


    you let him go out with Kendall? Kendall was so crazy about him in the past, whereas you said at the


    time that he and you were buddies. Yasmine said that Kendall had only fallen madly in love with


    Jackson because you had often spoken favorably of him in front of her and helped create opportunities


    for them. Kelly, have you and Jackson been nning some conspiracy together from the start?"


    As expected of the son of the Zorn Family. There are no fools in the business world, thought Kelly.


    "You didn''t seem drugged in that video. You two didn''t even eat anything. As soon as you met up with


    him, you two…" The more Brian spoke, the more bitterly disappointed he was. There was no drugging


    involved. Even now, Kelly is still unwilling to open her heart to me. She''s still lying to me. Is she still


    treating me as a rebound? She''s relying on my love for her, as well as the fact that I''m too busy to put


    my work aside and chase after her, unlike others who prioritize their love lives above all else. Is that


    why she''s been thinking of me as a backup?


    "Brian, I…" Kelly panicked somewhat. Not knowing how to exin herself, she could only hold Brian''s


    hand in a tight grasp. She couldn''t let Brian leave her. He was a clever person who outshone Jackson


    in every aspect. Moreover, Zorn Holdings was among thergest conglomerates of the city, so he could


    be very helpful to her.


    After taking a few deep breaths, Brian softened his voice, saying, "Kelly, my mind is in a whirl right now.


    You''re not feeling well either, so why don''t you have a good rest while I spend some time alone? We''ll


    talk when you get better." After a moment''s pause, he promised, "Nothing will change about the


    coboration we previously agreed on."


    They had previously agreed to work together to render the Parker Corporation an empty shell.


    Now that something like this had happened to Kelly, Adam and Charlotte would definitely be very


    disappointed with her. Moreover, Kendall was no longer the person she used to be, so Adam would


    definitely hand the Parker Corporation over to her. Brian had always found Kendall an eyesore, so he


    agreed to make the Parker Corporation an empty shell and split the profits fifty-fifty between him and


    Kelly.


    If Kendall didn''t want the Parker Corporation to go bankrupt, she''d definitely ask Dn for help. Dn


    was a doting husband, so he''d throw a lot of money into saving thepany. However, the Parker


    Corporation was such arge corporation that it would take an astronomical sum of money to save it.


    However strong Coleman Empire Holdings was financially, it''d be inevitably affected. By then, Zorn


    Holdings would absolutely be able to inflict heavy losses on thepany by teaming up with the


    Mendelson Group. If the Coleman Empire Holdings got hurt, the Colemans would have objections


    against Dn being the one who called the shots in the family. Also, they''d loathe Kendall for being the


    Young Mistress of the Coleman Family. Therefore, even if Kelly had an affair with Jackson and got


    pregnant with thetter''s baby, he wouldn''t give up working with her to set a trap for the Parker


    Corporation because of that.

    Withdrawing his hand from Kelly''s, Brian stood up and stared at her tummy for a moment with his lips


    pressed together. In the end, however, he turned around and left without saying another word.


    Kelly opened her mouth in an attempt to call out to him, but she couldn''t get a word out after opening


    her mouth. The news of her love affair with Jackson and her hospitalization due to a threatened


    miscarriage were a double whammy for him. What right did she have to ask him to stay and keep her


    company?


    Brian walked to the door. Putting his hand on the door knob, he looked back and said to her, "Kelly, I''m


    willing to ept you… if only you''ll abort the baby and give up on Jackson." Everyone had a past, but


    he loved her enough to forgive her past. As long as she was willing to get over Jackson and abort his


    baby, he would forget about her past and ept her.
