Chapter 258
Chapter 258 Murderer
Anaya and Hearst spent some time in the parking lot. By the
time they got home, it was already ten o’clock in the evening.
Anaya took a shower and then went to bed.
Anaya spent the next few days quite peacefully, except for a few times when Alfred reached out to
Anaya, wanting to know Bryant’s whereabouts, which Anaya simply brushed aside. Alfred failed to see
Bryant eventually.
Meanwhile, Joshua kept looking for Bryant and was so close to finding him out.
Worried about that, Anaya texted Silvia, asking if she had thought of a way to deal with Bryant.
A few minutester, Silvia replied: “I am now where he is
locked up.
Silvia had not been there over the past few days.
Being sheer torture to Silvia, Bryant was thest person Silvia
would want to see.
Anaya knew it was very likely that Silvia had already made a
decision since Silvia wouldn’t have been there the other way
around.
Anaya: “Text me after you’re done.”
Silvia: “All right.”
Then Anaya read some documents for a while. But feeling a bit
uneasy, she took the car key and went downstairs.
But the moment she was downstairs, one of her subordinates
called.
“Ms. Dutt, something bad has happened. Mr. Maltz and Mr. Tirrell are here now. And the people they
brought are pushing the front door of the front yard, so close to getting in!”
Anaya did not expect that Joshua would locate Bryant so
quickly. “Stall them and transfer Bryant to another ce. I will bring people over now!”
“Yes!”
Hanging up the phone, Anaya contacted Tim and asked him to bring people along. And after everyone
got in the car, Anaya
stepped on the elerator and sped all the way.
By the time she arrived, Joshua had already led his people past
the front yard of the vi and was at the front door of the
house, about to get in.
Anaya raised her hand, wanting to order her people tounch
an attack.
At that moment, amidst all the noise, she heard someone
shout, “Mr. Tirrell is there!”
Instantly, all the people present looked up.
On the balcony of the third floor, there was a figure.
The figure rolled outside of the railing of the balcony, as if someone had pushed him, and then fell down
quickly, ending up smashing onto the ground, with his legs and body twisting
into a bizarre posture.
Soon, everything was reduced to dead silence.
Alfred and Joshua stood aside, surrounded by tension on the
spot.
Noticing that the person on the ground had stopped moving, Alfred trembled a bit, his eyes reddening.
Then he walked over with difficulty.
And when he was around 20 feet away from Bryant, he seemed to have finallye to his senses and
sped up toward Bryant, picking up Bryant, who was unconscious.
Alfred was in so much pain that he began to sob, with his
mouth open, his eyes reddening, and the veins on his forehead
bulging.
After a long while, he finally spoke, his voice trembling
sorrowfully. “Bryant… My son! Stop scaring me…”
At that moment, in the quiet crowd, someone called out,
“Ambnce! Call an ambnce!”
With that, the yard was reduced to chaos.
Anaya, on the other hand, didn’te back to her senses up until the ambnce arrived and carried
Bryant away carefully
with a stretcher.
It was true that she did not inhibit Silvia from attacking
Bryant. But at the sight of Bryant falling down like that, Anaya was frightened.
Moreover, with so many people here now, it was impossible for
her to defend Silvia.
“Ms. Dutt, what should we do now?” Watching Bryant being taken away by an ambnce, Tim felt lost.
Anaya calmed him and said, “Go to the hospital and check out Bryant’s condition. Then keep me
posted.”
“All right.”
After Tim left, Anaya had the others guard around the vi in case Alfred or Joshua mighte back.
Then she walked into the vi to Silvia.
On the staircase on the second floor, shafts of bright sunlight
flooded through the 7-feet-tall window on the ground, among
Silvia sat on the cold ground, hiding in the shadow with her arms around her knees and her expression
dull.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, she looked up nkly and watched Anaya walk towards her step by
step.
Anaya squatted down in front of her and looked at her, asking, “Who pushed Bryant?”
Silvia always wanted to kill Bryant, but the thought of it implicating Anaya kept holding her back.
She would rather die with Bryant than drag Anaya down with her into an abyss like this.
Anaya knew in her heart about that. Therefore, she did not believe that Silvia would push Bryant down
when there were so many people around.
It must be someone else.
Also, when she was downstairs back then, she saw that the person who pushed Bryant was in ck-
sleeved clothes.
On the other hand, Silvia was wearing a white, thin-down
jacket.
Silvia’s eyes, which were dull before, started to focus on Anaya’s face. After a long time, she said, “It was
me who
pusnea nimI UOWII.
“It was Mr. Hampden who pushed Bryant, right?” Anaya
scrutinized her.
Silvia’s eyes shed as she denied it. “No, it was me who
pushed Bryant. It has nothing to do with anyone else…”
“Silvia,” Anaya said in a serious tone. “If you don’t tell the truth, it will be difficult for me to help you.
“I have more connections in Boston than Mr. Hampden, a foreigner, does.”
“My dad pushed it.” Silvia lowered her head. “In fact, 1
regretted it when I just arrived here. I didn’t dare to kill
anyone.
“But I didn’t expect that my dad woulde with me.
“He had a dispute with Bryant. And one thing led to another.
He ended up pushing Bryant down from the third floor.”
Silvia thought that she and Anaya hid it well and that her
parents should not know about Bryant harassing her.

Unexpectedly, on the day Kael was rescued, he figured out what Silvia suffered from in the basement,
judging from how Silvia reacted to things. Therefore, he secretly made up his
mind to avenge her.
“Where is Mr. Hampden! Aya askeu
“After pushing Bryant down, he felt lost. Therefore, I had people take him back.”
Silvia raised her head, her eyes filled with tears. “Anaya, am I a jinx? My adoptive fathermitted
suicide and jumped into the sea because of me. And then, you were implicated, having to deal with all
these troubles that I caused. Now it’s my father,
who has be a murderer because of me…”
Anaya reached out and pulled her into her arms,forting her. “This is not your fault, but the
perpetrator’s fault.
“Falling down from the third floor might not be lethal. Let’s just wait and see if the doctor could save
Bryant’s life or not.
Then we will contact thewyer and take the next step.”
Silvia nodded. Anaya waited for her to calm down and proposed driving her home.
“Anaya, I want to go to the hospital,” Silvia said, not intending
to go home.
Silvia was now eager to know about Bryant’s condition.
She couldn’t care less about whether Bryant was alive or dead,
but she didn’t want Kael to be a murderer.
Anaya hesitated and agreed.
In the hospital, at the door of the operating room.
Knowing that Bryant had fallen down from a building, Mia rushed to the hospital right off before waiting
anxiously outside the operating room with Alfred and Joshua.
And at the sight of Silvia and Anaya, the “culprit”, Mia jerked herself up from the chair and walked quickly
towards Anaya.
Then, with her hand raised and her eyes reddening, she enunciated every word with intense hatred,
“Murderer!”
Mia had heard Alfred say that Bryant was locked up by Anaya.
Therefore, in Mia’s opinion, the person who pushed Bryant
down today was Anaya’s people.
But just as Mia’s hand was about tond on Anaya’s face, someone grabbed it firmly.
It was Joshua, who then said, “The person who pushed your brother down from a building was not
Anaya. Don’t take it out
on her.”
