Chapter 294


    Brett''s gaze at this moment was like looking at a pile of trash. Kaley broke out in a cold sweat on


    her back, and when a cold wind blew, she couldn''t help but shiver. Her eyes were red, but it was


    hard to tell if it was from fear or the cold wind.


    At this moment, Kaley felt like a criminal waiting to be hanged, the rope already around her neck,


    and with just one kick of the stool underneath her, she''d be dead.


    But the video wasn''t over, and the conversation she had with Nn could still be heard.

    --"Nn, if you really care about me, help me get rid of Izabe. I hate her. Once she''s dead, Brett


    will marry me..."


    --"What makes you think Brett would marry you after Izabe dies?"


    Hearing this, Kaleypletely lost it, terrified to the point that her whole body was trembling, from


    her scalp to her toes.


    Panicked, she screamed at the crew behind the stage, "Turn off the power."


    But it was toote. What she said in the video reached the audience and Brett’s ears.


    -- "Six years ago, Brett almost died from drowning. He thought I saved him... Don''t worry, it''s been


    six years, he won''t find out the truth…"


    Brett clenched his already white-cold fingers. His cold, hard face grew even colder, emitting an icy


    aura.


    He couldn''t believe the scene on the big screen. But his vision was blurred, and there was only


    Kaley''s voice in his head.


    "Six years ago, Brett almost died from drowning. He thought I saved him..."


    That sentence hit him like a sledgehammer, leaving him stunned and feeling like his soul had left his


    body. He stood still for a good while without reacting.


    Was it not Kaley who saved him that year?


    Who could it have been?


    Kaley looked as if she had been struck by lightning, sitting slumped on the ground with her intricate


    makeup unable to hide her fear. She struggled to her feet, fearfully retreating backward.


    Brett grabbed Kaley''s arm, squeezing so tightly it felt like he was going to crush her bones. Kaley''s


    tears ran down her cheeks and onto the back of Brett''s hand.


    "Brett, it hurts…" she still looked innocent and pitiful.


    His lips moved, but there was no sympathy for Kaley on his cold face, only disgust. His icy gaze


    was startling.


    "Who saved me on Christmas Eve nine years ago?"


    "I...I don''t know…" Kaley shook her head.


    She really didn''t know who saved Brett. When she arrived on the scene, he was staring at the pearl


    earrings she wore, so he concluded that she had saved him.


    Since there were no surveince cameras and the police couldn''t find any clues, Kaley simply


    admitted that she had saved him. To her surprise, Brett hadn''t noticed anything strange in those


    nine years. But what she totally didn''t expect was that the conversation with Nn would be made


    into a video and yed today.


    Suddenly, Brett looked up at Nathaniel on the second floor.


    There was no doubt that the video was Nathaniel''s doing. Their gazes collided in the air, and the


    people in the room seemed to feel the tension between them.


    Nathaniel leisurely walked down the stairs, "Brett, are you satisfied with this ''big gift'' I brought on


    behalf of Izabe?"


    Izabe...


    He suddenly remembered the night he traded Izabe to the kidnappers to save Kaley. That night,


    he mentioned to Izabe that Kaley had saved him from drowning.


    What had Izabe said at that time?


    Brett''s breath caught in his throat.


    Izabe had said, "Brett, have you ever considered that many people wear those pearl earrings?


    Have you ever thought that Kaley might be lying to you?"


    Back then, he had been so confident that he wouldn''t mistake the person who had saved him.


    But now, the truth in front of him revealed that the person who saved him that cold night was not


    Kaley.


    He had allowed Izabe to suffer time and time again for a lying scammer like Kaley. In four years,


    he had given Izabete-stage stomach cancer, caused her to lose her child, and even used her in


    exchange for Kaley, leaving her fingers disabled and her body covered in over a hundred scars.


    Brett felt as if he had been struck by lightning, shivering uncontrobly, his face pale. The truth he


    had believed in for nine years had been exposed to reveal a cruel and bloody reality, like a


    hedgehog being stripped of its protective spines. Trembling, Brett couldn''t help but cough up blood.


    The surrounding reporters took note of the content ying on the big screen. Although the details


    weren''t clear, the presence of the fiancée''s intimate scene with another man at the engagement


    party was sensational enough.


    A group of reporters quickly swarmed, firing off questions before they even got close.


    Countless camera shes lit up Brett''s face, making it even paler.


    One reporter after another bravely threw out sharp questions, just like how they had treated Izabe


    when she emerged from the courthouse back then.


    "Mr. Windham, is the woman in the video Ms. Cot?"


    "What''s the rtionship between your fiancée and the man in the video?"


    "Did you know that your fiancée had affairs with other men?"


    At least the security team quickly stepped in to maintain a safe distance between the reporters and


    Brett.


    The phone hidden inside his jacket suddenly vibrated. Brett took it out, saw the number disyed,


    and stiffly turned his gaze to where Nathaniel was sitting.


    Nathaniel waved his phone, signaling Brett to answer the call.


    Once the call was connected, Nathaniel asked, "Brett, are you satisfied with today''s ''big gift''?"


    Brett''s grip on the phone tightened, his knuckles turning white, making a creaking noise.


    "Do you know why I had you use Izabe to exchange for Kaley all those years ago?" Nathaniel


    gazed at Brett''s ashen face leisurely.


    "Because Kaley told me herself that you care more for Izabe. If Izabe gets hurt, you''d be in


    pain. I didn''t expect it to be true… You actually traded her for someone like Kaley."


    "Your fiancée Kaley didn''t hesitate to wreck her own legs to y the pity card, just to get your


    sympathy and make you hand over Izabe to me. The funny thing is, you actually believed her."


    After saying that, Nathaniel burst intoughter.


    "Never thought you’d be yed and tricked by a woman, right?"


    Brett''s brain went nk, and it felt like his ears suddenly went deaf, buzzing non-stop.


    The image of Izabe when she was rescued came to his mind again, battered and bloody, her


    eyes empty as if she was a dead person.


    He had nearly cost Izabe her life and almost left her in aa, all to save Kaley.
