Elisa did not move from her spot on the couch. If it were anyone else, they might’ve left already from Brandon’s
words, but Elisa wasn’t anyone else. She was in no rush to say anything. She had her gaze fixed on him minutely.
“If you don’t have anything else to say, leave,” Brandon said impatiently.
Elisa remained unmoving and said calmly, “I think my father told you not to tell me anything as he feared I’ll seek
revenge. I think he did that because he wanted me to live a happy life.”
Brandon only raised his brows in silence.
Elisa bit her lip and continued, “I understand now. This matter is too deeply entangled with Norman and his family. I
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtneed to avenge my family.”
“It has nothing to do with me,” Brandon said resolutely. He stood up without looking at Elisa.
Elisa stood up and blocked his way.
“Forgive my frankness, but I know about you and my father,” Elisa said steadily.
Brandon’s eyes suddenly focused on her. Elisa could finally see some sort of reaction on his face.
She continued hurriedly, “You treated him as your biological father, and he loved you like his own son. During that
time, I was married, and you wanted nothing to do with us. I did not know anything then, but I think I should treat
you as family.”
There was a shift of expression in his eyes, and his face darkened. Elisa did not say anything important as she did
not want to expose Brandon. She knew he kept it in the dark because he had a bad reputation. He did not want to
tarnish her father’s name if the cat got out of the bag. He was scared she would repudiate his existence if she
found out. So, he did not expose anything. He didn’t mind if they continued to interact in this way.
However, Brandon did not know that Elisa was not someone who would ostracize a person or that she knew his bad
name was all a lie. He had never harmed anyone. The irritation within him grew as he watched her speak.
“I know you had a good relationship with my father and had a tough time when he passed away. You wanted to
avenge him, but you listened to his advice and let go of your grudge. You kept the secret for him from me. But…
Brandon, what are you actually thinking?” Elisa rattled on.
Brandon’s brows drew together tighter, “Let me tell you again, I have nothing to do with this matter. Stop trying to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfind my motives with your guesses.”
Elisa nodded her head in understanding. She wasn’t going to push him any further. He wouldn’t be Brandon
Simmons if he gave in so quickly.
“Okay. I will definitely avenge my father. I hope you’ll provide me with some evidence in the future,” Elisa said. She
did not try to advise him anymore. She had not come intending to win Brandon over today. She only wanted to let
him know her next course of action; he would undoubtedly start paying attention to her now.
Then… He would be there to give her a helping hand if things went south. So, she wouldn’t run into more trouble.
Brandon watched her leave without glancing back. The annoyance in his eyes only disappeared when he couldn’t
see her anymore. But, it was replaced with a complicated emotion.
