Chapter 429 How Could You Think That of Me
All of a sudden, Camila could somewhat understand Silas’s hatred. Anybody would choose to get revenge if they
had a father who not only shirked his duties as a father but also framed their mother, who had suffered all sorts of
abuse because of him. Then, she glanced at Silas suspiciously. “At that time, Lara and Edward must have been very
suspicious of you, right? How did you survive? Moreover, you even managed to help out your mother and Brian in
secret.” After saying that, she abruptly turned to look at him. “What Brian said couldn’t have been true, right?”
It wasn’t as if she didn’t trust him, but the way he was acting tonight clearly showed that he blamed himself for
what happened. If this incident had nothing to do with him, he wouldn’t act like that! In response, Silas lifted his
gaze and looked at her with an expression that seemed to say: ‘How could you think that of me?!’ Thus, she
hurriedly explained, “I know you weren’t behind it. But, the way you act makes me think that you were involved in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe matter somehow, right?” He sighed deeply before saying, “Yes, you’re right! My mother got into the car
accident six months after she left the Nolan Family. After they left, I began recruiting and training my own men in
secret. I didn’t have money, but Grandpa doted on me at the time. Thus, my allowance was never cut off. Isaac was
the first person I recruited at the time. He wasn’t chosen to be a bodyguard candidate, but I took him in because he
seemed capable. But, I didn’t hire him to protect me. At the Nolan Residence, I was protected by Grandpa.
Therefore, Edward and Lara didn’t dare to openly do anything to me. However, that wasn’t the same for my
mother and Brian. For that reason, I sent Isaac to secretly protect my mother and Brian. After that, he devoted
himself to protecting my mother for more than three months. During that period, he managed to solve some minor
troubles for them. Just as I was starting to let my guard down and focus on my own affairs, I received a phone call
from him one day. He told me that he had accidentally collided into the car my mother was in while he was driving,
and my mother was in the hospital for emergency treatment.” Pausing for a moment, he sighed again. “I was still
young and inexperienced, so I didn’t think too much about it. When I was older, I finally noticed that there were too
many coincidences lined up together for that incident to actually be a coincidence. Isaac was working for me, but
he ran into my mother. The main purpose for that was to turn us brothers against each other. You saw it for
yourself; Brian would still believe that even today. Secondly, they wanted to get rid of my mother lest she caused
trouble in the future. Lastly, Brian would be a goner without my mother. It was three birds with one stone.
Unfortunately, I didn’t consider it so deeply at the time. Back then, Isaac knelt in front of me and begged for mercy.
So, I sent him to the police station after beating him up. By the time the pieces of the puzzle clicked in place for me,
he was gone without a trace. Since then, I’ve been looking for him. I’ve been blaming myself for it-why didn’t I
notice what they did in the first place?”
Upon hearing that, her expression became one of disgust. After that, she comforted him, saying, “You were young,
naïve, and inexperienced back then. Moreover, no ordinary person could have imagined that they would do
something so unimaginably cruel! Still, don’t you think it’s strange that the man you’ve been looking for all this
while would suddenly turn up at your doorstep?” He replied, “Yes, they must be trying to create a rift between Brian
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand me on purpose. I guess they felt that we were getting along too well. So, they released that man to confuse us
with falsehoods.”
She asked, “Do you mean Lara and your father?” In response, he looked gloomy. “Who else could it be if not
them?” On the other hand, she looked extremely concerned. “But, how are you going to explain this to Brian? After
all, Isaac was one of your men! I believe everything you said, but Brian might not!” .
Holding her hands in his, Silas’s thumb gently made circles against the back of her hand as he mockingly smiled
and said, “They must be certain that Brian and I will turn against each other like how we did before. That’s why they
released Isaac. But, they’ve forgotten that I’m no longer the same person I was back then. If it wasn’t out of
respect for Grandpa, we might have been at each other’s throats a long time ago. For now, I want Grandpa to live
out the rest of his life peacefully. I will get my revenge on them sooner or later. Besides, I have sufficient reasons to
make Brian believe me.” Then, Camila stared at him in surprise. “What?”
