My Mommy's Brave Heart novel Chapter 1283

Alden’s gaze was sharp and dangerous, while Everett looked calm.

He then explained, “I’m sorry, Mr. Winters. I didn’t mean to look into your family’s secret. I found out about it by accident when I looked into Ninian’s disappearance when she was a child.

“When I learned that Rowan had planted a biochip in me, it reminded me of Mrs. Winters. We were both victims, and be it for my sake or Ninian’s mother’s sake, I want to get to the bottom of this so that no one has to suffer like us in the future.

“It’s rare for me to be fully conscious when I meet you and Ninian together.”

Alden’s expression changed and was visibly moved.

‘I’ve always regarded him as a strong opponent. So, in my mind, Everett is a powerful and cunning person.

‘But I’ve completely forgotten that right now, he’s an actual victim with a biochip implanted in him. He can’t even control his own sanity.

‘I still remember the time when Mommy was manipulated. Mommy was strong-willed and Daddy was protective of her. Even so, they could not win against the biochip.

‘And Everett is just a boy in his twenties.
