"Even if you want to do what you want, you don't need to worry about this. After all, this is related to Braden's plan," said Charlotte.
Braden didn't go with them this time. He was already waiting at the resort.
Recently, he was the most concerned with the issue with Ryland. Perhaps it was because he had interacted with Ryland that he seemed to bear more hatred towards the Stevens family. He had also contributed more in terms of the plan.
Kendall nodded. "I won't ruin Braden's plan."
"That's not what I meant. Braden isn't planning to deal with the Stevens family, but your brother, Caleb. His plans crumbled one by one. If you really want to help, it means that you will be personally forcing your brother into having nothing. Are you prepared for this?" Charlotte asked.
Kendall did not know how to answer for a moment. She sat there at a loss, and she kept looking about. Obviously, she had not considered this matter before.
Charlotte continued, "Let's go back. Even if you're mentally prepared, once your brother finds out that you're involved in this matter, what will he do to you? Kendall, I feel that you should always have a clear conscience when doing things. We're not dealing with your brother because of profits. It's because..."
Charlotte didn't go on. She turned to Avery, Peter and Zoe. These three people were the direct victims. She was only helping out because of Avery.
"I don't think I've told you before. My girlfriend died because of your brother," Avery said, looking at Kendall coldly.
He didn't like any member of the Stevens family.
Kendall's face became paler. She shook her head. She did not know about this matter, but she always knew that Avery hated her brother and father for a special reason. She did not expect that the reason for this was actually so evil.
"So, this matter is between me and your family. It has nothing to do with the others. You don't have to do it for me, for..."
"If this is the case, can you gather evidence and send my brother to prison?" Kendall suddenly interrupted Avery.
Avery chuckled and said, "You're really naive."
"If the law really works against Caleb, why would I
have to go this far?"
At this time, Rick came back. He sat next to Kendall and patted her on the shoulder. "Take a rest."
Kendall stood up in a daze and walked towards Sheryl and Olive.
"Aren't we being too mean to Kendall?" As he watched Kendall leave, Avery felt a little guilty. He hated those people in the Stevens family, but it was another matter for Kendall who did nothing wrong.
Charlotte was silent for a long time before she said, "Do you know that Kendall and Ryland aren't even related by blood?"
"I know." Avery paused for a moment. "She's quite pitiful too."
"Let's put this matter to an end." Charlotte paused. "Rick, I have something to say to you."
Shane glanced at her, but didn't stop her. He let her go with Rick. Avery immediately stood up and started gossiping. "Shane, are you letting your woman talk to her ex-fiance alone like this?"
"You should thank me for allowing your head to remain on your neck."
"Hahaha, you're such a joker." Avery laughed. "I wonder what they are going to talk about."
Shane picked up his book and read it, but his fingers tightened.
in a corner.
Charlotte handed Rick a cup of coffee. "I know you are very strict with Kendall. Most of the time, you want her to stay by your side like an emotionless machine. You can reason with her in everything. You don't have to decide everything. After all... she is also a person."
"Do you feel sorry for her?" Rick took the cup of coffee. The heat at his fingers made him feel good. This kind of feeling had nothing to do with Charlotte, it was mainly due to the warmth that he felt comfortable.
"I don't feel sorry for her. I'm thinking from her point of view. We are friends, but that's her brother. Tell me, if it were you, how would you respond?"
"I won't respond."
"She has to respond. Rick, I wanted to tell you that you don't need to participate in this. As for the Jane Corporation, we will find a way to deal with it later. Don't put yourself in an awkward position with Kendall."
