"Or what?" Brandon interrupted her with a grim look on his face. "You want to kill us?"
Sydney frowned and then smiled, "No. After all, it will get my hands dirty, but it's not impossible for me to kill you in other ways, Brandon."
She suddenly took a step forward, lowered her voice, and said coldly, "I know you let Madeline and Kaylie poison my father. And you have done some other things. As long as I get evidence, you will be sentenced to death."
As he heard these words, Brandon's pupils suddenly shrank, and his face went white.
He looked at Sydney in shock as if asking how she knew this.
Sydney just sneered without answering. She then carried the mugwort cake and left the dessert store.
Brandon looked at her back with ghastly eyes.
A few years ago, he paid Kaylie and Madeline to poison Harry. He did it very secretly and did not even tell the people around him.
He originally thought that no one else would know about it.
Unexpectedly, reality gave him a hard slap. Sydney found out.
Did Madeline tell her this?
No.
If Madeline had told Sydney that she had poisoned Harry, Sydney would not have let Madeline go.
So Madeline wouldn't be that stupid.
Someone else must have told Sydney.
As for who did that...
Brandon's eyes narrowed, filled with viciousness.
He would definitely find that person and get him killed. Otherwise, that person would become a big threat.
"Darling, what are you thinking? You look so scary!" Mrs. Madden was shocked to see Brandon's fierce face.
Brandon's eyes flickered. He hid his malice, put on a calm look again, and shook his head at her. "Nothing."
Hearing this, Mrs. Madden did not ask more questions. She lowered her eyes and said in a despondent tone, "Why is there no red mole on Sydney's wrist?"
"What do you mean?" Brandon frowned at her. "Do you want Sydney to be Clarice?"
"No, no, no." Mrs. Madden shook her head and waved her hand. "Of course not. It's just that Sydney is so much like Clarice. She was adopted two days after Clarice was taken away by Harry. Besides, Sydney's face resembles your mom's, and the scar on Sydney's wrist is in the same place as the red mole on Clarice's, which makes me suspect that she is Clarice. The most important thing is that she loves mugwort cakes. Did you see it just now?"
She grabbed Brandon's collar with a smile on her face, excitedly saying, "She loves mugwort cakes. It has a bitter taste. Most people are not used to this taste, so few people love it. I'm a little disappointed that Clarice does not inherit my taste, yet Sydney, who shares so many similarities with Clarice, likes it, which makes me feel strange."
There was inexplicably a little bit of joy in her heart.
As he looked at Mrs. Madden's smiling face, Brandon's eyes darkened.
When it came to Sydney, she was so happy.
Did she not want Sydney to be Clarice?
Brandon sighed and patted the back of his wife's hand. "Well, don't talk about it anymore. No matter how much you say, Sydney is not Clarice. We've found Clarice and taken her back. Even though there are many similarities between Sydney and Clarice, they are just coincidences. I don't know why you're so obsessed with the idea that Sydney might be Clarice. You've even forgotten that Clarice is back with us. But anyway, it's not right. You broke Clarice's heart last time. If you hurt her again, Clarice will have a problem with you."
Mrs. Madden did not say anything.
Of course, she knew she was wrong to do so.
But for some reason, when Mrs. Madden saw Sydney, she inexplicably cared about Sydney and wanted to think of Sydney as Clarice.
Sometimes, Mrs. Madden even felt that Sydney was more like their daughter than the Clarice around them.
Sydney had too many things that reminded them of Clarice, such as the time of her appearance, the food she and Mrs. Madden both liked, her face similar to that of Brandon's mom, and the feature that her and Clarice's wrists shared.
The Clarice beside Mrs. Madden, on the other hand, seemed to have none of them.
