Twisted Ties of Love novel Chapter 170

Brett glanced at Liam with a cold stare. Liam looked back at him, frightened, and tried to change the subject, saying nervously, “Should we explain to Mrs. Windham?”

“Explain what?”

“Of course, explaining that you didn't cut off her brother's hand.”

Brett's eyes narrowed as he muttered, "She's already made up her mind that I'm guilty. Explaining won't make a difference." In a sense, he had brought this suspicion upon himself. If he hadn't consistently used Lucas as a tool to intimidate Izabella, she wouldn't have placed the blame on him.

"You should have someone investigate and determine the real culprit," suggested Liam.

Agreeing with the suggestion, Brett replied, "Then, Liam, go ahead and take care of it."

However, before Liam could proceed, Brett's expression softened, and he appeared deep in thought, as if preoccupied by another matter. Suddenly, he interrupted, "Wait, I have a question for you."

“From outsiders’ perspective, do Izabella and I look like a terrible couple? She says that I've never treated her like my wife.”

Liam treaded carefully and asked, “President Windham, do you want me to tell the truth?”

Having worked with Brett for so many years, Liam was quite adept at handling delicate situations. He had mastered the art of keeping a straight face through years of living on the edge.

Liam said, “The way things are now is not so bad, but your attitude towards her in the past was beyond terrible…” In his heart, Liam thought Brett had been cruel and heartless.

With a serious expression in his eyes, Brett inquired, "What can I do to make her truly feel like my wife?" The gravity of his question was evident.
