Twisted Ties of Love novel Chapter 403

"President Windham, Ariana's matter has been resolved. What else do I need to do now?"

As Izabella had guessed, Brett orchestrated the attack on Ariana by the person with a mental health condition..

Ever since the hot topic blew up yesterday, Izabella was the first person he thought of. He knew how much that cat meant to her, and her love for it surpassed her feelings for him.

The trending topic was filled with all sorts of things, but what stuck out most to him was "Casey and Izabella".

Their names together had an inexplicable pull.

In the years after Izabella's death, he stubbornly believed that nothing had changed. But in reality, everything was different. He was still stuck in the past, hoping Izabella would look back at him again.

Their relationship was the most familiar yet unfamiliar in the world. He knew everything about her, yet he couldn't have her.

The two of them, who had once gone to the city hall to register their marriage, now didn't even have a chance to stand together.

Brett clutched his chest, coughed, calmed down and asked, "Did you send Izabella the illegal files of X Entertainment as I told you to?"

"I did."

Brett fell silent.

Liam thought for a bit and hesitantly said, "I used your account to send them. Maybe Ms. Salotti has blocklisted you?"

Brett's face, already sickly pale, turned even paler at Liam's words, his eyes gloomy. "Who told you to use my account?"

Scratching the back of his head awkwardly, Liam explained, "I thought it might soften her up if she saw all you've done for her."

Maybe in the past, Izabella would have been moved by such a gesture. After all, she was easily comforted then. Just give her a piece of candy, and she'd melt.

But the Izabella of today was no longer that person.

Even when he knelt in the rain, hit the ground with his head on the ground, and begged for her forgiveness, she didn't soften. Would she soften over such trivial matters?

Impossible.

Every time he thought of Izabella's icy gaze, his heart felt like it was being ripped apart.

Brett touched his chest. He couldn't afford to be sick. Now, even if he were to cough up blood and die, nobody would feel sorry for him.

"So, President Windham, should I send them again?" asked Liam. "The shares of X Entertainment are falling. It's the perfect time to acquire the company. Why not just buy it? You'd be Ms. Salotti's boss then."

Liam thought it was a good idea, as this could bring President Windham closer to her. If he became Izabella's boss, her support, gave her everything she wanted, and took the initiative to care for her, they might have a chance to get back together.

"That will only make her hate me more." Brett knew better than anyone that Izabella was a confident, independent woman. She didn't like others controlling her life.

He was sure that if he successfully bought X Entertainment, Izabella would ask to terminate her contract, and it would cause a huge commotion.

Brett sat up in his sickbed and said, "Give me the computer."

Liam opened his laptop and handed it to Brett.

Brett's fingers rapidly typed on the keyboard, entering a page and staring intently at the falling data.

Someone was manipulating X Entertainment's shares. It wouldn't be difficult for Brett to figure out who.
