Chapter 673: Chapter 673: Abigail is My Happiness

Moon Lake Manor.

Abigail didn’t return to the manor with Brandon Piers until nine o’clock in the evening.

Grandpa already knew the whole story. His beard trembled with anger. "She is getting more and more muddleheaded. She never stopped causing trouble with your father because of a woman. Now, she’s using the same tactics on you. It’s simply preposterous!"

Brandon Piers had no interest in listening to Grandpa’s ranting. He replied lazily, "I’ll take Abigail to rest first."

He didn’t intend to let this matter go.

"Abigail... Grandpa will give you an explanation for this matter." Hearing Abigail, Grandpa’s tone softened with some apology.

"Thank you, Grandpa." Abigail looked particularly tired, her face pale. She replied briefly before being led upstairs by Brandon.

As soon as they went upstairs, a chubby little guy crawled towards her rapidly. Abigail was first taken aback, then instinctively wanted to squat down to hug Teddy. But she pulled at her tender spot. Her legs went weak, nearly causing her to kneel. She quickly shouted, "Teddy, don’t come over!"

The next moment, a man’s large hand had already lifted the child.

"Boo-hoo, mommy hug, mommy hug..." Teddy struggled in Daddy’s arms, wanting Abigail to hold him.

Abigail couldn’t resist her son’s soft voice. She felt that his pronunciation of "mommy" had become much clearer after just one day. She happily reached out.

However, Brandon directly lifted Teddy away. "You can’t hold him right now."

"It’s okay, I can be careful." Abigail couldn’t bear to see her son’s tearful eyes.

Unfortunately, Brandon, with a heart of stone, was unmoved. He directly handed Teddy to the maid behind him and then looked at Aunt Claudia. "Aunt Claudia, Abigail isn’t feeling well these days. Keep an eye on her and don’t let her hold Teddy."

"Abigail isn’t feeling well? What happened?" Aunt Claudia asked worriedly.

Abigail’s face flushed with embarrassment. "Nothing... It’s nothing, Aunt Claudia. Isn’t it late? Teddy should go to bed, right?"

"He was supposed to, but he heard your voice in the hallway and kept calling for you. I brought him over, but he insisted on crawling by himself." Aunt Claudia’s attention was successfully diverted by Abigail.

Abigail listened and reached out to rub the little guy’s head. "You little rascal."

"Rascal, rascal..."

"Ha." Abigail didn’t expect the little guy to mimic her, and she let out a surprised laugh.

Teddy stretched out his hands towards Abigail again. "Mommy hug, hug..."

But Brandon, protecting his wife, simply didn’t let their son get close. In the end, poor Teddy was forcibly taken back to the children’s room. After drinking a whole bottle of milk, he fell asleep.

Abigail had been tormented the entire night last night. Though she slept until the afternoon, she felt drowsy again as soon as she returned to her room and quickly fell asleep.

Brandon looked at her eyes, which had a shallow tint of green beneath them, and the lingering fingerprint on her left cheek. He felt heartache and kissed Abigail’s forehead gently before quietly leaving the bedroom.

As soon as he entered the study, Kennan Max stepped forward and knelt down. "Please punish me, Young Master."

Brandon glanced at him coldly. "What about those two?"

"They were severely wounded by a sneak attack." Kennan Max’s tone was calm, but those who knew him could tell that his subordinates’ injuries deeply pained him.

Brandon closed his eyes, "Compensate them with three times their annual salary. Once they recover, arrange for them to move to other posts."

"Yes."

"As for you..." Mentioning Kennan himself, Brandon paused to watch the silent, stolid man kneeling on the floor, "failure to carry out your duties will be punished with a six-month salary cut and cancellation of all bonuses for this year."

"Young Master, I..." Kennan thought he might not be kept on this time.

"That’s enough, get up. Tell me your investigation results." Brandon had no patience for Kennan’s excuses.

"The woman who replaced Bertha Swift and the ones who attacked us are from the third branch. The medicine was found by Madam. Adam Piers’ timely appearance seems suspicious, likely not a coincidence. The Young Madam could enter because of Benjamin Jones’ connection." Kennan Max immediately adjusted his mood and handed the findings to the young master.

Brandon frowned slightly as he looked through the detailed information. He wasn’t surprised that the third branch was involved in this matter. Nor did he think that Adam Piers’ appearance at the Waldorf was a coincidence. That kid seemed like a dandy but was cleverer than many.

However, compared to the first two matters, what concerned him the most was that Abigail knew that Benjamin Jones had been staying at the Waldorf for a long time and knew his room’s passcode. A hint of jealousy arose in him as he recalled Benjamin once competing with him for the surgical scalpel Abigail had used. Then, seeing in the report that they had grown up together, his jealousy intensified.

"Young Master..." Seeing Brandon’s prolonged silence, Kennan felt a bit worried, unsure if he had said something wrong again.

"Check what kind of leverage Oliver Piers has on Eva Bell. And..." Brandon said coldly, a hint of frost in his gaze, "I remember Third Uncle has had two bodyguards for many years. It’s time for them to retire."

"Understood." This time, even Kennan Max harbored anger, responding decisively.

"Okay." Brandon replied ambiguously, "How is Hughes?"

"Just released, adjusting. He wants to see the Young Madam." Kennan responded.

Brandon snorted. After being locked up for nearly a year, he still thought about his little pumpkin. "Tell him not to covet what doesn’t belong to him."

Kennan was speechless. "Yes."

After Kennan left, Brandon dialed an international number. It took a while for the other person to answer, grumbling, "Don’t you know there’s a time difference? It’s only five here."

Having gone to bed at two in the morning, Sofia Piers grumbled.

"She colluded with Third Uncle to set me up yesterday." Brandon didn’t listen to Sofia’s complaints. His face remained expressionless, and his voice, still hoarse, sounded cold and chilling to Sofia’s ears, waking her up instantly.

Sofia Piers felt uneasy, "Are you okay?"

"What does being okay mean? If we’re talking about life and death, I’m fine. But by other standards, yes, there’s something wrong, and it’s significant." Thinking back to the conference room situation, Brandon’s eyes darkened.

Sofia sighed softly, "Brother, what do you want to do?"

"Come back and take her away, or I won’t hesitate to act against her." Brandon spoke without much emotion. Although Eva Bell was his mother, she had repeatedly crossed his bottom line. He could no longer tolerate her.

"Brandon, she is our mother."

"Can a mother casually harm her children? Sis, have you really been happy all these years?" Brandon couldn’t stand Sofia’s view.

"I... Brandon, most people in this world aren’t necessarily happy." Sofia was stuck for a moment by her brother’s question, then sighed softly.

Brandon agreed with this, "That’s why my happiness is all the more precious. Abigail is my source of happiness. I won’t let it be compromised again."

"Brandon..."

"Sis, take her away. Don’t force me..." kill my mother.

The final two words remained unspoken, but Sofia understood. She pondered for a long time, "I’ll find a way."

"Thank you."

Brandon expressed his gratitude, though he never expected that Eva Bell would act faster than he did.
