Chapter 682: Chapter 682: Let Her Die

"Brandon, no matter what happens, stay calm." Sofia Piers’s heart jumped to her throat.

Brandon Piers didn’t expect his sister to show up at this moment. Seeing her anxious, urgent, and worried expression, the violent aura that arose from his heart slightly dissipated, and he gradually loosened his grip on Eva Bell.

"Cough, cough, cough... cough, cough..." As soon as Brandon let go, Eva’s body slid to the ground and began to cough uncontrollably. Her once-beautiful face, now aged, turned red and purple from the violent coughing.

"Brandon, what exactly happened?" Sofia had just returned from F Nation and had no clue what was going on, what could make her perpetually calm brother lay a hand on their mother.

"She had Abigail kidnapped."

When Brandon said this, the coldness in his eyes made Sofia shiver. She couldn’t help but look at their mother on the ground, "Mom, how could you be so foolish!"

"Cough, cough, cough... you think it’s my fault too? Since you all think it’s my fault, then... cough, cough, cough... it’s my fault." Eva coughed as she spoke, "I admit... cough, cough... that I had Abigail Green taken away. As long as you announce your engagement to Bertha Swift, I’ll have them release her. Otherwise, cough, cough... I’ll have them kill her!"

"You wouldn’t dare!" Brandon rushed forward again.

Sofia pulled her brother back and shook her head at him, then turned to their mother, "Mom, so many years have passed. Dad and Aunt Minnie are gone. Why can’t you let go? Is it worth ruining Brandon’s happiness because of your resentment?"

"His happiness? The man is my child. To nearly strangle his own mother for the sake of an unrelated woman. You still think that woman can make him happy? He’s just as bewitched as your father by that vixen. I’m doing it for his own good, cough, cough, cough..." Eva’s cough worsened with her agitation.

Brandon’s face looked terrible, and just then, his phone rang. He hurriedly answered it, hearing Kennan Max’s heavy voice, "I’m sorry, Second Master. The school is locked down, but we haven’t found her. I suspect she has been taken out of the medical university."

"Keep looking," Brandon said, then turned to Eva. "To get someone out of the medical university so quickly, you must be cooperating with more than just the third branch?"

"You’ll never find her." Eva’s face was twisted with a smug smile. "But as long as you agree to announce your engagement to Bertha Swift, I’ll release her."

"Dream on. There’s no way I’ll marry another woman!"

"Then let her die. You must already know I had Ruby Green’s biological father take her. You know how much he hates Abigail better than I do. If your people are even a little bit late, she might already be dead!" Brandon’s persistent protection of Abigail Green made Eva extremely angry, and she roared in a low voice.

Sofia pulled at their mother, "Mom, calm down. We are family!"

"Family? I don’t think so. Henry Piers only ever considered Minnie Swift that bitch and her daughter as family. Your dear brother only considers that bitch’s daughter as family. They’ve all been bewitched by them. There’s no way I’m letting them get their way, cough, cough..."

"Mom, it’s not like that..."

"Shut up. What? Are you taking their side too?" Sofia tried to persuade her mother, but Eva turned and roared at her.

Sofia was silenced, still wanting to say something, but Brandon pressed her down. He stared at his disheveled mother on the ground, who no longer had any semblance of a noblewoman. "As long as I don’t give up on Abigail, you won’t let us be at peace, right?"

"Yes, as long as I’m alive, you two won’t be together. Even if you rescue her today, what about next time? And the time after that? You can’t always be prepared, right?" Eva sneered, not even knowing what she was insisting on anymore; the more her son loathed her, the more she hated the Swift mother and daughter.

"Mom!"

"You..." Brandon’s hand trembled lightly with anger, his gaze growing colder. "You caused Dad’s car accident back then, didn’t you?"

Eva’s body suddenly stiffened. "What nonsense are you saying?"

Brandon closed his eyes deeply. "Do you think if I send you to prison, you can still harm her?"

"Brandon Piers, you dare!" Eva stood up abruptly, pointing a finger at Brandon’s nose and cursing him.

Sofia was also shocked and grabbed Brandon’s hand, "Brandon, don’t act recklessly. If you send Mom to prison, it won’t be good for you either. Calm down first and rescue that girl, alright?"

"Sis, you heard it too. If we don’t send her to prison, we will never have peace." Brandon’s voice was calm but made Sofia shiver all over.

Eva laughed, "For that woman, you not only framed your own mother but also want to send me to prison. And you still claim you’re not bewitched? Brandon Piers, I think you’ve gone mad!"

Brandon said nothing, only stared coldly at his mother.

Eva became panicky under his gaze. "What are you going to do? Do you believe I’ll have her killed right now?"

"Brandon, don’t do anything rash. Mom, let that girl go, okay?" Sofia felt stuck in the middle. Over the years, she had suffered a lot because of their mother, but she couldn’t watch her brother send their mother to prison either. That would drag the Piers family down too.

If the Bells turned against the Piers family, Brandon’s future would become incredibly difficult.

Brandon didn’t speak, just stared intently at his mother.

At that moment, his phone rang again. Brandon closed his eyes and answered, "Speak."

Kennan Max immediately reported, "Lawyer Jones suspects the young lady was taken away in a garbage truck. We have started investigating and found tracks of Johnson, but he wasn’t the one who knocked her out. Hughes is tracing the route. We should have a lead soon. Do you want to come over?"

"Yes." Brandon nodded, hung up the phone, and looked deeply at his mother. At this moment, Eva’s phone, which had previously been blocked, also began to ring.

The room was silent for a moment.

Eva’s body was still shaking from Brandon’s earlier chokehold, but after glancing at the number, she gave Brandon an ominous smile.

Brandon didn’t move, watching Eva answer the phone.

"Madam, the person has been caught. What are your orders?" the man on the other end asked in a cold, mechanical voice.

"Well done." Eva hung up the phone and looked at Brandon. "I’ll give you one minute, either announce your engagement to Bertha Swift, or I’ll have him kill Abigail Green now. Even if you send me to prison, it will have been worth it."

After all, no matter where she lived, she was just a walking corpse. To have her revenge on Minnie Swift, it was worth it.

Brandon’s eyes turned red.

Eva wasn’t afraid at all. She really wanted to see what her dear son would choose.

Brandon clenched his fists tightly. He knew his people would find Abigail, but it would take time. Killing someone only took a few seconds. He couldn’t take that gamble. So, as Eva picked up her phone to give the order, he suddenly said, "Fine."

His heart felt like it was being torn apart.

But with such a mother, even if he saved Abigail today, what about the future? He couldn’t always have Abigail live in fear with him.

So... fine.
