Chapter 869



Kallie hesitated for a moment but eventually let Neal try to comfort Brysen.

Surprisingly, as soon as Neal held Brysen, she started to relax. She stopped crying and slowly became calmer. Kallie was amazed.

“I didn’t expect she would respond to you like this.”

Neal gently stroked Brysen’s hair and smiled.

“She has always been attached to me since we were together. I knew she had changed and didn’t seem to recognize anyone anymore. Honestly, I didn’t expect her to still be close to me.”

Neal looked at Kallie, his eyes filled with guilt.

“I should have protected her. Miss Nixon, please give me a chance to make amends. I want to take care of Brysen. You see how it is. Even if we hire other caregivers, they might still talk about her when we are not around.”

“Brysen can’t express herself, and who knows what she goes through when we’re not there. Even if you take her home, there are many inconveniences.”

Neal sounded sincere, and Kallie could see the love in his eyes when he looked at Brysen.

Kallie thought about it for a moment and decided this was the best thing to do. The doctor had said that Brysen would heal better if she was somewhere comfortable and relaxed. Kallie hated the thought of Brysen living like this, confused and scared, for the rest of her life.

Kallie sighed.

“Okay. Neal, please take good care of Brysen. I’ll come and see her every month, and if I find out you’ve been mistreating her, I won’t let you off.”

Neal was thrilled. He held Brysen’s hand as if she were the most precious thing in the world. He eagerly expressed his gratitude for Kallie’s consent, “Thank you, Miss Nixon! Thank you so much! I promise I’ll take care of Brysen. I’ve always thought of Brysen as my future wife. I love her for who she is, not how she looks.”

gαℓησν𝒆𝓁s․com takes you on a journey Neal seemed so sincere that Kallie nodded, hoping he would always be this way.

As soon as Kallie was gone, Neal dropped Brysen’s hand like it was a hot potato. He jumped up as if he’d been electrocuted and moved as far away from Brysen as possible. He even brushed off his clothes, as if he’d touched something disgusting.

Brysen watched him, her face expressionless, but tears streamed down her cheeks.

Kallie hadn’t noticed that when Neal held Brysen, Brysen wasn’t calm at all. She was too terrified to move.

Brysen’s eyes were wide with fear as she stared at Neal. She was too scared to make a sound.

Terrible memories flooded her mind, making her whole body shake. Neal didn’t feel bad at all seeing Brysen like this. In fact, he smirked.

“I told you to cooperate with us. But you didn’t listen. You have no one to blame for your suffering but yourself.”

Neal continued, stepping closer to Brysen.

“You know, if your face wasn’t messed up, I wouldn’t mind having you around. But I needed Kallie to hate you, to keep you away from her. Otherwise, what would I do if she found out the truth? Remember, your curiosity led to this. You brought this upon yourself. Kallie’s left you in my hands now. You’re going to have to do what I say. Be smart.”

Brysen froze, her body trembling uncontrollably. Neal’s eyes narrowed, a menacing glint in them.

“What’s the matter? Don’t you understand what I’m saying? Have you already forgotten the rules I laid out for you?” he snarled.
