A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 392

"That's right, honey. But don't worry. Everything will be clear within a few days. Paul is busy investigating what had happened back then."

It was no wonder that Paul didn't show up these days. He was supposed to be responsible for dealing with Sarah today, but he was nowhere to be found.

Linda wondered where he was, but Charles had now explained that he sent Paul to carry out another task.

Linda also knew about the matter that year.

Her university tutor once said that even if one was hypnotized, he or she would still have been able to tell others the secrets in their minds. That was probably what happened to Bun when she leaked the state secrets by telling the enemy the naval deployment.

The most suspicious thing was the fact that Bun had been sent back safe and sound.

If she had become a prisoner of war, how could she be sent back completely uninjured?

Linda didn't believe that the hostile country would be that kind.

Brian was deeply distressed by this matter.

Lord Ho once told him that after that battle, his parents shot themselves when the enemy troops discovered the strategic deployment line and arrested them.

If Bun really revealed a military secret, she would have become the person who caused Brian's parent's death.

Brian believed that Bun wasn't that kind of person. Some time ago, Charles persuaded Brian to be calm, because he had found some leads on this matter.

It seemed that the Shen clan had something to do with it. Brian had kept putting up with that until now.

In the beginning, he didn't look at Sarah with disgust. He just regarded Sarah as an ordinary woman whom he didn't like.

But after Charles told him that the matter, which had happened that year, was related to the Shen clan, Brian increasingly detested the Shen clan.

Brian was a stubborn man, and he would surely refuse getting married to Sarah, without caring about Sarah's and other Shen clan members' feelings.

If he would do such thing, he must be forced by the Shen clan.

But he was grateful to Sarah's father who rescued him when he was kidnapped, and because of that, Sarah's father had been critically injured during the rescue and became permanently disabled.

Brian hadn't reacted against the wedding also partly because of this.

But he didn't want to promise anything to the Shen clan by sacrificing his lifelong happiness. He thought that it was meaningless. Sarah wouldn't be happy for the rest of her life, too.

Now was an era when people could enjoy freedom in love and in marriage. Brian was determined to take a chance even if he would be branded as a rebel. He trusted Bun and her father's moral qualities.

After Linda, Bun, and Brian found out that there might be a chance of reversing the verdict of the case of that year, they all felt relieved, especially Brian.

If Bun was really the daughter of a traitor, Brian might bear a lot of pressure.

But now, there was a chance to reverse the verdict.

He would just cross the bridge when he got there.

"Let's go. Today is our lucky day. Let's go get a marriage license. It will represent the promise of our love."

Before they got the marriage license, Bun gently pulled Brian's sleeve and looked at him with her innocent eyes, "Brian, if we can't reverse the decision of that case and I really revealed the state secret, will you still be together with me?"

Feeling sorry for Bun, Brian held her in his arms and said, "My silly girl, of course, I will stay with you. I love you, and my love will not be affected by your past. If you really did that kind of thing, you must have done that unwillingly. You were forced to say those things under hypnosis. It wasn't your fault."
