First love girlfriend?
Wasn't she Anthony's first love?
Originally, Anthony had been suppressing his feelings for her. Could it be that the harsh words he said to her before were all because he loved her too much and thus harbored resentment?
"How can he not forget?" Bryleigh's hope reignited in her heart.
To be honest, Anthony had been making headlines lately in his pursuit of his wife. She really thought that Anthony had fallen in love with Mavis.
Was he being sarcastic to her because he was still holding a grudge about what happened back then?
Although they only dated each other for three days, her charm and family background were not something that Mavis, a rural girl, could compare with.
Seeing her reaction, Alistair knew he had done the right thing. In order to avoid getting into trouble, he could only bear with it and apologize to his parents. He believed they wouldn't mind too much.
"Daddy often murmurs a name affectionately in his sleep, which was heard by Mommy and caused a big fight. Mommy has been reluctant to reconcile with Daddy because of these things that bother her." Alistair always used exaggerated means to convey his message.
Bryleigh asked eagerly, "Do you know what name he calls out in his sleep?"
"This is a different price," Alistair tilted his head.
"You are not qualified to discuss terms with me." Bryleigh's face darkened as she took large strides towards him and grabbed his small neck.
With increasing force, there were obvious whitish marks on Alistair's neck.
Just as the little one was about to lose air and almost faint, Bryleigh released her grip and said, "Go on."
"Cough, cough, cough-" Alistair took deep breaths of fresh air and choked until his face turned red.
The fear of almost being choked to death just now filled his entire mind, leaving him with no capacity for rational thinking.
This woman was too scary. Whenever there was a chance, he immediately ran away.
"Mute?" Bryleigh sneered.
As Alistair regained his senses, he suddenly realized a question. Despite being in the hospital, Moore had hinted to this woman to kill him. Why hadn't she made a move yet?
What was she waiting for?
After waiting for his response for a while and not hearing anything, Bryleigh grew impatient. "If you don't speak up, I have a hundred ways to torture you," she said.
Just as the atmosphere was becoming tense, the doorbell rang.
Bryleigh cleared her throat and asked gently, "Who is it?"
In fact, she was full of vigilance, and even the sound of a dropped needle can be heard in the quiet room.
"Miss, it's us."
Without guessing, Bryleigh immediately knew who it was and hurried to the door to open it.
The two men who came in looked very different. The one on the left was slim and had a pointed face with high cheekbones, while the one on the right was bulky and portly.
But these two had been following Bryleigh since before she retired from the military service. When her family encountered a very serious financial crisis and everyone was looking for a way out, only these two were willing to stick with Bryleigh, even if their salaries were cut in half.
"Mando, Barrel, why did you guys only come now?" Bryleigh remembered contacting them an hour ago.
"There's a traffic jam on the road, and I don't know what's gotten into the Callahan family. They're offering a reward of one million dollars with no limit for finding the kid. The people in Suham are going crazy searching for him."
It was not difficult to hear regret in Mando's tone. In fact, before they arrived, they also joined the bounty team.
