Chapter 845

The handsome man stood protectively in front of the young girl, his eyes filled with anger as he glared at Vita's pretty yet deceitful face.

He couldn't stand Vita. During their time in the disaster area, she always seemed to be getting in between him and Jenna, intentionally or not. He thought she was crazy then, and apparently still is.

And now she had the audacity to come into his home while he was away with Jenna at the Graley Piano Competition and cause trouble. She always acted like such a hard worker when he brought Jenna home, trying to push her out and harm her.

Cody wasn't around much and Mrs. Wright didn't notice these tricky actions from Vita. But Brayden saw everything clearly - he had wanted her gone for a long time now!

Vita trembled all over as tears streamed down her face. She tried wiping them away but they just kept coming.

She cried silently but there was a hint of stubbornness mixed with sadness in her eyes.

After some time passed, she finally found the strength to speak up. "You've misunderstood me Master Brayden... I never intended on pushing Miss Shepherd out or hurting anyone else for that matter."

"I just wanted to find out how Mrs. Wright got poisoned... I'm afraid it might have been someone close to her who did it."

She took a deep breath before continuing. "Especially since even the chicken soup that Miss Shepherd made had poison in it... That's why I dared..."

"I don't think you're being daring at all," Brayden interrupted coldly while looking disgustedly at Vita's face. "You probably just want nothing more than pushing the blame onto Jenna!"

"Vita," He continued sternly. "My mom isn't here right now and my dad is staying by Mrs. Wright's side at hospital... It's only us three left here - what have you done? Do you want me spell it out?"

"Do you really have no ulterior motives towards the Wright family? Why else would you come all this way?"

Vita continued trembling uncontrollably until suddenly stumbling forward as if unable to bear any more pain.

She looked weak, innocent yet pitiful altogether.
