Betrayed, Then Back For Blood

Chapter 266

:

Briar was still frozen in place, her face filled with disbelief.

After a long pause, she finally found her voice. “Connor, did Freddie show any evidence?”

Without evidence, she couldn’t just blame her grandpa based on his word alone.

When Zeke was alive, his greatest focus was finding the culprit behind her mom’s death.

Even on his deathbed, Zeke kept reminding her uncles to find the culprit and avenge her mom at all costs.

Zeke had spent the latter half of his life relentlessly searching for the real culprit behind her mom’s death.

He secretly hid in the study every day, looking at her mom’s photo album and reminiscing.

And he did everything to protect Briar, just because she was her mother’s only child.

He was the one who had always treated her with boundless kindness, protected her with unwavering care, and lit the beacon that guided her on the road to vengeance.

On the other end of the line, Ian cleared his throat. “Briar, the evidence is in the safe deposit box Zeke opened at Shrewy Bank before he died…”

Briar knew Zeke had opened a permanent safe deposit box at Shrewy Bank.

‘But if that box holds the evidence of what led to my mother’s death… Briar trembled at the thought.

Ashton didn’t know what the safe deposit box meant to Briar, but he could make a rough guess.

Ashton quickly pulled Briar close, worried she couldn’t handle the shock.

“Don’t get ahead of yourself. We don’t have solid evidence yet, do we? We can’t convict Zeke based on Freddie’s statement alone. Let’s talk to your uncles first and decide on the next step.”

Briar nodded, her voice hoarse, “Okay.”

Ashton also instructed Connor over the phone to have Brandon return to Dasmieca to track down Brody, insisting that he must be found before they got back.

They couldn’t let them get away this time.
