Chapter 836: Freedom Lies in Winning Tina's Case

At his side, Kael Bailey was still pouring his heart out to Max Bailey.

The man in shackles, his eyes brimming with tears, clutched his younger brother's hand tightly. His voice was choked with emotion. "Kael, you've suffered so much."

Kael Bailey's lips trembled. He opened and closed his mouth twice, trying to say something. But then, out of the corner of his eye, he caught Tina's icy gaze floating his way.

A sharp pain shot through his abdomen, and his face turned pale. Gripping Max Bailey's hand even tighter, he pleaded, "Brother, you have to save me!"

"You've always been the best to me. Help me, please. Help Tina win this case. If she wins, I can regain my freedom. I'm begging you!"

He whispered this right into Max Bailey's ear. No one but those standing close to them could hear.

Ozan Bailey tilted his head slightly, his sharp eyes catching the hesitation in Max Bailey's expression.

A cold, cunning glint flashed across Ozan's cloudy eyes. He smirked, his voice deliberately provocative: "Kael, don't make it hard for your brother. You saw the livestream earlier, didn't you? For his old flame, he's willing to risk your life. Otherwise, why do you think Tina managed to get us released early?"

His hoarse, grating voice struck Max Bailey like a hammer to the heart.

Max's eyes darkened with a murderous glint. "Ozan, I suggest you shut your mouth and stop stirring up trouble!"

But Ozan Bailey, now in a state of complete defiance, wasn't intimidated. He met Max's glare with a disdainful sneer, his tone dripping with mockery. "I'm just telling the truth. But let me warn you, that little brat Tina is capable of anything! If you ruin her plans, it won't just be you-your dear little brother will meet a grim end too!"

"You..."

Max Bailey's chaotic thoughts, stirred earlier by Vivienne and Kelly, suddenly felt like they were doused in ice water.
