Before Brittany could figure things out, there was a knock on her office door.

It was Holden.

"What brings you here, bro?"

"Bri." Holden looked worn out from days without proper rest. "I came to ask for your help..."

"If it's about Saskia, then I think there's nothing to talk about."

Brittany saw right through Holden's visit and knew it was about Saskia, which made her displeased. "Bro, I was in the police station for seventy-two hours without a bite or a sip. During those seventy-two hours, do you think Saskia was worried about me, or was she worried about her plans falling apart and getting a slap on the wrist?"

With just one sentence, Brittany left Holden speechless.

After a long pause, Holden said in a deep voice, "Bri, I was wrong today. I'm sorry. I won't say things like that again."

"Even though I'm not your biological sister, I don't expect you to take sides. But you should know, not everyone should revolve around Saskia."

After Holden left, Brittany dove into her work.
