Chapter 561

"I have no clue!" Ivan suddenly burst out, his hand fiercely pointing towards the winding river outside the balcony, "She fell down there, and you're telling me you don't know? She's gone, man, she's never coming back!"

"You're talking nonsense!"

Brandon was clearly riled up by his words, cutting him off sharply.

But this did not stop Ivan, who, seemingly using the moment to vent his emotions, sneered even more scornfully, "Brandon, you finally got what you wished for - you killed her! If it weren't for you forcing her to stay by your side, she would never have died. She was supposed to live as she did in Wye City - devoted, motivated, happy, fulfilled... it was your damn selfishness that killed her!"

"She's not dead!" Brandon retorted coldly, refuting him word by word, as if convincing himself, "You hid her away, didn't you? Otherwise, why the hell did you suddenly resign? Why have you disappeared after her accident?"

"My resignation gave Mr. Crawley great hope, didn't it?" Ivan sneered as if he heard a great joke, a smirk appearing on his lips, "Isn't Mr. Crawley always all about evidence? If you think Sophia is with me, go ahead and search. Search anywhere, the whole damn city, the entire world even - go on, search! Aren't you capable? Didn't you find her when she was on the other side of the globe? Continue searching, then, why don't you dig full fathom five to find her?"

By the end, Ivan couldn't control his emotions and roared out loud.

His uncontrollable outburst gradually snuffed out the flicker of hope that had ignited in Brandon.

Watching Brandon's handsome face drained of color, Ivan seemed to slowly realize his own lapse, pursing his lips and turning his face back toward the balcony.

Mr. Evert, who had been nervously watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but look at Brandon with concern.

He hadn't expected him to seek Ivan out for this matter.

This was beyond his comprehension.

Whether it was Brandon or Ivan, losing control over a girl was beyond what he knew of them.
