Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

Chapter 861

"Brandon, you were just filling the emotional void I left in her life over the past five years. Give it time, and I'll show you who the right person for her really is!" Tom declared.

Brandon dismissed his provocation completely. "Mr. Genge, there's a difference between a devoted boyfriend and a scumbag ex who cheated and got caught in bed. I think Valarie knows how to choose." Ignoring the ugly expression that twisted Tom's face, he turned away, carrying Valarie in his arms. He helped her into the car and instructed the driver to start driving.

When the driver caught sight of Brandon's grim expression in the rearview mirror, he shuddered and nervously pulled down the privacy partition.

Only after the partition was fully raised, and Brandon made no objection, did the driver finally breathe a sigh of relief.

With the barrier up, the oppressive atmosphere dissipated, and the driver visibly relaxed.

In the back seat, Brandon's gaze fell on Valarie, who was leaning against the left door, fast asleep. His expression darkened. She seemed to be sleeping soundly.

Upon remembering the worry he'd felt when he couldn't find her and the anger that surged when he learned Tom had taken her, Brandon's jaw clenched. His gaze hardened, and he reached over, pulling her gently into his arms.

His movements disturbed a few strands of Valarie's long hair, which tickled her face, causing her to instinctively reach up and scratch.

Watching her remain blissfully unaware, Brandon felt a surge of anger rise within him. He gripped the back of her neck and bit down hard on her lush, red lips.
