When Love Turns to Ashes

Chapter 163 She Was Just a Pawn!

Brend lowered his head and played with the lighter in his hand, sighing slightly. "No wonder she doesn't listen. How would she know that her so-called evidence is nothing compared to the three generations of the Melendez family's establishment? Even if Sara is arrested today, it won't shake the Melendez family in the slightest. On the contrary, the retaliation against her has just begun. Not to mention that Sir Baldwin won't let her off the hook." Caden smoked his cigarette and didn't say anything.

Brend furrowed his brow and said, "You're not really going to let it go like this, are you? I know you want to use Timothy to handle the accidents at the mine, but those are people's lives. The collusion between officials and businessmen is truly..." He was a doctor, instinctively carrying a heart of compassion.

He felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart, with one side being his close friend and the other side being the loss of lives in a safety accident.

Xander's mine was very profitable, but the real power was not in Caden's hands.

But it was Xander who handed over the management to the two elders of the Baldwin family.

These two individuals only cared about their own interests, turning a blind eye to safety, purely to pass inspections.

And then it happened, five lives were trapped inside, and over a dozen people are still in the hospital.

The two elders had been concealing the truth all along, but when they could no longer hide it, they finally approached Xander. Xander's intention was to handle the situation as an accident, and never report it, otherwise he would be restricted in the future.

So Xander repeated his old tricks and set his sights on Madelynn, making her target the wealthy Sara from the Melendez family. Who knew about this incident.

The cigarette was finished, and Caden extinguished it into the trash can. He said coldly, "That's what I thought. Timothy said that if we let Sara go, she would help with the matters at the mine."

Around the corner, Beatrice forcefully plucked off a few tree leaves, her face turning so pale that it almost blended with the wall.

She just came to find Brend to keep a record of her injuries, thinking that it might come in handy in the future.

But I didn't expect to hear such words.

No wonder she was forced to withdraw the case just now, and Caden remained silent.

Actually, this was also the result he wanted.

He saved her, but it was only to help Sara.

She was just a chess piece!

In his mind, interests were the most important.
