Chapter 463:
On the way to the hospital, Amelia began explaining what had happened. Looking at Weston on the stretcher, she hesitated, her voice carrying a tangle of emotions. “Originally, the dagger in Brielle’s hand was meant for me p>
Wyatt didn’t respond. He simply wrapped his arms around her.
He didn’t wish Weston any pain. Still, he couldn’t help but feel relieved that Weston had shielded Amelia with his own body.
Shepard had not expected that the moment he stepped out of the hospital, Weston would sneak off on his own.
By the time Wyatt’s call reached him and he rushed back, the nurses had already wheeled Weston into the operating room.
Not long after, Danielle arrived with Weldon.
Danielle had been staying at her family’s estate recently and had only learned about what happened between Brielle and Amelia because of Weldon’s call.
Meeting Amelia for the first time left Danielle shaken. The girl’s face was a mirror image of the portrait in Weston’s study. A complicated mix of emotions swirled in her chest.

Seeing the look in Elmore’s eyes, Brielle was filled with hatred.
If he hadn’t kept pressuring her, she wouldn’t have ended up like this. But now she could no longer go back to the Chadwick family; the Figueroa family was her only refuge.
“Dad, the Chadwick family already found out who I really am. I don’t have anywhere else to go p>
“What did you just say p>
The instant the words left Brielle’s mouth, Elmore strode forward and grabbed her hand, his gaze dark with fury.
Right then, the butler rushed inside and spoke quickly. “Mr. Figueroa, the police have arrived p>
“What have you done?” Elmore’s eyes snapped to Brielle without a second thought.
Pushed by Elmore’s demand, Brielle began to recount what she had done at the restaurant.
