?Chapter 762:


    Her tone dripped with venomous sarcasm, and she was this close to rolling her eyes at Brendon.


    Brendon had been ridiculed so harshly that his face twisted with irritation, and in a fit of frustration, he let out a cold, mockingugh. “What a joke! Fall for you? I already told you—I’ll never love you. Not in this lifetime.”


    “In that case, stop showing up in front of me and making a nuisance of yourself,” Christina fired back icily, her eyes gleaming with contempt as she shot him a scornful look.


    Brendon, clearly vexed, furrowed his brows and lunged forward to seize her hand, but she dodged his extended hand without hesitation, fueling his fury even more.


    He hissed, “You were once my wife, and now look at you. Aren’t you the least bit ashamed of yourself? If Grandma saw you out here, flirting with random men like it’s nothing, she’d be utterly disappointed in you.”


    Christina let out a soft, mockingugh. “Oh, don’t worry. Bethel might be disappointed in you, but she’d have nothing but pride for me. Besides…”


    “What?” Brendon blurted out instinctively, unable to mask the flicker of anticipation in his voice. He stared at her, a secret thrill stirring in his chest. Christina had once been madly in love with him. Surely, a part of her still had feelings for him, right? No matter how outstanding these three men might be, none of them could truly rece him in her heart.


    “You still owe me those shares—pay them back soon!” Christina snapped, her tone frigid and upromising.


    Brendon’s expression froze. Of all the things she could’ve said, he hadn’t expected that. All she cared about were those shares? Shouldn’t she be consumed with thoughts of him instead?


    Dn’s gaze turned colder, his tone cutting like steel. “Looks like Mr. Dawson’s sense of integrity is questionable. Maybe it’s time I had a chat with a fewpanies that work with the Dawson Group.”

    “Are you threatening me?” Brendon growled, his re sharp enough to wound, his face tightening with rage. Why was Dn always leaping to Christina’s defense? She was just a caregiver, wasn’t she? Someone hired to work for the Scott family. Why did Dn go this far for someone like that?


    “What if he is?” Elliott chimed in coolly, his expression equally frosty. “I wouldn’t mind spreading the word myself, Mr. Dawson.”


    “You—” Brendon’s face turned stark white, utterly stunned. What was going on? Why was Elliott standing up for her as well? Their ties to Christina weren’t as innocent as they seemed.


    “I never thought I’d encounter such a shameless person in Dorfield,” Robin added with a faint, amused smile, raising his chin slightly as he stared down at Brendon with a glint of disdain. “Looks like I’ll need to speak with my grandfather once I’m back in Kitaso, and have a word with some of the key yers in our business circle.”


    Brendon’splexion turned ashen. Even Robin—who lived far away in Kitaso—was threatening him, and all because of Christina. He was being boxed in from every direction.
