Chapter 1321: Chapter 1321: You Were the One Who Saved Her When She Needed It Most

Lennox Quinn looked at Mason Nightshade, then at Adrian Cooper, the cold air between them was about to freeze the room.

He tried to minimize his presence to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

Fortunately, his foolish brother Grayson Quinn wasn’t here, otherwise, given his temperament, he would have clashed with Mason Nightshade in this situation.

"Clearly understand? Understand what?" Adrian Cooper asked, "Didn’t she sign the papers? Did I force her? Yes, I forced her and told her that if she didn’t leave you, she’d spend her life in prison. Between freedom and you, she chose to abandon you."

Mason Nightshade’s fingers tightened, crumpling the paper in his hand into a ball.

He tossed it into the trash can, his expression cold and terrifying, "I will find the evidence!"

Upon reaching the door, Mason Nightshade stopped and glanced sideways at Adrian Cooper.

"Let me meet her."

"She’s currently a murder suspect, visits are temporarily off-limits."

Adrian Cooper’s tone was indifferent.

Mason Nightshade left without delay.

"Sigh." Lennox Quinn sighed, "Is it worth sacrificing yourself like this? Mason Nightshade may be rational, but even the most rational person can lose clarity in love. Aren’t you afraid he’ll truly hate you?"

"I’m doing it for his own good." Adrian looked in the direction Mason Nightshade had gone.

It was precisely because he knew Mason Nightshade’s feelings for Aurelia Shaw were too deep that he couldn’t let him give up on himself and fall into the abyss.

He already bore too many burdens, now with the external rumors, doubts, and disappointments from his subordinates, he had too much to handle.

How far could one love carry him?

He merely didn’t want a former good brother to watch him destroy himself.

...

In a certain villa, Alaric Wood sat lazily on the sofa, supporting his head with one hand, his gaze languid, while his other hand rested on the sofa.

In front of him, sat a row of people facing computers.

"The news on the internet has all been released, with the hired influencers stirring public opinion, everyone is condemning Aurelia Shaw. According to your instructions, Mason Nightshade has also been roped in." At this moment, someone reported.

Alaric Wood half-closed his eyes and said nothing; he had no choice but to use this method. Although it pained him the most, as long as it could make her leave Mason Nightshade and come back to him.

Then everything he did now was worth it.

Seeing Alaric Wood press his temples, Vaila Mook approached nervously, "Is your head aching again? Your soul hasn’t been in sync with this body for long. You’re overworking yourself too much, which isn’t harmless to your body. You came here to find her, but if you collapse before that, even if she returns, what’s the use?"

"Do you think I’m back to find her? Without me, she was happy with him. Is my appearance causing her harm?" Alaric Wood suddenly said, dazed.

Vaila Mook glanced at Alaric Wood, pressing her lips tightly, "No! It was you who saved her when she needed it most, who accompanied her through that darkest period.

Even without your appearance, this matter would’ve been exposed, Aurelia Shaw would still face what she has to face. Ultimately, it was Mason Nightshade who failed to protect her.

It was you who stood by her in the past, and now it’s you who should be by her side, not him."

Vaila Mook had watched Alaric Wood make sacrifices for her too many, whatever he did was never wrong.

"Will she hate me if she finds out?"

Alaric Wood finished speaking and laughed slightly.

"Let her hate then."

As long as she can return to his side.

"I want to see her."

Alaric Wood stood up, his head suddenly spinning, his body swayed sharply, about to fall.
