Once they forgive Brady, I can grant their terms.”
“Is that your grand plan, then?”
Hearing the sarcastic tone in Blayze’s voice, Horace was embarrassed.
Adjusting himself, he spoke in a deep voice.
“Isn’t Sabrina your student? If you ask for her forgiveness over Brady, she’ll consider.”
In the photography competition, Sierra had appropriated Sabrina’s work. Resolving that issue wasn’t a
piece of cake. Moreover, the offensive comments Brady made about Sabrina that day, coupled with this
very drug incident, left Blayze hesitant to seek Sabrina’s forgiveness over Brady.
Noticing Blayze’s momentary hesitation, Horace fixed his gaze on Blayze and pressed on, “Is it true
what Brady said? Are you entangled with Sabrina? Would you rather see Brady behind bars than help
Sierra?”
As Blayze prepared to respond, a thought struck him. He lowered his head and sneered, “I do have
feelings for her, but it’s her right whether she forgives Brady or not. Can I force her if she’s not willing?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI’ve caused her enough trouble. I’m in no position to approach her for this.
Plus, do you think the Garrett family hasn’t tried to reach her?

They can’t coerce or entice her into forgiving Brady. How can I make it?
More importantly, it’s Sierra’s and Brady’s fault. You’ve instilled in me the importance of responsibility
since I was a child. It’s only fair they face the consequences, isn’t it?”
“Brady grew up with you. Do you really want to see him in jail?”
“Absolutely not. That’s precisely why I’ve chosen to hand Sierra over to the Garrett family,” declared
Blayze.
Horace was left stunned.
“I figured she’d try to dodge the drama and skip town, so I dispatched someone to tail her the moment I
landed. We might get some news soon,” Blayze added.
“You…” Horace seethed, shooting a glare at Blayze. He begrudgingly softened his tone and asked,
“What are your terms for letting her go?”
At this moment, Horace regretted hastily giving in to Rita’s wishes.
Yet, a promise was a promise, and he couldn’t break it now.
Blayze smiled and said, “Dad, aren’t you the one who said that as long as Brady is in the clear, the
Garrett family won’t hassle Sierra? Well, I can’t sway Sabrina’s decision. If you’re adamant about not
handing over Sierra, you better go there yourself and show some sincerity. Once you get Sabrina’s
forgiveness over Brady, everything should smooth out.”
After a brief hesitation, Horace nodded.
“Fine, I’ll handle it personally.”
“But even if Sabrina agrees to forgive Brady, I won’t let Sierra off the hook. She would only stir up more
trouble here,” Blayze declared.
“What’s your plan, then?”
“After this mess, I’m sending her abroad for studies. She won’t set foot back here without my say-so,”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBlayze asserted sternly.
Horace shared the same strategy, nodding and stating, “Alright, I‘ll inform Rita.”
Once Blayze left, Rita entered the study with a tray in hand.
Placing the tray on the table, she served Horace a bowl of chicken soup and inquired, “What did Blayze
say?”
“I asked Blayze to talk to Sabrina and get her to forgive Brady, but he wasn’t up for it. Claimed he was
too embarrassed to say so. If I want to help Sierra, I have to approach Sabrina and ask for her
forgiveness by myself,” Horace explained.
Rita was taken aback.
“Must you do that?”
Horace clarified, “The Garretts and the Fowlers go way back. The Garrett family just wants to save
Brady. If Brady’s safe, so is Sierra. But sorting Brady’s mess will require some effort. A letter of
understanding from the victims is needed.”
“In that case, I’ll go,” Rita declared.
With a gentle smile, she added, “For Sierra’s sake, I’ll personally go to Mathias, apologize to the
victims, and try to convince them to forgive Brady.”
