Chapter 251: Despite this, a part of Bria felt not reconciled and regretted acceding to Kallie's earlier request. “I demand an explanation!" Bria's response was swift and controlling as she tightened her grip on Kallie. "You're not going anywhere until we clear this up." Linsey, having regained her composure, fixed Bria with a steely gaze. "Miss Nixon, while the full truth may be murky, it's clear Kallie has been locked up against her will. You claim to pity her, yet everyone in Burmoos knows she's Jake's wife and a friend of my family. Mr. JerHayes has even publicly vowed to protect her. Given her connections, how can you consider her pitiful? If she is, what does that make ordinary people?" Kallie was kidnapped by criminals on her way to pay respects at Mr. Roderick Reeves's grave. While I don't suspect the Nixon family's involvement, if you truly rescued her, why wasn't she taken to the police or a hospital? Why label her a vagrant instead?" Linsey's voice sharpened with accusation. “Do you have ulterior motives? Do you think because Kallie can't speak for herself, you can do whatever you wish?" Stunned into silence, Bria found herself at a loss for words, reeling from the directness of Linsey's interrogation. The irony of the situation twisted a knot in Bria's stomach. Kallie, seemingly meek and having been bullied by Sarah, was in fact Jake's wife.

Bria couldn't help but feel a sting of jealousy. Sarah had tried so hard and failed to marry Jake, yet Kallie, whom she deemed pitiful, had succeeded. Despite the harsh look Bria gave Kallie, Bria eventually let Kallie go, her mind racing with thoughts of future retribution after bidding the right moment.

Kallie, sensing a fleeting yet unmistakable murderous intent in Bria's eyes, felt a surge of worry. Would her departure with Linsey implicate and bring trouble to the Brooks family? It was at this critical juncture that Ewing chose to step in. He offered Kallie a sympathetic smile and spoke soothingly.

"I'm really sorry. My cousin can be thoughtless and impulsive. Don't worry. I'll make sure she learns from this. You have heard my grandfather say that you are his granddaughter, which I find quite plausible.

He's too old for any shocks now. I hope you can stay a bit longer for his health. I assure you, once he's more stable, we can have a proper discussion." Ewing continued reassuringly, "Your safety here is my priority. Everyone present is a witness. If anything happens to you, I take full responsibility." Linsey, still visibly upset, was quick to counter. “Promises mean nothing without action." Ewing didn't hesitate. He immediately called for a lawyer to draft a legal agreement and suggested that Jake, as Kallie's husband, should co-sign it to formalize the responsibilities.

"This agreement will ensure Kallie's safety," Ewing explained as he orchestrated the documentation.

When Jake reviewed the agreement, he was taken aback by one particular clause. “She has to report to you whoever she meets during her stay? Doesn't she even have the freedom to see others?"

Ewing, adjusting his glasses, replied with a sharp smile, "Mr. Reeves, please understand this is for your wife's safety. Our family takes the security of its members seriously, unlike others. If more care had been taken, she wouldn't have been abducted."
