Chapter 510
“Sent to the old lady.”
“Alright.”
Seeing the red veins in Maxim’s eyes, Rayan hurriedly said, “Mr. Yoder, you should go back and rest now, it’s
already past
midnight.”
Maxim nodded, “Hmm, feel free to call me anytime if you need anything.”
Returning to Elm Bay, it was already past one in the morning.
The lights in the villa were still on. Maxim opened the door and went in, only to find Briana asleep on the couch.
Unconsciously, he lightened his steps.
Walking over to Briana, just as I was about to carry her back to the bedroom, Briana woke up.
Upon seeing Maxim, her gaze shifted from dazed to clear, and she slowly sat up.
“What time was it?”

“No need.”
Briana looked up at him, her expression calm as she spoke,

“Coming back this late, don’t you think you owe an explanation?”
Maxim sat down beside her, recounting the events of the day, but deliberately omitted the part about
accompanying Kiley to the hospital for an abortion.
After listening, Briana lowered her gaze, her hands resting on her legs unconsciously tightening slowly.
“Is that all? You have nothing else to tell me?”
Maxim frowned in thought for a moment, then said with a smile, “That’s all, isn’t this day thrilling enough?”
Briana pursed her lips, didn’t ask any further, but stood up and said, “You’ve been busy all day and must be tired,
go rest.”
After speaking, she immediately turned around and went upstairs.
Watching her retreating figure, Maxim always felt that her reactions and attitude were somewhat cold, and he
couldn’t help but frown.
Did she already know that I accompanied Kiley to get an abortion?
Thinking of this possibility, a touch of panic suddenly rose in his heart, Maxim immediately called Rayan.
“Did the news about me accompanying Kiley to the hospital -today get blocked?!”
After several seconds, Rayan’s cautious voice finally came through, “Mr. Yoder, I meant to tell you about this, but I
got so caught up with other things that I forgot… You and Kiley were

spotted together at the obstetrics and gynecology department by the paparazzi, and the news has spread all over
Bridenville…”
Maxim’s face instantly turned extremely cold, “Understood.”
After hanging up the phone, Maxim couldn’t help but feel regret and annoyance for his previous self-conceived
cleverness.
Briana already knew everything. Her final question was merely giving him a chance to confess, yet he foolishly
thought he had managed to keep it a secret.

Gathering courage at the door of Briana’s bedroom, I knocked and whispered, “Briana, I have something to tell you,
could you please open the door?”
Briana’s voice came quickly from inside the door, “It’s too late today, let’s talk about it tomorrow.”
Hearing the indifference in her tone, a flash of panic suddenly crossed Maxim’s mind.
“No, this matter is very important, it must be discussed right now.”
After a while, Briana finally opened the door, “What is it?”
It was today that I accompanied Kiley to the hospital.
No sooner had he finished speaking than he saw Briana looking at him with a smirk, “How come I didn’t know you
were so enthusiastic? If I didn’t know better, I’d think Kiley was carrying your child.”
“Briana, listen to me, you know about the incident where grandma and my mom were taken by Isaac. During the
days. they were locked in the basement, it was Kiley who secretly brought them food, which is how they managed
to survive. The reason we were able to rescue them this time was because Kiley tipped us off. So, I owe her a
favor!”
