Brandon clung to Brianna as if she were a lifeline, his voice cracking. "Brianna, we grew up together... We have such a deep bond. Please, talk to Mr. Blackwood for me, talk to Miss Lancaster..."
As he spoke, he tried to grab Brianna's hand. "Didn't I... didn't I say before that on your coming-of-age day, I would grant your greatest wish? Well... I'll grant it now! I was planning for us to officially get together on your birthday... but we can do it now! Let's be official right now!"
"Brianna, you don't like me with Lauren, I swear... from now on, I'll cut off all ties with her. I'll only be good to you, and I'll never see Lauren again!"
Brandon's voice was trembling uncontrollably.
"Brandon?!" Lauren couldn't believe how cowardly and selfish he was being. He was throwing her under the bus to save himself?
He was going to cut ties with her and never see her again?
She had worked so hard to escape her backwater town.
She had finally started living a life of luxury.
Without Brandon, how could she maintain her current lifestyle?
She refused to go back to that place!
Lauren was frantic, tears welling up instantly. "Brianna, you saved my life. My life is yours! We're the best of friends, best sisters. P-please help me... I can't go out on that track and kneel with them. I'm innocent..."
Brianna found herself caught between these two scumbags.
Looking at the two pathetic clowns putting on this ugly show, she found it utterly ridiculous and laughable.
It made her feel like she had been an absolute fool before, to have been so thoroughly deceived by such pathetic people.
Her face turned cold, and she glared at them, swatting away their outstretched hands.
