Chapter 904
Spectators gathered on the sidewalk, their murmurs floating in the air like a
dubious chorus, none showing a real intent to step in.
Brittany pulled over and got out to assess the situation.
A bystander warned her, “Don’t get involved. It’s none of your business.”
Brittany ignored the advice.
Dialing 911, she then patiently waited for the ambulance to arrive. Following it to
the hospital, she watched as the elderly lady was rushed into the emergency
room. Not knowing her identity, Brittany fronted some cash for the stranger's
treatment and then left the medical center.
Back at Bay Community, Isaac had just wrapped up a meeting.
He was prepping dinner when she walked in. “Why are you so late?”
“Just got held up on the road.”
Brittany recounted her
to Isaac. It wasn't a hero complex; she simply couldn't
bear to see a life slip away so needlessly. Every time she saw an old person in
trouble, she thought of her grandmother. If only someone had been there to lend
a hand, her grandma might still be around.
Isaac, well aware of the kindness in Brittany's bones, encouraged her, “You did
good.”
At the Lynette residence, Holden returned home to find Saskia waiting for him.
“Holden, you're back.”
“I heard the Joyners have agreed to call off the engagement?”
“Yes, Ophelia demanded a hefty sum,” Saskia frowned. “I didn’t expect her to be
so mercenary. Vincent made a small mistake, why is she being so heartless?”
Vincent's future marriage prospects now seemed grim.
At Saskia’s words, Holden's brow furrowed involuntarily. “Saskia, being unfaithful
isn't a small mistake.”
Setting aside Ophelia’s pride and unwillingness to settle for less, Vincent's
behavior was unacceptable regardless.
“But Vincent has been with her for so long.”
“Which is all the more reason he should not marry Ophelia.”

Entering the kitchen and returning with a cup of coffee, Holden added, “Saskia, I
know that you and Vincent are close, but he’s got Lynette blood, unlike us.”
Even if Vincent committed the gravest of sins, he had the Lynette family to fall
back on. They were different; they didn’t have the luxury of making mistakes.
Saskia bit her tongue. “I understand.”
“And stay out of Vincent's business.”
She nodded obediently. “Mom mentioned Dad is arranging blind dates for you.
Are you...”
“It doesn’t matter to me.”
Holden was indifferent to marriage. Power and wealth were his true pursuits, not
finding a life partner.
To Saskia, it seemed her brother only had eyes for money and power, a
perception she found distasteful. But they were all each other had, so she held
her tongue.
The phone rang in Holden's room-it was from the hospital.
“Mr. Lynette, your grandmother has been admitted. Can you come over?”
Without hesitation, Holden rushed there as fast as he could.
Abigail, the elderly lady who had raised him and Saskia as her own, smiled
weakly upon seeing him.
“Holden, I'm sorry for the trouble.”
“How did you end up here?”

As his career soared post-graduation and Abigail's only son passed away,
leaving her alone, Holden moved her into his house and hired a caregiver for her.
He hadn't expected her to venture out alone and nearly come to harm.
Abigail held Holden’s hand and said, “Holden, I'm sorry, I didn’t want to trouble
you.”
“Abigail, just focus on recovering. I'll handle the rest.”
