She would be willing to lay down her life for him.

"Mr. Knowles, it's my fault for misleading them with the wrong information and causing harm to you and Ms. Benett. I am to blame for staining yours and Ms. Benett's reputation."

Brie's words caught in her throat as she felt a pang of pain thrum in her heart.

She had acted rashly based on her assumptions. Although Mr. North had misunderstood them before, he had never tried to spread false rumors about them.

Mr. North even suspected that Elisa was Winslow's daughter.

But Brie didn't want to go; she was adamant about staying by his side.
