Chapter 288
"Brynn, you can leave now. Sorry for taking up your time."
After confirming Brynn's innocence, the police began to politely see her off.
However, Clara, due to the unresolved case, didn't rush to let her go.
Brynn gave Clara a disdainful look and was about to leave when Clara called out to her.
"Desmond likes me! So what if you're engaged to him? He doesn't love you at all!"
Brynn's face darkened upon hearing this.
Recalling that Desmond had indeed been in contact with Clara recently, she walked back to Clara in her high heels.
"I forgot to tell you, not only are we getting engaged, but we're also having the wedding soon!"
Seeing the shock and panic in Clara's eyes, Brynn continued, "As for your nonsense just now, I don't believe a word of it!"
Clara bit her lip hard. Seeing that her harsh words had no effect, she began to cry and plead softly:
"Please, just let me have Desmond... We love each other. If you love Desmond, you wouldn't want to see him unhappy, right?"
Brynn scoffed,
"Don't act like this in front of me, I hate it."
She hadn't interacted with Clara much, but she had seen Clara's pretentious behavior enough times. From initial indifference to extreme disgust now, she didn't want to say much more.
If Clara hadn't been pestering Desmond, she wouldn't have wasted her time talking to Clara here.
Seeing Clara still wanting to say something, Brynn was annoyed.
She turned to the police and said,
"I almost forgot, I want to press charges for her defamation. She should be detained for at least three days!"
Seeing the police look at her, she held her head as if in pain and 'continued,
"I'm feeling dizzy now. Her defamation has caused me significant mental distress."
Clara's face changed upon hearing Brynn's words, and she was stunned.
Seeing the police about to speak, Clara panicked and quickly grabbed Brynn, pleading, "Brynn, please don't blame me, I was wrong..."
"Really? You know you were wrong?"
Clara nodded repeatedly. She couldn't afford to be detained, even for three days. If she were detained and then released, her reputation would be even worse.
"Then promise not to pester Desmond anymore."
Brynn was fed up with Clara, and what annoyed her more was that Desmond hadn't completely cut ties with Clara.
But to solve this issue at its root, Clara had to be dealt with!
"I-I promise," Clara said, crying.
Although she promised verbally, Clara was thinking that she would still complain to Desmond when she had the chance, telling him how Brynn bullied her.
After all, Desmond was her most reliable support now.
But the more she thought about it, the more obvious her emotions became on her face. She didn't realize her thoughts were exposed.
Brynn wasn't a fool and immediately saw through Clara.

She extended her hand and said, "Give me your phone."
Clara asked in confusion, "Why do you want my phone?"
"To block Desmond for you. You don't seem capable of not contacting him. I don't trust your promise."
"You-"
Hearing her blunt words, Clara's face changed again.
"Will you give it or not?" Brynn didn't negotiate, but her words were full of danger, "If
you don't, I'll continue to press charges for defamation. That way, you'll be detained for three days and won't be able to pester him."
"I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you."
Clara gritted her teeth in anger and helplessness. Seeing Brynn really about to block Desmond's number, she couldn't help but feel frustrated,
"If you block Desmond, I won't be able to receive his calls."
Brynn looked at her like she was an idiot, "Yeah, do you not know what blocking means?"
"Of course I know what blocking means!" Clara felt insulted and couldn't help but mock Brynn,
"So, you're worried Desmond will contact me? You know deep down that Desmond likes me, not you!"
The more she spoke, the more she felt she had seen the truth.
Brynn, however, wasn't angered by her words. Instead, she seemed to think of something and handed the phone back to Clara, "You block him yourself!" "What do you mean? Afraid Desmond will blame you?" Clara felt triumphant.

Brynn laughed coldly, looking down at Clara's smug face, and calmly said,
"You're right, but also wrong."
Clara didn't expect Brynn to agree with her and was momentarily stunned. She quickly continued, "If Desmond finds out I didn't block him willingly, he'll blame you too!"
In the end, Clara didn't want to be detained or block Desmond.
Brynn ignored her provocation and continued, "So, to make you block Desmond willingly and to make you give up, I've decided to change the rules."
"What rules?" Clara didn't understand what Brynn meant.
If it wasn't reasonable, she wouldn't agree!
"I'll give you a chance to see that you're just a joke," Brynn explained, "You can contact him, but I trust my fiancé's loyalty. He promised me he wouldn't answer your calls."
Brynn spoke confidently, as if she didn't take Clara seriously at all.
Hearing Brynn's words, Clara thought for a moment and said, "You said it. I'll block Desmond, but I can still contact him!"
Brynn smiled, "Yes."
Clara blocked Desmond herself. After Brynn checked her phone, she said, "Don't let me
find out Desmond called you. Otherwise... I'll hold you responsible for the severe
mental distress caused by your defamation."
Hearing her warning, Clara shivered and finally nodded.
"I won't take Desmond off the blacklist."
Although she wouldn't take him off the blacklist, she was sure Desmond would contact
her!
She believed Desmond wouldn't ignore her calls.
After all, even last night, while singing karaoke with Brynn, her Desmond still answered
her call. Her Desmond loved her!noveldrama
