No Trespassing! My Aloof Brother-Chapter 413 - 411 Who Gave You the Permission [1 More]

Over the phone, Maya Spencer listened to Ella Turner’s muffled, anxious voice and immediately said, "Ella, I’m coming over to be with you now."

"I’m fine, see you tomorrow at 9 AM." Ella didn’t meet with Maya immediately because she needed to arrange some things to ensure Maya could leave Liam Spencer smoothly.

The person capable of planning her brother’s murder might decide to harm Maya if they ever displeased him.

To both her and Maya, Liam Spencer was a ticking time bomb, ready to hurt them at any moment.

So she had to ensure Maya’s departure; she had already lost her brother and couldn’t lose Maya too.

At 9 AM the next day, Maya Spencer arrived promptly at the café where Ella had arranged to meet.

Maya looked at Ella, who seemed extremely nervous, thinking she was still upset about losing Ethan Turner, and took a deep breath before smiling, "Ella, don’t be so tense, have you had breakfast yet?"

"I did." Ella focused her gaze on Maya as she replied.

Then she handed the folder she was holding to Maya and said, "Maya, my brother’s car accident wasn’t an accident; it was deliberate. The ventilation system of his car had been sprayed with a large amount of chemicals, and those two truck drivers were hired by the killer."

"Did Elijah Reed tell you that?" Maya frowned deeply, staring at Ella unwaveringly, feeling something was unusual in her expression that was hard to fathom.

"Look at it first." Ella said.

Hearing her, Maya opened the folder and began to sift through the evidence inside.

As she examined the evidence, her expression became grim.

After a moment, she threw the evidence on the table with a "slam" and said confidently, "Ella, there’s no way the killer is Liam Spencer; there’s definitely something wrong with this evidence."

"Maya, don’t be deceived by that man. Elijah Reed consulted Kay Carter about the chemicals, but he kept it from us and never told us. Yesterday, when I asked Elijah if there were any new leads, he avoided my gaze and lied about having no new progress. If Liam wasn’t the killer, why wouldn’t he tell me?" Ella grew worried as Maya became anxious, fearing that Maya might continue to trust Liam and stay by his side where danger lurked.

So she added, "Liam is afraid you’ll fall for my brother and leave him, so he went to the extreme of killing my brother. If he could drive away Lillian Morris, what’s so strange about him killing my brother?"

"Ella, this can’t possibly be done by Liam; he wouldn’t kill anyone. Who gave you these pieces of evidence? I think someone is trying to frame Liam. You should give this evidence to the police and let them investigate." Maya’s stance was identical to Ella’s from yesterday; she didn’t believe Liam could do such a thing.

Seeing Maya’s disbelief, Ella hurriedly grabbed her hand and said, "Liam is powerful in S City, giving the evidence to the police is useless; they have these pieces of evidence too and have done nothing. Maya, trust me, would I harm you?"

"For your safety, you should leave Liam. I’ve already booked your flight, go to my hometown and hide with my parents for a while. Once I resolve this, I’ll come find you." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Looking at the near-hysterical Ella, Maya was momentarily at a loss for words, unsure how to comfort her. She knew no matter what she said, Ella wouldn’t believe her as she had preconceived that the evidence was genuine.

After a moment, she held Ella’s small hand in hers earnestly and said, "Ella, I believe you; of course, I believe you’re worried about my safety, and I know you mean well. But I don’t trust the person who gave you this evidence. Please, trust me—Liam cannot be the murderer; he didn’t kill Ethan, trust me, please?"

Seeing that Maya was persuading her, Ella felt deeply hurt, quickly pushed away Maya’s hand, shook her head, and said, "Maya, you’d rather trust him than believe me? Remember, he forced you to attempt suicide, and drove Brother Morris away. Why put your trust in such a villain?"

As she spoke, she became emotional again, clutching both of Maya’s hands, pleading, "Maya, how can you not trust me? Please, trust me, okay? I’ve already lost my brother; I don’t want to lose you too."

"I believe, I believe! So tell me, who gave you this evidence?" Maya was eager to know who had given Ella the evidence and framed Liam.

Although Ella’s analysis seemed logical, suggesting Liam killed Ethan to prevent Maya from growing fond of him, and that the police covered it up, the reasons sounded plausible, and Liam indeed had such capabilities.

But Maya just couldn’t believe it; she didn’t believe Liam capable of such monstrous acts. He would never harm Ethan.

She wanted to find out who was framing Liam, so she had to pretend to believe Ella and coax her into revealing the supplier of the evidence.

However, Ella shook her head, saying, "Maya, don’t ask too many questions. Just believe me, the person who gave me this evidence can’t harm Liam."

Ella had promised that person not to reveal their identity no matter who inquired about the evidence; otherwise, the ones wanted silenced by Liam would not only include her but also those who wanted justice for her brother would be doomed.

Ella was completely indoctrinated by that person, believing that betraying them would result in the death of many people fighting for justice.

"Ella, how about this—you take me to meet them. There are some doubts I want to clear up. If I am convinced the evidence is real, I will leave Liam. How about that?" Maya endeavored to lure Ella into taking her to meet the person.

"No, Maya, don’t push me. I won’t bring about the deaths of those who want to help my brother. Unless you agree to listen to me and leave Liam immediately, I’ll tell you everything once I find you." Ella started to set conditions for Maya, trying to have her follow through.

She was truly anxious—anxious that Maya wouldn’t heed her advice and anxious that she was blinded by Liam.

"Ella, I’m not forcing you. Why don’t we just hand the evidence over to the police and let them assist with the investigation?"

"Maya, why won’t you believe me? It’s useless to give it to the police; they’re in cahoots with Liam."

"Ella, you’re thinking too badly of Liam. He really isn’t that kind of person. I’ve known him for so long; I can’t be wrong about this." At this moment, Maya was also anxious, feeling that Ella was being excessively stubborn. Why wouldn’t she believe her?

Ella looked at Maya’s emotionally charged demeanor, dumbfounded, observing her for quite some time without regaining her composure.

She hadn’t anticipated Maya turning out like this, trusting that perverted Liam so much. Holding her breath, her mind was a mess, and she overturned her original plan, knowing now it was impossible to persuade Maya anymore.
