No Trespassing! My Aloof Brother-Chapter 526 - 524: By Your Side [Update 1]

Although Liam Spencer never mentioned Nolan Woods and Jane Spencer’s relationship to her, this man could rush to Jane Spencer’s aid without hesitation, and Maya Spencer had never seen him in the social circles.

Therefore, she judged that Nolan Woods’ background wasn’t great, and his relationship with her elder sister had been quite long.

If her elder sister would be with a penniless Nolan Woods, naturally there’s true affection involved. If she knew Nolan Woods was gone overnight, what would she do? Maya Spencer couldn’t guess; someone as selfish and self-righteous as Jane Spencer, what would she do?

Liam Spencer listened to Maya Spencer’s questioning, took a deep breath, and said nonchalantly, "There’s nothing to explain."

If Nolan Woods hadn’t taken Maya Spencer hostage, he wouldn’t have ended up like this.

Maya Spencer watched Liam Spencer’s calm demeanor and gently held his hand while staring at him without blinking.

"Sorry for frightening you." Liam Spencer held Maya Spencer’s small hand, pressed it to his lips, and kissed it to apologize.

He had promised to protect Maya, yet today she ended up facing such an ordeal, and Liam Spencer felt guilty.

Meanwhile, in Elijah Reed’s car, Ella Turner looked pale, covering her mouth with a wave of nausea. She had glanced at Nolan Woods a few times earlier, and now her entire body felt uncomfortable. The sound of gunfire still echoed in her ears, making her ears buzz for a long time.

Seeing Ella Turner’s unsettled state, Elijah Reed touched her face with concern and asked, "Still haven’t recovered?"

"Yes! My heart feels so panicked." Ella Turner patted her chest. She hadn’t expected that Maya Spencer’s life would be so tumultuous, and she felt worried.

"Ella, don’t worry, this kind of thing won’t happen again. The case will have its second trial the day after tomorrow, and the eldest miss already has no retreat." Elijah Reed’s right hand rested on Ella Turner’s shoulder to comfort her.

"Hmm, hmm!" Ella Turner nodded, thinking that Liam Spencer must be feeling really bad! After all, Jane Spencer is his biological sister.

However, everything was Jane Spencer’s own doing; she couldn’t blame anyone else.

...

On the next morning, when Maya Spencer opened her eyes, Liam Spencer was just about to leave.

He saw Maya suddenly awake, walked leisurely towards the bedside, and his lips curled into a warm smile as he touched the girl’s face and asked, "Why didn’t you sleep a bit longer?"

"Are you going to work?" Maya Spencer clutched Liam Spencer’s large hand tightly, looking at him with a tone as if reluctant to let him go.

Liam Spencer listened to Maya’s question, rubbed her head, and said, "Going to see elder sister first."

Regarding Nolan Woods’ death, Liam Spencer wanted to tell Jane Spencer in person. After all, Nolan Woods was the person she cared about the most. She would rather take on all the guilt herself, just to give him a chance to be spared, so this news had to be delivered to Jane Spencer directly by Liam.

"Let me go with you! I’m afraid elder sister might have an emotional breakdown and harm you." Maya guessed the hatred Jane had towards Liam.

If it wasn’t such deep hatred, how else would she have enticed Ella to seek revenge against Liam? Nolan Woods’ mishap in Liam’s territory would certainly drive Jane Spencer crazy and make her desperate.

Maya knew Jane couldn’t physically harm Liam, but whatever Jane said or did would cause him emotional harm. She wanted to be by his side, staying with him when he’s feeling low and helpless.

Liam watched the girl’s initiative with a gratifying smile, pinched her little face and said, "It’s okay, I won’t be affected by elder sister."

Although Liam Spencer said it just like that, he was already affected by Jane Spencer. Just thinking of Jane Spencer’s face would dampen his mood.

After all, he grew up with Jane Spencer; he didn’t hold as much resentment, so this inner anguish was quite intense.

Liam Spencer seemed very aloof on the surface but was actually deeply emotional. So when Grandpa handed Spencer Clan Group to him, he didn’t accept it; he didn’t desire the rivalry between Jane Spencer and Kinsley Spencer, only to find that things still ended up this way.

If he had known earlier that elder sister would be so crazed, he would have agreed the first time Grandpa brought this up. At least it wouldn’t have let Jane hold such hopes, and she might not have ended up this way today.

"Brother Liam, I’ll always be by your side." Maya saw the hint of bravado in Liam’s eyes and promised him again. She hoped she could be his support, making him feel less alone.

"Thank you, Maya." Liam lightly hugged Maya, kissed her on the cheek, then got up to leave the bedroom and drove off towards the Police Headquarters.

Forty minutes later, Liam’s car stopped in the open parking lot of the Police Headquarters.

Inside the car, he took a deep breath, pushed the door open, got out unhurriedly, and headed towards the headquarters.

In the meeting room, he clasped his hands gently in front of the table, waiting for Jane Spencer’s arrival.

A moment later, the police brought Jane Spencer in.

When Jane saw Liam, she sneered, sarcastically saying, "Master Liam, you’re really free, visiting me every other day. Don’t tell me you’re here to rekindle past affections."

As Liam listened to Jane’s sarcasm, he cast her a cold glance and didn’t respond.

When Jane sat across from him, he stared at her directly.

He could tell that in recent days Jane hadn’t had a good time inside; her face looked weary, crow’s feet were apparent at her eyes, and dark circles were severe, suggesting sleepless nights.

"Brother, I’ve told you everything you wanted to know. What more do you want?" Jane was frustrated seeing Liam silent.

At this moment, she wished Liam would get angry; only then would she feel balanced in her heart.

Seeing Jane impatient, Liam spoke coolly, "Why get worked up so soon? I haven’t told you the main thing yet."

"Liam Spencer, what do you mean?" Jane half-squinted her eyes, furrowing her brows as she stared into Liam’s eyes, seemingly anxious to find out what he meant.

Jane could tell from Liam’s tone and inflection that he did have something important to tell her that could spare time from his busy schedule to see her, suggesting the matter must be significant and related to her.

Currently, matters of significance and related to her, besides Nolan Woods, were none other than him.

Jane thought, could it be possible that Nolan Woods used Arthur River’s trick to kidnap Maya Spencer to make Liam let her go?

Thinking of this, Jane took a deep breath and swallowed a gulp, her eyes abruptly widening as she focused on Liam.

In Liam’s forlorn gaze, she seemed to see a glimmer of hope, a hope for freedom. Maybe she so desperately wished to be free from imprisonment that she perceived a glimmer of hope from Liam’s eyes.

Liam noticed her tense demeanor, casually glanced at her and pushed his chair back slightly, saying coldly, "No need to look at me with such hope, what I bring isn’t good news."
