Chapter 1897
Brodie remained composed.
“You don’t want to marry into the Mitchell family? Really? Are you sure about that?”
Melina stared at him.
“What are you getting at?”
Brodie took a slow sip of his coffee before speaking.
“I know you still have feelings for Bryson.
”
“That’s nonsense!” Melina frowned.
“Is it?” Brodie replied, a hint of amusement in his tone.
“Let me guess what you’re thinking.
Franco Mitchell’s fate is still up in the air.
If Tyshawn succeeds, you’ll have proof of his crime.
If he fails, he might end up in prison for life.
Either way, he won’t bother you anymore, and you’ll be free to do whatever you want.
”
Melina paused, setting down her cup.
“What do you want from me?”
“I want to work with you,” Brodie said simply.
Melina laughed dryly.
“Our family might not be as powerful as the Mitchells, but we’re not fools, Mr.
Moreno.
Just a couple of days ago, Ryleigh was your partner.
Now you’re here with me? You must have tried to team up with Tyshawn before coming to me, right? You’re casting a wide net, seeing who you can use.
”
Brodie nodded, not missing a beat.
“Why not choose to work with me, Miss Glyn? We both know what we want.
Isn’t it better to use each other? I used them because they were just tools.
You and I, we’re real partners.
”
Melina narrowed her eyes, considering his words.
After a moment, she nodded.
“Alright, I agree.
”
Brodie finally smiled.
“Excellent.
We’re partners now.
”
After a moment, Melina asked, “What do you plan to do with them? The Mitchell family’s economy has been declining for years.
Their stock price has plummeted, and they have capital chain issues.
Even though Bryson has helped them recover a few times, it won’t take much to push the Mitchell Group into bankruptcy.
”
She glanced at Brodie as if he were naive.
“With Bryson around, taking down the Mitchell family won’t be as easy as you think.
”

Brodie shrugged.
“True, but when the shepherds quarrel, the wolf has a winning game.
I just need to stir things up.
The result is all that matters to me.
Everyone Loves to kick someone when they’re down.
I’m not the only one looking to exploit the Mitchell family’s troubles.
As long as they fall, I win.
”
Melina felt a chill at his confidence.
He wasn’t just playing games.
But thinking of Bryson, her resolve hardened.
“Alright, I’ll cooperate.
You can count on me.
”
That evening, Bryson and Hannah stayed at a cafe near the hospital instead of going back.
Dotson called Hannah.
“Boss, I saw Tyshawn change clothes and sneak into the hospital.
Should we act now?”
“No, let him be,” Hannah replied calmly.
“He’ll head to the ward soon.
Tell our men to hold back.
We’ll be there shortly.
”
“Got it, boss.
Don’t worry.
He won’t be able to harm Mr.
Franco Mitchell!”
After hanging up, Hannah turned to Bryson.
“Looks like Tyshawn is making his move tonight.
”
Bryson’s eyes darkened.
“Let’s head back.

“Don’t worry.
Dotson will handle him.
”
They paid the bill, left the cafe, and walked to the hospital.
