Love Command: Darling, Do You Yield?-Chapter 99 - 100: Iris Harris... Could she really die?

"She’s not here?" Lady Hyde widened her eyes in astonishment. "Where’s Iris? Didn’t she come with you? Where did she go?"

"..."

Brandan Hyde didn’t know how to explain the situation to Lady Hyde for a moment.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally recounted what happened in the woods to Lady Hyde.

"...I had no other choice." Brandan said in a low voice, "I can’t let Viola just wait to die."

"......"

Lady Hyde seemed to be frightened. She looked at Brandan in confusion, her voice trembling, "Brandan, what are you saying?"

"Mom..."

"You’re lying to me, right?" Lady Hyde grabbed Brandan’s arm. "Trade Iris for Viola? That’s impossible, you wouldn’t do such a thing..."

"Mom, in that situation..."

"Shut up!!!"

Lady Hyde suddenly shouted, cutting him off. Her eyes were wide with disbelief as she looked at Brandan, breathing heavily, as if her emotions had reached their peak.

Brandan was startled by Lady Hyde’s reaction. He tried to support her but was pushed away by her.

"Mom..."

Brandan, rejected by Lady Hyde, was at a loss for a moment.

He wanted to say that in that situation, it was the best option.

Viola was in great danger, and if they brought the money on time the next day to pay the ransom, Iris would be fine.

He had always judged matters purely rationally, but now, being looked at by Lady Hyde, he felt he had done something wrong.

But what did he do wrong?

Clearly, at that time, it was the best choice...

Brandan was bewildered and at a loss.

Large teardrops fell from Lady Hyde’s eyes.

"Iris..."

Lady Hyde covered her face, "Auntie is sorry, Iris... Auntie is sorry..."

She shouldn’t have let her go; she shouldn’t have. She could hardly imagine how Iris felt at the time!

Brandan was right there beside her, but he didn’t go to save her. How did Iris feel?

Just thinking about it made Lady Hyde’s heart feel like it was breaking! Let alone Iris, the one directly involved!

"Mom..." Looking at his crying mother, Brandan said helplessly, "It will be fine..." He didn’t know how to comfort her.

"What if something happens?" Lady Hyde looked at him with red eyes. "Brandan Hyde, what if Iris dies there? How can you be sure they won’t kill her? Do you know who those people are at all?! ...You don’t know anything... and yet you agreed to let Iris be exchanged! She’s a life too! Even if you hate her, you shouldn’t harm her!"

"Mom, I don’t hate her..."

Brandan felt a bit confused in his heart.

Did he hate Iris Harris that much, to the point of wanting her dead?

No...

It’s not like that...

He was very worried too, that’s why a four-hour journey only took him three hours...

He called the bank, asked them to prepare the ten billion funds immediately.

He had made all the necessary preparations to rescue her the next day.

"She won’t die."

Brandan said, slightly clenching his fingers, "They only want money."

He didn’t know if these words were meant for Lady Hyde to hear, or for himself.

In his heart, following Lady Hyde’s words, an unreasonable panic emerged.

Had he really made a mistake?

Could Iris Harris really die?

No, impossible...

He told himself, how could that be? Viola wasn’t dead, they had no reason to kill Iris Harris.

His heart had always been rational and calm, but now, for some reason, as time passed, an inexplicable fear suddenly surged up, making his fingertips go cold for no reason.

He suddenly began to feel afraid.
