Chapter 190
Keith’s expression was ice–cold. When Tara saw him, a flash of guilt crossed her eyes, but it happened so fast that no one else caught it
“Leave Brannon Creative Group now, Tara. I don’t want to make this ugly, but only because of Alyssa,” Keith said as he walked over to serena and pulle Tara up from the floor.
Tara stumbled and looked at Keith with pitiful eyes. “I just wanted to see the child. I wasn’t trying to disrupt your life, Keith. Don’t be so cold to me, okay?”
Keith wasn’t moved at all. He just turned to look at Serena. “Are you okay?”
Serena shook her head hesitantly. She was more confused than anything else. She’d never even met this Tara woman before, and now this whole scene had happened out of nowhere. It was honestly annoying.
“Ms. Corwin, if you don’t leave right now, I’m calling security,” Keith said with a warning edge in his voice.
Tara’s heart jumped when she heard him say that. Seeing how he was protecting Serena, she finally took a deep breath. “Fine, I’m sorry. It’s my fault She wiped away her tears and left. The office immediately fell silent.

Keith’s eyes swept over everyone before landing on Nicole, his brows furrowed in anger. “You brought an outsider into the company without approval? Do you think Brannon Creative Group is your personal playground?”
Nicole had been so focused on destroying Serena that she hadn’t thought about anything else. She immediately lowered her head when she heard his words. “I’m sorry, Mr. Brannon.”
“Go to HR later and get your punishment. We’ll handle this according to company policy,” Keith said coldly. He was genuinely pissed off this time.
“Serena and I don’t have any inappropriate relationship, and that woman wasn’t my wife,” Keith continued. “If I hear any more rumors about this, you can find somewhere else to work.”
Nicole quickly bowed her head, but her eyes were full of jealousy. ‘Why does Keith still protect Serena even after all this?‘ she thought.
The drama ended pretty quickly, but Serena could tell that plenty of people around them had believed Tara’s story. She wasn’t going to put up with being wrongly accused like this, and she still had no idea what was really going on.
So when Keith turned to leave, Serena followed him directly.
She walked into his office behind him. Keith could see that Serena’s whole face was tense, and he knew she wanted to ask him about something, so he spoke up, “You want to know about Tara?”
“Yes.” Serena knew Keith had helped her a lot, but she also had the right to know the truth.
“I’m sorry I never brought this up before. I was worried it would upset Alyssa, but the truth isn’t what Tara claims. We were never together,” Keith said.
Serena went quiet as soon as he started talking. ‘If they were never together, then where did Alyssa come from?‘ she thought.
“Alyssa isn’t my biologicat daughter. She’s Tara’s biological daughter,” Keith continued.
