Chapter 1301 Spreading
âThe implication is that someone in the house is connected to Preston.
Yesterday's incident was also relayed to Preston by someone in the
house. Otherwise, how would Preston know? The video sent out in the
evening was indeed sent by Preston, and the reason he added the
mosaic was to threaten us, trying to make us comply with his
demands.â
Brody lowered his voice intentionally, speaking softly, afraid that
someone on the other side of the wall might overhear him.
Page was stunned for a moment, and it took her a while to react. Her
face was filled with incredulous shock. She looked up at Brody and
asked, "Someone in the house has been bought by Preston? Whose
fault is this? It was you who brought Preston here in the first place, and
you insisted on cooperating with him despite my objections. So, how is
it now? Did it turn out well for you?"
Page snorted coldly, her eyes filled with cold indifference. She said,
âThe person he is threatening is you, not me. Everything in the video is
your own problem. What does it have to do with me? Why should I
cooperate with you? All these things happened because of you. It's
your fault for what you did outside. It's all your problem, and it has
nothing to do with me."
Page refused to cooperate and was unwilling to help Brody. For her,
seeing Brody being threatened by someone actually made her happy.
After all, everything that came to light was because of his wrongdoing
and the mess caused by the Armstrong family. Just the thought of
compromising with the Armstrong family and not giving birth to a son for
herself made her hatred towards them grow deeper.
Page didn't want to discuss this matter with Brody anymore. She
bypassed him and wanted to leave the bedroom and go downstairs.
She didn't have any reliable relatives on her side, so she couldn't rely
on them to deal with Brody. But that didn't mean she had no solutions
at all. She would do everything possible to find out about the woman
behind Brody and that child.
She wanted to vent her anger. As long as she was unhappy, then no
one should be happy.
Page's indifference made Brody anxious as well. He grabbed Page's
arm and said, "What are you trying to do? I'm not joking with you now,
and I'm not asking for your opinion. I'm telling you what to do. If you can
tolerate someone in this house being connected to Preston, then
whatever happens in the future will reach Preston's ears. Do you want
to give up everything related to Armstrong Corp as well?"
Page was also taken aback. Of course, she didn't want that. She
squinted her eyes and retorted to Brody, "Now you need me? But have
you ever considered my future? You never thought about how I would
be. You only care about that vixen you have outside. If you cared even
a little bit about this family, you wouldn't treat me like this."
Page cried as she questioned him. She was also very helpless about
this matter because she was indeed needed to help now. So, of course,
she didn't want to use this matter to provoke Page.
After careful consideration, Brody simply chose to remain silent.
But his silence was an implicit agreement. Page became even more
uncooperative and even more distant.
Page had an idea. She said to Brody, "If you want me to cooperate, it's
not impossible. Unless you agree to one condition.â
Brody was slightly startled and asked, "What condition?"
âYou have a son with that woman outside, right? We can continue our
marriage and maintain the appearance of a model couple outside, but
the condition is that you bring the child back to be raised under my
name."
Page stared at Brody, making him make a choice.
She wasn't just saying this. She truly meant it.
Although it was humiliating, as long as the child was raised under her
name, the child would be hers, and that despicable woman outside
would never have a chance to see the child.
But Brody fell into silence because this matter was not trivial, and Brody
couldn't simply agree without hesitation.
Page said, "You can consider whether it's appropriate for that child to
be raised outside or brought back openly to the Armstrong family.
Grace is not obedient now, and I am already disappointed. I need to
cultivate a new successor, someone who can inherit everything from
the Armstrong family."
Page had considered divorce, but what good would it do after the
divorce?
Originally, her plan was to have Grace find a high-status husband, then
divorce Brody and naturally take everything from the Armstrong family
during the divorce. She certainly wouldn't leave much for Brody. Even if
they didn't divorce, she had plenty of ways to ensure that Brody would
never be able to bring the other woman and child out.
A lifetime hidden from the light meant complete destruction. That's the
reality in this circle.
Brody probably considered this, so their marital relationship had been
extremely terrible for the past six months.
She didn't regret the current situation. Not taking harsh revenge was
already fair enough.
She broke free from Brody's hand and said, "I'll give you half an hour to
think it over and give me an answer. You can ask for my cooperation
with anything you need."
After saying that, Page walked downstairs without looking back.
In a place out of her sight, a cold hatred glimmered in Brody's eyes, a
hatred that was quite apparent.
Because Brody didn't directly agree to this request, it was naturally
impossible for Page to cooperate. The disunity between the couple
grew stronger.
The online spread of this video grew larger and larger, and everyone
speculated whose family it could be.
Since this video could explode and spread widely, it must be something
related to the elite circles, which made everyone even more curious.
After all, people are always curious about the chaos of private lives,
especially when it involves having a child. It undoubtedly slaps the face
of the legitimate wife!
Netizens speculated and discussed, saying it could be anyone, even
mentioning names like Camille and Ayan, but their faces were blurred,
and the villa's environment wasn't very clear, so there was no way to
determine whose family it was from any source.
Although there were suspicions about Camille and Ayan, as well as the
Ward family and the Simpson family, some quickly replied, "Is a family
like the Simpson family supposed to have such a small villa layout and
decoration? Shouldn't it be a spacious hall? From the video, I think this
living room looks smaller than the top-tier mansionsâ bathrooms. So let
it go; it's probably just some minor wealthy family.â
The term "minor wealthy familyâ refers to those who can't compare to
the top-tier and middle-tier families, at most, they are just richer than
ordinary people.
This response made everyone's curiosity not as intense. However,
when Sienna showed Camille the video for the first time, she
immediately recognized it as the Armstrong family. As for the person
blurred inside, it was undoubtedly Brody.
Sienna also recognized it. Although it was blurred, she could distinguish
it based on years of impressions.
But why didn't the unfamiliar people notice? Probably because they
weren't familiar or didn't know enough.
Sienna stared at Camille and asked, âYour dad... no, I should call him
Mr. Armstrong. He has someone outside who had a child?"
