My Ex-husband Begs Me Back novel Chapter 1300

Chapter 1300: Judgment

"What do you mean?"

"What do I mean? Don't you understand? The way I am now, it's all because of your family, the Armstrong family. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't be like this. You think I didn't discipline Grace well, but what about you? Did you intervene? If you haven't done what you should have, then don't blame others. Let me tell you, as long as I don't want to step down, that despicable woman you're hiding will never take my place. You and that bastard child of hers will forever be illegitimate!"

"Shut up!!!" Brody visibly panicked, his face filled with anger as he stared at Page. It was unclear whether it was because Page mercilessly exposed his secret or because he didn't want anyone to know about his affairs outside.

After all, the roles they played in this circle were that of a loving couple. Even though they had been married for many years and their children had also married, their marriage was still as strong as ever, a model for the modern era.

But in this instant, this so-called model couple completely tore off their facade.

Brody was naturally furious, especially since their household included servants. Even though these servants had been with the Armstrong family for many years, they were still outsiders. And since they were outsiders, there was a possibility that these words would be spread.

The thought of this made Brody even more enraged. His eyes were filled with a hateful expression, and the more he thought about it, the more displeased he became. He raised his hand and slapped Page's face with force, a cold and triumphant smile on his own face.

The sound of that slap was heard by the servant eavesdropping in the kitchen. It echoed throughout the living room, and everyone heard it clearly, indicating that it was a powerful blow.

Page was probably dazed by the slap. For nearly ten seconds, she didn't respond at all. It wasn't until she realized that Brody had struck her that she completely exploded.

She discarded her gentle demeanor and the grace expected of high society. She became a completely broken woman.

But the disparity between men and women was already significant, yet even so, she acted as if she had gone mad and ignored everything.

In the end, Brody's face was scratched badly, and Page herself was in a miserable state. Her beautiful nails were broken, bloodstains remained, her hair was disheveled, her cheeks slightly swollen, and she looked pitiful.

However, when it came to fighting between the two of them, the servants dared not make a sound.

They didn't expect that this scene would be exposed that same evening.

It was the household servant, the one Preston had bribed, who secretly recorded a video of them during the altercation and sent it directly to Preston.

Although Preston had his own issues, the servant had received the money and didn't know what Preston's current situation was, so the video was still sent to him.

And so, the video of the fight was released, but the faces were conveniently blurred, and the voices were disguised, making it difficult to determine it was them.

However, as the parties involved, they were well aware. They immediately called the household servant, and naturally, no one admitted anything. They deleted any records, and Brody and Page couldn't really do anything to the servant because if they provoked the household, everything would be exposed. They had no choice but to turn a blind eye.

Until midnight, a call came to Brody's phone.

The person on the other end asked, "Did you see the video? How does it feel?"

Brody's face stiffened, his eyes filled with anger. He suppressed his anger in his voice but made an effort to remain composed as he asked, "What do you want from me?"

Preston reminded Brody to go over in the morning.

Brody didn't know what Preston's actions meant, but he had to follow his arrangements.

That night, Brody hardly slept. The video being exposed and the current threat from Preston kept him awake. Brody knew that there were people working for Preston in his own home, but who were the servants among them?

At this critical moment, he couldn't afford to create enmity or strain relationships with anyone because once things turned sour, they would undoubtedly reveal more damaging information.

So, while Page had not yet come downstairs in the morning, he called her over to the master bedroom. Normally, after a fight, they wouldn't engage in any further conversation, but today Brody took the initiative. Page felt a sense of superiority and looked down at him. She snorted and didn't want to acknowledge Brody.

Although Brody didn't want to pay attention to her, the situation called for it. He spoke up, "I want to discuss something with you."

Page snorted and looked at the nail marks on Brody's face. She thought he must have realized her power and didn't dare to act recklessly.

"What is it? Just because you want to discuss something with me doesn't mean yesterday's incident is forgotten," she said.

Brody couldn't be bothered with her attitude and simply said, "There are people working for Preston in our house."

Page was taken aback by his words and asked, "What do you mean?"
