My Ex-husband Begs Me Back novel Chapter 1459

Chapter 1459 Lifetime

Kerry's words left Daisy completely silent.

Her expression was very cold, with a noticeably indifferent glint in her eyes. If anyone else were to see her like this, they would surely mistake her excitement for a change in her boyfriend's attitude.

Without a sound from Daisy, Kerry remained silent, not asking anything.

The atmosphere became unusually heavy, with both of them holding back a great deal of emotion, unwilling to let the other know.

Kerry had liked Daisy for many years and understood her every move and word, so he could accurately guess what was on her mind at this moment.

After a long silence, Daisy finally said faintly, "I was thinking too much. I'm sorry. Well, if there's nothing else, let's leave it at that for now. See you at the restaurant for lunch."

After saying this, Daisy didn't wait for Kerry to respond and hung up the call immediately.

This urgency left Kerry with no chance to react until long after the call had ended.

During lunch with Daisy, everything went smoothly, with no conversation besides work matters.

At the same time, the police also issued a message regarding the follow-up to the Armstrong family's situation, including the sentencing of Brody and Regina.

The swift release of this information was thanks to the attention of netizens, or else it wouldn't have been so quick.

The police mentioned in the verdict that both Brody and Regina were the masterminds, but Regina's plot was more heinous, so she was given a life sentence and stripped of all her finances. As for Brody, he was sentenced to twenty years, and all his assets were temporarily frozen.

The freezing of all his assets was proposed by Ayan to the police. This was done for public consumption, especially to let the people at Armstrong Corp know that if the shares of Armstrong Corp hadn't been transferred to Grace, Armstrong Corp would have faced significant consequences.

After this news came out, the netizens who had been following the case immediately cheered.

Camille also saw this news for the first time. She didn't have much of a reaction, as she had long expected this outcome.

However, there was still some hope and expectation on Brody's side.

After the police notified them of the verdict, Brody remained calm and believed that Camille would come back to save him.

But the truth proved him wrong. Camille had never intended to save him.

Although Camille didn't have much of a reaction or emotion, she still sent a message of comfort to Grace. Even though it had been many days since the incident happened, Grace's heart was still a little down and sad.

Around five o'clock in the afternoon, Brody and Regina were taken away by the prison. Not until this moment did Brody vaguely realize.

Brody refused to get in the car, and he was extremely agitated, constantly shouting to see Camille.

He said, "I want to see Camille. I want to see my daughter. Otherwise, I won't go."

Kian's eyes were very cold and low, which put a lot of pressure on Brody internally.

Brody knew that Camille's promise to rescue him from this place was just a lie to calm him, but now he knew this far too late.

Brody remained silent and showed no reaction for a long time, with no hope visible in his eyes.

Seeing this, Kian also didn't show any sympathy and calmly said, "Mr. Armstrong, everything has been said. I hope you will spend the rest of your life in peace inside."

Although it was only twenty years, Brody's body might not be able to withstand it.

As Kian left the ward, he leaned over and whispered something in Brody's ear as instructed by Ayan. Brody's face instantly turned pale and weak, with clear signs of panic and gloom in his eyes.

Kian took one look at him and then left the ward.

Kian had already coordinated with the police and the prison, and if Brody had any further discomfort, it would be dealt with in a straightforward manner. After all, they couldn't go to the hospital every time, and this matter had already caused a lot of dissatisfaction. If they allowed Brody to go out for medical treatment repeatedly, it would inevitably make people suspect a connection with Simpson Group. Therefore, everything had to follow the normal procedure.

An hour later, Kian returned to Simpson Group.

He knocked on the office door and briefed Ayan on the detailed situation. He also mentioned what Ayan instructed him to tell Brody, saying, "Mr. Armstrong had a fairly strong reaction after hearing my words. Perhaps he still held some hope, but after listening to me, I don't think he dares to have any thoughts."
