The Unexpected Discovery Of Love Chapter 83

You could say they were pretty stupid to not have found out if something had happened to him earlier because the shoot-out happened in the morning and it was already evening . Did they not expect the call? Whether or not they thought of these things was not important .

Judith hung up with a frown, she really wanted to know what the situation was . After which she dialed her husband's line . He should be informed of the situation after all, it was his son . Her tone had quickly changed from estatic to terrified in seconds, her voice had gone from commanding to weak and subservient . "Darling, did you see the news? That is where Carl is he, is he okay?" She voiced her concern, hurriedly . "Are you worried about that good-for-nothing?" Yelled Brandon . He wasn't pleased that his wife was worried about someone who tried to have his way with her . Her question provoked him, he couldn't bring himself to imagine if his son had succeeded . It was abominable for a son to have nefarious thoughts about his mother . He knew that to have attempted to do a thing, the mind must have conceived thoughts on how to do that thing . She was his woman after all, it wasn't okay for a stranger to want to bed his wife, how much more his own son?

"He's our son, no matter what . Do you want him to die there? Why don't we bring him back, it's been almost a year now . " She said in a sweet voice, sighing . Of course, she didn't want him to return, she was only saying it, knowing her husband would never agree . She knew how jealous he could be, so she had exploited that point . Over the years, she had thought of ways to kick him out but she never succeeded . It was only with the help of her close friend did she manage to come up with such a plan . She did not need to move a muscle, everything fell into place as Carl was also asleep, he did not know what had happened either . Knowing how hot-tempered her husband was added to the fact that he did not like his son, it was bound to work in her favour .

"If you like him so much, why don't I kick you out too, you can go live with him . " Brandon spat out, his expression was sullen . Her eyes widened, she did not expect him to say that . What she was not aware of, was that he was tired of her and was looking for excuses to kick her out but she had stopped misbehaving . Part of him also felt that she enjoyed Carl kissing and groping her that night . The truth was that he did not witness it for himself, a "good maid" did not wish for her madam to suffer grievances so she told him against the wishes of her madam .

"Darling, wh . . what are you saying?" She panicked . How could he say that? She was expecting him to get more angry at Carl for trying to bed her and then solidify his resentment for his son, he won't be able to return in the long run . She had known him for so long, this was the first unexpected thing he had said to her . "He is your son and therefore my son, how can I . . . " She broke down crying . If things did not go her way, fake sobs would work on him . If only she knew that he had another woman to compare her to . "What are you crying for?" He yelled at her again . He found her son's irritating . He never felt that way before . Ordinarily, her tears would soften his heart, now he was only yelling at her . She began to suspect that something was really wrong with him . She wondered if she had done anything wrong recently, but that wasn't the case, ever since she returned to the capital, she had been low-profile . She had engaged in charity too to divert public opinion and improve her image . Why would he be mad then? 'Except he was having a bad day at work,' she convinced herself .

"I'm sorry . " She quickly apologized before hanging up . She must have called at a bad time, he would calm down later and return home to her, anyway . She hung up quickly to make him feel guilty, that he had wronged her when she did nothing wrong, she was only worried about their son . But he did not feel guilty, he did not feel he had wronged her . He was relieved that she hung up herself . When he looked up, he saw Hallie was up already, "Did I wake you up?" He asked in a soft voice, it was not as harsh as it earlier was . One would wonder how easy it was for him to flip his emotions without blinking an eye . "No . " She said yawning, lately she had been feeling so tired and hungry . She knew that she might be pregnant but the thought of bringing a child into the world to face her family and even the Blackwoods, frightened her . She did not want to raise a child in this kind of environment but she was helpless . "Are you hungry?" He asked . Without waiting for her reply, he called his secretary to deliver food for them .
