Brody looked at Bethany in shock when he heard the word "divorce".
In the past, Bethany had never asked for a divorce no matter how hard their lives were or how bad they had quarreled.
He somehow panicked when he heard her say the word for the first time today.
It was not that his heart didn't ache for her when he saw how distraught she was but that he really didn't know what to say at the moment.
Everything that he said now would be wrong!
He said quickly, "Aisling, I'm not getting a divorce!" His tone was firm and he looked at her guiltily.
"Haha..." Bethany laughed miserably. She walked hurriedly to Brody, grabbed his collar and said word by word angrily, "Brody, if you still have a conscience, divorce me immediately."
She hated to be betrayed, especially by her closest and most beloved person.
She could understand why Cyan had betrayed her. After all, she had never been nice to Cyan. She could actually understand the things that Cyan did today.
However, Brody was different. He was the person who had gone through the hardships with her until the present day.
They had been through ups and downs together for more than twenty memorable years.
Brody lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
Bethany became enraged when she realized that Brody was going to keep silent again. She roared at Brody desperately, "Brody, are you a human? I did all the things for you and our family.
But what about you? Why do you have to embarrass me before you're willing to stop?"
Brody still remained silent. He would never agree to divorce Bethany.
However, if he didn't agree to the divorce, this matter would become a part of their daily quarrel in the future.
He knew Bethany's character very well. She could hold onto a mistake that he had done and nagged about it for the rest of her life.
Moreover, this was a serious matter!
He would hear her mentioning the matter every day at home and she would remind him all the time that he had betrayed her and the family.
Didn’t he have an affair because of her bad temper?
Brody was feeling extremely torn in his heart. At the same time, he was seeking an excuse for himself.
"Brody, say something! Do you know what I hate most? The thing that I hate most is when you refuse to speak when you have done something wrong.
What do you want? Tell me clearly!" Bethany roared angrily. She felt like she was going crazy.
"Aisling, I..." Brody was about to speak when he suddenly saw three policemen entering the room.
One of them was Graeme.
Graeme looked at Bethany and said, "Bethany, you're suspected of being involved in a kidnapping case.
Please come with us!"
Bethany calmed down when she heard that.
She turned around and looked at Graeme with teary eyes.
She had already forgotten about the issue because of Brody's matter.
Anson looked at Graeme, stood up and said with a smile, "Graeme, it's been a while since we last met!"
Only then did Bethany realize Anson's presence. She was too angry and shocked just now that she had forgotten that Anson was there and had let him watch a good show!
Graeme also said with a smile, "Mr. Skye, it's been a
long time since we last met!"
After that, Graeme hinted at the two men behind him.
The two men stepped forward and the younger police officer said, "Bethany, please come with us!"
