My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit novel Chapter 360

Secondly, after he broke off their ties, he announced Lyra's true identity. This way, the outside world would no longer question the severance of their father-daughter relationship and would only praise his sense of honor. After all, he raised someone who was not his biological child to such an age, but in turn, this adopted daughter harmed him and Trison Corporation. Even if he severed their ties, the outside world would only stand by him and sympathize with him.

Even the business community would not ostracize him. Him raising a child that was not his own until she was an adult was enough to prove that he was affectionate and true. He decided to sever their ties because his adopted daughter was too much and he was forced to do so. The business community might even take the initiative to cooperate with him because of

pity

Now, it was up to Brandon to decide whether or not he would announce Lyra's true identity.

Sydney narrowed her eyes and stared at Brandon on the screen.

She realized that she had underestimated him.

Every time she thought Brandon was finished, he managed to get through it.

Sure enough, she was still too young to fight against such an old fox. She was not experienced enough!

After all, he had lived more decades than her, so he naturally had more cards to play. In the hospital, Julien frowned and also looked at Brandon silently.

Beside him, Zach exclaimed, "No way. How could he sever ties with Lyra now? Is he crazy? He’s putting righteousness above family loyalty. People on the Internet will praise him and think he did a good job, but they'll also be disgusted with him. After all, in their eyes, even if Lyra is in the wrong, she's still his daughter. It’s too ruthless for him to cut his ties with her just because of that. The netizens won't support him anymore, and the business world won't accept him either. He must’ve gone mad."

"No, he didn't go mad. Look at his face. He's too calm. That's the appearance of someone confident in solving his problems. Brandon is a cunning man, so definitely knows about what you said.

Since he said it regardless, there must be something going on that we're unaware of, and that something can make him successfully clear his name." Julien pursed his thin lips.

Zach's eyes widened. "You mean he still has a card up his sleeve?"

Julien raised his chin and said, "Keep watching. The reporters will answer our questions."

Sure enough, after the reporters at the scene recovered from their shock, a new wave of sharp questions hit Brandon again.

"President Madden, are you severing ties with your daughter?"

"Yes!" Brandon replied.

The reporter continued to ask, "Don't you think it's too inappropriate and ruthless for you to break off your ties at this time?" "Yes. She's your daughter after all. Even if she did something wrong, you're too coldblooded to sever your ties at this juncture. Did you choose to do so because you don't want to be implicated?"

Brandon looked at the reporters, gripped the microphone, and said in a low voice, "I admit that I shouldn't have announced to sever my ties with Lyra at this juncture, but I don’t feel like I'm being cold and heartless. On the contrary, I feel that I've done Lyra a great service. I've raised her till adulthood and didn't ask for anything in return, but she harmed my family and Trison Corporation. I believe that everyone can see the situation that Trison is in now. To save Trison, I can only cut off ties with her. That's because she's not my biological daughter!"

Once those words were out, the entire room was shocked.

Zach sucked in a breath of cold air. "Lyra isn't Brandon’s biological daughter?"

Julien's eyes also clearly held a trace of surprise, but it quickly disappeared.

Yes, he had previously overlooked a very important point: Lyra and Clarice's ages.

Clarice should be twenty-six this year, but Lyra was also twenty-six.

However, if they were born to the same mother, it was impossible for them to be the same age since Mrs. Madden did not give birth to twins.

Lyra appeared in the Madden family one year after Clarice's "death", and Brandon told the outside world that Lyra was born to Mrs. Madden. Due to the one-year period, no one found any problem with that.

However, Lyra's age did not start counting from when she joined the Madden family. The wealthy ladies of the outside world did not pay much attention to age, so many people neglected this point.

This was what led to the fact that many people did not find out that there was something wrong with Lyra's identity.

In Shallow Bay, Sydney saw Brandon announce Lyra’s identity and was not surprised.

She already guessed it.

That was because this was the only thing Brandon could do if he wanted to save himself.

In the Madden residence, Mrs. Madden and Clarice also heard Brandon's words.
