1649: Chapter 1641: I’m Afraid Her Next Move Will Be Even More Ruthless 1649: Chapter 1641: I’m Afraid Her Next Move Will Be Even More Ruthless “Baby, are you already asleep?
Did I wake you up?”
Since she had to go to the film shooting early, Joanna Lawrence went to bed early.
When Aria Rowlett called her, she was in a deep sleep.
But she lied: “I just lay down for a while and haven’t fallen asleep yet.”
“How about heartthrob, is he with you?”
“Mm, he’s asleep.
So I ca to the balcony to answer the phone.” The temperature in the early morning was a bit chilly, and the wind blew on Joanna’s face, driving away her only trace of sleepiness.
“Aria, why aren’t you sleeping at this late hour?” Joanna sounded worried, “Did sothing happen?
Is Brandon Heath with you?”
“I can’t sleep.” Aria went silent for a mont, then said, “He is with , but he spent a lot of ti looking for , and now he’s busy in the study.
Baby, are you sleepy now?”
Joanna realized Aria had sothing to say, so she replied, “Not sleepy, I slept early today.
Aria, do you have sothing to tell ?”
“Mhm.
I don’t know if I should tell you, but now, besides you, I don’t know who else to talk to about these things.
Baby, I want to tell you sothing and ask for your advice.”
Aria paused for a few seconds before continuing: “Baby, you know that Issac was arrested because he owed soone money.
But do you know who set him up?
Although I don’t have complete evidence yet, I’m sure it was her.”
Confusion floated in Joanna’s eyes: “Who?”
“Lady Octavia.”
Lady Octavia?!
Joanna was surprised for a few seconds, and her face showed astonishnt: “She set him up?
So she got Issac arrested, and the actual target is you?
She wants to use Issac to force you to leave Brandon?”
“Pretty much, but her thods are even more powerful than you think.
She didn’t directly use Issac to force away from Brandon, because she knows her son is capable of repaying those ten million dollars.
She threatened my parents to get them to help her solve the problem.”
“If I just agreed to leave Brandon, maybe I would change my mind at so point.”
“But if I married another man, she wouldn’t have anything to worry about.”
Joanna was shocked again: “You an she forced you to marry soone else?”
“She talked to my parents.
I don’t know what they discussed, but my parents want to marry another man for Issac’s sake.
Thankfully, that person is a neighbor I’ve known since childhood, otherwise, I wouldn’t know who I’d face when I open my eyes.”
“Joanna, do you think I should tell Brandon about this?”
“If I tell him, will he stand by my side or support his mother?”
“If he supports his mother, do you think we can break up?”
Brandon treats her very well.
But Aria didn’t have absolute confidence that he would stand by her side.
After all, Lady Octavia is his biological mother.
Brandon must be a dutiful son.
Aria never expected that he would quarrel with Lady Octavia for her sake.
Joanna seriously thought for a while before saying, “Aria, if you are asking for my opinion, I think you can tell him.
This ti, Lady Octavia didn’t succeed, but there’s no guarantee she won’t try again.
You can’t fight her alone.”
“I’m afraid she’ll be even more ruthless next ti.”
“Only by letting Brandon know about this and letting him handle it can you possibly solve it well.
Even if it’s not resolved properly, with his ability, he can protect you.”
“I believe he’s not a blindly obedient person and will definitely stand by your side.”
“When I first started dating Ashton Heath, I was also worried about the sa thing as you are.
But his performance did not disappoint .
I believe that Brandon is also the sa, he won’t be confused by what’s right and wrong just because Lady Octavia is his mother.”
