Chapter 622: Chapter 622: The Way of Others (2)

Briella Edwards immediately felt uncomfortable. After waiting for a while, she didn’t receive a call from Edward Clark, but instead, saw these disgusting videos of him. No matter how forgiving she was, she was still a woman.

Thinking about all her sufferings at the Clark residence over the years, Edward, as a man, had never prioritized her. In her early years, she endured silently because she loved him, and now she continued to tolerate the indifference of the Clark family for the sake of Ruth. In the end, what she got in return was Edward’s betrayal.

She still vividly remembered the promises Edward made when they got married. It was because she valued his honesty and devotion that she married him without hesitation. Now, Ruth hadn’t even turned ten, and Edward already committed such shameless acts. How could she not hate him?

"...Let’s go to the room and talk," Edward couldn’t greet his parents first and instead walked directly to Briella’s side, intending to lead her to the room.

"There’s nothing to talk about." Briella fiercely shook off Edward’s hand, "You have the nerve to do such a thing and still want to talk to me? Edward, just wait for our divorce. I’ll file a lawsuit."

She didn’t even want to talk, but filed for divorce directly. Briella was really furious this time.

"I was framed!" Edward suddenly shouted. When a criminal was sentenced to death, the Judge would allow them to plead before execution. But he didn’t even have the chance a criminal would, as he was directly rejected, right?

"..." Briella raised her head to look at him incredulously. How could he be framed in such a situation? Was he trying to be the second Bryan Cooper?

Who could be so blind as to send a beautiful woman to frame him, Edward Clark?

"Hmph—" Briella snorted coldly, clearly not believing him.

Edward’s face immediately fell. The reason he didn’t come back in time after the incident was that he felt he had been set up. Then he received a video on his phone of himself and another woman in a compromising situation. He called everyone who attended yesterday’s birthday party one by one, but they were all hungover.

So, no one knew what had happened to him, and apart from the video, everything else was vague. He was clearly drinking wine with friends, but didn’t know when he passed out.

This video must have been taken after he was drugged and unconscious.

"It’s true. I was drugged last night while drinking with them," Edward didn’t want to say this in front of their parents, but now he had no choice.

"Where’s the evidence?" Briella wouldn’t believe him. Any man who encountered such a beautiful woman would willingly accept her. Who would be framed or drugged to go to bed with a beautiful woman?

She had only heard of women being drugged and sent to a man’s bed, not men being drugged and having beautiful women sent to them.

"..." If he had evidence, he wouldn’t have come back empty-handed but would have brought the evidence with him.

"Fine, you just wait." Briella pushed him away and left with her packed suitcase.

"Where’s Ruth?" Now that their son was back, Mrs. Clark was more confident. If her daughter-in-law wanted to leave, what about her granddaughter?

"..." Briella turned around, glaring venomously at Mrs. Clark. For a moment, she felt somewhat terrified and unconsciously stepped back, "She’s my daughter. Do you think a man like your son is qualified to raise her?"

Her implication was that they would never see their granddaughter again in their lifetimes.

It was quite ironic. Before, they never properly played the roles of grandparents, and the whole family revolved around Charlotte. Ruth only became the focus of the family after Charlotte left.
