Forbidden Passion

Chapter 294 The Truth Revealed

Phoebe pursed her lips, somewhat unwilling in her heart. 'Theodore and I are on the verge of divorce, so revealing their marital status at this point seems unnecessary.' "Dad, I think we should ask Theodore first. He might not be willing..." Phoebe hesitated.

"What's he unwilling about? You're his wife. Being bullied by others like this, and he still wants to hide your identity, he's not much of a man." Brandon thundered. "In the Reynolds family, we don't raise such irresponsible men." Phoebe was taken aback. She rarely saw Brandon angry. Normally, at Brandon's age, he exuded authority without even trying. But once angered, his presence became even more intimidating.

Phoebe remained silent, not daring to speak.

Brandon seemed to sense her fear and softened his tone, "You don't need to worry about this matter. Just show up when the time comes."

This meant that Brandon had made the decision on his own, and calling Phoebe up was just a formality.

Phoebe didn't dare say more, thinking that Brandon had finished discussing business. As she was about to leave, Brandon said, "Phoebe, it might not be harmonious at home recently. Please persuade Theodore a bit more." Phoebe looked at Brandon in astonishment. Compared to his serious demeanor just now, Brandon seemed much kinder and more approachable at this moment.

Phoebe couldn't help but exclaim, "Dad, what's going on?"

Brandon, however, didn't want to elaborate. He waved his hand at Phoebe, indicating that she should leave. Without asking further, Phoebe got up and walked out.

Before leaving, Phoebe glanced back at Brandon.

Perhaps due to the dark clouds outside, the indoor lighting seemed dim, making Brandon's expression somewhat obscure.

At that moment, Phoebe seemed to sense the weight on Brandon's heart.

Brandon suddenly want to introduce her as the daughter-in-law of the Reynolds family? It seems like a way to appease someone, but who is Brandon trying to appease?' Phoebe walked out of the chairman's office, where Daisy greeted her and escorted her to
