Revenge is best served cold

Chapter 272 Public Opinion Takes a Sharp Turn

I was particularly firm and unwavering. Even the reporters were stunned momentarily. Then, they continued to bombard me with questions.

"Does your deal with Mr. Simpson end with cooking? Is it just that simple?"

"Word has it that Mrs. Simpson has been staying overseas recently. Does she know about what's going on between you and Mr. Simpson?"

I cleared my throat and intended to answer. However, another deep female voice rose in the air and responded on my behalf, "I know the answer to that question."

I turned around, and a noble lady who had maintained her appearance well showed up in front of us. I recognized her. She was Mr. Simpson's wife, Judith Maynard.

Mrs. Simpson met my gaze and flashed me a smile. Then, she walked toward me slowly.

The reporters also recognized who she was, and they immediately huddled around her.

Before they could ask anything, she said, "I'm aware that Ms. Brown has been cooking for my husband. Sometimes, he'd even record some videos and send them to me. As for the false comments on the internet, we'll hold the responsible party accountable until the culprit is caught."

Now that Judith was backing me up, the reporters dispersed quickly. My mind went blank for a moment as I looked at Mrs. Simpson, who ruined my plan.

"What are you waiting for? Come inside and take a seat." She opened the door and cocked her head as she invited me.

I nodded and followed her hurriedly. I knew from my past life that Mrs. Simpson had Mr. Simpson under her thumb, but I never knew just how serious it was.
