Joseph’s expressions turned even uglier.
Then, Brettley waved his hands to the people behind him.
Zach and Yuri each brought two men in. Seeing the men being tied up, Joseph subconsciously took a step back. His expressions were extremely ugly.
Brettley leaned back on the chair. He crossed his legs gracefully. “Security told me that they saw a few suspicious people. When we looked at the surveillance footage, we found out that you were the one who brought these men over, my dear father-in- law.”
Brettley placed his hand on the office desk and gently tapped the desk with his long fingers. “These few men could still take a woman down, but they were no match for the Morrison Group security.”
Upon Brettley’s words, Joseph’s expressions kept fluctuating. He blushed, then turned pale, then turned dark.
Bethan was stunned for a while before realizing what was happening.
She lifted her eyes and looked at Joseph in disbelief. “
You planned for some men downstairs to ambush me?”
Since his plans were exposed, Joseph decided to go all out. He coldly glared at Bethan. “Did you really think I was coming here to reconcile with you? Alice was right. You dream of even being a Peterson! Your name is even similar to Alice’s before she changed her name! “
The more he talked, the more it sounded like mockery when he said, “When I said I was your father, you even stopped for a while. Did you feel that you got lucky and you could finally be part of the family and stand next to my daughter openly?
“Let me tell you, Bethan, it is impossible! Not in this life! “
Then, Joseph sighed regretfully, “What a pity. It would have been a success today…”
Bethan clenched her fists tightly by her side. She looked at the seemingly psychotic man in front of her.
He was her father. Two days ago when he was held up at the police station, he even pretended to be a pitiful old man, asking her to let him go.
At that moment, once he was out, he changed completely.
He came over and called her by her nickname, calling her his daughter. All this was just to humiliate her!
Bethan closed her eyes. If it were not for Brettley, she would really be threatened by him to go downstairs and have a so-called coffee with him.
Once she followed him downstairs, she would be ambushed and beaten up by the men that Joseph brought over.
This was her father, the same man that she had been trying to find excuses for all this while!
After a while, she raised her head and looked at Joseph with hatred in her eyes. “Joseph Peterson. If I knew you were like this, I never would have pleaded on your behalf. I never should have let you off the hook. You should have just stayed in prison and repent! “
Joseph laughed at her words, “You, pleading on my behalf? Letting me off the hook? Why do I need you? The only reason I was released was because of my son-in -law. He went to look for Mo Sam personally and convinced him to take the blame! “
Then, Joseph harrumphed coldly and looked at Bethan, his eyes filled with condescension. “Bethan, who the hell do you think you are? You are only someone who dreams of being my daughter and a husband- stealing b*tc…”
“Joseph Peterson! “
Bethan gritted her teeth. She clenched her fists so tightly they made cracking sounds. “Do you think that just because the plagiarism incident is over, you’d be safe? There is no such thing.”
Bethan lifted her head. Her gaze was cold, without any ounce of emotions. “Don’t you forget, I still know a secret of yours.”
Joseph furrowed his brows and looked at her. He sneered, “What else could you do to me?”
“Mr. Peterson, I don’t think you know me well enough. “
Bethan chuckled. She pulled a chair by the side and took a seat.
Bethan crossed her legs gracefully. Her voice was gentle. “My greatest strength is not in jewelry design, but a good memory. I still remember many things from the past.
“For example, twenty years ago, there was an orphanage at the eastern part of Sea City.”
Joseph laughed, “What does an orphanage twenty years ago have to do with me…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Joseph’s eyes widened suddenly.
20 years ago, the orphanage in the eastern part of the city!
That was the place where he swapped his true biological daughter he had with Natasha with Cynthal!
Brettley lifted his head and looked at Bethan. He was in shock. “How did you…”
How did she know?
The orphanage has long been demolished! How did Bethan manage to find out?
“Not only do I know about that. I still remember that the last name of the head of the orphanage was called Chapman.”
Joseph subconsciously took a step back.
Previously when he was in the police station, in order to get Bethan to forgive him and let him go, he told her about the incident where he swapped his child for another child back then.
In a mere two days, she actually managed to locate where the orphanage was and the head of the orphanage!
How powerful was Bethan?
Joseph’s forehead had a layer of cold sweat.
If Bethan already knew so much, it would be sooner or later that she would find evidence of how he swapped children back then!
The child that he swapped his daughter with was a powerful foreign family.
If they were to pursue this matter…
Not only would he lose his precious daughter, Cynthal, but he would also have to go to prison!
This consequence was much worse than him leaking the Morrison Group’s confidential information!
At that thought, Joseph squinted his eyes. “Bethan, you’re being too much.”
Bethan laughed out loud.
“Mr. Peterson, am I the one that’s being too much? I have already chosen not to pursue the plagiarism incident. I chose to let it pass. However, Mr. Peterson, why did you come to look for me today?”
Bethan raised her hand and pointed at the men that were being tied up by Zach and Yuri.
“If I were to follow you downstairs, am I going to get beaten up and hospitalized? So am I the one being too much?”
Bethan angrily glared at Joseph. Her voice broke due to her agitation. “Your family has been constantly trying to trick me and humiliate me! I have already chosen to let this incident go, seeing how you and Natasha are old and also because of your daughter, yet you still want to come at me!
“Since you won’t repent, you even brought men to beat me up, there is no need for me to show you any mercy.”
Then, Bethan immediately turned to look at Zach. “
Make a police report and arrest them! “
“Yes, Ms. Bethan.”
Upon Bethan’s words, Zach immediately took his phone out. “Hello, I would like to make a police report…”
Joseph was standing near Bethan. His face turned pale, then it darkened, then it blushed.
In the end, he clenched his fist tightly. “So what if I brought men to beat you up? You made my daughter so sad. I’m her father, should I not do something? Furthermore, I was only planning to beat you up, I didn’t succeed! Even if you report me to the police, I’m not afraid! “
Bethan sneered. She raised her eyes and looked at Joseph. “How do you know that I ‘m only making a police report because you wanted to beat me up?”
The alarm in Joseph’s mind instantly blared upon Bethan’s words.
He remembered about the orphanage incident Bethan mentioned a moment ago.
Joseph glared at Bethan.
Was she going to expose the things he did zo years ago?
If this matter were to be investigated, his life would be finished!
Joseph glared at Bethan fiercely. Rage has overwhelmed all of his thoughts. He turned around and immediately noticed the cutting knife on the office desk behind him.
Evil thoughts rose in Joseph’s mind. The instant where no one noticed yet, Joseph immediately picked up the cutting knife and stabbed in Bethan’s direction violently!
If Bethan wanted him to suffer, he would make her suffer too!
“Be careful! “
