Judith was unaware of the consequences of her actions. She didn"t know about the video or that it was uploaded. She was all smiles because she thought Carl would be heartbroken. "Which girl would want to live with a rapist?" she thought. She was satisfied with her plan, though she couldn"t get him fired but he"d be alone, all by himself without anybody. That is what he deserves for driving her son away.Her next plan was to ask Ryan to come back or get another child.. children if possible. Since the doctors said it would take a miracle for her to savely conceive, she can just fake it and adopt children later. What better way to solidify her position as the madam of the house. This was much better than being insulted by young mistresses everyday.
Her act had made it to the news and it was the trending topic. Just recently, a young Miss from a wealthy family a.s.saulted a salesgirl because she lightly brushed her. She claimed the salesgirl would only taint her as she was too busy. So the netizens have been sharing news of the rich and wealthy bragging, throwing tantrums and looking down on people.
Ever since the afternoon he saw the news, he had been trying to keep it under wraps but it seems the public didn"t want to let it go, plus he was up against Stan Group, they were good at controlling public opinion, so they kept adding fuel to the fire. Brandon was already angry started getting calls from the shareholders. The stocks were plummeting just because his wife couldn"t control herself in public.
Public Opinion was turning worst with each pa.s.sing hour as people continued to share the short clip and eye witness report only made things worst. They discovered she wanted the CEO to fire one of his employees for no reason as the CEO refused, she started shouting and threatening him.
"So this is what the "honourable madam" of the Blackwood family is like."
"If this is cla.s.s, we should be thankful for not having it.. I bet people from the red district can act better."
"These aristocratic families, always throwing their power. Who does she think she is? I think we should remind her of her family name and status, acting all mighty."
It continued like this till evening. As she was on the plane, she turned off her phone and forgot to put it on. Brandon who couldn"t get a hold of her became more enraged, he started smashing things at home.
Not knowing her husband had seen the video and was raging mad, she excitedly walked into the house. On seeing him, she was elated. Maybe this could be the start of her plan. They haven"t done it in a while because he"s "too busy." At first, she doubted him, but since she had no evidence and he always came home, she couldn"t complain.
Failing to notice his foul mood, she sat beside him.. holding his hand. Seeing her coy act, he felt disgusted. Is she really unaware of what she did today. It"s all over the news, with the different hash tags; #richactingmighty #blackwoodfamily #honourablemadam etc.
"Honey.." Running her hands on his chest she spoke softly.
Brandon on a normal day would have granted her request once she did that but today he felt disgusted so he pushed her away. Today has been one of the worst days of his life. His parents were asking him to get a young mistress to carry his children and forget about her. He needed someone more fitting for the family name, not someone who couldn"t control herself. His head was aching, he had been facing so much problem recently. Now she had made it worst. Investors he laboured to bring in were pulling out and he couldn"t do anything about it as the people were asking to boycott them.
She was surprised that her husband would push her away in front of the maids at that. She felt humiliated and immediately raised her voice. "Brandon how dare you? I am your wife and the mother of your son and you hit me like a slave."
Hearing her high-pitched voice, Brandon slapped her, it was the first time I he had done that. To say Judith was shocked was an understatement. He had never done that no matter what she did. No matter how difficult she acted, he would still pamper her but now, he had pushed her and slapped her.
"I guess you"re still unaware of the troubles you"ve caused me and the company." He said handing her the phone with the recording. Her face paled as she watched it, her shoulders slouched. Within her, she kept blaming Carl, if it wasn"t for him, she would not have gone to state A of be humiliated.
"I think I"ve pampered you a lot you can no longer reason. You"ll not step out of this house for the next three months, you are to think about the consequences of your actions." Concluding what he had to say, he immediately went to his study.
Judith was left there, looking lifeless...
