Cheat with my boyfriend best friend by Jane E.L.

Chapter 492 Your Son is More Honest Than You

I never thought I would come upstairs and actually hear a topic related to me

And it remains such a disturbing topic, even if there is no one around, I instantly feel uneasy and hastily step back

But just as I turned around, in that split second, I saw Joe standing behind me, with the same frozen expression!

The moment our gazes met, it was actually me who evaded first

Because as I recalled all the things Joe had done and said to me, could it be that while I thought

our relationship was growing closer because of his kinship with Aaron, he actually harbored romantic feelings between a man and a woman?

Unfortunately, I was completely unaware of this for such a long time and accepted Joe's care for me without a second thought, especially during the days when Aaron left New York. I couldn't imagine how Joe must have silently endured his emotions and faced me who sought comfort and

help

No wonder Aaron was so excited when he saw Maria plotting against me and Joe last night when he just came back. No wonder he kept apologizing to me in the car last night and asking if I only loved him, acting so unusually because of his lateness

The sudden truth was so hard for me to accept

Aaron must have kept this matter hidden in his

heart for a long time, and... the current situation is also a cruel torment for Joe's feelings

I didn't know how to face each and every one of them

I swallowed hard and tried to turn around to escape, but unexpectedly bumped into the doorknob of the study. The slightly ajar door immediately swung open, and I saw Aaron inside quickly turn around. His face darkened when he saw Joe and me standing at the doorway

"Sorry, I came to see if you need... if you need coffee or..."

"Olive, you don't have to be like this," Joe's gaze fell squarely on me as I stumbled to explain the reason for my presence at the door. He interrupted my words with a very gentle tone

and proceeded to walk towards the study, "What Aaron said is indeed true, I like you, in that way between a man and a woman."

In front of my father and brother, I candidly confessed to my brother's wife

Even if this absurd scene were placed in a movie, people would discuss it for three days and three nights

But I was the protagonist among them

I opened my mouth, wanting to respond to Joe's words, but for a moment, I didn't know what to say

Aaron's gaze was fixed on Joe, and I knew that even though the two brothers had imagined countless times before confronting their father, they had never considered anyone publicly

exposing Joe's feelings for me

I was indeed a chip in this matter, but not a chip that could be openly and decently displayed

Fortunately, Joe didn't need anyone's response

He calmly locked eyes with Aaron, as if to assure him and put his mind at ease

Then, he turned his gaze to old Morris, and I saw the sparkle in his eyes, pure and innocent like a child

At that moment, I suddenly let go of my heart, thinking that Joe's sudden confession probably had his own reasons

Sure enough, in the next second, he smiled and called out "father"

"Unfortunately, Aaron and I would never have fought each other for money or gotten into a

physical altercation over a woman, as you had imagined."

We are your sons, and under your influence, we should have been fond of money and power just like you. However, precisely because we have witnessed you tirelessly striving for these things since childhood, I actually... do not wish to become a person like you

And father, I will not be as greedy as you, wanting both money and power, as well as long-lasting love. If I were to do so, I would end up like you now, losing my wife, losing my lover, constantly scheming, and ultimately losing even the power quickly

I noticed the vocabulary Joe used just now, wife, lover

He never forgot the late Mrs. Grace, even in a

scene like this today, his care for Aaron remains sincere and warm

This completely moved Aaron, and I was glad to see that he had detached himself from the emotions of Joe admitting his liking for me in front of me just now. We had known for a long time that this was a war that required the two brothers to face together

So Aaron also broke his silence and walked up to old Morris, pointing at Joe

"My brother, your favorite son, was more upright than you. He was not as greedy and corrupt as you, and neither my brother nor I would sacrifice innocent women in power struggles like you did."

There is one more thing I forgot to tell you. Not only did I give Joe all the shares under my

name, but when we signed the agreement, we also drafted a clause that stated that Olive's ten percent share would be completely retained as her personal property, and it is not allowed to be bought, sold, or transferred
