Chapter 840 Whitewashing
Ms. Durham looked at her son in this state, heartbroken.
She asked, "Wyatt, what dream is it? Get up and talk to Mom, okay?"
Wyatt kept his eyes tightly closed and said, "Get out!"
"Wyatt..." she said.
"I said get out!!" Wyatt suddenly opened his eyes and roared at everyone in the house, "Get out!"
The Durhams were shocked.
From childhood to adulthood, Wyatt had never spoken to his parents like this. Even when they argued most fiercely because of his relationship with Stella, he was at most resigned, never shouting at them like this.
"Let him be for a while." Mr. Durham sighed and led his wife away.
Ms. Durham was somewhat frightened by Wyatt's behavior. After glancing at him, she chose to leave with Mr. Durham.
Outside, Mike was on the phone.
As Ms. Durham left, she heard him say, "Yes, Wyatt's parents have returned; yes, I will return to Emerald Pool now."
Mike used to be with Janna. In recent years, he had often been seen with Fiona.
Ms. Durham knew who he was.
"Sir, thank you for taking care of my son," Mr. Durham approached politely.
Mike nodded slightly and hesitated before leaving.
After all, Wyatt had helped Miss Chelsea in her time of need.
So Mike couldn't help but say, "Wyatt's condition doesn't seem right all the way back; you two should pay more attention."
Due to Fiona had Darwin stood on Stella's side, Ms. Durham had a problem with Fiona.
Ms. Durham sneered, "What, do you think my son can't survive without Stella?"
Mike fell silent.
"Since we're here, whether you appreciate it or not is up to you!" Mike spoke again, his tone less friendly, "I just don't understand. You've pushed your son to this point, and you don't have an ounce of remorse? Is it because you've been educated too much that you've become so thick-skinned?"
"You!" Ms. Durham's face changed drastically.
"That's enough!" Mr. Durham held his wife back and then said to Mike, "Thank you for everything that you've done these past few days, go rest!"
Mike didn't want to stay either. He left Wyatt's place straight away.
After he left, Ms. Durham broke free from her husband's grip, saying, "What are you doing? The Durham family hasn't fallen so low that I need to see the face of a lowly security guard."
"Have you caused enough trouble? How far do you want to go before you stop?" Mr. Durham had never seen his son, who used to be so spirited, in such a sad state, which broke his heart.
However, Mr. Durham also felt that Stella's scandal was not a good choice for a daughter-in-law. But if, just because of this, he had to let his son sink to this point, Mr. Durham firmly chose to support Wyatt and Stella being together.
Unfortunately, in this world, there is no pill for regret.
At the moment, he just wanted to do everything he could to help his son recover a normal life and a healthy body as soon as possible.
He didn't expect that Ms. Durham was still caught up in the past.
"Or are you going to push Wyatt to this point and completely ruin our relationship with the Darwins?" Ms. Durham wasn't so confused as to want to make enemies with the Solomon and the Rhoads family.
"I just don't understand, a mistress's illegitimate child with such a bad reputation, why does Fiona insist on standing by her, defending her?" Ms. Durham covered her face, sat on the sofa, and sobbed.
Everyone was telling her she was wrong.
But what was she wrong about?
Ms. Durham only had Wyatt as her son; how could she just watch him marry such a woman?
Mr. Durham lowered his eyelids and fell silent for a moment, "Emma, have you ever thought that someone as insightful as Fiona would be friends with the kind of despicable person rumored in the outside world?"
Ms. Durham was taken aback. She looked up, frowned, and looked at Mr. Durham, saying, "What do you mean?"
"Nothing." Mr. Durham hesitated for a moment but finally said, "I just think that if you transfer your resentment towards her mother onto her, it will lead you to make the wrong judgment!"
"What do you mean by transferring my resentment towards her mother onto her? When did I ever resent such a despicable person? How bad is Stella's reputation? How many men has she slept with?"
"What about Wyatt?" Mr. Durham interrupted in a deep voice, "You've said before that Wyatt's girlfriends change too quickly, so what? Is it okay for your son's private life to be open but not for other people's children?"
"She's a woman! Can it be the same?" Ms. Durham blurted out.
But Mr. Durham was a clear-headed person; he said, "What's the difference between men and women? They're all human beings!"
Just as she was thinking, Ms. Durham's phone rang.
She glanced at it; it was Wyatt's cousin, the little girl she liked very much.
After listening to a few words from Mr. Durham, she was about to have a heart attack.
Ms. Durham didn't want to argue with him, so she answered Wyatt's cousin's call gently, "What's wrong?"
"Something happened!"
"What happened?" Ms. Durham sat up immediately.
"Just now, several media outlets reported that Rebecca... Stella's half-sister has been slandering and defaming me since Stella was nineteen! Aunt Emma, we've really misunderstood Stella; she seems... not that kind of promiscuous person..."
"It's impossible!" Ms. Durham stood up, denying it subconsciously.
"Really, the Beaumont family has already started the legal process. I asked Preston's wife. It's irrefutable evidence," Wyatt's cousin said urgently. I have reliable information here. Soon, the White family will also issue a statement admitting this. The White family has cut ties with Rebecca!"
"This must be the Beaumont family trying to whitewash Stella!" Ms. Durham still didn't believe it.
There was a moment of silence on the other line.
"Ms. Durham, this is a shocking matter. It's just exploded on foreign social media, but it won't be long before it spreads on domestic social media as well," Wyatt's cousin said in a low voice. "It's better not to let Wyatt see this. I'm afraid he can't handle it."
It seemed to wake Ms. Durham up immediately. She replied, "I understand!"
"What's next? Should I message you on Facebook?"
Ms. Durham wanted her to refrain from sending it.
But...
Ms. Durham replied, "Yes."
The call ended.
Ms. Durham sat back on the sofa, looking somewhat dazed.
"What was I saying just now?" Mr. Durham slapped his thigh and said, "If Stella is really such a despicable person, Fiona wouldn't be friends with her; now that the truth is out, it turns out someone is behind all this!"
"It's the Beaumont family whitewashing!" Ms. Durham stuck to her words.
Mr. Durham moved his mouth. Then he waved his hand and said, "Forget it; she's someone else's wife now, and she can't be with Wyatt in this lifetime, so whether it's true or not doesn't matter to our family."
