Chapter 225
Chapter 225 Do You Need Me?
After Titus shared the video in the group chat, Simone and Gwen clicked on it and began watching.
Once they were done, Simone wasn’t surprised with the contents at all. After all, Jodie liked to do these
things to seek attention, and she even treated the sc*mbags as possessions. However, if this video
were to be released, it would indeed be the talk of the
town.
Sc*mbag No. 2 was skilled at tricking his younger brother. Maybe he felt lonely after his video with
Jodie was exposedst time, and he just wanted his fourth brother to experience the same treatment
as him.
After Gwen finished watching, she said in exasperation, “Jodie is really good at pretending to be
innocent. She looks quite convincing, but I think your ex-mother must be furious this time.”
It was the first time Gwen had seen someone fighting so ungracefully with a broom like that.

Simone replied, “When she fainted and was hospitalized, I already suspected that she was angered
back then, but I really didn’t expect it to be because of this. Jodie and Andrew are really careless.”
“Mrs. Gray cares the most about pride and etiquette, so it’s no wonder she’d get so angry by the
way those two were caught red-handed.”
However, this was not the worst part for Salma. She had prepared a gift for her, a special gift from her
beloved adopted daughter. She just hoped that she would be able to withstand it when the time came.
Even so, Salma was someone who seemed fragile, but when it came to life and death, she could still
pull her weight, and it wouldn’t be easy to anger her to death.
After returning to the Gray Family, she had done the most for Salma, and she was hurt the most by her.
Except for Steven, with whom she had little interaction, no one had intentionally hurt her in words or
actions.
She still held a grudge against the others. Of course, Steven did nothing, so she treated him as a
stranger. Sc*mbag No. 2, Sc*mbag No. 3, and Sc*mbag No. 5 had been dealt with, and now it was
Salma, Sc*mbag No. 1, and Sc”mbag No. 4. Next up was Sc*mbag No. 4.
Gwen found it ironic. “She raised him herself. She brought this upon herself by angering her.”
Simone smiled. “Indeed, she will have more things to be angry about in the future.”
Meanwhile, Harold and Leon watched the video as well, and they looked at Titus with mixed
expressions once they were done.
Harold said, “Your fourth brother is even better than
you.”
Titus sneered. “I don’t want this kind of skill.”
“Jodie is practically squeezing him dry.”
Joe raised an eyebrow at Titus and asked, “Didn’t you say before that if Jodie came to you willingly, you
wouldn’t refuse? Is that still how you think?”
Titus shivered and replied, “I used to think that since she had no shame, I didn’t mind ying along.
But now she’s like a cursed spirit, and I dare not have her.”
He rubbed his arms and said, “I’m scared, I’m scared!” If Jodie ever wanted toe to his room on her
own, he would definitely not open the door.
Joeughed. “Look at how scared you are. Is it necessary?”
Titus nced at him and rebutted, “Since you’re not afraid, you can go!”
Joe shook his head with a smile. “I am loyal to Gwen, so I’m not interested.”
He turned to Leon and said, “Leon, you can have her. Jodie probably still wants to get you.”
Leon replied angrily, “Get lost.”
This guy’s mouth was getting more and more offensive. He had been keeping his distance from Jodie
before, but now he wanted to stay as far away as possible.
The three of them didn’t continue drinking, and each took a cab home.
In the following days, Simone was busy with her studio work. The original song Harry sang in the
foreign bar became very popr, but the sound quality recorded through live streaming was very poor.
Now that the song had a chance at topping the charts, Simone contacted Cebros’ best recording studio
and sent Harry to record it professionally.
As Fiona and Ethan had already joined the crew, she went to visit them as well. At the same time, she
was also preparing to join the crew and y the female supporting role in Alex’s historical film.
Meanwhile, at Gray Residence, Salma returned to the country with her three sons and Jodie. who sat
in a wheelchair that was pushed by Steven’s assistant.
Steven had just returned from a business trip abroad today and arrived home earlier. Upon seeing
Salma, who still didn’t look very well, he asked in a concerned tone. “How do you feel? Do you need to
go for another round of recuperation?”

Salma shook her head, I’m much better now; no need for further recuperation.”
If she went for recuperation, how could she keep an eye on her sons and Jodie? This time, she had to
invite someone to teach Jodie etiquette and see if she could correct those bad habits.
Steven didn’t insist any further. “Then rest well at home and don’t get angry anymore.”
He then looked at Andrew and Jodie, his eyes filled with coldness. Jodie tried her best to look. pitiful
and helpless, hoping that Steven wouldn’t vent his anger on her, while Andrew also shrank his neck
under his biological father’s gaze, wanting to escape.
“You guys talk first. I’ll take Jo upstairs to rest.”
Upon saying that, he was about to push the wheelchair with Jodie.
Steven’s face darkened. “Does Jo not have hands? Do you need to push her? Besides, my assistant
and your mom’s assistant are both here. Does she really need you? You scoundrel, not only did you do
something so shameful, but you also made your mom faint from anger. Tell me, how should I punish
you?”
This statement made Luca and Aaron, who were originally standing beside Andrew, quickly move away
to avoid being affected.
After all, their mom took her anger out on them that day. Who knows if their dad would do the same?
Andrew almost burst outughing from anger at their actions. These two brothers were simply
worthless. They were faster at running away than anyone else when something. happened.
He didn’t think he was in the wrong and casually said, “I know I was wrong. I won’t do it again. next
time.”
Steven could clearly see that his son was not convinced, and it made him furious.
“Do you really expect me to believe you?” he said, his expression icy. “Go kneel outside the door, you
fool. You can only get up when the sunes up tomorrow morning.”
Andrew couldn’t believe his ears and nced up at Steven. “Dad, I have to kneel for that long? Do I not
need my legs?”
Steven responded with a meaningful tone, “You won’t need your legs. You can sit in a wheelchair with
Jo; it’ll be perfect.”
Titus was also present at home during this time. Upon hearing this, he chimed in with a smile, “Yes,
little brother, you’re so fond of Jo, after all. It would be wonderful to sit in a wheelchair with her”

Andrew red at Titus. “You’re heartless, in and simple.”
Indeed, the second oldest brother was the most heartless of them all. He was still plotting against his
younger brother.
Titusughed and said, “I’m only thinking of your best interests. How else can you be with Jo?” He then
looked at Jodie and asked with a smirk, “Jo, don’t you want Andrew to be with. you?”
Jodie didn’t expect the conflict to involve herself. She silently criticized Titus in her mind. Why was he
behaving like a rabid dog, biting anyone in sight? She hadn’t provoked him at all.
She awkwardly replied, “Titus is just joking. I don’t need Andrew to be with me.”
“Dad, it was all my fault,” she said as she turned to Steven. “Don’t punish Andrew. Punish me instead.”
Andrew was the only one who treated her the best and remained loyal to her. She couldn’t let him slip
away, and she didn’t believe that Steven would make her kneel outside the door all night with a broken
leg.
