“I believe she won’t deceive me. Dad, after this press conference, if the group encounters any problems, I’ll take full responsibility alone.”
“You!” Mr. Hall’s face turned pale with anger, but ultimately, he compromised under Lydia’s earnest pleading.
The three of them sat together on the couch.
With the press conference starting earlier than expected, it meant that any further PR efforts by The Hall Group would be powerless against the media frenzy.
…
At the press conference.
The camera suddenly shifted to Quinn.
She had always maintained a gentle image in public. At this moment, she seamlessly blended with her persona, appearing like a well-behaved girlfriend sticking close to Wesley. Coupled with Wesley occasionally turning around to give Quinn an affectionate look, the online audience watching the live broadcast exploded with excitement.
[It’s too sweet, right?]
[It’s so addictive. Witnessing Wesley in love…]
[Quickly send me this girl’s information. I want to be her fan. A woman who can conquer Wesley is definitely my idol.]
Reporters, noticing the direction of public interest, quickly directed their microphones towards Quinn.
“Miss Quinn, can you tell us how you and Mr. Wesley fell in love? Regarding the recent incident of Mr. Wesley being involved with different women, how do you view it?”
Quinn’s expression stiffened for a moment. However, they had anticipated similar questions, and the answers were already rehearsed.
“When fate comes, it’s unstoppable. We worked together for some time and gradually got attracted to each other’s qualities, so we started dating. As for those private matters, I don’t mind. As long as he only has me in his heart from now on.”
She portrayed herself with composure.
Just as the online viewers were about to praise her for being ‘magnanimous,’ a strange figure suddenly appeared. The person was wearing a faded white down jacket, and the oversized hat couldn’t conceal the wounds on her face caused by violence.
Quinn was still puzzled when a sinister and terrifying voice echoed in her ears, “Why would you mind? After all, you’re someone who doesn’t even spare your friend’s husband.”
“Ah!” Quinn was startled and screamed. Seeing that it was Zella, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, but she quickly composed herself.
“Zella, why did you come over?” Quinn spoke softly, her eyes filled with concern. “Did he hit you again?”
Quinn still wore a concerned expression, Zella might have believed her if she hadn’t seen the disdainful gaze just moments ago. Zella forcefully pushed away Quinn’s hand, scolding angrily, “He hit me… Haha, wasn’t it you who instigated him when you were sleeping with him? You, scheming bitch…”
“Quinn, you despicable person, how long are you planning to keep up this act?”
“I didn’t, Zella, I didn’t,” Quinn bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes, presenting a scene that made anyone watching feel like Zella was bullying her.
The barrage of comments raised various questions.
[Where did that ugly woman come from? What if she scares my goddess?]
[The one above still dares to call her a goddess. Didn’t you hear what the ugly woman said? Your goddess sleeps with her husband.]
[I heard it too, it’s just disgusting. Sleeping with someone else’s husband is bad enough, and now she’s inciting domestic violence. ]
[That ugly woman clearly has mental issues, maybe she’s intentionally here to slander Quinn.]
Amidst the arguments in the comments and Quinn’s clever defense, Zella stepped closer to a computer on the scene and inserted a small USB drive.
Quinn immediately had a bad feeling. She was well aware of Stephen’s penchant for recording intimate videos. She ran frantically, shouting, “Stop her. She’s mentally unstable. If we continue like this, she’ll commit suicide on the spot.”
Unfortunately, the security had already been bribed by Evelyn. No one stepped forward to stop her.
Quinn watched helplessly as those videos played right in front of her, showcased to the entire nation. It’s a video of Quinn having sex with Steve, Zella’s husband.
The fans who had just defended her moments ago were now stunned.
Wesley, staring at the big screen behind, had a completely dark expression. This despicable woman had disrupted all of his plans.
A reporter took the opportunity to ask, “Wesley, witnessing such explosive videos of your girlfriend, what are your thoughts?”
“The relationship between Quinn and me is still under consideration.”
Listening to Wesley’s clear reluctance to take responsibility, Evelyn snapped her fingers and smiled. This was the moment she had been waiting for.
Evelyn notified the prearranged online army to start flooding the barrage with comments.
[Wesley, what kind of attitude is this?]
[What other attitude can there be? He probably doesn’t want Quinn anymore. Quinn was just saying she could accept his past, and this is how he repays her?]
[Quinn seduces a married man, it’s just shameless. Any man wouldn’t accept that.]
