Zachary leaned back in his chair, furrowed his brow, shut down the computer, and stood up. “Let’s go.”
Back at home, the housekeeper had already prepared dinner.
After a simple meal. Zachary returned to the study to work overtime.
Lenora sat in the living room, watching TV for a while. She poured herself a glass of warm water and casually took out the medicine from the cabinet, swallowing it with the warm
water.
“You’re taking medicine? What’s wrong? Not feeling well?” Zachary’s voice suddenly came. from behind.
Lenora’s heart skipped a beat. She turned to look at him and calmly replied, “My stomach hasn’t been great lately.”
Zachary walked over and poured himself a glass of water. “Did you go to the hospital?”
He remembered Lenora’s excuse at the dinner table earlier in the day but didn’t suspect anything.
“I did.”
“That’s good. Take care of yourself in the future.
Listening to his caring words, Lenora nodded faintly, but her heart was filled with a sense of bitterness.
Early morning, Lenora was awakened by the persistent ringtone of her phone.
She groggily opened her eyes, reached for the phone on the bedside table, glanced at the screen, and answered the call. “Hello.”
The anxious voice of her assistant came through the speaker, “Ms. Wilkin, something bad hast happened. You need to check what’s trending.”
“What’s wrong?”
While asking that, Lenora quickly unlocked her tablet, and news notifications from various platforms flooded in.

There was a moment of silence from Lenora before Milly cautiously inquired, “Ms. Wilkin, how should we handle this?”
“Contact Susanna’s team. Don’t respond immediately. I’ll head to the office.”
On the trending page, there was only a photo of the two of them entering and leaving a restaurant, accompanied by speculative captions from social media accounts.
They could easily release a joint photo of the two teams in the restaurant, stirring up some positive publicity for their collaboration.
“All right.”
Milly was about to hang up, but Lenora stopped her. “Wait, listen to me. You have the joint photo from yesterday, right? Pick one where Mr. Fuller and Ms. Carston don’t appear too close and have it ready”
“Of course, of course, I got it.”
Lenora ended the call and quickly got up to freshen up.
As soon as she entered the office, Milly approached. “Ms. Wilkin.”
“Did Susanna’s team contact us? What did they say?” Lenora asked while walking into the elevator.
Milly hesitated before saying, “Mr. Fuller has handed this matter over to the PR department.”
Lenora pressed her lips tightly, not saying a word.
When the elevator reached the corresponding floor, Lenora stepped out and bumped into Lola.
As soon as Lola saw Lenora, a triumphant smile appeared on her face. With a sly tone, she said, “Well, if it isn’t Ms. Wilkin. Saw Ms. Carston and Mr. Fuller together at the Fuller Estate yesterday, didn’t we? Some people are trying so hard to win Mr. Fuller’s favor, but he’s not interested. He even said he’s not familiar with some folks. If I were them, I’d be too embarrassed to stay at Fuller Group. It’s really disgraceful.”
Milly’s face turned red with anger, but Lenora acted as if nothing happened, ignoring Lola and walking past her.
Upon hearing this, Lola called out to Lenora again. “Lenora, don’t you want to know how Mr.

Lola smirked triumphantly, slowly approaching Lenora. “Let me be honest with you. Mr. Fuller asked me to let the social media accounts leak that he and Ms. Carston were once lovers. Do you understand what that means?”
Lenora felt a chill run down her spine, her face turned pale. She absentmindedly returned to her office.
She picked up her phone and reopened the trending page. The comments below had taken a different direction now.
When a female celebrity becomes associated with a wealthy tycoon, internet users often let their imaginations roam freely, connecting the matter to notions of sugar daddy relationships and financial assistance.
This was particularly unfavorable for Susanna, who had just returned to the country for her
career.
Nevertheless, Lenora and Zachary’s historical romantic involvement was now unfolding on social media accounts. Users unearthed posts and photos from their university days, showcasing them as the campus’s standout couple. The images depicted them strolling together, strikingly well–suited.
As they reunited, there was a deliberate effort to rekindle their former connection.
Additionally, there had been previous speculations about Yara, the representative for Fuller, being replaced by Susanna.
Internet users had caught wind of something noteworthy.
