For three days, Nancy handled her work for Veyo Solutions from home as she waited for the controversy to die down a little.With so many things happening every day, people would soon forget about this incident once some time had passed.This time, Jayson had helped her resolve a major crisis. Most of the online posts about her had been removed from the internet. It made Nancy feel much relieved.While those posts were mostly attacks aimed at her, Nancy knew very well that Jayson was troubled by the situation too.No matter how tough the situation might be, Jayson had always found a way to help solve the problem and made sure that Nancy wouldn't be harmed in the slightest.Gradually, people would realize that Ariel meant absolutely nothing to Jayson and that they should choose to side with whom they should.On Thursday, Nancy dropped by her office.She had made an appointment a while back to meet with a client on that day. Around 3:00 pm, Nancy arrived at the client's company bui

Jayson could have just come up with an explanation and glossed over the details.Neither Renee nor Evelyn had gone near Betty's room. They waited in the living room as they wanted to avoid having Betty overhear them discussing matters that would most likely involve Ariel.At 7:00 pm, Jayson came in through the front door.Evelyn was sitting on the couch and looking at the quarterly financial reports of her businesses in Sorenta.She raised her head and glanced at Jayson. "Have you eaten? Should we ask the maids to prepare some food for you?"Renee had run out of patience. She hurried toward Jayson and grabbed the sleeve of his shirt. "Jay, how on earth did things turn out like this? Doesn't it look really bad for Nancy now? You must have some sort of way to help clear Nancy's name, right? I know that our company's PR department is very competent at handling these tasks."Jayson cast her a sideways glance and pulled his hand free. "You should go and sit on the couch as well."Ren

Ariel was shocked. For a brief moment, her eyes reflected her amusement.Evelyn wanted her to help clear Nancy's name so that they could put an end to people's discussion and speculation regarding the incident.Evelyn could roughly tell how Ariel felt about her request. Still, she said calmly, "I'm not saying that because I want you to help Nancy. Instead, it's for Jayson's sake. He's your husband, after all."While most people would think Nancy was the one trying to approach Jayson, some might make other speculations. You've worked in public relations before. You know very well how to resolve the issue in the most cost-effective way, don't you?"Even rumors or speculations circulated among a small group of people could potentially damage Jayson's reputation.Evelyn did not want him to be affected by this incident in the slightest.Besides, Ariel was Jayson's wife. She was obligated to consider the matter by taking into account what was best for Jayson. Wouldn't it be better for

Frederick had already made up his mind. Nancy didn't deserve the hate she was getting. If she said yes, he would gladly be her safe harbor.He had liked her from the beginning. But out of respect for her relationship with Jayson, he had never crossed the line. Now that he knew they weren't officially together, why shouldn't he try?Nancy didn't look the least bit surprised, as if she was used to this kind of situation. She looked at him calmly. "Mr. Swanson, thank you for liking me, but I think we're better off as friends."Besides, Jayson never even liked Ariel. There wasn't a trace of feeling there. So how did anyone think she could actually hold onto that position?Still, Nancy hadn't completely shut the door on Frederick. After all, they were all part of the same circle, bound to cross paths again. They might even work together in the future.Frederick picked up on that. He knew Nancy had high standards. But when it came to love, he was no less than Jayson. At least he could g

The backlash was inevitable. By the time Sarah got home, she was fuming."These women are so short-sighted! They don't even know who Jayson's protecting, and they're already picking sides!" she snapped.Nancy closed her eyes, trying to stay calm. Her voice was cool when she replied, "It's fine. I'll talk to Jayson. Once he knows what's going on, he'll handle it right away."Sarah didn't doubt that. Still, the whole thing left a bitter taste in her mouth."Ariel really takes after her mother. She pretends she doesn't care about anything, but underneath, she's always scheming and always trying to win. If she hadn't pulled that stunt and brought Mrs. Larkin Senior into it, maybe you and Jayson would've—""Mom." Nancy cut her off. She wasn't in the mood for this. "That doesn't matter anymore. Jayson had no choice. Mrs. Larkin Senior was right there, and he had to think about Bluum Corp's reputation. He had to acknowledge Ariel."With so many people around, it was impossible to keep t

The second Zach saw the headline, he tapped in immediately.It was a screen recording from a live stream. The footage showed Nancy's face just as Jayson's voice came through loud and clear.
