Semua Bab Marrying My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin: Bab 401 - Bab 410

Goodbye, My Lover was a highly anticipated new variety show. It was said to be the first to adopt a fully live broadcast format, and it had already generated immense popularity.If Bruce and Isolde showed even the slightest hint of affection or harmony on the show, the rumors of a "last meal" and a "last kiss" would collapse under the scrutiny of countless viewers.By then, not only would the divorce rumors be completely dispelled, but the gossip about a "relationship breakdown" and "third-party involvement" might also be entirely reversed.Claudia had schemed and planned for so long, only for it all to come to nothing, like drawing water with a colander. She might even lose her standing as a "thorn" in their marriage."If that really happens…"The butler saw the surge of hostility in Claudia's eyes and braced himself before speaking. "Actually, Your Highness, it may not necessarily be a bad thing. The reputation of being a 'third party' is, after all… not honorable."Besides, in

The show hadn't officially begun filming. It was still the waiting period before the opening, yet a tense, cold, almost explosive atmosphere had already formed between the two couples.The assistant director, Brian Crosby, was standing nearby, watching the scene with a grin that nearly reached his ears.This level of buzz, this kind of dramatic tension, required no scripting at all. Just a few minutes of real interaction were already enough to ignite the topic. He could practically see a massive hit variety show within reach.Still, beneath the excitement, Brian anxiously checked his watch and scanned the area. "Where's Director Miller? Why isn't he here yet? Still can't get through to his phone? When is he coming? The scheduled start time has already passed."The assistant looked on the verge of tears. "We really can't reach him. After Director Miller got called back by an urgent request from headquarters, he's been out of contact. It's been almost an hour. His phone has been off

Instantly, the few comments that supported Isolde or tried to remain neutral were drowned out by a surge of fan praise and threats. The livestream quickly became completely one-sided.The screen filled with remarks mocking Isolde, glorifying the so-called true love between Bruce and Claudia, and launching malicious speculation and personal attacks against Isolde.At the filming site, Isolde had no idea the livestream had already turned into a battlefield.But she understood one thing clearly. Appearing here hand in hand with Bruce was, in itself, a declaration of war against rumors and malice.Since she was there, she had nothing to fear.Brian suppressed his excitement and nerves as he personally led the cameraman forward for a brief interview.The camera stayed trained on the focal couple."Welcome, welcome, Prince, Ms. Vancrest. Welcome to Goodbye, My Lover!"Isolde offered a slight smile to the camera, poised and composed. "Hello everyone, I'm Isolde Vancrest."Bruce gave

Lorena cast a provocative glance at Isolde, her face brimming with confidence, as if she had already won.A test of tacit understanding?She and Eason had been together for years. Even if things had not been pleasant recently, the understanding they had built over time remained solid.She would definitely score perfectly: five points.Then she would make Isolde look completely worthless and show everyone just how incompatible this woman was with Bruce, how unsuitable they were.She turned toward Eason beside her and revealed a sweet smile. Her voice turned soft and coy. "Eason, answer well, okay... Do your best. I love you."However, Eason only gave her a cold glance before shifting his gaze away. He did not even bother to respond, as if she were nothing but air.Lorena's smile nearly faltered. A trace of embarrassment and anger flashed in her eyes, but she quickly suppressed it. She seemed used to this and kept her expression composed.The fans in her livestream were heartbrok

Mocker: [Isolde must be pale as a sheet. How is she supposed to answer this? Say it was because of Princess Claudia? That would mean admitting she got played and dumped. Her face and dignity would be completely gone.]OnceLoved: [I suddenly feel a little sorry for her, being humiliated like this in front of everyone.]PrinceGuardCharge: [Sorry for what? She brought this on herself! Who told her to hog a spot that isn't hers? Answer quickly, finish, and get lost! Our Prince is the real main character!]ICloseMyEyesWhenDark: [I bet the Prince's answer is definitely, "Met someone more suitable."]…Isolde's eyes flickered slightly at the question as she looked toward the director's seat.The director had changed, and the questions had grown sharper.She smirked to herself, but her face remained calm. She turned her head slightly and whispered something to the staff member writing on her behalf.The staff member froze for a moment, then nodded and quickly wrote on the small blackbo
