Innocent scandal with Mr PR のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 131 - チャプター 140

Gina’s POV“Of course, of course,” my uncle said with a light laugh. “I’m just asking if you two would support me if things get ugly.”“Of course,” the second man replied. “Why would we support some unknown person?”A strange feeling settled in my chest.Uneasy. Something was not right. Mum had just said I was joining the company’s board, so why was he already spreading the news and making it seem like I was coming in for a power struggle?At that moment, a waiter walked toward me.“Miss, are you lost?” he asked politely.My heart jumped.I forced a smile. “Yes, please… I’m looking for the private room reserved for Mr. Williams,” I said softly.He nodded and checked his tablet.I didn’t dare look toward my uncle again.If he turned and saw me…“After going upstairs, take the first left,” the waiter said.“Thank you,” I nodded, then quickly stepped away, keeping my head down.My steps were quiet, careful.I walked past the tables, trying not to draw attention. My heart was beating fast

Narrator Roland looked at Sofia. He really found the entire situation very awkward. He opened his mouth to explain, but Sofia's mother beat him to it. “I thought you were a good kid when I met you a few years ago,” she said with a kind smile. She was a woman herself and could tell that her daughter liked this former classmate of hers. She also noticed that Roland did not seem to like her daughter. At that time, they were all young, so she did not comment. Now, seeing the two of them together, she was happy for her daughter. “Yes, with someone like you, we can be sure our daughter is in good hands,” her father joined in. They did not give Roland a chance to speak. More people looked towards them. Soon, people began to speculate that Roland was Sofia's boyfriend. “So, Sofia already has a boyfriend? What was the need for all those introductions?” one woman said. She had thought that their families were a good match. Although arranged marriage was no longer a common thing, wealthy

Emily’s POVI stayed at Ethan's place for two days. Most of the time, he was in the studio doing his writing, so I kept checking the situation on the internet. People had stopped dragging me so much. After all, in the entertainment industry, there was never a lack of gossip. But whenever my name was mentioned, or anything related to me, it always came with backlash.“This… is not going the way I planned.” Ethan had said to give it some time for things to calm down, but two days felt like two years. I really could not take it anymore.The words online echoed in my mind. I looked away from my phone and up at Ethan. He was already watching me… like he could see every thought in my head.“You’re rushing,” he said calmly.I frowned. I hated how calm he was. Even his name had been dragged into this mess, yet somehow, more people were beginning to think that I had tricked him, just like I had tricked the rest of the world.“How can I calm down? Everything is already falling apart. At this ra

Narrator’s POV Ethan did not stay idle. After the call with Mr. Sam, he contacted several popular accounts—people known for controlling trends and starting discussions. Soon, new posts began to appear. “Maybe we were too harsh on her. Although stealing is wrong, none of us can understand what she has been through.” “Mental health is serious. We should not ignore it. @Emily, please go get the help you need. You deserve a second chance.” “She admitted her mistake. That takes courage. Who has never made a mistake?” These posts spread quickly. At first, people disagreed with them, but gradually, more and more people were won over. Many followed the trend. Under Emily’s video, new comments appeared: “She needs help, not hate.” “Everyone deserves a second chance.” “Depression can make people do things they normally wouldn’t.” “Stay strong, Emily.” “Please take care of yourself.” More and more people began asking her to seek help. “Go to therapy.” “Take a break and recover.”

Gina's POV "Then, Mr. Cole, since you are asking for a second chance for her, are you willing to sign as a guarantor for her? If she causes the company any loss in the future, you would be responsible?" I asked. I wanted to know how far he was willing to go to protect Emily. "Yes," Ethan answered without hesitation. He was looking me dead in the eyes. I felt like I was suddenly stabbed by a knife. This should not hurt. I should have expected the answer. He had asked me out and pretended to be a loving boyfriend for years just to get Emily's attention. He earned my trust just to help steal my lyrics for her. Why do I still expect him to hold back? He even offered his best script yet for her future. How did I not notice for years that this man did not love me? My palm grew cold. I hated myself for not paying attention to the signs. "Sir, I think this is a good offer," I said. Now it was not just about Emily; I wanted to destroy Ethan too. If he did not become a guarantor, I might f
