A phone rang inside the quiet car.Lucas answered, his voice cold and clipped.“Speak.”The man on the other end spoke respectfully. “Mr. Landon, Ms. Chandler has hired someone to look into your background.”Lucas didn’t seem concerned.“Stick to the original plan. Keep track of everything she does and report back to me.”“Yes, sir.”After a brief pause, the man added, “There’s one more thing. Ms. Jensen sent several media outlets and celebrity gossip accounts videos and photos of Daryl Fisher cheating. She wants the story exposed, but most of them are too afraid of the Fisher family to publish anything.”Lucas raised an eyebrow.“Footage of Daryl Fisher cheating?”“I’ve sent the footage to your phone.”Lucas opened the message and found a video along with several photos.They all showed Daryl and Zara locked in a kiss.Interesting.Lucas brought the phone back to his ear.“Give Ms. Jensen exactly what she wants. By tomorrow morning, I want Daryl Fisher’s affair plastere

Early the next morning, news of Daryl’s affair with his so-called female platonic best friend exploded online.Jennie was still fast asleep when her phone started ringing.Without even opening her eyes, she fumbled for it and held it to her ear.“Hello?”Chloe’s excited shriek blasted through the phone.“Jennie, check your phone! Those two cheating scumbags are finally getting what they deserve! I thought no one would dare touch the story, but apparently someone out there is willing to risk it for the money!”Jennie’s brain was still half asleep.“What are you talking about?”“You asked me to leak the video and photos of Daryl and Zara making out last night, remember? Every media outlet I contacted refused to take the story. I thought the whole thing was dead. But someone posted it anyway!”Jennie instantly snapped awake.She opened the trending page and found the story about Daryl and Zara at number one.#City’s Richest Man Daryl Fisher Cheats With Female Best FriendThe n

Zara’s face went pale.She glanced at Daryl in alarm, then hurried to defend herself.“Jennie, Chloe was the one who signed that consent form. What does any of this have to do with me? If you’re trying to turn Daryl against me, you’ll need a better excuse than that.”Jennie looked at her coldly.“You poured oil at the top of the stairs. I slipped, fell, and lost my baby. I was unconscious and bleeding so badly that Chloe had to authorize an emergency procedure to save my life.”For a split second, excitement flashed in Zara’s eyes.She quickly concealed it and put on an injured expression.“Daryl, this is too much. If Jennie hates me so badly that she’ll blame me for her miscarriage, maybe we should just stop being friends. Today she’s blaming me for the baby. Next time she gets sick, will that be my fault too?”She turned as though she intended to leave.Daryl caught her wrist.“Don’t go. This has nothing to do with you.”Then he added with complete certainty, “The baby is

Jennie closed her eyes and drew a deep breath.Forcing a faint smile, she turned toward the cameras.“My husband was simply the closest person to her at the time.”“Just because he was closest doesn’t mean they had to…”The reporters had no intention of letting them brush the scandal aside with such a flimsy explanation.Before the reporter could finish, Daryl cut him off impatiently.“We’ve already explained what happened. I did not cheat on my wife. We have a strong, loving marriage. Zara and I are nothing more than close friends, and there has never been anything romantic between us. I ask that everyone look at the situation fairly and rationally instead of spreading unverified rumors.”Jennie calmly added, “My husband is right. You can see for yourselves.”She pointed toward the large screen behind them.The screen lit up.Zara, Hayden, Gavin, and Daryl appeared in the footage.In the first video, Zara and Hayden were challenging each other to a drinking contest.They d

Jennie looked down at Chloe’s phone.Sure enough, Zara was already trending.#The Ultimate “One of the Guys” Girl: Zara Winston#Hiding an Affair Behind “Friendship”#Zara Winston Caught Kissing Her “Bro”Hayden and Gavin had been dragged into the scandal as well.#What the Heir to Shaw Corporation Is Really Like#Gavin Cole Let His “Bro” Touch Him Where?The backlash against Hayden and Gavin was so severe that the stock prices of both family companies had taken a noticeable hit.Clips from the press conference were already everywhere online.The three videos of Zara kissing Hayden’s throat, rubbing Gavin’s crotch, and biting Daryl’s lip had gone especially viral. Nearly every trending topic led back to one of them.The comments were brutal.“If my husband had a female best friend like that, I’d either destroy them both or file for divorce immediately.”“What kind of bros act like this? Real male friends don’t bite each other’s lips, kiss each other’s throats, or grab each
