However, Hanson did not want to waste such a good opportunity to show off. So, he took the cutleries from Vania's hands and gently offered, "Darling, you don't have to move. Let me feed you."

To that, she quickly refused him. "I'm not a child. I can eat on my own."

Moreover, two guests were sitting before them, so no matter what, they could not publicly display their affection as if they were alone.

Yet, Hanson did not even give her a chance to refuse. "I'm just returning the favor. You've always fed me, haven't you, darling?"

At this point, it was as if he did not mind disclosing the details of their private lives to Thomas anymore.

Following that, he scooped a mouthful of dessert and placed it near Vania's mouth. "Darling, this is your favorite."

His intent gaze seemed like it was saying, 'It's up to you whether you eat it or not.'

Naturally, she would not embarrass her husband before other people. Can't blame anyone that I've got such a haughty man for a husband. What else can I do besides pampering him?

Silently devouring the dessert, she deliberately made her voice gentle as she thanked him. "Darling, you can have it. If you're so focused on me, you won't be able to eat well. I'll be sad if that happens."

She expressed her affection intentionally because she wanted to satisfy his desire. The reason was simple; she knew from his behavior that if she did not comply with him, he would not stop.

Just as she had expected, Hanson nodded in satisfaction after hearing her words. "Sure, I'll listen to whatever you say, darling."

After saying that, he acted as if he had just noticed Thomas and Liam when he urged, "Hey, you two. Don't just sit and watch. Eat."

Thomas and Liam looked at each other before quietly taking a bite of their food. Would they have watched him if it had not been for Hanson's act? Fortunately, the atmosphere in the room improved after the meal.

Liam hesitated momentarily before speaking up, "Vanie, have you seen the news on the web?" He made it sound casual.

Nodding, she replied, "Of course. It's trending all over the Internet. How could I have missed it?"

"If that's the case, what are your thoughts on it?" Liam probed carefully, wanting to know how she felt about this issue.

Meanwhile, Thomas was all ears too.

An unperturbed Vania responded, "It's just some fake rumors. Why bother about it?"

"You're right." Liam nodded in agreement but questioned further, "But both of you are from the same company after all, and such negative news will affect your company. So, why don't you investigate who's behind it?"

Just as she had expected, Hanson nodded in satisfaction after hearing her words. "Sure, I'll listen to whatever you say, darling."

At that moment, Vania suddenly looked at Thomas and raised a vague question. "Even if I did, it won't necessarily be the true mastermind. Don't you agree?"

Thomas felt nervous from her gaze, but he did not know whether his guilt stemmed from his feelings toward her, or that there was a double-entendre in her words, which prompted him to worry for Yvonne.

Hence, he could only nod in agreement when faced with her question. "You're right. So, are you still looking for the real mastermind?"

He believed that since she could ask him that question so directly, it meant that she already had a plan.

After thinking about it, Vania replied, "They're the mastermind after all, so how could they be exposed so easily?" There were hints of sarcasm in her tone. "But I guess I was lucky, considering the people I sent have all witnessed the entire process of their dealing, including the mastermind themselves."

Thomas felt his entire body immediately stiffen while a voice kept repeating in his head. It's Yvonne. It must be her.

On the other hand, Vania was not the slightest bit surprised to see the dumbfounded expression on his face.
