The news of Nancy’s television interview spread like wildfire in Hulbury, causing a massive uproarwithin. half an hour.

The reporter asked, “It seems like you’ve known Mr. Smith for a long time. Why didn’t you end uptogether? Was there a specific reason?”

Nancy replied, “There is indeed a reason…”

On television, Nancy appeared worn out, a stark contrast to her previous glamorous image. In thatmoment, she seemed vulnerable and abandoned

The Public Relations Department immediately reported the situation to Jasper

The audience, eager to hear Nancy’s explanation, was abruptly interrupted by a break in the livebroadcast.

The television screen turned into static, leaving no image.

“What a disappointment! What could be the reason for this?”

“Who knows! If what this woman says is true, and the CEO of Smith Corporation likes her so much,why is he engaged to the daughter of the Swan family? It doesn’t make sense!”

“Ah, this woman is truly pitiful. After being together for so long, she’s still been abandoned. Could therebe someone else involved? How could a seemingly perfect couple break up like that?”

At Hulbury News, a group of black-suited bodyguards entered the office. Without saying a word, theyvandalized the entire place, even cutting off the electrical signals.

The terrified staff huddled in a comer, too afraid to move.

The bodyguards cleared a path for Fabian to enter the interview room. Through the glass, he sawNancy sitting inside.

The soundproof glass door opened, and Nancy looked at the person before her. She calmly stood upand said, “Long time no see. Mr. Sherwood. Why are you alone? I thought Jasper would come to seeme himself.”

Fabian composed his expression, glancing at the reporter beside him. “Leave.”

The reporter didn’t dare to linger and quickly ran out

Fabian looked at Nancy with dissatisfaction. I thought you understood the message Mr. Smith askedme to deliver. A Swire person adapts to the circumstances. If you continue to cause trouble like this, itwill only make you look worse.”

Nancy didn’t take his words seriously. She glanced down at her fingernails and said, “So what? As longas 1 achieve my goal, it’s fine. Since he didn’t come in person this time, please relay a message to himfor me. Our mutter won’t end so easily. He can forget about getting engaged to another woman… Hecan forget about it in this lifetime”

Naked up ber mexpensive lag, ready to leave, but Fabian blocked her path. “Ms. Mulligan, votr

public spreading of rumors about your relationship with Mr. Smith has negatively impacted SmithCorporation. The company has reported this to the police. According to the law, spreading false rumorsis a crime that can lead to a sentence of three years or more.”

Nancy looked at Fabian in disbelief. “Spreading rumors?”

“Yes, that’s correct. Fabian spoke expressionlessly. “Mr. Smith gave you a chance. If you had behaved,there wouldn’t have been any issues. But now, what you’ve done has crossed Mr. Smith’s boundaries.The police will arrive in ten minutes. Before Mr. Smith’s engagement to Ms. Eileen, I’m afraid you willhave to spend some time in jail.”

Nancy burst into wild laughter. “Halal. What a fantastic he! When Jasper was begging me not to leave,it wasn’t like this at all. I won’t believe a single word you’re saying. Either let him come to see ine nowor get lost and release me

Today is different from any other day. It’s time for you to wake up.”

Just then a group of uniformed police officers arrived.

Nancy didn’t expect the police to actually show up. I can’t believe it. Jasper actually sent someone tothrow me into prison!

Nancy was taken away, screaming and lashing out at the police like a madwoman.

In the end, she couldn’t escape her fate. Handcuffed, she was escorted directly to the police station.

Within an hour. Fabian returned to Jasper to report.

Smith Corporation issued a public statement. After investigating the comments made by Ms. NancyMulligan in today’s live broadcast, we have found them to be false. We urge everyone to remainrational.

Furthermore, the engagementbetween the CEO of Smith Corporation, Jasper Smuth, and the heiress of Caerulus Corporation.Eileen, has been scheduled for June 12th. The event will take place at Primas Hotel

As soon as the statement was released, the initial turmoil subsided, followed by a collective sigh fromthe crowd

Some people knew whether the statement was true or not.

Eileen spent the entire day in the school’s art studio and was the last to hear the news. She neverexpected so many things to happen on that day.

Inside the car, Jasper asked her. “What would you like to eat tonight Shall we go to Blissorzo or haveEpean cuisine!”

Let’s go home and cat. I have to review again tonight, Eileen answered.

Jasper noticed that Eileen seemed downcast. He gently pulled her towards him. inviting her to sit on his

He tenderly brushed her hair, tilted his head, and flashed a subtle smile. “What’s wrong? Aren’t you

Eileen looked out of the car window, avoiding his gaze. “I saw that statement. Why won’t you tell thetruth”

Coms

“Is it because of this Jasper asked, giving a slight sinile. The light in his eyes was inscrutabile, leavingone to wonder what he was thinking. He continued. “It’s just to avoid unnecessary trouble. After all,those things are in the past, and it’s meaningless to bring them up again Besides, I don’t want this toaffect your mood. The exams are coming up, aren’t they? You have two months left to prepare well.Whether you pass of not. I respect your choice.

“Is it only because of this?” Eileen asked. With just a single sentence, he could casually erase his pastwith Nancy, but how could he act as if nothing ever happened His behavior makes him seem sounfamiliar to

me

Jasper lightly brushed her nose with his finger and replied, “What else could it be..” He took a deepbreath and said. “Stop overthinking, okay? Do you want to go home? Let’s go home, okay? I’verecently learned a few new dishes. I’ll cook them for you to try. How about that?”

Eileen let go of her inner unease and curiously asked, “When did you learn to cook?”

“It’s something I learned a long time ago. Is there any dish you’re craving?”

“I’m fine with anything I’ll help you out in a bit.

Jasper smiled and nodded. All right.

Upon returning to the mansion, the two started preparing dinner,

Jasper put on a cute lace-trimmed apron, a stark contrast to his usual image, as if he were acompletely different person.
