"If we hadn't divorced, we wouldn't be sitting here." Sophie's unguarded response warmed up the atmosphere instantly.

The live chat went wild.

[OMG, talk about being straightforward! Would they even be here if they hadn't divorced?]

[Feels like we could get a lot of tea from her. She's so open!]

[Suddenly feeling like Heather's a bit sly, no offense.]

Sophie's candor instantly won her a legion of fans.

Heather was curious and asked, "Why? Is it because of the photo..."

The half-hidden question successfully turned the camera towards Heather.

The live chat was in uproar.

[This girl really asks anything! She might as well mention the modern Casanova!]

[Wow, she really asked that! I wouldn't have the guts!]

[Answer her! We all wanna know the gossip!]

The director gasped as millions of viewers flooded the live stream.

How curious can people be?

"That's my boyfriend." Sophie's statement caused an uproar.

[Boyfriend! Note it down, boyfriend, not a playboy!]

[Feels like there's some major gossip here. Today's tea is so juicy.]

[Did no one notice Mr. Burke's expression? It's like a storm's brewing.]

Sophie's straightforward answer made Heather too embarrassed to ask further.

"So, you mean, you've already divorced?" Ailsa asked this time. Her gaze shifted back and forth between James and Sophie.

Sophie replied, "We've been divorced for a while. We just couldn't make it public. This accidental leak is somewhat a relief for both me and James, right, Mr. Burke?" Sophie looked at James, who responded indifferently, "Yeah."

[Damn, they were already divorced!]

[There's nothing wrong with keeping a divorce secret for business reasons, right? They're not celebrities, so there's no deception here.]

[Highlight of this is that it was accidentally leaked! Something fishy here.]

[Sob, really wanna know who Sophie's boyfriend is. That silhouette is to die for!]

As the public opinion turned favorable, the director sighed in relief.

"I still wanna know..."

Heather was about to continue, but Kayden beside her said, "Stop asking. You've asked a lot, you know? When will you stop being such a gossip?"

Kayden and Heather looked just like a couple still in love, and Heather pouted and fell silent.

Meanwhile, James was quietly peeling an apple.

[Feels like James really loves Sophie. He's silently peeling an apple for her since he can't join the conversation.]

[Talk about deep love! Peeling an apple for his ex-wife, silently watching her talk, my God, it's so touching!]

Just as the chat mourned James' return to being a good man, James put the peeled apple into his own mouth.

Chat:

[Uh... scratch that.]

[Mr. Burke's just thirsty and wants an apple. It's understandable.]

[I really thought he was peeling it for Sophie. No wonder they divorced...]

James silently looked down at his phone, having already seen the messages in the chat. The apple was initially meant for Sophie, but he didn't want it to tarnish her image, and ended up eating it himself.
