After ending the call, William's face was etched with disappointment. He hadn't expected Jessica to react so

harshly. Turning to Jennie, he sighed deeply before speaking. "I'm sorry. I'm apologizing on behalf of Jessica.

She... She's just lost it. I'll definitely have a serious ta "It's okay. | know she loves you. Love can make a person

act crazy, I... understand." Jennie's response was calm, but internally, she felt a surge of excitement. Hearing

William mention divorce seemed like a stroke of unexpected luck, shifting him closer to her side. Her gaze

lingered on William, but noticing her stare, he looked away, discomfort clear in his eyes.

Jennie maintained a facade of vulnerability, appearing as the picture of wronged innocence. William saw it, his

heart softening unintentionally, and in a moment of impulse, he grabbed Jennie's wrist.

Jennie's initial shock was about to turn into verbal surprise when William preempted her. "Lettake you to

clear things up!" he declared, pulling her along.

Jennie's face fell, her mind racing with panic. How could | dare to clarify things now? She wanted to dissuade

William, but it was too late.

Seeing Jennie's distraught appearance, William's heart ached with a mix of pity and resolve. He felt compelled to

stand by her side, determined to seek justice for them both.

Their managers, meanwhile, were distracted, busy deleting posts and failing to prevent William's impulsive

march for justice.

The makeup room doors burst open, and the once noisy room fell into stunned silence. No one had expected

William and Jennie to return so suddenly.

They had mentally prepared themselves not to join the William's group for the upcoming shoot, given the

embarrassing public exposure of their private affairs.

Oh no, their return just made everyone incredibly awkward... | can't bring myself to meet their eyes!

D*mn, he actually cback. Shouldn't he be too ashamed to show his face, finish his work alone, and then

sneak away?

Isabella and others, including Christopher and Hayden, were equally surprised to see the duo at the door.

It's almost as if they're using the tactic if I'm not embarrassed, the embarrassment falls on others. Indeed, those

who can survive in the entertainment industry are not known for their thin skins.

Isabella was inwardly complaining when she saw William, his face pale, striding toward her with Jennie in tow.

Judging by his expression, he was enduring a great deal. However, William, still smarting from the

embarrassment he had just suffered, redirected his anger towa Chapter 67 Make A Fool Out Of Himself

"Ms. Isabella, it was one thing when you snatched Jennie's dress before, but now you're spreading baseless

rumors about my relationship with my junior. Isn't that crossing the line?" After William finished speaking, his

gaze swept over Hayden and Christopher, carrying a s Jennie's face turned pale, her heart pounding with anxiety.

Suddenly, realization dawned on her. She remembered that the store would never provide surveillance footage;

doing so would violate the privacy of their customers and harm the brand's reputation. So, the events of that day

were unverifiable, relying solely on their accounts. With William's trust in her, what else did she have to worry

about?

Jennie resolved to carry her deception to the bitter end, putting on an act of humiliation as she faced Isabella.

At this moment, everyone's attention was recaptured. Is there more to this story than initially thought? Was the

earlier joke not just a fluke but something truly explosive?

sabella was taken aback. She had originally found their actions distasteful and planned only to scare them a bit,

hoping they would retreat in guilt. She never expected a direct confrontation.

expected, for these scumbags, everything their wives say is false, and everything the mistress says is gospel.

Just because Jessica found out about my identity Christopher furrowed his brows, ready to defend Isabella, but

Hayden stopped him, attempting to defuse the situation with a diplomatic response. "Mr. Sawyer, it's all a

misunderstanding. Isabella was talking about someone else. How did you two manage to take it persona

William's manager joined the fray, though the wise move would have been to manage the situation with

calmness. Yet, William had already charged ahead with his impulsive accusations. He felt cornered now, forced to

defend his honor or risk tarnishing his reputation as th now.

"Everyone knows who Ms. Jeais referring to. We're not ones to stir up trouble, but we're not afraid of it

either. We'll all be working together on future projects, so it's best to clear up any misunderstandings now," he

argued. "We believe Ms. Jeamay have been take Good grief, this manager and William together couldn't

even muster a single functioning brain. They actually believed Jennie's flimsy story.

The confrontation escalated as the two managers faced off, the air thick with tension. Meanwhile, other staff

members scurried about, looking for the director and producer to intervene.

Excitement buzzed among the onlookers from each group, snearly ready to cheer on a confrontation..

their own interests and reputations.

"This might be asking too much, | believe Ms. Jeaprobably didn't do anything wrong," Hayden added, his

expression turning grave. Despite his initial frustration over the trouble Isabella had stirred up, he remained

convinced of her honesty. He was determined not to le "Are you trying to cover up for her?" William accused, his

anger palpable and voice tinged with

accusation.

Just as Christopher and Hayden prepared to respond, Isabella cut in, her voice laced with feigned confusion.

"Wait, | didn't quite catch that," she said, putting on an innocent expression. "Mr. Sawyer, did you just accuse me

of spreading rumors?" "Didn't you?" William shot back, his gaze icy and challenging.

Isabella looked genuinely puzzled as she responded. "So you're not married: Still single?"

William, caught off guard by her direct question, didn't know how to reply.

Isabella's lips curved into a knowing smirk. "Or are you saying you didn't cancel your wife's card because of Ms.

Woods, nor did you give her your VIP supplementary card to use?"

At this, William's pupils shrank, a clear sign of his discomfort.

"Are you saying it wasn't intentional that you didn't pick up your wife's calls? She couldn't even reach you

through your assistant, yet you responded to Ms. Woods' messages instantly?"

As William's face turned a deeper shade of red, Isabella pressed on, "Could it be that your wife and Ms. Woods

never actually met that day?"

Remembering the slap, the accusation, William found it suddenly hard to breathe..

In a tone filled with earnest inquiry, Isabella continued, "Mr. Sawyer, where exactly did | spread false rumors?"

Rather than demanding that | prove my innocence, perhaps it's tyour true colors as a hypocrite were

revealed!

Christopher, observing the unfolding , felt a wave of relief. Indeed, Isabella was not one to be easily

bullied; it was she who often turned the tables on others.

The initial skepticism from the audience slowly shifted as they waited for William to respond. But as the silence

stretched, it becevident that he had no comeback. Even Connor seemed shocked by the turn of events.

Doesn't this silence confirm that the issues we've been discussing were indeed true? And here | thought there

would be skind of twist!

Full of bluster and a misplaced sense of righteousness, William's confidence baffled everyone.

How could he be so confident? He must be a fool, isn't he?
