The news of Nancy’s television interview spread like wildfire in Hulbury, causing a massive uproar within. half an hour.
The reporter asked, “It seems like you’ve known Mr. Smith for a long time. Why didn’t you end up together? 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 that moment, 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 live broadcast.
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 there be 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, they vandalized 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 saw Nancy sitting inside.
The soundproof glass door opened, and Nancy looked at the person before her. She calmly stood up and said, “Long time no
see. Mr. Sherwood. Why are you alone? I thought Jasper would come to see me 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 asked me to deliver. A Swire
person adapts to the circumstances. If you continue to cause trouble like this, it will only make you look worse.”
Nancy didn’t take his words seriously. She glanced down at her fingernails and said, “So what? As long as 1 achieve my goal, it’s
fine. Since he didn’t come in person this time, please relay a message to him for me. Our mutter won’t end so easily. He can
forget about getting engaged to another woman... He can 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 Smith Corporation. The company has
reported this to the police. According to the law, spreading false rumors is 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 will have 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 now or 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 to throw 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. Nancy Mulligan in today’s live
broadcast, we have found them to be false. We urge everyone to remain rational. If anyone continues to spread rumors about
Smith Corporation based on this, legal action will be taken and the responsible party will be held accountable for any damages
caused to the company. We have already issued a legal notice regarding the defamation of the CEO of Smith Corporation, and
we will pursue this matter with Ms. Nancy Mulligan until the end. Furthermore, the engagement between 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 from the 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 never expected 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 have Epean 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 the truth”
Coms
“Is it because of this Jasper asked, giving a slight sinile. The light in his eyes was inscrutabile, leaving one 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 to affect 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 past with Nancy, but how could
he act as if nothing ever happened His behavior makes him seem so unfamiliar to
me
Jasper lightly brushed her nose with his finger and replied, “What else could it be..” He took a deep breath and said. “Stop
overthinking, okay? Do you want to go home? Let’s go home, okay? I’ve recently 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 a completely different person.
