Late at night, inside the hotel bathroom.
Eric held onto Emma as they lay inside the bathtub; planting k**ses on her back affectionately.
As Emma had rolled on the floor quite a few times during the birth scene today, her back was left with slight scratches. As he looked at her injuries, Eric’s eyes darkened, “You got injured.”
“Where?” Emma did not feel any pain. “It must be a small scratch.”
Eric rested his chin on her shoulder and said in a deep voice, “From now on, don’t allow yourself to get even small scratches.”
“But, I’m jealous of the women who cause trouble, get into fights and have their husbands jump in to help them…”
“This is the first time I’ve realized that Mrs. Roberts has a violent side to her,” Eric tightened his grip around Emma. “Fine, if I get the chance in the future, I will try getting into a fight for you.”
“What are you planning to do about the incident with Miss Cromwell?” Emma leaned back against Eric , enjoying the curves of his perfect body. Although her cheeks were a little red, she wasn’t looking at him directly, so she hadn’t completely been mesmerized by him.
“Do I need to personally deal with a matter like this?”
Hearing Eric’s question, Emma couldn’t help but laugh, “Anyhow, Luke has already made a phone call…”
“… but she hasn’t realized where she stands.” Eric’s eyes darkened a few shades, “She could have simply continued living her life as a rich heiress, yet she decided to challenge people in the entertainment industry…doesn’t she know the industry is filled with actors?”
“If someone tries to hurt you…or tries to ruin our relationship…I definitely won’t let them off.”
As she listened to Eric’s oath-like words, Emma’s eyes fell into a daze…
…
The next day, plenty of people made phone calls to Kaleidoscope asking for the truth behind the Ivana incident.
A lot of these people thought Emma was a mistress who stepped in and broke up someone else’s relationship…
However, Kaleidoscope couldn’t be bothered to respond to such nonsense.
Of course, because Luke had taken Lisa to meet his parents and wasn’t around, Fletcher was left with the responsibility of giving replies. Fletcher couldn’t help but sigh; what difference was there bet**en before he was promoted and after he was promoted?
It was rare for Jordyn to be home. So, he simply wanted to sit down to a dinner with his wife, but he ended up being surrounded by reporters.
In the end, Fletcher was so annoyed, he simply replied, “Could Miss Cromwell please control your actions and respect your own identity.”
“Could Vice President please tell us if Miss Cromwell was Mr. Roberts’s ex?”
“They aren’t familiar with each other,” Fletcher replied straightforwardly.
“If they aren’t familiar, then why did they have a marriage appointment? If Miss Cromwell wasn’t upset, she wouldn’t have stepped out to reveal this matter…”
Faced with the media’s aggressiveness, Fletcher neatened his suit and told Jordyn to enter the restaurant first.
“That is an assumption made by the media.”
“Could you tell us the truth?” the reporters chased.
“I want to leave Miss Cromwell with a bit of pride. By the way, is it because our Mr. Roberts has been quite merciful lately that you guys feel like you can make up stories as you please?” Fletcher smirked. He then left to have dinner with his dear wife.
“What exactly is this Ivana thinking?” Jordyn asked as she sat opposite Fletcher. She completely couldn’t understand what was going on. “Why would a socialite heiress drag herself down like this?”
“As an heiress, not only did she not attract the attention of Mr. Roberts, she even lost to Emma. In her eyes, models and actors are all dirty and hold no importance. Did you think she’d accept losing to Emma?” Fletcher explained. “The Miller Family were the ones that pulled her into the mix, but she was the one that picked up where they left off and continued on.”
“On the surface, she appears to be telling the truth. But, in reality, she is trying to make Emma sound like a mistress…”
“Both Emma and Eric can’t be bothered dealing with this ridiculousness. That’s why our date was disturbed,” Fletcher was quite annoyed by this.
“In that case, how come you didn’t clarify everything? Why leave her a bit of pride, she doesn’t deserve even a bit!” Jordyn couldn’t help but stick up for her friend.
“When a cat catches a mouse, it doesn’t kill it straight away. That’s exactly the reason why Eric handed the issue to me and not to the PR department.”
Although she had always known that Eric wasn’t someone one should provoke, Jordyn still found herself subconsciously grabbing tighter to Fletcher’s arm, “Thinking about how I previously went up against Mr. Roberts, I feel a little scared. Luckily, nothing happened…”
Fletcher held onto her hand gently and said with a slight smile, “Be smarter from now on, OK?”
…
The next day, Fletcher’s response spread to Ivana’s ears. How dare he tell her to control her actions!
Worst of all, Emma and Eric did not get involved at all, they just sat back and watched the show unfold.
This seriously hurt Ivana’s pride. When had she ever experienced this kind of treatment?
In the end, she couldn’t help but ask Eric in front of the media, “Do you dare to say you never made a phone call to me on August 19th?”
Faced with provocation, Kaleidoscope did not make an immediate response. As for Eric, he simply kept Emma company on set for her last two scenes.
Finally, because Kaleidoscope felt the issue had gotten a little out of hand, they got Fletcher to accept an interview at the front door. But, it wasn’t anything official nor did it seem very serious.
“Could Vice President…”
“You don’t need to ask, I know what you want to ask?” Fletcher couldn’t be bothered listening to the reporters’ r*bbish as he said, “Since Miss Cromwell insists on getting an answer, we have no choice but to reply.”
“On August 19th, Mr. Roberts’s assistant, Luke, did indeed give Miss Cromwell a phone call. The motive was to notify her of their marriage.”
“Huh?” the media were in an uproar as they rapidly snapped photos on their cameras.
Was Eric about to reveal everything?
Fletcher analyzed the exp**ssions of the media and gave a mysterious smile. After their discussions stopped, he finally continued.
“But, this incident was simply a result of the chairman’s impatience for a grandchild. He demanded Mr. Roberts to bring home a granddaughter-in-law that very day…So, Mr. Roberts simply picked a random name from a list and selected Miss Cromwell. He was planning to ask her for a favor after she arrived to help him avoid the persistence of the chairman…but…Miss Cromwell never arrived.”
“So…Emma is not a mistress and Mr. Roberts is not familiar with Miss Cromwell. The media’s ridiculous guesses can now stop.”
“At that time, the chairman used his illness as a threat, so Mr. Roberts had to make an urgent decision. He originally thought Miss Cromwell had not shown up because she didn’t care. Who would have thought she’d remember it until now!”
In other words, Ivana had been overthinking the situation and thought there was actually something romantic going on.
“This is the entire story. We originally thought a small issue like this wouldn’t need explaining. Who would have thought…”
So it turned out Eric had randomly picked Ivana and was merely going to ask her for a favor.
No wonder he couldn’t be bothered to explain anything. It turned out, Ivana meant nothing to him from the start…
He just picked her randomly…
Everyone originally thought they were watching an entertaining love triangle. Who would have thought that Ivana meant absolutely nothing to Eric.
In that case, wasn’t Ivana a joke for taking things so seriously?
