Chapter 960 – My Accidental Bride Is a Fashion Circle Queen Novel

Filed To Story: My Accidental Bride Is a Fashion Circle Queen Novel

By the time the awards ceremony was completed, it was already 9pm. Following on, there was still a banquet.

Guests gradually left the scene, but Emma remained seated; she had no shoes…

At this time, Eric reappeared at the entrance holding a box in his hands. He then kneeled down in front of her and pulled out her original pair of shoes; they were now fixed.

“Mr. Roborts’s so rich. Why didn’t he just buy a new pair of shoes?”

“Are you crazy? A new pair would cause blisters. The original pair is definitely more comfortable. Who would have known that Mr. Roborts would be so thoughtful,” a few artists commented as they passed by in admiration.

“Stand up and walk around a little.”

Emma held onto Eric’s warm hands and stood up. She then smiled, “It’s fine.”

“Let’s go, then…” Eric hooked Emma’s arm around his, “I’ll accompany you at the banquet.”

He was, after all, the male lead in Emma’s film, so attending the banquet was not an issue. Not to mention the fact that he was her husband. As for the incident that just happened, it could have originally been an embarrassing topic for Emma, but because of Eric’s rescue, it turned into a story of a hero saving his damsel in distress.

The husband that appeared out of nowhere was as thoughtful as ever.

“Why is Emma always so lucky?”

“Mr. Roborts is so handsome! Daddy Eric is such a doting husband – he’s practically perfect!”

…

Of course, at the banquet, everyone continued to look at Eric like they were watching a show. Why?

Because they weren’t sure if he had heard about Emma’s affair with Zephaniah.

What a pitiful man.

However, no one dared to approach Eric to tell him. After all, they still wanted to survive in the industry…

But, when Emma saw the secretive looks on these people’s faces, she simply smiled. The fact that Eric was here, meant that he already knew what was happening. And the person that revealed it to him, was Lisa.

“Don’t blame me for being nosy. I simply felt that Boss needed to be here to supp**ss the rumors. After all, your words cannot compare to his display of trust.”

Soon, Luke arrived after doing what Eric asked of him. He then leaned into Eric’s ear and whispered, “President, I’ve already checked the surveillance cameras and found the person that started the rumors as well as the security guard he spoke to.”

“The evidence?”

“I have it here with me!” Luke said as he looked at the storage device in his hand.

“Hold onto it well and wait for my instructions.”

Emma didn’t know what the two men were discussing. But, she did suspect that the rumors weren’t simple. After all, suggestive words like ‘children’ and ‘stability’ weren’t words that a normal person would extract and jump to conclusions with.

“Mr. Roborts…”

“Hello, Mr. Roborts…”

Because of Eric’s presence at the banquet, everyone had to temporarily stop their gossiping. Moreover, the people that Eric and Emma talked to, weren’t people that small-time celebrities could compare to. So, the banquet became very boring.

Originally, Emma thought the entire incident had come to an end. But, Eric suddenly led her towards Han Jie.

“President Han…”

“Oh God, Mr. Roborts,” Han Jie was, of course, shocked by Eric’s approach.

“I would like to ask where your brother is. Doesn’t he still owe my wife an apology?” Eric asked Han Jie. As soon as Eric said these words, everyone was stunned. But, no one was as shocked as Han Jie.

“Just because I haven’t said anything, doesn’t mean I’ve forgotten about it. Your brother was the one that made the promise…why hasn’t he upheld it?”

Han Jie looked around awkwardly, not sure how to respond…

“Mr. Roborts…it’s not necessary to talk about this in the open, don’t you think?”

Eric gave a slight smile and said in an intimidating voice, “President Han sure knows how to have a double standard.”

“While I was in the middle of a meeting today, my wife’s assistant called. My wife was simply attending a film festival today, but a rumor somehow started about her having an indecent relationship with Zephaniah. I’m sure that’s what everyone is discussing in secret, right?”

“Those that suspect this must have no brains. Did you think that you’re smarter than I am? That you discovered my wife’s supposed affair, while I’m oblivious to it? If that’s the case, then why am I the CEO of Kaleidoscope and not you?”

“Are you guys just picking on my wife because she’s fun to pick on?”

“Mr. Roborts, even if there are rumors about your wife, what does that have to do with me?” Han Jie asked as he held back his anger.

“Others may not have anything to do with it, but you are in no way innocent,” Eric said as he gestured to Luke.

Afterwards, Luke stepped forward with the security guard that started spreading the rumors.

“I’m innocent…I didn’t see anything with my own eyes, I was simply being nosy. I didn’t expect the rumors to get so out of hand,” the security guard explained as he waved his hands innocently. “The person that told me about this was a young man with a hat. He said he personally saw it.”

“What young man?” Eric asked.

“A young man wearing a white hat with a big ‘G’ stitched to the front of it.”

As soon as Han Jie heard this, his face turned pale…This was the hat that Han Xiuche was wearing when he left the house earlier that day.

That idiot!

“Is this him?” Eric instructed for Luke to show the still they printed from the security cameras to the security guard. The security guard r*bbed his eyes and immediately confirmed, “Yes, that’s right…that’s him.”

Luke held onto the photo and showed it to the observers around him. Afterwards, Eric returned his gaze to Han Jie.

“President Han, is there something you want to say?”

“This…” Han Jie r*bbed his forehead, unsure how to respond.

When Eric saw this, he gestured for Luke to present their final piece of evidence and to explain it to the public, “This person came out of your car. He was the driver that drove you here. But, if everyone looks carefully at this person’s clothing and vibe, he’s definitely not a driver.”

“Who else could it be? He must be your brother, Han Xiuche! If you guys don’t believe me, feel free to go online and look for photos of Han Xiuche wearing a hat. This particular hat has made a lot of appearances.”

“Previously, due to Superstar Media, my Madam and Han Xiuche already had a grudge against each other. Because of that, Han Xiuche continuously schemed against my Madam without feeling any remorse.”

“He hasn’t even kneeled and apologized like he promised, yet his back at it again, framing my Madam for having an affair.”

“So, President Han, shouldn’t you claim responsibility for this?”

Just like that, Han Jie was thrown into the firing line by Luke as he exposed everything in front of everyone. It turned out, there was such a huge conspiracy.

“President…you obviously knew about the relationship bet**en my Madam and Han Xiuche, yet you still brought him to the Film Festival. Is it because you have other plans? Based on this point, I hope you can explain yourself to the President and the Madam.”

“Mr. Roborts…I’m sure there must be a misunderstanding…Trust me…”

“Is that all you can say?” In reality, Eric did not have high hopes that Han Jie would be able to do anything. If he was brave enough to shoulder the blame for his brother, then they would not be currently pointing their fi**gers at Han Xiuche.

“I…”

“What did you and Zephaniah talk about in the afternoon that made everyone so excited?” Obviously, Eric’s tone took a 360 degree turn when he spoke to Emma. He was a lot more gentle and soft and his words contained no sense of doubt. His purpose was for her to reveal everything openly.

“Zephaniah told me that he plans to get engaged to Yadanar. He said his not young anymore and that it’s time he has a child. So, I agreed that he should settle down and get some stability in his life. That’s what we talked about.”

As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately understood what was going on. At this time, Zephaniah rolled his eyes and said, “Now that you’ve exposed me, how am I supposed to propose to her?”

Emma shrugged, “I thought proving our innocence was more important.”

Eric was truly angered by the actions of the Han brothers, especially Han Xiuche.

“You shouldn’t live your life like a street rat. Why can’t you do things in the open?”

“President Han, I’m waiting for the day that Han Xiuche kneels and apologizes!”

After being humiliated in front of everyone, was it possible for Han Jie to remain at the Film Festival? Of course, not.

While he sighed at Eric’s ruthlessness, his head also ached because of his brother.

At a time like this, why did Han Xiuche use such methods to frame Emma. It was bad enough that he framed her, why did he have to use cheap methods that made him appear so inhumane and unjust.

“That’s enough!”

Eric revealed the truth in front of everyone and provided corresponding evidence. This destroyed the misunderstanding that everyone had towards Emma, but deepened the hatred that they had towards the Han brothers. Did Emma actually appear like someone that they could bully?

Following on, the rest of the banquet ran smoothly.

Eric insisted on accompanying Emma for the rest of the night because he wanted to clarify everything as early as possible. Once the timing was gone, the effect would be very different…

As a result, the media revealed that a lot of interesting things happened at the film festival. Amongst these, the most interesting was how someone was caught spreading rumors.

Emma and Zephaniah’s conversation had been leaked, but Han Xiuche craftily took the words ‘child’ and ‘stability’ and started spreading it to another person, allowing the gossip to spread on its own. With this, he successfully slandered Emma and achieved his motive.
