In less than half an hour after the Twitter post went up, its popularity suddenly surged and became the trending search. #LawsonHooperMarriage #HooperGroupHeirProposalThese hashtags topped above the other hashtags, such as #SurvivalIslandBrokenUpIngrid, #NedsTormentedLove, and #NedExwifePhoto. It even had a "hottest" tag behind it. The netizens who hounded Angeline and scolded her because Ned broke up with Ingrid all widened their eyes in shock. They had all thought Ned was going to remarry Angeline. They questioned why she had received a successful proposal from Nathaniel instead.Especially those liveliest, most jubilant of Ned and Ingrid's supporters, who blamed Angeline for their favorite couple breaking up, thinking she got in the way of their relationship, were taken aback. And now, the one they claimed intruded on Ned and Ingrid's relationship was getting engaged. Some of Ingrid's fans refused to accept it, saying that Angeline had initially promised Ned she would r
UpAllNight: "You all are scumbags! You scold Angeline because your favorite couple broke up, insisting on dragging Angeline into your drama. The biggest mistake Angeline had made was marrying Ned. The day they registered their marriage, she fell into a coma. This really shows that Ned is incompatible with Angeline!" World'sRunnerUp: "These Ingrid fans sure are an interesting bunch. Every time something happens to your idol, you blame it on Angeline. Was the stuff Paparazzi Aiden shared not obvious enough? Ingrid intruded on their relationship after Ned lost his memory. She pretended to be Angeline to get closer to him. She's a cunning thief who stole someone else's man. Yet, you lot still dare to be arrogant in front of Angeline. The biggest misfortune in Angeline's life was getting involved with Ingrid and Ned!" Then, there was this Twitter post. Squirrel&Fishie: "Ingrid got together with Ned by pretending to be Angeline. Now that Ingrid decided to stop pretending and return to
Angeline said to Nathaniel sincerely, "Thank you…""Don't sweat it! I'm just doing my job. Hooper Group is a listed company. Ned and Ingrid's exaggerated story was hyped so much today that it crashed Twitter's server twice! Now that news of the Hooper and Lawson families' marriage is out, I'm sure even more people will be paying attention. Hooper Group's stock will shoot up following the marriage alliance with Lawson Global!"Nathaniel smiled and said, "Consider this a win-win situation." Seeing Angeline just smile without checking the top trends on her phone, Nathaniel said, "Ned mentioned on the show that you're his whole world. Paparazzi Aiden even exposed that Ingrid got close to Ned by pretending to be you. Then, Ned ended his engagement to Ingrid after he recovered his memories.""So? Just ask away!" Angeline said with a smile. "Since you've helped me this time, I'll satisfy your gossip curiosity." "Now that you know Ingrid got together with Ned by pretending to be you,
"Mr. Lawson Senior and my grandpa have been planning this marriage alliance for a while. How could this be sudden? Plus, didn't the media report that I'm dating Angie? Didn't you read the news?" Nathaniel mocked. "Quit joking around! How could the others know when I don't know myself? Back then, the media was just making up stories and writing nonsense. You're already staying in Grand Court Residences, so when the media said you were living together, we all just brushed it off. Who would've thought you're actually serious?" Kieron continued painfully, "Oh God! Now that you're together with Angeline and the Lawson and Hooper families have formed a marriage alliance, my grandpa will soon give the final approval for me and Lara! Once we're engaged, I can't date the pretty ladies anymore." Kieron said after wailing, "You're not considerate, my man. Why didn't you invite me to your proposal?" "It's my grandpa's birthday today. We didn't have a birthday banquet because we were prepar
"Okay! I'll call Aurelia right now to have her change the photo," Nathaniel said to Angeline.After hanging up the call, Nathaniel quickly called Aurelia. A few minutes later, Angeline refreshed the Tweet and was relieved to find that Aurelia had changed the sixth photo. Aurelia was so focused on not exposing the twins' faces that she didn't realize half of Jessica's face was showing in the photo. After scrolling through her Twitter feed, Angeline figured that the cause of the storm brewing on the Internet was because of Ned. During a live interview, he said he had canceled his engagement to Ingrid and tearfully declared that Angeline was his whole world. Sean, who was in Keman, also saw this commotion happening in Lonla. He looked through the photos in his study room. Sean enlarged the photo where Angeline smiled with an outreached hand to Nathaniel. He felt something tugging hard on his heartstrings. "Granddad wished that I could get married."Don't worry. I still rem
Angeline calmly said, "You have something you have to do. Shouldn't we reduce contact to prevent your identity from being exposed and for the safety of the Lawson family? Before you left, we were already prepared not to call or meet each other until you've attained your revenge. "Yet now you're saying we're at odds. So, what's not at odds in your opinion? Should I go to Keman to see you? Or are you coming back to see me?" Angeline added, "Don't you think you're being unreasonable?" Sean remained silent on the other end of the phone. "If you're calling to ask about my marriage with Nathaniel, don't worry. We've signed a marriage contract. We'll be like you and Melissa, just married on paper." Angeline said with a hint of mockery, "Well, the only difference is that Nathaniel and I are still living on separate floors after the marriage, and we're not moving in together." Sean felt a lump in his throat. "Are you trying to get back at me?" Angeline remembered the trade offer
Sean went silent again. Angeline would've thought no one was over the phone if not for the sound of Sean's breathing. "Sean, I'm still the same as before. I can continue my life without you." Angeline looked at the diamond ring on the bedside table that she had taken off. "I don't mind regardless if you'll return. For me, there's no difference." "So, I'm not important to you anymore, am I?" Sean sounded strained. "It's neither right nor wrong. It's just that there are other important people in my life now, not just you." Angeline felt a sting in her heart as she spoke. "When you ignored my plea and threatened me with Benjamin, you reminded me of Ned. He once threatened me in the same way. I don't want to experience that again. I hope you can understand me." Sean's breathing quickened. "But Angie, at that time, Melissa's life was uncertain—" "You don't have to explain. I know. I know and understand." Angeline kept her composure throughout their conversation.
Text messages from Brayden, whose number was already blocked by Angeline, kept popping up.He wrote, "Didn't I tell you that being Nathaniel's wife would only lead to your death? Why did you still accept his proposal?"Another message read, "Did you accept the proposal to resolve the public opinion crisis?"He continued, "But the timing doesn't make sense! This proposal seems to have been planned long before this crisis. So, did you really choose Nathaniel?"In the fourth message, he wrote, "Please unblock me first. I won't force you to get married within a month anymore. Don't make any hasty decisions!"Angeline frowned as she watched Bradyen bombard her with messages. She wondered how he could still send her messages when she had already blocked his number.She then looked up online on how to stop receiving messages from a sender. Following the instructions, she clicked on the top right button of the contact and blacklisted Brayden's number.Soon after, Brayden realized he cou
