"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
Ingrid's manager, Wanda, advised her to remain calm since Angeline had agreed to Nathaniel's proposal, and the chaotic situation online would soon be over.Once her show and the interviews she did before she set out to the deserted island aired, she could salvage the situation. Perhaps her fans would continue to support her again.Wanda repeatedly urged, "Just remember one thing—the bigger the wind and waves, the more famous you'll become! Don't log on to social media for now because you will leave a trail."Don't use any burner accounts, too, and don't bother reading the comments. These are all temporary and meaningless. Reading them will only affect your subsequent shooting."You've been in the industry for so many years. You should know how popular this show is now, so you must stay focused. Do you understand?"At that moment, Wanda hated how extended Lawson Global's network was. Without a network, she wouldn't have to worry about Ingrid sneaking online to read the netizens' co
The director spoke earnestly, "If it were just regular filming followed by editing, it wouldn't be a big deal, but our show is live even right now. What will the viewers say if you suddenly leave without finishing the show to find Ms. Lawson?"And what will you say to her when you see her? Will you ask her not to get engaged to Mr. Hooper? If the paparazzi, who are closely watching her, catch wind of it, wouldn't it confirm the allegations about her?"People would think she turned to Mr. Hooper only after her plan to tarnish Ingrid's reputation failed."Ned gripped his water glass tightly.The director continued, "If you go back now, you'll only bring trouble to Ms. Lawson's peaceful life. Chasing love isn't about causing trouble. Loving someone means solving their problems, not creating them."The director then patted Ned's shoulder and said, "I suggest you finish this episode first, at least so the viewers don't misinterpret her actions because of your sudden departure."Ned wa
Even though it was Saturday, Angeline had to go on a business trip to the Oceanford branch. While she had scheduled a meeting with a major international client there, she also needed to inspect the engine R&D center. She planned to restructure the personnel at the R&D center to expedite the research progress.Accompanying her on this trip were several high-level executives from Lawson Global, but they traveled separately and would meet at the hotel.Just as she reached the entrance with her suitcase, the doorbell rang. Thinking Taylor and Jamie were there to pick her up, she put on her blazer and high heels before opening the door.To her surprise, it was Nathaniel. He also dressed formally in a suit, standing at the door with a smile."Good morning!" he greeted.He stood among the bodyguards outside her door, looking somewhat comical in his formal attire."What's up?" she asked."I'm here to take my fiancée to the airport!" he said, jingling his car keys and taking her suitca
The paparazzo said, "Pft! Ms. Lawson means the world to him? It sounds more like Lawson Global means the world to him. Who doesn't know that after Mr. Lawson Senior's passing, the Lawson family's fortune and Lawson Global will all belong to Ms. Lawson?"If I were her ex-husband, I'd claim to have regained my memory and say she meant the whole world to me too! If the remarriage succeeded, I'd have control over the entire Lawson Global!"His colleague said, "True! Mr. Fletcher and Ms. Lawson do have a history. When he said in the live interview that she meant the world to him, I looked into their past. If he hadn't lost his memory, they probably would've been living happily together.""Who knows?""But don't you think Ms. Lawson should clarify things online since it's such a mess right now?"The paparazzo said again, "Why bother clarifying? She's already accepted someone else's proposal. Just letting that news out is enough. It's more effective than writing a lengthy explanation.
