Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
And whoâs that other guy in the photo?â
âUh⦠Selah, shouldnât we focus on clearing up these rumors?â
Lindsey replied.
But Selah responded, âYou once said that whatâs true canât be false, and whatâs false canât be true.
Iâm more curious about your happiness now.
â
After a brief pause, Lindsey said, âI need to head to work now.
Iâm going to hang up.
Iâll sort out this situation with Sumner.
â
Once she ended the call, Lindsey realized Jayleenâs intentions from the night before.
Jayleen was trying to smear her image using her association with Sumner, aiming to sway public opinion against Vincent.
Vincentâs reputation in the industry stemmed from his unwavering commitment to fairness and thoroughness in his actions.
He harbored a strong aversion to casting decisions influenced by connections or wealth.
Vincent, known for his principles, wouldnât sit by and do nothing about itâ¦
Upon reaching her workplace, Lindsey immediately sensed the cold glares from some of her colleagues as she walked into the department.
Those who had issues with her previously seized the chance to make sarcastic remarks.
Additionally, there were a few who, under Jayleenâs discreet encouragement, aimed to deliberately stir up negative sentiments.
âI overheard from HR that Sumner applied to be a singer here and requested Lindsey as his agent.
Seems theyâve been connected for a while.
â
âSome just use their romantic ties to advance their careers.
Itâs clear that some habits never change.
â
âAnd then there are those who fawn over and compliment people like her.
Itâs a sad reflection of how public values are declining more and more each day.
â
After the dinner, Jayleenâs educational background was inadvertently revealed, leading some employees in the department to express support for Lindsey.
âIt appears Lindsey and Mr.
Lopezâs godson did nothing untoward.
Perhaps that man is indulging in wishful thinking.
In the photo, Lindsey seems closer to another man.
Could he be her boyfriend?â
Lindsey paid no heed to the gossip and proceeded straight to her office.
Upon opening the door, her colleagues exclaimed in surprise, âLook, Mercerâs biggest fan is publicly siding with Lindsey!â
Frowning, Lindsey entered her office and closed the door, swiftly opening her Twitter account.
In the trending topic about her, an account named MercerFanati was defending Lindsey against the netizens.
One netizen remarked, âLindsey has a seductive face, clearly meant for captivating men.
â
MercerFanatic retorted, âIf you lack a mirror at home, at least find something that can reflect your face! Take a good look at yourself.
If a seductress can captivate a man, why canât you? Are you really that unattractive?â
Another netizen commented, âMaybe Lindsey is just good in bed and relies on menâs connections.
â
MercerFanatic countered, âPerhaps you should reflect on why the powerful ones arenât sleeping with you.
Is it because youâre unattractive and lazy?â
