Chapter 373

The press was relentless, hurling baseless claims and pointed questions at her.

In a mix of frustration and humiliation, Jayleen tried to fend off the cameras.

Her usual air of arrogance had faded, leaving her looking quite mortified.

“Rubbish! It’s all rubbish! Just stop!

Enough! I’m leaving!”

The camera caught Jayleen at her most desperate and flustered, and the image was quickly posted online.

That day, her name shot up in the search trends, and netizens swarmed with ridicule.

“Have you seen Jayleen’s face? Hilarious…”

“Time to step down from the director’s chair for someone competent!

Lindsey seems like she could handle it.

”

“People are starting to think Jayleen had a hand in Selah’s accident!”

“They need to look into this and give us answers! If she’s guilty, she should be in jail!”

That afternoon, Nicolas had plans.

So he said goodbye to Vincent and the rest.

On his way out, he got a carefully selected package from his assistant and gave it to Lindsey.

“Miss Stewart, I noticed Selah’s outfit was ruined in the crash, so I had my assistant pick out something new.

I’m not sure if it’ll fit, but could you give it to her? If she’s okay with it, it might work for now.

”

Earlier, Lindsey had found Selah an outfit, but it wasn’t ideal for going out.

“That’s very thoughtful of you.

Selah will be grateful,” Lindsey said with a polite smile, accepting the package.

With a warm smile, Nicolas left.

Lindsey, with a sly grin, pulled Selah aside.

She chuckled.

“It looks like you got lucky.

”

“What?” Selah’s expression held a mixture of surprise and confusion.

“Nicolas had someone shop for new clothes for you,” Lindsey explained, as she passed the package to Selah and leaned in for a whisper.

“I think Nicolas likes you.

”

Feeling her heartbeat quicken, Selah hastily placed her hand over Lindsey’s mouth, cautioning her, “Lindsey, stop spreading rumors.

If this gets out, I’ll be trending online!”

“Alright, I’ll keep quiet.

But you should think about moving on, especially now that you’re divorced from Andrew,” Lindsey remarked, removing Selah’s hand with a look of genuine concern.

Selah averted her gaze, absentmindedly twirling the package’s string around her finger.

“My focus is on my work right now.

I’m not interested in dating.

Plus, I have Elaine to think about.

I want to be there for her without any distractions.

”

Lindsey, still upset from her argument with Domenic, wrapped an arm around Selah and said, “Exactly.

We need to prioritize our careers.

Men should just step aside and let us be.

”

The moment she finished her statement, Lindsey’s phone buzzed.

It was Domenic calling, as if on cue with her thoughts.

Lindsey’s lips tightened in a mix of annoyance and anticipation.
