Marry My Ex’s Uncle After Rebirth
Chapter 28
Facing all kinds of doubts, Florence still kept a smile on her face.
She looked at Douglas affectionately. âWe have already explained the photos and videos. They are all sheer fiction. As for the truth, I canât tell you more, because Douglas and I have people that we want to protect.â Florenceâs words were vague.
At this time, a manâs voice was heard.
âSheer fiction? How dare you say that. The photos and videos are real. You s a t h e d away another personâs fiancé and even shamelessly hinted that the person you want to protect has fallen in love with the other guy. Youâre merely pretending to be a good person after doing immoral things.â Giovanni, who was wearing sunglasses and had unruly silver hair, spoke ruthlessly. His words made Florenceâs expression darkened.
The reporters started to ask questions again.
Meanwhile, Douglas tried to mediate the situation. âIâm already engaged to Flore, and weâll hold our wedding ceremony one day. The Fletcher and the Hayes families approve of our relationship. I hope that you stop asking about it.â
However, Giovanni sneered and raised his chin, âYouâre letting it go so quickly. Donât you need to give the public an explanation for Florenceâs lip syncing?â
Douglas realized that Giovanni was there to stir up trouble. âFine, Iâll take this opportunity to explain Floreâs lip-syncing Douglas answered.
For a moment, everyone was silent. After all, it was big news that Fantasy Entertainment had never given an official response to.
Douglas cleared his throat. âInitially, Floreâs sample was accepted. But after drinking the coffee brewed by Stephanie, her vocal cords were damaged, and she couldnât sing anymore. To compensate Flore, Stephanie took the initiative to be her vocal double. It can be seen from the concert that Stephanie deliberately hurt Flore to become the latterâs vocal double. Stephanieâs goal is to ruin Flore when Flore is at the peak of her career.â
His words caused commotion around.
Florence was stunned. She did not expect that Douglas would tell them her excuse. If Stephanie were to know about it, she might take revenge on Florence. Thus, Florence clenched in silence.
One asked, âWasnât Stephanie your fiancée, Mr. Fletcher? Why is she Mr. Vincent Fletcherâs fiancée now?â
Another asked, âStephanie is Florenceâs sister. How could she do such a thing?â
Someone else chimed in, âHow long has it been planned? Sheâs so c** gâ
Another said, âI heard that Stephanie is a troublemaker. Who knew that sheâs such a scheming b**h!â
Someone else said, âFlorence is so unlucky to have such a sister.â
The whole public opinion turned in favor of Florence and slandered Stephanie.
Giovanni gritted his teeth in anger and shouted, âCalm down, everyone! Are you sure itâs Stephanieâs fault just from Douglasâ words? We shouldnât cover up the truth. Stephanie will come today. How about waiting here for the truth?â
Everyone agreed and wanted to wait for the truth.
Looking at Florenceâs pursed lips, Douglas patted her hand. âDonât worry, Flore. Weâll take this opportunity to clarity and expose Stephanieâs schemes to the public,â

Just then, a black Maybach appeared at the entrance. Sitting in the passenger seat, Olivia got out of the car. She was used to walking on the red carpet.
Thus, she warmly greeted the reporters, instantly attracting everyoneâs attention.
Meanwhile, Zane got out of the car and got the wheelchair ready. He opened the door and helped Vincent sit on it. Then, Stephanie got out of the car and pushed Vincentâs wheelchair forward.
One said, âWow, sheâs so beautiful!â
Another commented, âYes, she has a
a good figure as well. Just look at her long hair.â
The praises were heard and Olivia raised her head. âThank you, everyone.â
One said, âI havenât seen her before. She is Mr. Vincent Fletcherâs fiancée, right?â
Another commented, âI didnât expect her to be so beautiful, like a fairy.â
Someone else chimed in, âShe looks like a famous celebrity and
and even more beautiful than the best actress.â
The corners of Oliviaâs mouth twitched. It turned out that those compliments were for Stephanie. Olivia tried hard to maintain the smile on her face as she watched the cameras aimed at the spot behind her.
Meanwhile, Vincent did not like to be photographed, so he looked grim. Noticing the situation, Stephanie tried to walk faster. However, enemies often crossed paths, and they met Douglas and Florence.
Douglas stopped the two and said, âIâm sorry to bother you, Uncle Vincent, but I want to ask Stephanie for some clarification.â
Vincent looked at him. âIf you know youâre bothering me, why do you still do it? Get out of the way.â His voice wasnât loud, but his tone was
unquestionable,
His instruction made Douglas feel embarrassed, Moreover, Douglas already confirmed that Stephanie would explain about the vocal double, so he had to
bite the bullet and insist on it.
âI just want to ask Stephanie to clarify Floreâs vocal double, Uncle Vincent,â Douglas said.
âVocal double?â Vincent wondered. Then, Vincent looked at Stephanie. âWhat do you think!â
Stephanie nodded. âIâll explain.â
âOkay.â Vincent nodded.
With a smile, Stephanie said, âHello, everyone. Iâm Stephanie, who used to be Florenceâs vocal double. It was me who revealed her lip-syncing at the concert. Florence used my sample and handed it over to Fantasy Entertainment under her name. Then, she was chosen by Fantasy Entertainment and became a popular celebrity, Knowing that the secret would be exposed sooner or later, she admitted her mistake and hoped that I could be her vocal double. I thought that she treated me sincerely, so I forgave her and agreed to be her vocal double.â
Someone retorted, âWhat Mr. Douglas Fletcher said is exactly the opposite. He said that Florenceâs sample passed the companyâs various tests. But her throat was damaged and her vocal cords were injured after drinking coffee from you. You became Florenceâs vocal double to compensate her. Moreover, you want her to suffer a crushing defeat so you revealed the secret about the vocal double.â
Turning to look at Florence, Stephanie said, âWas it your sample that passed the companyâs tests? Are your vocal cords injured after drinking the coffee? But how could you speak so well?â
Florence knew that she had been caught in a difficult situation. Thus, she had to go along with the plan. Moreover, she had deleted the sample, and there was no backup in the company.

âOf course, it was my sample. But thereâs no backup in the company.â Florence pursed her lips and added, âAs for the coffee, you and I know about it. I can talk, but I canât sing anymore.â
âCanât you sing?â Stephanie raised her eyebrows. âHave everyone watched the video during the engagement party? Your voice that time was louder than your singing voice, right?â
With eyes brimming with tears, Florence said, âHow can you slander me, Stephie?â
âIâm telling the truth, and youâre the one slandering me.â Stephanie looked at Glovanni before adding, âDidnât you say you want evidence? Show them the sample back then, Giovanni,â
speaker from his backpack and connected it to the Bluetooth.
Giovanni took out a speaker
A sad melody sounded, and Stephanieâs voice was heard.
It was the first song released by Florence back then. She not only won Song of the Year using the song but also established her presence in the music industry. The sample was only the first draft, and there were some noises in it.
A subtle wave of emotions flashed across Florenceâs eyes. âIt doesnât prove anything! You could be doing something for the post-production.â
Stephanie nodded. âIndeed. Did you bring your laptop, Giovanni?â
Giovanni took out his laptop and put it in front of Stephanie.
Then, Stephanie clicked on a video from an email. âEveryone, please watch this.â
