âThe CEO? I have never seen a CEO that good-looking!â
âBut seriously, is he crazy? Why is he kneeling in the blistering sun next to that sculpture?â
âWho knows whatâs going on in his headâ¦â
The elevator pinged, and the doors slid open, drowning out the girlsâ discussion.
As Nicole absentmindedly scrolled through her phone, her thoughts were fixated on the weather.
âWhy isnât it hotter today?â she mumbled to herself.
Upstairs, the press conference Caryâs wife held was about to begin.
Raegan made her way to the dressing room, seeking out Caryâs wife.
Before she came here, Raegan had meticulously gathered all the information available on Cary and his charming wife, Sherry.
Sherry, a woman eighteen years Caryâs junior, clearly hadnât married Cary for conventional notions of love.
Benefiting substantially from this marriage, Sherry, once a mere internet celebrity, had catapulted into the coveted echelons of a three-tier star in the entertainment circle.
The leap was undeniably significant.
After a gentle knock, Raegan heard a female voice from within say, âCome in.
â
When Raegan pushed the door open, Sherry saw Raegan in the mirror and abruptly leaped to her feet.
âWho are you? What are you doing here?â
Wearing a subtle yet meaningful smile, Raegan responded, âMrs.
Blake, itâs quite intriguing that youâre hosting a press conference to criticize me without even knowing who I am.
â
It took Sherry a moment to process the situation before the realization dawned on her.
âSo, you are the woman who seduced my husband!â
Upon hearing that, Raegan responded calmly, âMrs.
Blake, you canât simply throw around accusations like this.
Itâs a known fact that your husband set me up.
Moreover, he is yet to be released.
Donât you know the severity of his crime?â
Sherry was not a clever one.
Cary was detained at the police station, and she didnât seem to be bothered.
At a time like this, she adopted a not-so-smart advice to hold a press conference to capture the publicâs attention, aiming for further public support.
It was evident Sherry lacked foresight, even entertaining the notion that the opinions of internet celebrities could manipulate the justice system.

Regardless, Raegan paid no mind to Sherryâs apparent lack of intelligence.
Her sole focus was on ensuring that the mastermind of this conspiracy faced consequences.
Given that the mastermind had dared to entangle Janey in this affair, Raegan wouldnât let them off the hook so easily.
Moreover, Raegan intended to make the mastermind experience the repercussions of their actions! Didnât they enjoy exposing people through the news? Raegan would ensure the mastermind became a household name this time!
Sherry hesitated, unsure if she was making the right decision.
However, Miss Murray had assured her that seizing this opportunity could shift public opinion, absolving Cary of any blame and positioning her as the victim in this unfolding drama while gaining attention from the public.
The prospect of emerging as an A-list celebrity after the press conference fueled Sherryâs resolve.
With newfound confidence, she said, âMy husband is renowned for his loyalty, and his love for me is unwavering.
How dare you try to frame him! Your eagerness to secure a collaboration with his company led you down this deceitful path.
You drugged him, manipulated the online narrative, and now you dare to spew nonsense in front of me!â
Raegan met Sherryâs accusations with a gaze saturated in sarcasm.
What an idiot Sherry was! Raegan wondered how Sherry had survived in the cutthroat entertainment circle all these years.
