William’s public relations team was quite impressive, capable of twisting the truth and mounting in effective campaign of slander..

After using a health report to sow doubt in the online community which had evolved into a formidable force of condemnation, a statement was promptly r

First, William admitted the mistake of concealing his marriage, then they gave a heads– up that the whole truth would be revealed during the live broadcast. Also, they subtly hinted that William and Jennie were both innocent.

Isabella thought, D*mn, they planned to leverage the popularity of the show to spin a web of lies, whitewashing their reputation. They haven’t made their

“Surely, Jessica will come forward to prove her innocence,” exclaimed Selena, taken aback.

“Jessica never wanted anyone to find out about her illness,” Evian said, her brows furrowed in

concern.

“Could you perhaps persuade her, Evie?” Rosalie suggested anxiously.

Evian, as the hospital director, felt it was within her duties to show concern for the patients. So, she inquired about Jessica’s condition.

The hospital informed Evian that Jessica had seen the news online. It seemed to have hit her hard, causing her to shut herself away. The nurses and do

Public opinion had been entirely swayed. William and Jennie were perceived as star– crossed lovers, deeply in love yet unable to be together. Jessica, on the other hand, was painted as the villainous wife, clinging onto a love that clearly d

Although it wasn’t officially endorsed, it sparked widespread speculation. It wasn’t hard to see whose marketing strategy was at play.

The events that unfolded left the Quirks utterly astounded.

“Why is it that the unfaithful always seem to live better lives than the devoted?” Rosalie couldn’t help but ask Isabella.

Everyone curiously turned to look over.

“Throwing a tantrum and not reflecting on one’s mistakes is the real secret to longevity,” Isabella said as if she was dishing out profound advice.

Isabella was in the middle of cursing when she received a call from Hayden, who had just received a notice.

“The first day’s shooting schedule was out. Whether it was a random draw or the production team’s scheme, we are set to compete against William’s team. The theme of the performance is ‘True Love. They would perform any attention. It is obvious that the production team is giving Team Young Again a chance to hold a press conference to clarify matters. Anyone else on their team is just cannon fodder. So, expectations in check. We decided to play it safe with the script, waiting for the controversy they stirred up to pass, so as not to get caught in the crossfir

Intrigued, Isabella asked, “Did they specifically choose our group to exact

Hayden sniggered in response.

Thoughtfully, Isabella said, “True love, huh. I have some ideas for the script.”

On the day of the shoot, William was holding his phone in a daze, waiting for Jessica to reach out to him. He had anticipated that Jessica would be storm in furiously to confront him after seeing the news. However, Jessica did nothing, which left him feeling uneasy.

“William, maybe we should just let it go. This is all my fault,” Jennie said, looking pitiful.

“At this point, there is no turning back. With the show airing, a divorce announcement is necessary,” Connor reminded her.

William closed his eyes momentarily. “She won’t even submit in such a situation. Forget it. Let the lawyer deal with her.”

Jennie’s eyes flickered. “What if Jessica refuses to sign the divorce papers?”

William avoided Jennie’s gaze, saying somewhat stiffly, “I will assure her that the divorce is a sham. After settling matters on your side, I will no longer ge

A glimmer of resentment flashed in Jennie’s eyes. “What if Jessica gets mad at you? What if she’s so furious that she won’t forgive you?”

“She won’t. We’ve been together since childhood. She loves me deeply. Even if she gets mad for a while, she’ll eventually forgive me.” After saying this,

between the two of them, the future would be all sunshine and rainbows? What kind of bizarre thinking does

he have?

Isabella was in the waiting area, reading her system, while Christopher and Rosalie, his assistant for the day, quietly eavesdropped.

In the audience section, David and Selena were too far away to hear Isabella’s thoughts and were filled with regret.

However, the live broadcast quickly commenced. After the host announced the competition format, Team Young Again was the first to take the stage.

At the same time, Jessica answered her phone because it was an unknown number.

“Hello, we are Mr. Sawyer’s legal counsel. May we ask if we’re speaking to Ms. Elmore?”

While waiting for the lawyer to arrive, Jessica was speculating about William’s intentions. She knew that every time William mentioned divorce, it was merely to scare her.

But what if this time, it is for real? Can I bring myself to let go?

William felt like the tumor in her brain. If she didn’t remove it, she would perish, yet the extraction process was fraught with danger. Without her parents a

As though seeking to alleviate her pain through self–inflicted torment, she yearned for closure on the matter.

Inside the hospital room, the television was on. Jessica was intently watching the live broadcast where William and Jennie were making their grand entra in hand.

A beautiful love story had begun.

And gradually, the sparkle in Jessica’s eyes began to fade.

Yet, the countless viewers watching the live stream were getting duped.

Those were all acts on stage, yet it appeared like a tale of star–crossed lovers torn apart.

The fans, based on their recent investigation into the real– life events involving the trio, instantly understood the meaning behind the stage play. This was the truth they had been waiting for.

The comments section was instantly flooded, causing an uproar online:

In this day and age, is it wrong to divorce someone when there’s no love? At least William hasn’t actually cheated.

Could you please give William his freedom? He has every right to pursue his own happiness.

In my opinion, ever since the renowned actor, William, co– starred with Jennie four years ago and was embroiled in a scandal, he’s been keeping his nose clean in all his roles over the years. It’s clear that this is t

There were also those who held differing opinions:

Since when a change of heart can be defended?

Am I the only one who sympathizes with the wife? What’s with this logic that favors the mistress?

However, they were swiftly overwhelmed by a barrage of comments. The trend was almost entirely one–sided.

The conclusion of the stage play was the couple getting divorced and the male lead getting together with his true love. As for the malicious wife, she disa

Even when the performance concluded, the barrage of comments didn’t cease.

It seemed like no one was really interested in the next performance.

Meanwhile, Evian was truly taken aback after watching the live broadcast. Concerned about Jessica’s condition, she rushed to the ward, only to find that

Suddenly, an ethereal voice echoed.

In the darkness, a ray of light fell upon Isabella. She was lying in a sickbed, all alone.

“I… I don’t know,” she uttered, as if she was on the brink of death.

“If you were given the chance to start over, what would you have chosen?” the ethereal voice continued.

“What would I have chosen?” Isabella continued to be bewildered.

“Between your health and him, what’s your pick? Between having your parents alive with you and him, who do you choose? A world– renowned photographer and him, who would it be? Actually, you still have a lot of choices, don’t you?”

The light gradually brightened, and Isabella slowly sat up, a spark flickering in her eyes. It was as if everything suddenly became clear, and the answer h
