Chapter 618
“I guess that’s why we are here,” Debra replied. Her directness sparked a flurry of online comments.
[Dang. Did she just drop that truth bomb without a second thought?] [She’s so honest. Wait for her to leak more.] [Is it just me, or does Megan seem a little sneaky?]
Debra’s straightforwardness instantly won her more fans.
Megan asked again, “Why? Is it because of those photos?” The cameras zoomed in on her, causing an online uproar.
[Girl. You just went there, huh?] [I wouldn’t be that bold.] [Spill the tea. We all wanna know the juicy details.]

The director watched in amazement as the viewer count skyrocketed. It seemed like everyone was tuning in to hear the gossip.
“That man in the photos? He’s my boyfriend,” Debra replied. The internet went wild.
[Wait! Did she just say boyfriend? Not a gigolo?] [This is the kind of drama I live for. This just got way more interesting.] [Uh, did anyone notice Juan’s face? Man looks like he’s about to explode.]
Megan, taken aback by Debra’s bluntness, decided it was best not to push any further.
“So, you’ve been divorced for a while now?” Wendy chimed in, her gaze shifting between Debra and Juan.
“Yes, we finalized it a while ago, but due to business reasons, we couldn’t announce it publicly. Now that it’s out, it’s kind of a relief for both of us, right, Mr. Nichols?”
Juan, maintaining his cold exterior, simply nodded. “Yeah.”
The online comments continued to roll in.
(OMG! Turns out they have been divorced.) [It’s not a big deal if people get divorced and don’t announce it for business reasons, right? It’s not like they’re celebrities who owe the public an explanation.]

[Highlighting the key point – it was unexpectedly made public. Something fishy is going on.] [Wah, I want to know who Debra’s boyfriend is. That silhouette of his is just killer.]

Seeing the shift in public opinion, the director breathed a sigh of relief.
“Well…” Megan seemed like she wanted to ask another question, but Edward, sitting beside her, quickly intervened. “Alright, that’s enough. You can’t pull all the juicy gossip from one person. Give it a rest, would you?”
The exchange between Edward and Megan gave off the vibe of a couple still in love, though Megan looked a little pouty as she stopped asking questions.
On the side, Juan silently peeled an apple.
[Feels like Juan really likes Debra. When he can’t get a word in, he just quietly peels an apple for her.] [He’s all about that deep affection. OMG, he’s so considerate.]
But just as viewers were ready to swoon, Juan popped the slice of apple into his mouth. The chat lit up.
[Um, never mind.] [Maybe he’s just thirsty? I mean, it’s an apple, right?] [I thought he peeled it for Debra. No wonder they divorced.]
Juan glanced down at his phone, having already seen the live chat scroll by. The apple had been for Debra. But, not wanting to cause unnecessary rumors, he ended up eating it himself.
