Everyone is , everyone is deceiving her! "This is the truth of the matter, Phoebe and I are passionately in love, hoping we can make it to the end, and also hoping the online rumors can stop. I don’t want her to be harmed in any way." William’s heartfelt words still echoed in the room. Anna looked up, full of sarcasm. She once thought he was an honest person, but didn’t expect his true colors to show so quickly. After William finished speaking, he announced the end of the press conference. As he walked backstage, he called Phoebe. Phoebe answered this time, her tone slightly better. "Miss Lawson, rest assured, even though I said that publicly, I still won’t do anything to you. After a while, we’ll peacefully break up, so it won’t affect you." Phoebe’s lips curled, her fingers tapping lightly on the table beside her. Official source ıs 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝔫𝔢𝔱 "Looks like you really love your girlfriend, willing to go to such lengths for her. William, I’ll let that slap she gave me slide. You better hurry and make up with her. After all, she just lost a child." William felt his whole body stiffen upon hearing her words, truly infuriated. If it weren’t for Anna storming into the villa last time and saying those things, how would Phoebe have known such details? She wouldn’t be mocking him now. "I and she actually... actually we already broke up, and that child isn’t mine." He shamelessly said, without a hint of guilt on his face. Phoebe had the phone on speaker, so even Eleanor and Hugo who were nearby heard it. The two exchanged glances, smiles on their faces. Phoebe casually said a few more words before hanging up the phone. "That William is something, I thought he was an honest guy, worried he’d be deceived by Anna. Now it seems he’s the one who fooled Anna. Tsk tsk, men, they really change when they get money." Eleanor said, casting a sidelong glance at Hugo. Hugo only felt aggrieved, what did this have to do with him? He hadn’t changed for the worse. "President Quinn, Miss Hollis, I’ll be heading back now. This matter is coming to an end, don’t forget our deal." Phoebe stood up, every move exuding charm. Hugo nodded, holding Eleanor in his arms. "I’ll have Lan Yancy hand over the contract to you. Once the matter is completely concluded, we’ll start discussing the endorsement deal." Phoebe said before leaving in her high heels. Eleanor enviously watched her back. Not long ago, when Hugo brought Phoebe in, she refused because the woman seemed too much like a trophy wife, obviously a pampered young lady, but Phoebe’s methods showed her she’s no young lady at all but a walking lethal weapon. "This Phoebe, not simple at all, no wonder she’s been navigating the entertainment world for so long." Eleanor yawned as she spoke, slowly nestling into Hugo’s arms. Hugo helped wipe away the tears at the corner of her eye, then patted her head. "Eat something, she has plenty more tricks up her sleeve, not on the same level as Anna." Eleanor indeed felt hungry. Probably because Phoebe and William’s scandal diverted everyone’s attention, no one was discussing Anna’s miscarriage anymore. However, the bug was still under that hospital bed, and Eleanor had already gathered enough evidence. If Anna dared to keep acting up, she’d ensure she could never bounce back, like Claire Shaw, pitifully living abroad. After eating, the two rested on the sofa. Marcus returned from Quinton Manor, but he didn’t look happy. "Dad, that person is so annoying, that Nathaniel Quinn, he keeps asking about mommy." He sat down beside them, very displeased, and said. Hugo squinted his eyes. Speaking of which, when Quentin Quinn took those two abroad last time, he forgot about Nathaniel, thinking the old man was already very old and couldn’t handle too many farewells, so he left Nathaniel behind. Without Quentin and Beatrice, Nathaniel wasn’t much of a threat, but that didn’t mean Hugo liked seeing other men coveting his woman. "I’ll have the old man find something for him to do. Isn’t the Quinton Group still short-staffed? Just stuff him in there and instruct the people there to give him a lot of work, so he doesn’t have time to daydream." Marcus’s eyes widened, then he grabbed Hugo’s hand. "Dad, I support you! That’s exactly what needs to be done. Hmph, otherwise, he’ll keep thinking about mommy." Eleanor looked at the father and son duo, finding it amusing, but at the same time, a warm feeling arose in her heart. At night, while lying in bed, she turned over several times before finally turning into Hugo’s arms. "Have you ever realized how good you are to me?" She looked up, staring at his face, and said. Hugo raised an eyebrow, isn’t being good to her what he should do? Eleanor originally had a lot to say, but seeing his justified expression, she sighed, buried her face into his neck, and said no more. Hugo reached out, hugging her waist, a smile flashing in his eyes. "As long as you know I’m good to you, that’s enough. I don’t want to act like a fool, doing things you don’t understand. Eleanor, I want you to know my goodness, so you’ll never leave me." Eleanor didn’t answer, a flicker in her eyes, as if she were immersed in honey. After a night of fermentation, all the negative news about Phoebe had disappeared. Everyone concocted a touching love story. The rumors online became more and more fantastic, and finally, many people believed Phoebe was with William when he was still a poor boy. They liked each other, and even after William’s status changed, he didn’t abandon this relationship. They persisted. Now, how could everyone remain calm? What society needs most is such a love story. For a moment, the internet was filled with posts praising Phoebe and William. These posts almost drove Anna to autism, and her hospital room had long been smashed to pieces. In recent days, no nurse dared come to her because they would definitely be scolded incessantly. Anna felt she couldn’t stay any longer and immediately arranged for discharge. Ever since Alice left that day, she hadn’t come again. Anna felt as if she had been abandoned by the whole world. Back at the villa, Alice was cooking, probably knowing she’d be back tonight, preparing some of her favorite dishes. Nicholas was also there, but in such a short time, he had lost a lot of weight and looked drained. Nicholas already knew the real Rachel is back. Today he came for dinner, not for anything else, but to persuade Alice to surrender.
