Chapter 91
Kyle calmed down right then. “What do you mean?”
Even so, Noel still looked annoyed, as Kyle’s mockery and outburst left her utterly disgruntled.
She used to bear with his outbursts because she wanted him.
Now that she had zero interest in him, all he said only filled her with spite.
“Sorry I got a little emotional, Noel,” Kyle said, naturally noticing that he had been too harsh, quickly turning mild-mannered as he could clearly tell that Noel had a plan. “Please understand-I’m just worried that you’re still helping your sister after she used you.”
While Noel was not that understanding, she did not get petty since Kyle was still useful to her.” You see, since Starstream Fashion is now wildly popular, every article on them is positive, with the media and netizens flattering them to no end. But if a scandal suddenly hits at this juncture, do you really think Starstream Fashion would retain their popularity? In fact, I expect a dramatic turn of the tide.”
Though Kyle quickly understood the plan, he asked, “But is there a scandal involving Starstream Group? There was that shuffle of personnel, but I don’t think it’d gain traction.”
“Starstream Group may not be involved in any scandals… but my sister sure is.
“What scandal?” Kyle was abruptly wary, and quickly added, “I’m not going to throw my reputation away here. It’d be a pyrrhic victory!”

Obviously, he cared a lot about maintaining appearances, and he was worried that Noel would use his relationship with Cordy as fuel for a scandal.
No matter what happened, he did not want anyone to catch any dirt on him!
“Relax, Kyle. Of course I won’t let your reputation be tarnished-anyway, do you remember the photos I sent you before?” Noel asked.
Kyle thought about it, and soon realized what she was referring to. “You mean…”
“My sister’s reputation would be completely destroyed when those photos go public. Granted, it’s never been good, but it’d just give the photos more traction.”
