Reading Juicy Gossip in Her Mind

Just then. Isabella spoke up again. “Could it be that you’re apologizing under pressure, afraid of retaliation from Mr. Carey and Mr. Briggs? Your sincerity in the video seemed genuine to me.”
The onlookers were momentarily stunned. Isabella had hit a nerve.
One would have to find someone to take the blame after such matters were exposed in public.
Maybe the young girl was telling the truth.
Rebecca was suddenly shocked as if an arrow had been pulled from her chest. She stared at Isabella in astonishment.
The mist was cleared away.
“No. I was just… just talking nonsense. I really…” The girl was bewildered, completely unsure whether she should admit it or not.
What she didn’t know was that once words were spoken, they were like water spilled. Even if they evaporated, they could never be taken back.
Initially. Taylor and Riley thought Isabella’s persistent questioning genuinely suspected their involvement
with Rebecca.
But as they scanned the crowd, they saw the various expressions around them and finally realized what didn’t sit right.
Even if the accuser confessed, not everyone might believe it! Plus, tonight’s farce would surely be exaggerated in the telling.
Taylor and Riley were really itching to punch the girl at that moment.
Suddenly, they sighed. Unconsciously, they glanced at Rebecca, wondering if the rumors about her in the industry had been like this all along.
At that moment, Taylor and Riley finally managed to overlook the trouble and embarrassment that Isabella had caused them. They felt relieved that the incident had come to light.
At least in the case of Taylor and Riley, they could fully prove their innocence.
Riley couldn’t be bothered to speak for himself and beckoned a seasoned cameraman over. “Mario, can you tell us if this kind of thing could possibly be true?”
Mario was at a loss for words, “This is definitely false. But the newbies probably don’t know. Mr. Briggs is Mr. Carey’s brother–in–law! How could they possibly do that together? Not only wouldn’t they do that, Mr. Briggs would even help ward off other women from getting close to Mr. Carey! That’s why Mr. Carey has had no scandals after all these years. He’s a henpecked husband! Mr. Briggs has a sister complex, and they’re both super clingy…”
The more Mario talked, the more excited he became, but he was hurriedly silenced by Taylor and Riley. “Enough, enough. It’s already enough to prove our innocence regarding Ms. Yancey.”

Inwardly, Isabella was already bursting with laughter.

I intended for Mr. Carey and Mr. Briggs to come clean about their relationship, to dispel any possibility of the rumors being true. I didn’t expect so much to be revealed, but this certainly isn’t my fault.
Christopher and Danielle were well aware of this. The reason they could put together such a grand event was because they had the support of a successful businesswoman behind them.
Rosalie heard it for the first time and couldn’t help but smile brightly. Now they could finally prove Rebecca’s innocence.
Looking over. Rosalie saw Rebecca staring blankly at Isabella, her expression no longer the mask of a coquettish smile, but rather one of youthful bewilderment.
She looked like a prisoner who seemed incapable of believing that good fortune could ever befall her.
Observing the expressions of those around her, Isabella knew she had achieved her goal. Thus, she decided to wrap things up.
“Well, if that’s the case, then I believe you,” she said, but couldn’t resist adding, “But what about you saying that Ms. Yancey seduced your boyfriend…”
The girl seemed to take another blow and was unable to hold back. “I was wrong, I really was. My boyfriend only glanced at Ms. Yancey from afar. It was all my fault.”
“Oh, why are you like this? Ms. Yancey is so innocent. You should be taking it out on your boyfriend instead of causing trouble for Ms. Yancey. Tsk tsk, why do women make things difficult for each other?” Isabella sighed and turned to Rebecca. She smiled. “My apologies for almost misunderstanding you.”
Rebecca responded, “No, I should be thanking you, Ms. Jeannet. Really, thank you.”
Rebecca’s tone was particularly different, causing those familiar with her to look at her involuntarily. She restrained her emotions, her expression professional but with a hint of dazzle in her eyes.
She wondered if Isabella’s willingness to help meant their agency was willing to sign her.
“Fortunately, everything has been brought to light. When things are clarified, there will be no more misunderstandings.” Isabella smiled and glanced at Ruth. “It was also an injustice for Ms. Yancey to be dragged into this mess. Anyway, the truth will prevail!”
People on Isabella’s side had started to grasp a bit of the situation.
Isabella used this incident to give Ruth one final reminder, hoping she could see for herself how negative scandals were attached to Rebecca.
They all understood it, and Ruth probably understood it too. Isabella hoped she would restrain herself instead of venting her anger on an innocent person by spreading rumors.
When it was over, Ruth’s eyes were red with anger when she saw her husband rushing to comfort Rebecca.
She never thought that Rebecca would take the initiative to come over.
Previously, Rebecca had always avoided Ruth. She was aware that the band of wives planned to gang up on her, aiming to sabotage her upcoming performance. However, this was the most crucial gamble she was about to take as her contract was nearing its end. It was a gamble on her gradually budding passion for

performing and a gamble on her grandmother’s future medical expenses. She didn’t wish to encounter any unforeseen incidents.
Ruth gave a grim smile. Confront? Am I going to listen to my husband saying that he’s going to divorce me to marry someone else in front of this mistress?
Rebecca saw her disbelief and continued, “I can swear that after this performance, I will no longer with Mr. Gonzales. Mrs. Gonzales, can you believe that I haven’t seduced Mr. Gonzales?”
Rebecca’s tone was so harsh that Ruth was
momentarily taken aback.
However, it wasn’t long before she said, “I know why you’ve sought me out. But you can put that thought to rest. You’ve ruined my marriage, so I won’t let you of the hook!”
After that, Ruth turned and left.
