She immediately sat up at the sight of her own name. "Where did you get all this news, Lily? Which outlet publicized it?"
"It's literally everywhere on the Internet. You're trending on Facebook too! At first, it was something like 'Divine Corp Secretary,' but now, your name's being plastered everywhere."
Charlotte clutched her hair in panic. How am I going to prove myself innocent?This will be nearly impossible...Besides, Michael has never made himself known to the media. No one's going to believe him, even if he acts as my witness. I should've stopped those two while I had the chance last night. Why would they do it in the car at the beach, anyway? They could've just gone to a hotel! They didn't even try to keep it low and ended up having their pictures taken. And now, I've been dragged into their disgusting affairs. Wait a minute.
Why is Hector's face completely visible while Helena's isn’t?Something doesn't seem right.
"You can’t hide your affair with Mr. Sterling any longer, Charlotte. It's all over the news now. I heard from Mr. Yates that an affair would have such a huge impact on the company's image. Even the shares will be affected! Do you think Mr. Sterling will marry you instead to protect his reputation?" Lily began probing.
"That's not what's happening," Charlotte hurriedly explained. "There's nothing going in between Mr. Sterling and-"
"Oh, come on. Your videos are everywhere! There's nothing else to hide at this point. Besides, we’re friends, aren't we? It’s not like I'd go around telling other people about this. You don't have to worry about being honest with me!"
"No-"
"Hang on. There’s another article," Lily cut Charlotte off before yelling in shock. "Oh, God! I can't believe it, Charlotte! So you were once actually a nightclub princess who even played around with a T Nation male model? You're full of surprises!"
"What did you say?" Charlotte asked, utterly taken aback.
"I’ll send you another link. Have a look at it."
Lily began to sound grave.
