The netizens had just finished gossiping about Ellen buying her championship, and
before they could even recover themselves, they were already faced with apologies
from the people who started the rumors. The development was so fast that they could
barely react in time.
In Alden’s video, two policemen were standing behind him. After Alden revealed the
entire process, the police also announced how the slander started and how it ended.
In an instant, the fans realized that Ellen was the true victim. She deserved every bit
of her championship, and she most certainly did not buy her way through it.
Not only that, several chess professionals voiced their thoughts as they analyzed the
game Ellen played in the finals. They were amazed at Ellen’s skill in chess, and it was
proof that she was a bona fide champion..
With the professionals backing her up, Ellen’s skills were once again acknowledged.
After the ruckus online, she was now receiving a huge wave of fans and support.
Ellen sat on the couch, donning a casual dress. She was too tired last night, so she
only woke up at 10.00AM this morning. As soon as she got up, she stumbled across
articles about herself. When she saw that her reputation had been restored, she put
down her iPad and turned around, running toward the study.
When she opened the door, the man who was sitting in the chair was startled by the
sudden noise. Without another word, Ellen walked toward him and spread out her
slender arms, then wrapped them tightly around his neck. She nuzzled into his
shoulder as she thanked him.
“Thank you!” Jared enjoyed her most sincere thanks as he reached up and caressed
the back of her head. “I’m just doing my job, aren’t I?”
With that, he kissed her forehead. “I’ve said before that I won’t let anyone hurt you.”
Ellen raised her beautiful eyes to look at him. His words were filled with security and
love.
With him around, she did not need to fear anything. Just then, Ellen heard the phone
ringing. She gave him a peck on the cheek, then said, “I’m going to answer the
phone.”
“Alright, go ahead.” Ellen sat on the couch and answered the call from the team.
