Chapter 459 Pressure From All Sides
Robert wasn’t his child.
Finished
The article laid it all out in detail–Chloe had cheated on Arthur, and the child she’d given birth to wasn’t his.
It was just gossip, tabloid fodder. But that single piece of information left Arthur completely speechless.
How could Robert not be his child? They’d gotten married because of that pregnancy. Arthur knew perfectly well that Chloe had married him back then for the baby’s sake–no conditions, no demands. Charles himself had officiated their wedding.
When Robert was born, Arthur had been at the hospital. He’d watched with his own eyes as the doctor carried Robert out. His grandfather had been so emotional back then, holding the baby and saying, “The Myers family finally has an heir.”
That scene felt like yesterday. Arthur understood exactly what kind of damage rumors like this could do.
The one who’d suffer most would be Chloe. What was she supposed to do now?
She’d been living quietly with Robert, and now this had exploded–the worst possible blow.
If Chloe wanted to clear her name, she’d have to prove Robert’s father was him.
But even if she produced proof now, would the gossip–hungry public believe it?
They’d just find more reasons to doubt. They’d accuse the wealthy of pulling strings, fabricating test results, covering everything up.
What was the person behind this really after?
Arthur knew who he was worried about. Even though they were divorced, even though his grandfather had stubbornly transferred the bulk of his shares to Chloe’s name, deep down he still cared about her.
Maybe this was his way of making up for what he’d done.
“Donald, get the PR team ready. Spare no expense–do whatever it takes to contain this.”
“Mr. Myers, this story’s gone viral. It’s trending internationally, dominating feeds everywhere. The whole internet’s demanding Ms. Lewis come forward and say who the child’s real father is.” Donald sounded genuinely worried.
Arthur’s frown deepened.
This was too much for Chloe to handle alone. How could one person stand against an army of media?
And this was only after a few hours. If it kept spreading like this, he didn’t want to imagine where it would
end.
Arthur thought for a long moment. He picked up his phone, meaning to call Charles, then stopped.

Chapter 459 Pressure From All Sides
What would his grandfather think when he found out?
Finished
He was Arthur. Chloe was his ex–wife. With the rumors targeting her now, it was only right–emotionally and logically–for him to step forward.
“Donald, make the arrangements. Set up a press conference. I’ll speak publicly and state clearly that Robert
my child. Arthur’s child.” Arthur stood as he spoke, adjusting his suit, already mentally preparing.

“Mr. Myers… Shareholder Logan Quirk’s on the line…” Donald held up his phone, expression uneasy.
Arthur glanced up. His own phone started ringing too.
Derek Cain, one of the company’s major shareholders.
Arthur watched the phone keep buzzing, his expression darkening. Given his position, he had to answer. The moment he picked up, another call came through from a vice president.
