His 181St Second (Laverne and Marina) novel Chapter 562

Chapter 562

The entertainment reporter had called Elnora just to stir up trouble.

But she never expected Elnora to answer her questions so calmly and indifferently.

She was stunned for a moment, but still wanted to shamelessly keep asking Elnora more questions.

But Elnora spoke in a calm, indifferent voice. “Goodbye.”

With that, Elnora hung up the phone.

‘Did she really just hang up on me?’ the entertainment reporter thought, stunned into silence.

The questions she asked would have been explosive for any wife in Elnora’s position.

But Elnora stayed calm the whole time and didn’t take the bait.

Since she kept her emotions in check, there was no way to get under her skin.

Instead, the entertainment reporter ended up getting flustered.

After all, not every wife would actually pick up a reporter’s call.

But she got lucky. Elnora actually answered.

However, she totally wasted such a golden opportunity and failed to get Elnora to snap.

With Elnora staying so calm, there wasn’t much for the article to grab people’s attention.

Only when the wife went off the rails and started cursing did the story really explode online.

Frustrated, the reporter bit her lip and dialed Elnora’s number again.

But this time, Elnora didn’t answer.

She kept calling, but the line stayed busy. No matter what, she couldn’t get through.

She was the only reporter who actually got Elnora on the phone that night.

When the reporter brought the recording to her boss, she got chewed out.

Her boss snapped, “Is that really how you asked your questions?

“I told you to get straight to the point! Straight to the point!”

The reporter felt awkward as she whispered, “I just wanted to get a reaction out of her, but she didn’t take the bait at all.”

If only she could’ve made Elnora lose her cool, the next day’s headlines would’ve really blown up.

But the reporter was at her wits’ end.

Her boss played the recording again, but still couldn’t find any juicy bits to cut out.

Elnora was so chill, barely giving them anything to work with.

They couldn’t even start editing. There was just nothing there.

“Boss, should we still release this recording?” the entertainment reporter asked cautiously.

Her boss nodded, his face grim.

“Of course we’re releasing it,” he said. “Just cut out the last part and put it out as is.”

If people found out that their outlet got grilled by the interviewee for lacking professionalism, they’d be the joke of the whole industry.

The entertainment reporter nodded and rushed off to take care of it.

That night, the interview with Elnora responding to the entertainment reporter’s questions was made public.

Her composed demeanor and understated answers didn’t cause much of a stir.

The spotlight shifted from Albert and Arnetta’s relationship mess to Elnora’s attitude toward the whole situation.

Once the news dropped, the comments section blew up with all kinds of speculation.

[Ms. Elnora really lives up to her reputation. I’ve got a friend in Vrufield who runs in the same circles, and he says Ms. Elnora is an emotionless machine, all about work and nothing else.]

[Come on, Ms. Elnora would definitely have known what kind of person Mr. Campbell was before marrying him.

[That entertainment reporter is really something. Calling the wife with those questions is just rubbing salt in her wounds. That’s pretty messed up.]

[When has the entertainment media ever cared about morals? They’re like killers. People have literally died because of this kind of thing, and they still haven’t changed. It’s a shame.]

[Seriously, what’s so impressive about interviewing the wife? Why don’t they go interview the homewrecker instead?]

As soon as someone mentioned the word “homewrecker,” Arnetta’s fans swarmed the comments section.

[Please, Elnora’s the real homewrecker here! Mr. Campbell knew Arnetta first. Have you ever heard of ‘whoever’s first wins’?]

[Don’t tell me you think there isn’t an interview with the so-called homewrecker?]

[Go listen for yourselves. The homewrecker’s interview is already out. Another outlet dropped it.]

When Elnora saw all those comments, she was about to scroll away, but somehow her finger clicked on a recording someone had posted in the comments section.

It was the entertainment reporter’s interview with Arnetta.

Entertainment Reporter: “Ms. Taylor, what’s really going on between you and Mr. Campbell? He’s married, so why were you two booking a hotel room together? Are you his secret lover?”

This reporter’s questions were way more ruthless. Every single one was a direct hit to Arnetta’s weak spot.

Arnetta paused for a few seconds before she finally replied.

Her voice was soft, almost timid, with a hint of vulnerability.

Arnetta replied, “There’s absolutely nothing between Albert and me. I’m just working for his company. He’s just my boss, nothing more.

“Speculate about me all you want, but please don’t twist things between us. We’re just friends, just colleagues.”

Entertainment Reporter: “So, how do you explain the photos of you walking into the hotel draped in Mr. Campbell’s suit jacket, and him coming in right after you? Were you two sharing a room?”

Arnetta’s voice was hesitant and uneven. “It’s all just a misunderstanding, just a coincidence.”

But her explanation only made her seem even more nervous and suspicious.

The entertainment reporter pressed on, “So, Ms. Taylor, have you ever thought about being Mr. Campbell’s lover?

“Are you two not quite lovers yet, or is this an old flame coming back to life?”

Arnetta didn’t answer. There was a long, tense silence.

After a few seconds, she abruptly hung up.
