Chapter 213

Marcus stepped outside the building and immediately noticed that the security team had managed to push the reporters farther away from the entrance. The head of security saw him approaching and immediately recognized him. He gave Marcus a slight nod, careful not to attract the attention of the reporters.

Marcus returned the gesture and continued walking toward the waiting vehicle. However, before he could take more than a few steps, one of the reporters suddenly noticed him.

“Someone is coming out!”

Several cameras immediately turned in his direction. Within seconds, the reporters rushed toward Marcus and surrounded him, blocking his path.

“Who are you?”

“How do you know Ms. Julia?”

“Are you a friend of hers?”

“Why are you coming out of her house?”

Marcus stopped and looked around at the sea of cameras and microphones, He had no intention of answering any of them, but the reporters continued pressing forward.

One reporter raised his microphone.

“Sir, are you involved with Julia? What is your relationship with her?”

Marcus finally sighed. He decided to use this opportunity to shift the media focus.

“She is my fiancée.”

The moment he said it, the reporters erupted with excitement. Several cameras immediately moved closer, while others began shouting questions over one another.

“Your fiancée?”

“When did you become engaged?”

“Were you planning to get married?”

Marcus remained calm despite the growing crowd.

“Yes. We are engaged, and we are planning our wedding. I have known Julia for a long time, and I know the kind of person she is.”

A reporter immediately interrupted him.

“But are you not hurt by what happened? The pictures appear to show that she was sleeping with another man, and that man is the Senate President.”

Marcus’s expression hardened.

“Watch what you say.

The reporter fell silent for a moment.

“She is my fiancée,” Marcus continued firmly. “I know her better than any of you. I know what she would and

would not do. Julia is innocent, and she did not have an affair with the Senate President.”

Another reporter quickly pushed his microphone forward.

“But there are pictures. There are reports, and several sources are claiming that she had been receiving expensive gifts from him. How can you simply dismiss all of that?”

“Because I know her, she can never do that, The entire thing was arranged to frame her.”

The reporters immediately began shouting again.

“Are you accusing someone of fabricating the evidence?”

“Do you have proof?”

“Can you prove that those pictures were manipulated?”

Marcus looked directly into one of the cameras.

“I will find out who did this.”

His voice became colder.

“And when I do, everyone will know the truth. My fiancée would never do something like that, and I will not stand here while people destroy her reputation based on something that was deliberately created to make her look guilty.”

He was so passionate with it, and everyone was quiet for some moment, just then, he started walking away.

The reporters followed him for several meters, continuing to throw questions at him, but Marcus ignored them. Eventually, he reached the waiting car and opened the door.

He stepped inside.

Natalie was already sitting in the back seat.

She looked at him seriously. “That was quite a statement.”

Marcus nodded, then looked at Natalie.

“Have you found out anything? What about the Senate President?”

Natalie sighed.

“Mr. Adam is still unavailable. I have been looking for him everywhere, but I still haven’t been able to get in touch with him.”

Marcus’s expression became serious. “And the pictures?”

Natalie hesitated before answering.

“I checked them thoroughly. I ran the images through several forensic checks to determine whether they had been manipulated.”

She looked at Marcus. “They are completely authentic.”

Marcus’s expression changed.

“Authentic?”

Natalie nodded.

One hundred percent. There is no obvious evidence of editing, face-swapping, or digital manipulation. Julia and Mr. Adam really appear to have been in the same bed.”

She shook her head in disbelief.

Marcus sighed and stated. “I know Julia. She would never do something like that. Then whoever planned this was very thorough.”

“Exactly,” Natalie replied. “And it gets worse.”

Marcus looked at her.

“I checked the hotel’s CCTV footage and Julia really walked into the hotel herself. She wasn’t dragged inside or forced into the building. She went there to meet Mr. Adam.”

Marcus frowned deeply. “That doesn’t make sense. she was drugged. even if she went, she must have her reason, not this!. ”

“I know.”

Marcus then stated. “Where should we start?”

Natalie answered immediately. “Mr. Adam. He is the key to all of this”.
