The Transactional Marriage That Imploded novel Chapter 320

At the very end of the bulletin, there was a special commendation thanking Mathis Jagger for his vital cooperation as an entrepreneur during the sting operation.

The moment the news broke, the entire business world exploded.

Mathis Jagger helped the feds take down his future father-in-law? Did that mean his engagement to Cynthia Quinn was completely fake?

If it was fake, he had played the part a little too well—gifting her mansions, massive diamond rings, and elevating her to a social status most people could only dream of.

While the public was locked in heated debates, Dawnstar Capital released its own official PR statement.

It read as follows:

*Mr. Mathis Jagger, Chairman and CEO of our group, has absolutely no romantic relationship with Ms. Cynthia Quinn. All previous interactions were strictly to assist law enforcement. Furthermore, Lamont is not the Chairman's son.*

*The Chairman has been legally married for five years. His wife is Ms. Bianca Baldwin, Technical Director at Stellaride Computing, and they share one daughter.*

*We urge the public and media to cease spreading baseless rumors.*

The moment Dawnstar's statement hit the internet, the public went into an absolute frenzy.

The fans who had been aggressively shipping the "Wildwin" couple were left completely shell-shocked.

"Holy shit, what is happening? They were in an open marriage and now they're clapping back saying they weren't?"

"That kid looks exactly like Mathis, and he's NOT his son? This is absolutely insane!!!"

"Mathis literally claimed Cynthia's kid was his. Did he find out he was being cheated on and just nuke her entire life in revenge?"

"What does Mathis and Bianca's daughter even look like? Watch him drop another statement in a month saying she isn't his either!"

Amidst the wild speculation, Mathis posted a photo on his personal Twitter account. It was a picture of sixteen-year-old Bianca, captioned:

*A single glance, and my heart was sealed for a lifetime.*

*This is what my wife looked like at sixteen. I never fell in love with anyone else. I was never cheated on. And our daughter looks exactly like her mother.*

*She is incredibly cute and beautiful!*

When Milo saw the news, he couldn't help but marvel at Mathis's sheer ruthlessness.

This was a brutal, calculated strike meant to forcefully rip him and Bianca apart.

Thanks to the viral singing video from earlier, Milo was already heavily recognized in public.

Mathis's move was a total checkmate, making it impossible for Milo and Bianca to be seen together in public before her divorce was finalized without sparking a massive scandal.

He was trying to force their relationship to cool off by cutting off their contact.

Marcus Wilder saw the statements too, and he immediately started taking Mathis's morning threats very seriously.

Mathis was even more terrifying than Marcus had realized. The man had endured an undercover operation for over two years, faking every ounce of affection for Cynthia, and even tolerating another man's child calling him father.
