Thomas‘ words instantly froze the atmosphere, both offline and online. No one on the live stream dared to say anything. Everyone was baffled, thinking that they had heard wrongly.
Even Yannie, who was in his arms, thought so too.
She was rooted on the spot for a long time and was unable to believe what she was hearing. She could not believe what was happening. Did Thomas truly know that she had his child, or was he merely trying to help her?
“I–Impossible!”
Wendy was the first one to come to her senses. She rushed toward Thomas like a lunatic as she incredulously hissed, “Thomas, are you mad? Is this worth it for a woman like Yannie? Yannie could earn money for you, but I could do it too! Also, I‘ve been fighting my way through the entertainment industry for many years! Many on the internet wish for us to become a couple.
“As long as you‘re willing to work with me, and as long as you‘re willing to become an onscreen couple with me, I know I‘ll earn more than Yannie ever will! “Why are you ruining your reputation for a woman who had a child? She‘s given birth before, for goodness‘ sake! Even if the child has died, the fact remains!
“You have a bright future going on for you, Thomas. Why do you want to get yourself involved with a woman like that?!”
Every word that came out of Wendy‘s mouth was condescending to Yannie.
However, Yannie‘s struggles were futile.
