Chapter 167 Shifting Perspectives
In the tranquil embrace of an online community, the unexpected disclosure of Miles‘ orientation reverberated widely, catching many off guard.
“Wait, Miles is gay? And he has a boyfriend? So, there’s probably no romantic involvement between him and Kate.”
“Absolutely none! Those images they shared–they’ve been twisted beyond recognition. Even the original photos, untampered, reveal a different narrative. It’s clear as day they’re being misrepresented.”
“Rumours hinted that Kate’s ascent in the global design contest stemmed from an improper bond with Miles, but such claims are utterly unfounded.”
“Could it be jealousy at play, seeking to mar the reputations of both Kate and Miles?”
The mood among the online community swiftly shifted. Ultimately, Miles‘ forthright revelation sufficed to dispel any shadow of doubt about his and Kate’s relationship.
The unfounded criticisms directed towards Kate online were effortlessly rebuffed. However, in the same breath, scrutiny now focused on Miles himself.
“Oh dear, so Miles is gay, huh?”
“Hmm, well, it can be controversial in this sphere.”
“Why’d he do it at this particular moment though? I mean him coming out!
“I don’t think he did it per se. Someone leaked the intel. He just decided to say f*ck it and face it head on. Yeah, gays aren’t that many here at home, but you see them everywhere overseas.”
“Love is love, people. No war, just peace.”
The currents of online discourse veered swiftly from Kate to Miles.
Miles‘ steady voice resonated from the other end, “Muse, fret not for me. My bond with Kyle shall soon be unveiled. It is time he received the recognition he is due.”
Kate sensed a stirring within her heart. With eyes slightly damp, she found her voice after a lingering silence, sofily speaking, “Congratulations to you. both.”
Miles chuckled warmly. “Muse, remind Davison to reward me handsomely when the moment. arrives!”
