Chapter 205
After he left, Darcy gave a snort, “Ms. Elowen won’t step down that easily. She will definitely have a full–on showdown with Evelyn.”
“Let them fight it out. We’ll just be the bystanders reaping the benefits.” Lily chuckled.
Aurelia sipped her coffee, whispering, “We need to keep an eye on the Marketing Department. We can’t let Mr. Louis stir any trouble behind our backs.”
“Don’t worry. If there’s anything going on in the Marketing Department, Jesper will let me know right away.” Lily assured.
After lunch, they returned to the office, and Aurelia checked her WhatsApp.
The Muse Club group chat was buzzing.
During last night’s Halloween party, Elowen was caught passionately dancing and kissing Mr. Foster, publicly showing Mr. Leopold being cheated.
There were videos for proof.
Aurelia gasped, thinking that Elowen must have been drunk. She knew Elowen’s tolerance to alcohol was
pretty poor.
Despite the CEO’s frequent appearances with Evelyn in public, such outrageous scenes had never occurred before.
That was the cunning side of the CEO. He always kept his affairs discreet, giving him the freedom to deny involvement.
Elowen had definitely dropped a bombshell this time, providing the CEO with another excuse to call off the
engagement.
Just as she was pondering, her phone rang. It was Elowen asking to meet at the cafe downstairs.
By the time Aurelia arrived, Elowen was already there, looking haggard, without any makeup.
“You heard about the party last night, didn’t you?” Elowen asked.
Aurelia nodded, “I saw it in the Muse Club group chat. Were you drunk?”
“If I hadn’t been drunk, could I have been so reckless?”
Elowen scratched her head in frustration. She had been so intoxicated that she mistook Mr. Foster for Leopold. Thankfully, her personal assistant came in time to take her away. Otherwise, she might have lost her chastity.
“What should I do now? Leopold will surely call off the engagement. You need to help me. If I go down, Evelyn will rise, and you’ll go down too.” Elowen said.
Aurelia rubbed her forehead. What could she do? She wasn’t from PR, skilled in managing crises.
“I think you should position yourself as the victim. He was the one who cheated first, his affair with Evelyn broke your heart. At the party, you were ridiculed, and everyone knew about his infidelity. You felt extremely embarrassed and humiliated, which led to you drinking excessively and misidentifying Mr. Foster as the CEO.”
Elowen hung her head in despair, “But what if Leopold refuses to forgive me and insists on calling off the engagement? He’s head over heels for that vixen Evelyn. He can’t wait to call off our engagement and make her his official partner.”

Aurelia stroked her chin, her eyes whirling with thought.
“If he insists on calling off the engagement, you’ll have to push things to the edge and fight for your survival.” “What do you mean?” Elowen asked, her eyebrows furrowing in confusion.
