The Heiress‘ Return & Revenge
Chapter 63 Unexpected Ruthlessness.
In another car.
Leon stared intently at Simone’s updated Facebook post, his face filled with disbelief.
Not only did Simone publicly announce their breakup on Facebook, but she also recorded their conversation from that day.
And now she had posted it without any mercy.
Did she already anticipate this and wanted to protect herself? This realization was difficult for him to accept, and it caused a deep pain in his heart.
How could this happen? We were fine before; how did it turn into this? Just then, his phone suddenly rang.
Seeing that it was his manager, Elin, he answered, “What’s up?”
Elin Harmon’s voice carried a rare sharpness and urgency. “Have you seen Simone’s Facebook post? You’re being criticized by many people for your breakup.”
Leon remained silent for a moment before saying, “Yes, I’ve seen it.”
Elin was furious, “Is Simone crazy? She didn’t even discuss it with you and just stabbed you in the back like this.
This sudden turn of events caught us off guard.”
Just when Leon had posted on Facebook that they were still together, Simone revealed that they had
already broken up.
And she even had recorded evidence to prove it.
It made it impossible for them to refute and say that Simone had faked the breakup, or that she was just seeking attention.
Leon rubbed his temples with his hand, “I didn’t expect her to be so ruthless.”
She deliberately wanted to humiliate him, and the timing was just perfect.
She must have planned it all.
Elin asked angrily, “Why didn’t you tell me about your breakup with Simone before?” If Leon had told her before appearing on the variety show, she could have prepared earlier.
Leon held the phone to his ear.
Leaning back in his chair with a sense of despair, he said, “I didn’t agree to break up with her before.
I thought she was just throwing a tantrum, and we would reconcile.”
He had never considered breaking up with Simone, so he didn’t tell anyone.

Elin took a deep breath, “We need to react immediately now. Otherwise, everyone’s going to think you’re a cheater.”
She had already disagreed with Leon’s collaboration with Titus before.
As expected, problems arose.
Now she not only disliked Simone even more but also started to dislike Jodie.
And the dislike surpassed her annoyance toward Simone.
After all, she had been hiding a secret that she dared not reveal–she liked Leon.
Leon asked. “How will we deal with this?”
Elin countered. “You tell me first, is Jodie your secret lover? Is she the one you truly like?” She suppressed her bitterness and added, “I need to know. Only then can I work with the PR team to come up with a plan for you.”
Leon denied without hesitation. “There’s no secret lover. It was just something Simone said in anger.
She misunderstood me.”
All along, the only person he liked was Simone.
He protected and treated Jodie well for other reasons, not because she was his new love interest.
He didn’t expect Simone to have such a deep misunderstanding about his relations with Jodie.
So, although it pained him, he believed that as long as he explained things clearly to Simone, they could reconcile.
Elin was skeptical. “If that’s the case, then post another Facebook update denying that Jodie’s your secret lover and that you liked her.
“Say that you and Jodie’s brother are childhood friends, and that’s why you’re helping to take care of
her.
We need to clear up the rumors about you two–timing.”
Otherwise, it would greatly affect his reputation, as some fans have already unfollowed him because of this.
Leon thought for a moment, “Alright, I’ll post it”
This way, he could not only prove to Simone and others that he and Jodie were innocent.
It would also prevent Jodie from being dragged into this.
After saying a few more words, he hung up the phone.
And then posted another update on Facebook.
Leony: I have no secret lover. The only one I like is Simone,
Her brother is my childhood friend, and I’m taking care of her because of that trust.
Titus told his PR team to cooperate.
As a result, Leon’s fans quickly went to Simone’s Facebook page and asked her to stop spreading rumors and inciting hatred.
Since they had already broken up, a decisive counterattack was the way to go.
The more she acted this way, the more people would appreciate and like her.
They were thinking about how to add fuel to the fire when they saw Leon’s new Facebook update.
Simone: “Jodie was just the trigger. I broke up with him because Leon wasn’t worth it.
She had always agreed with the philosophy of an eye for an eye!
