"Shane still hadn't ended things with Jenny, but he was already hooking up with Sasha! He even pushed Jenny to call it off so he could be with Sasha!"
The reporter spread the gossip along with pictures online. As soon as people saw the posts, they began calling Shane a jerk and tagging Sasha as the other woman, hurling insults at her.
Yvonne jumped in, too, claiming Sasha had once pushed Shane to go after her, saying they were both players who liked to mess with people's feelings. The crowd went wild when Yvonne stepped up as a witness, and they started hurling insults nonstop.

Carlisle took a quick look at the documents and immediately understood why Zane had asked them to review them.
"I'm assuming one of these proposals is for me and the other's for Mr. Weston," he said.
Douglas skimmed through it. "Exactly."
"With all this in mind, it doesn't look like the Winslows and the Westons will be able to keep working together."
Shane didn't get it. "Why not?"
Carlisle didn't look impressed. "We've got plenty of proposals, and each one takes time and resources. So, you two will need to work on them separately."
Sasha shrugged. "That works for me."
"Once we get back, I'll walk you through everything and show you how to get things rolling," Douglas said.
