Heartstrings on Fire novel Chapter 140

The press conference was held in the meeting room, and Agnes purposely arrived a bit late.

By now, many reporters had already gathered there.

The interview hadn't even started, and everyone was already chit-chatting.

"Where's Mamie? I thought she'd be here."

"This time, Mamie really lost face. She just got engaged not long ago, and her fiancé is now involved in a scandal with a newbie in the entertainment industry."

"You guys are just too naive. Which man in the entertainment circle doesn't have a few lovers? Maybe Mamie just chose to look the other way. As long as she can hold onto the title of Mrs. Whitfield, what harm can these rumors do?"

"But Mamie is indeed awesome. She managed to get the Tim Group CEO to clear up the rumors. It seems he really cares about her."

Jared sat in the chairman's seat, his gaze fixed on the door as if waiting for something.

The moment Agnes appeared, Jared's expression shifted slightly.

He couldn't be waiting for her, could he? Agnes thought gloomily.

Yes, how was she supposed to sign the divorce agreement if she didn't show up?

All the cameras were ready.

Mr. Whitfield might not be a figure in the entertainment industry, but because of his background, he has always been the focus of attention.

Especially it's rumored that he is Mamie's fiancé.

This incident has stirred up unprecedented attention in the entertainment circle.

At this moment, Jared's secretary, Leo, stood up and said, "Everyone quiet down. The clarification press conference will now begin. Mr. Whitfield has something to say."

The meeting room instantly fell silent.

Reporters swarmed around.

Jared slowly removed his glasses, stood up, and began, "Recently, there have been a lot of rumors about me and Agnes..."

A reporter suddenly asked, "Mr. Whitfield, what is your relationship with Agnes? Is she truly your mistress, as the rumors suggest?"

Seeing one reporter ask a question, the others couldn't help but follow suit, throwing out one prickly question after another.

"Mr. Whitfield, does Mamie know about your relationship?"

"We heard that Agnes knocked on your door in the middle of the night. Is that true?"

"As the lead actress in the new drama 'The Magical Romance of Cinderella', there have been rumors that Agnes got the role through unfair means. Are you involved?"

One question after another was hurled out.

Jared coldly said, "Enough!"

The venue once again fell into silence.

Jared spoke icily, "Zoe chose Agnes at the audition. She didn't get the role through any unfair means. I don't think anyone in this circle would dare to act unfairly towards my wife, would they?"
