Before Jenna could even get her phone, however, her pale-faced manager managed to stop her in time while exclaiming, “J-Jenna…! Now isn’t the time for you to go against Young Master Burton…! Remember, that video of you and Keith is the real deal…! That aside, Young Master Burton still has a lot of evidence he could use on you…! The same can’t be said for us!”
“What’s more, since you used Xavia as a scapegoat before this and everyone now knows, you’re at an even greater disadvantage…! I don’t think I have to remind you that Young Master Burton and Lady Burton are extremely intelligent and capable! They’d never allow you to destroy the Burtons’ name…!”
“Also, since Xavia’s willing to pick a fight with you now, she may eventually end up exposing that she’s Maison’s true mother! Should that time come, then you’ll be no better than a stepping stone…!” concluded the manager.
With how much her words made sense, Jenna was finally able to calm down again… True enough, Zivon had sufficient evidence to utterly destroy her name and even send her to jail… If she ran toward the gun that was already pointed toward her, then he’d surely aggravate her charges without mercy…!
In the end, Jenna was prompted to say, “…So… What now? I can’t just retain this terrible reputation and allow Zivon to officially divorce me…!”
After thinking about it for a bit, her manager replied, “…Well… the priority now should be to clear up the misunderstandings and have your image redeemed… Didn’t Young Master Burton want to divorce you peacefully? And we both know that that old lady cares a lot about her family’s name… You could use that to your advantage by…”
It was shortly after the manager whispered something to Jenna when the distraught woman’s face lit up as she exclaimed, “…That… That’s actually a good idea…! Let’s do that, then…!”
It was around one that afternoon when Jenna—who had been laying low up till this point—stepped up onto a grand stage… She had organized a high-profile press conference, so she made sure to have an elegant dress on as she smiled at the crowd, almost as though she was pretending that nothing had ever happened!
Seeing that, several people began yelling, “To think you still have the audacity to organize a press conference!”
“You shouldn’t be allowed to show yourself in public after doing all that!”
