Faye Jennings never imagined that Clara Grant’s unexplained leave of absence—which pushed back Faye’s own scenes—was so she could return to the city for a date with Seth Quinn!
’And didn’t she say she didn’t want to go public? Why is she now so brazenly waltzing in and out of the company arm-in-arm with him, eting her parents, and going to his apartnt?’
’All the photos were so clear, too. They were supposedly candid shots, but for them to be that sharp and detailed, soone must have tipped off the reporters about their whereabouts.’
’It must have been Clara Grant!’
’Clara Grant must have deliberately leaked it to the press to expose her relationship with Seth Quinn.’
’She must have found out that I like Seth Quinn, too. She’s declaring war on !’
’Or maybe she knew all along and deliberately held off on revealing it, dragging this out just to humiliate even more.’
’Because on set, everyone was convinced that she, Faye Jennings, was Seth Quinn’s girlfriend—his future wife.’
’And she never directly denied it. In fact, she deliberately created the illusion that she and Seth were intimate!’
’But now, all of a sudden, Clara Grant and Seth Quinn’s relationship was exposed!!!’
’What would everyone think of her now? How would they mock her? How could she ever show her face again?’
Faye Jennings could already picture it: the mont she appeared in public, she’d be t with pointing fingers and rciless ridicule. She’d be torn to shreds by their gossip!
The more Faye Jennings thought about it, the angrier she beca. Her hatred for Clara Grant grew so intense that her body began to tremble.
’Clara Grant must be doing this on purpose. She’s deliberately trying to embarrass , to turn into a laughingstock on set, a joke at Aegis, a joke in the entire entertainnt industry.’
’Maybe she even arranged for Seth Quinn to visit the set that ti. She made everyone think he was there to see , but in the end, he didn’t even wait for my scene before leaving with her—with Clara Grant.’
’Then, when Clara Grant saw that I’d managed to cover things up, she resorted to this more direct, more explosive thod to attack !’
Faye Jennings gritted her teeth, her hands clenched into tight fists. Her teeth felt ready to shatter, and her nails dug into her palms, yet she felt no pain—only a burning hatred for Clara Grant in her heart.
’Clara Grant, I will make you pay for this!’

「anwhile, at the Grant residence」
Cedric Grant was thrilled when he saw the news. ’Even though Seth Quinn hasn’t publicly confird his relationship with Clara Grant, the fact that reporters could publish such intimate photos must an he gave his tacit approval, right?’ he thought.
’Otherwise, for the president of Aegis, if he didn’t want sothing exposed, no reporter would be able to get the story, and none would dare try.’
’This ans the Grant Family can finally latch onto the powerful Quinn Family.’
’It looks like I’ll have to find so ti to visit Skylar Hayes and smooth things over with her and her daughter.’
While Cedric Grant was busy with his self-serving calculations, Yara Jarvis was growing anxious.
"Chloe, now that this thing with Seth Quinn and Clara Grant is public, does that an she might actually marry him? After all, he’s never had a woman by his side, let alone one he’d bring to his company so openly."
"They even went to see Skylar Hayes. Is the next step eting his parents at the Quinn residence? If things keep progressing like this, Clara Grant will marry Seth Quinn sooner or later, won’t she? If she really marries him, do you think your father will..."
Last ti, she had reassured Chloe that as long as Clara Grant didn’t marry Seth Quinn, she couldn’t stir up any real trouble. But now, Yara couldn’t help but worry. There was always a nagging feeling that what had been stolen could never be held securely, that it could slip through her fingers at any mont.
