Chapter 1942

No.1

"Then send her another cease and desist letter—make sure the whole company knows."

...

Evelyn's fan group was in despair.

["Those documents must be fake!"]

["Disgusting! Alexander denied everything after getting married, letting a woman take the fall!"]

["I refuse to believe Evelyn would be a mistress. She's being set up!"]

Iris Cooper's call came through.

No.2

"Evelyn... is it true? Did Alexander really marry Isabella?" Her voice trembled.

"No." Evelyn's tone remained calm. "The marriage certificate is forged. The pregnancy records too."

"I'll expose them!"

"Don't." Evelyn cut her off. "I don't care."

Iris froze.

Evelyn opened the fan group chat.

["Thank you all for your concern and support."]

No.3

The moment she posted, the group fell silent.

["First, I was never pregnant—let alone had a miscarriage."]

Her fans finally exhaled in relief.

["Second, I apologize for the recent troubles."]

["Third, I've decided to leave this group."]

The chat erupted instantly.

But without hesitation, Evelyn clicked "Exit Group."

No.4

"Evelyn!" Iris stomped her foot in frustration. "You're breaking their hearts!"

"I won't drag them into this mess." Evelyn's voice softened. "My existence shouldn't hurt anyone."

Hugo's move was vicious.

He wasn't just destroying her reputation—he wanted her indebted to everyone.

"But they enjoy being fans!"

"I don't need that kind of devotion." Evelyn ended the call.

The cease and desist letter lay quietly on her desk.

No.5

Alexander Kingsley's name glared back at her.

This was the second time.

"Evelyn Sinclair, this is for you." The corporate lawyer barged in and slammed a document on her desk. "Alexander Kingsley is suing you for fabricating evidence of your hotel stay together, causing reputational damage to him and Kingsley Group."

The office fell dead silent.

New hires exchanged uneasy glances. Roman Young clenched his fists.

Evelyn picked up the document, fingertips tracing the embossed law firm seal.

"What do you suggest I do?" She leveled the lawyer with an unflinching stare. "Enlighten me."

No.6

The lawyer took an involuntary step back under her gaze.

"Issue a public apology," he said stiffly. "We'll negotiate to keep this out of court. Alexander's legal team—"

"Didn't they lose to me last time?" Evelyn interrupted mildly.

The lawyer's face darkened.

"This is different!" he spat after a pause. "Apologize or resign! Horizon won't tolerate your arrogance!"

"Why should I apologize?" Evelyn's laugh was icy. "HR knows I was interviewing that day. The company booked that hotel. Now you want me to take the fall? Are you blind?"

"Suit yourself!" The lawyer stormed out. "Resign or face termination!"

No.7

The legal notice lay abandoned on the desk.

Evelyn snapped a photo and texted Alexander: 【Your doing?】

No response.

Just like always, the man remained conspicuously absent since yesterday's incident.

The silence shattered when Iris Cooper called. "Evelyn, we've decided to disband the fan club. But we'll always support you."

After hanging up, Evelyn noticed a new hire hovering before her.
