Chapter 89 Viral Tweet
The streamer said to her livestream enviously, "Did you see that? That couple is so sweet."
"I saw it, I saw it. I'm almost full from all the sweetness."
"ChiliPepper, hurry up and find a boyfriend as handsome as that guy. That way, you don't have to be envious of them."
"Is the top comment serious? If ChiliPepper could find a boyfriend, she wouldn't be single until now!"
The streamer ChiliPepper was both amused and angry at her fans' teasing. "Keep this up and I won't show you guys that pretty couple anymore."
"No no no, we'll stop." The fans hurriedly surrendered.
ChiliPepper snorted smugly and did not move the camera away. She continued to aim the camera at Sydney and Julien.
Kate was also a fan of ChiliPepper. She learned many of her makeup techniques from ChiliPepper's livestreams.
She did not expect to see Sydney and Julien in ChiliPepper's livestream now.
"Oh no, I have to tell Lyra!" Kate put down her tablet, picked up her phone, and called Lyra.
Lyra was sitting in front of the vanity putting on a mask. When she saw the caller ID, she said in a gentle voice, "Kate, what's up?"
"Lyra, hurry up and click on the livestream link I sent you." Kate quickly urged.
Lyra tidied up the edges of the mask on her face." What's going on?"
"Ugh, it's Sydney. She's seducing President Flint again!"
"What did you say?" Lyra's eyes widened as she ripped the mask off her face.
Kate huffed in exasperation. "She's so shameless. She already divorced President Flint and has a boyfriend now, but she's still pestering President Flint. She even followed him to the stadium."
Lyra realized that Sydney was in the stadium with Julien, watching Jayden's basketball match.
It was normal for Julien to go to the game. After all, Jayden was his brother.
However, why did Sydney go? She was bullied by Jayden in the Flint residence for the past six years. Logically, there was no way she would go support Jayden. Was what Kate said true? Did she go there to pester Julien?
Lyra bit her lower lip at the thought and quickly went to her computer. She clicked on the link sent by Kate.
Her eyes instantly clouded over when she saw the image of Sydney and Julien sitting together on the livestream.
"Lyra, are you still there?" Kate asked.
Lyra's eyes flashed slightly. She put away her terrible gaze and forced herself to reply, "I'm still here..."
Kate became even more furious when she heard the sadness in Lyra's tone. "Lyra, that woman clearly doesn't care about your feelings at all. We can't let her get away with this. Let's go to the stadium now to settle the score with her!"
"No, Kate. We don't have tickets, so we can't get in." Lyra lowered her head, looking like she was about to cry but pretending to stay strong. "Besides, maybe we misunderstood and Ms. Raines is only there to watch the game."
"We misunderstood? Lyra, you're just too kind. You always look at the good in people." Kate stomped her foot in rage. "You didn't see it, but Sydney deliberately leaned into President Flint's arms earlier."
"What?" Lyra's face changed. "Ms. Raines did that?"
"Yeah, that's why I said we can't let her get away with this."
Lyra sobbed sadly. "But what can I do? I promised Julien that I won't hurt Ms. Raines."
"Are you planning to let it go just like that?" Kate was reluctant.
Lyra cried even more sadly. "Ms. Raines must be doing this as revenge. I caused her to divorce Julien because I woke up, so I owe it to her. Kate, let's just pretend that we don't know anything."
Then, she hung up the call.
Kate punched the bed in anger.
Lyra owed Sydney?
It was clearly Sydney who forced President Flint to marry her that year even though he was already with Lyra back then. Ultimately, it was Sydney who owed Lyra instead.
"Humph. Lyra is letting you go, but I won't. Shameless women like you who like to interfere with other people's relationships deserve to be criticized by the public."
Kate muttered with a sinister expression while clicking into her Twitter. She used her alternate account to post a Tweet: [Six years ago, a certain woman came between President Flint and the daughter of the Madden family. She took advantage of Ms. Madden's car accident and married into the Flint family. Six years later, Ms. Madden woke up and the woman was kicked out of the Flint family after being divorced. However, she still didn't give up pestering President Flint and continues to be shameless.]
After typing these lines, Kate added a few pictures, all of which were screenshots of Sydney and Julien from the livestream lobby.
The most conspicuous one was of Sydney jumping into Julien's arms, and Julien grabbing her shoulders with both hands.
The angle of this picture was very subtle, giving people the impression that Sydney took the initiative to lunge toward Julien's arms instead of being knocked over.
Julien's hands also did not look like he was helping her to stabilize her body, but rather like he was pushing her away. His tightly furrowed brows cemented that image even further.
Kate looked at her masterpiece and smiled in satisfaction. Then, she paid a group of people to make comments and generate discussion regarding the topic, causing her tweet to go viral.
Soon, the tweet exploded on the Internet, swiftly climbing to the top of the trending topics. Many netizens recognized Sydney and Julien, and all kinds of comments and messages flew around.
"Geez, I told you I thought they looked familiar when I watched the live broadcast. It's the president of Flint Corporation and the vice president of Skylight Corporation. That female vice president was famous online some time ago."
"I also recognize them. Sydney Raines is dating the president of Chase Corporation, but she's still pestering her ex-husband? She's so shameless and disgusting."
"You think that's disgusting? Didn't you read the tweet? This woman took advantage of Ms. Madden's car accident six years ago to marry President Flint, and she still hasn't given up after the divorce. I feel sorry for Ms. Madden and President Chase."
The netizens tagged Lyra and Luke.
Some people even directly asked Luke how it felt to be cheated on.
Luke was in a meeting when he learned of this matter. He suspended the meeting on the spot and left the conference room with a surly face.
"Find out who's spreading these rumors online!" Luke tugged his tie and ordered furiously.
"Understood," the assistant behind him responded.
Luke pushed open his office door. "Suppress the hype online as well."
"President Chase, I'm afraid that won't be easy. We don't have that much power," the assistant said awkwardly.
Luke rolled his eyes. "Do you think I don't know that? Just suppress it as much as possible."
"Yes sir!" The assistant nodded and went out.
Luke took out his phone and dialed Sydney's number.
Sydney felt her phone vibrating in her bag. When she looked down to see that it was from Luke, she moved to answer the call.
Suddenly, she heard a panicked cry and Jayden's urgent shout. "Sydney, watch out! Get out of the way!"
What was happening?
Sydney was a little confused and raised her head to see what was going on. Unexpectedly, an orange basketball was flying straight at her.
Her face turned pale.
When the basketball was just about to hit her head, a figure suddenly stepped in front of her and blocked the flying ball for her.
"Urk..." Julien let out a muffled grunt of pain as his handsome face wrinkled. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Sydney, who was hiding in his arms, looked at him with a complicated expression. "You..."
"Julien, are you okay?" She was interrupted by Jayden who came running before she finished her sentence.
