“She's fallen ill, Jessica is sick, and you didn't even know! I could kill you for this, you good-for-nothing!” Keanu responded, overcome with rage. Aliya stood there, shocked to her core. “Jessica's parents are gone, and she only has you left. And yet, you could let her fall ill under your care. You're a beast!” Aliya had also slapped William, which had nearly knocked him off his feet in anger. Under the public gaze, the famous actor was left in a pitiful state, receiving a beating from his parents. Connor, in a state of panic, rushed forward to intervene, desperate to prevent the situation from worsening. He pleaded with the director and producer to stop the live broadcast. Meanwhile, the director and producer had given up. Things had already come to this point, so they might as well capitalize on the popularity and viewership. It also offered them an opportunity to clear their names from the inadvertent suspicion of being accomplices. In their view, William had completely messed up this time. “I don't know, I really don't know, she didn't tell me...” William murmured in disbelief. Upon hearing these words, both Isabella and Christopher, who were watching the drama from the side, were dumbfounded. At this point, shirking responsibility would be utterly shameless, wouldn't it? With a cold laugh, Christopher said, “It seems our earlier performance was all for nothing.” Everyone began to recall what happened, and a barrage of insults started pouring into the comments. William hadn't even hung up his phone when he heard another voice coming through from the other end. To his surprise, it was Evian. Clearly, both the lawyer and Evian were outside the operating room.“Keanu, are you still intending to slander the victim at this point? While Ms. Elmore was in the hospital, we urged her to inform her family. She made a phone call to you right in front of our medical staff. Have you forgotten how you responded?” It seemed as though something had occurred to William, causing his breath to hitch. “You said she was just putting on an act to deceive you, and you grew tired of her cursing her own health out of jealousy and rivalry,” Evian remarked nonchalantly. Panic overwhelmed William as if he couldn't come to terms with the mistake he'd made. Instinctively, he started making excuses. “We were arguing at that time, I genuinely thought she was just speaking without thinking. Why didn't she say anything afterward? If she had shown me the report, if only...” “Being repeatedly questioned about your illness by the person closest to you... Did Ms. Elmore often lie to you in the past?” Upon hearing the skepticism over the phone, Keanu couldn't help but cry out, “How could that be possible? Jessica was never that kind of person.” Aliya pounded on William's chest, exclaiming, “How did you become like this? Don't you recognize Jessica anymore? No, it's us who don't recognize you anymore!” William felt his mind going blank. “Moreover, let's not even mention the scandal that erupted the next day when you were photographed accompanying Ms. Jennie Woods to the hospital because she sprained her ankle. I suppose Ms. Jessica Elmore didn't feel the need to tell you about this, did she?” Evian continued to add fuel to the fire. All colors completely drained from William's face. Jennie's face had turned deathly pale. Isabella couldn't help but seize the opportunity to mock, “Speaking of which, Jessica has been sick for almost three months now. The last time I saw her when she was buying a dress, she looked abnormally thin and ill. How is it that the great actor, William, hasn't seen his own wife in three months, always accompanying someone else?”Christopher sneered, “Maybe he's just shortsighted, only able to see other women in fear and pain?” “Maybe it really was a vision problem. After all, he thought the leaked photos from the hospital were fake. He couldn't even tell that it was a genuine illness.” Isabella pretended to whisper to Christopher, but her voice was fully broadcasted. William nearly collapsed, barely able to stand. His lips quivered as if he wanted to deny something, but all he could do was shake his head frantically. His expression was one of intense pain, yet it didn't elicit sympathy from anyone. Due to the detailed revelations, all the audience both offline and online felt utterly blown away. The more they thought about it, the more it made them feel sick to their stomachs. Netizen Q: Initially, I thought I was indulging in candy, only to realize I was consuming filth. I felt like throwing up. Netizen R: Where are those people who were infatuated with William, obsessed with shipping the celebrity couple, and cursed the wife? Come out, take your punishment, and apologize! Netizen S: I should apologize first. I'm sorry, it's my fault for not seeing people for who they truly are. I can't believe I supported such a worthless man and a despicable woman. I can't even begin to imagine how wrong I've been. I suppose I deserved it! Netizen T: Shameless couple! Get out of the entertainment industry! The lawyer cleared his throat, maintaining his professionalism and said, “So, Mr. Sawyer, regarding your request, I have completed it. I'll hang up now...” Suddenly, it was as if William had awakened from a dream. “No, where are you all? I need to be there for her. How could she undergo surgery alone? I'll accompany her. And... we are not divorced. I never agreed to it, it's not true!” Tears rushed from William's eyes as if he was on the brink of collapse. Indeed, some things were only truly feared when they were on the verge of being lost. Netizen U: Is he trying to act affectionate now? I hope he's not planning to pester Jessica again. “Mr. Sawyer,” the lawyer stated sternly over the phone, “I must emphasize once again, regardless of your true intentions, or any potential future maneuvers, the document holds legal standing. It was you who signed it first and instructed me to deliver it to Ms. Elmore. Therefore, you have handed over the decision of divorce to Ms. Elmore, and she has chosen to divorce.” With that, the lawyer promptly ended the call. Netizen V: I can't help but laugh. William actually planned to fake a divorce with his own wife, just to clear his and Jennie's names. Was he not thinking straight? What was he thinking? Netizen W: The question was, why was William so confident? How could he believe his wife would agree to such a preposterous matter? Netizen X: I think he's been completely bewitched by that mistress, to the point of losing his logic. The mockery toward William came in waves, one after another, making the big screen unbearable to watch. In the end, it was the overly grief-stricken Keanu and Aliya who came to their senses. Filled with rage, they forcefully escorted William away. Once William had left, the screen was filled with live comments saying: The mistress has no shame! It was too much for Jennie. Unable to bear it any longer, she burst into tears and ran off the stage. Before the final voting had even commenced, only Team A-list remained on the stage, confidently securing their victory in the first face-off. After returning home, Isabella and the Quirk family couldn't help but continue to keep tabs on the online gossip. Upon seeing everyone uncover more evidence of the inappropriate interactions between William and Jennie, yet they still had the audacity to deny their infidelity, Isabella couldn't help but admire their nerve.Before drifting off to sleep, two pieces of news came to light. The first was that Jessica's surgery had concluded, but she had yet to regain consciousness. The second was that Keanu and Aliya, along with William, had located the hospital. However, due to the absence of any legal ties, the hospital didn't permit them to stay by her side. Hence, they could only wait outside the hospital. Secondly, the higher-ups released an announcement. William and Jennie, due to this slander incident, lost their moral standing, causing a terrible influence. They were singled out for criticism, and all their endorsements and collaborations were terminated overnight. Their posts were deleted, and their once cherished work was bombarded with negative comments by netizens, filled with criticisms, eventually forcing them to temporarily remove it from the platform. William and Jennie had now become like outcasts, universally scorned, with no chance of redemption in sight. Many people online were sending their well-wishes to Jessica, hoping for her speedy recovery so she could restart her life anew. Three days later, Isabella was luxuriating in a lazy sleep. This was the much-anticipated three-day break she had secured after finishing her program, a period when she was exempted from attending classes at the studio. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Barely awake, Isabella opened the door to find Rosalie and Selena anxiously standing at the entrance. “Just now, Evian mentioned in the group chat, Jessica has woken up.” Isabella suddenly jolted awake, expressing with excitement, “That's fantastic, indeed good deeds are rewarded.” However, Selena and Rosalie seemed overly excited, didn't they? They were even concerned that she might miss out if she was asleep, so they went out of their way to wake her up. They usually didn't care what time Isabella woke up. “But... she has lost her memory,” Selena said, her voice trembling. Isabella was stunned.“Huh?”
