The pressure from Nash, Ben and Jamie quickly silenced any dissent. No one dared to say another word.

Ben had initially planned the banquet as a way to celebrate Jamie and let everyone see how proud he was of her. Yet, it had unexpectedly turned into fodder for rumors involving him and Nash.

Ben felt genuinely apologetic toward Nash. "I'm really sorry. I didn't expect people to come up with such bizarre ideas."

Nash waved him off, his expression calm. "We've been through worse rumors before. If I got upset over something this trivial, how would I face the real storms in life? Just focus on living well. Those people won't dare talk nonsense again."

Not only had they made the troublemakers apologize publicly, but Nash had also instructed his assistant to deal with the matter privately, ensuring it wouldn't happen again.

Later, as Nash and Nina left the banquet, Nina couldn't resist teasing him. "You know, this isn't the first time people have spread rumors about you and Ben. Honestly, I don't know what goes on in their heads. You're married now, and we have kids. How do they still manage to drag you two into this nonsense?"
