Thaddeus was taken aback, his intended comforting hands awkwardly hanging in mid–air.

“I noticed you seemed distressed. I just wanted to…”

“Let me say it again. My affairs are none of your business!”

Evadne had no mood for any more male drama. She slipped past him, phone in hand and dashed off.

With a loud thud, the door to the room closed.

Thaddeus felt as though the warmth he had just experienced had suddenly evaporated. Everything that had just happened seemed like a beautiful, colourful bubble that had slowly risen into the sky only to be ruthlessly popped by her.

The antique he had gifted her, worth a small fortune, she had left behind.

In Evadne’s eyes, her family was the most important thing and everything else was inferior.

Thaddeus felt a pang of sorrow, his heart aching in his chest.

But now was not the time for sentimentality. He quickly reacted, striding out of the room.

“Mr. Thaddeus! I just saw Mrs. Abernathy storm off. Who upset her? Gordon asked, worried and slightly accusatory.

After all, Thaddeus used to have a mouth as foul as a decade–old outhouse!

“Myra is in trouble.” Thaddeus replied, his gaze heavy.

“What? That explains the commotion I heard earlier!”

Gordon quickly pulled out his phone, his thumbs flying across the screen.

Suddenly his brows furrowed, “Mr. Thaddeus, look at this!”

Thaddeus lowered his gaze to the video playing on Gordon’s phone.

In an instant, his handsome face tightened, and he snatched the phone from Gordon.

The video was from many years ago, the pixel quality wasn’t great but one could clearly see Myra onstage, hand covering her lower body as fluid ran down her slender legs.

The audience below watched her, gasping in surprise!

Multiple cameras, both photo and video, were flashing relentlessly, the bright lights almost seemed to swallow Myra whole! “My mom was Myra’s biggest fan. She told me about how Myra’s career ended in scandal due to drug allegations, and, and how she wet herself during a performance!”

Gordon couldn’t bear to watch the video, “Back in the day, the internet wasn’t as developed and phones didn’t have video capabilities, so the news didn’t spread as quickly. But my mom loved Myra so much she had been camped out by the TV, so she saw it all happen!”

As Thaddeus listened, he felt a pang of sympathy.

Imagine a woman in her prime, adored by all, wetting herself in such an important event. It was worse than death!

“Later, I heard from my mom that the next day, all the newspaper headlines were about Myra’s scandal. It was everywhere and you could pick one up just by stepping outside. But within a few hours, those newspapers and magazines disappeared! Someone had taken them, and they were nowhere to be found!”

Thaddeus narrowed his eyes, understanding.
