Nicholas’ icy gaze raked across everyone there. Dressed in a black suit, he was almost mercilessly impassive with a bloodthirsty sternness in his eyes. Those who stood around him were his underlings with actual guns and bullets. No entertainment company boss in Centrolis dared to have a lineup like that thus far. “Nothing happened between Ms. Adams and me,” Nicholas said strictly. “Before that grand event, I barely knew her. I felt weak after drinking the alcohol she passed me. Ha, I’ll be consulting my lawyer about this. If she spiked my drink, I must press charges!” A reckless reporter mocked him. “But Mr. Thompson, how can you prove that nothing happened between the two of you?” Nicholas’ expression was dark, while Ian could not hold himself back. He pulled a pistol out of his pocket, but Nicholas noticed it and stopped him with his eyes. “Mr. Thompson, please don’t avoid the question with silence.” Nicholas took a deep breath and smiled at the provocative reporter. “Don’t worry. I’ll answer each of your questions without missing any.” The reporter merely snickered. “Firstly, why did I drag it until now to explain? Because my wife had a miscarriage. The brewing of this incident had a great impact on her health. I had to leave work and make those who hurt my wife pay. “And your question.” Nicholas looked at that reporter. “How can I prove it?” Everyone glanced at Nicholas curiously. He pulled out a medical certificate. What he was about to say was hard to be spoken. The thin certificate was clenched in his hand and trembled lightly. “It’s because I drank. So nothing happened between us.” “Hah, isn’t this too perfunctory!?” “This is the certificate of diagnosis. The doctor can prove it. I have a dysfunction after drinking!” Those who were present were shocked. The same reporter asked again, “Mr. Thompson, can you explain what you mean by a dysfunction?” “You don’t know?” Nicholas arched his brow. “You’re a f*cking man too, and you don’t know!?” Nicholas’ roar intimidated the press, and everyone fell silent. Despite that, the comments in the live stream were flying in and almost took up the whole screen. “I, for this whole life, can’t get it up for all the women in the world except my wife! You f*cking understand it now!?” Cordelia and Zephyr could not see Nicholas’ expression, but they saw the comments flooding the screen. They were all supportive of Nicholas. [Good job, Mr. Thompson!] [This is a true man, admitting something like this in public to protect his wife!] [I support Mr. Thompson. I’m only watching Sol Entertainment’s production from now on!] Cordelia and Zephyr met eyes and exchanged smiles. Both the live scene and the live stream were lively. After Nicholas roared, Ian and the others threw the provocative reporter out. One could guess what happened to the reporter next. Cordelia returned the phone to Robert and sighed as if talking to herself, “I didn’t expect Nicholas to do such a touching thing when he looks quite careless!” “You’re moved so easily?” Zephyr hugged her. “I did a lot of things for you too. Have you been moved?” She purposely teased him. “You’ve never said anything like Nicholas did!” “That’s because I don’t have a dysfunction!” Zephyr looked serious as he spoke next to her ear.

suddenly rang. “What’s the matter? Robert? Aren’t you usually calm and collected? Why are you running so fast today!?” “Ah, Madam Baker!” Robert quickly addressed the woman. He had run into Janine, who was coming in during his frantic escape just now. He apologized and left just as swiftly, not wanting to be tactless. In spite of it… “Hey, why are you running away? Didn’t you see I have bags with me? Help me carry them!” Janine walked in with a huff. “Robert’s spoiled by the Hamertons!” She glared at Zephyr. “He’s getting slower now!” Zephyr smiled and took over what she held. “What brings you here, mom?” “I miss Cordelia!” Janine answered without thinking. Zephyr was rendered speechless. If he remembered correctly, the two of them had just worked in the office together yesterday. “Aunt Janine!” Cordelia was happy to see her and led her into the house. “Oh yeah, I’ve just finished a few artist development plans and wanted you to go through them!” “You have the day off today, right? Let’s not talk about work.” Janine smiled. “Cordelia, you usually don’t even have time to shop, and you just want to sleep at home when you get a break. I feel bad about it. “Here!” She pointed at all the bags. “I bought you these, but I don’t know if you like them or not. Go have a look!” Zephyr was already checking out the pile of

bat fell to the floor with a clank. Cordelia chuckled and turned to Janine. “Aunt Janine, I feel bad that you spent so much.” “You deserve all these!” Janine’s eyes were crescent-shaped from how much she was beaming. “Right, pick something out of the clothes and jewelry. Put them on this weekend and go to a charity auction with
