been like that growing up, possessing the traits of someone domineering. However, this trait has been amped up as of late.”“I see.” Winnie arched her brow and went on with her interrogation of Xavier. “What if both Josiah and I were in cahoots and had gotten our hands on some illegal drugs?”Furrowing his brows, Xavier took a few moments to contemplate it but put on a sinister smirk afterward.“So what? You’re innocent to me as long as you claim to be. I find in the two of you my friend and my woman respectively, so I will not let such a predicament befall you two. Therefore, make sure everything goes according to plan at the press conference later on, understand?”Josiah was touched by his words. “And here I am assuming you’ve forgotten all about me ever since you got yourself a girlfriend!”Xavier’s expression changed in an instant. “But you have to make sure to stay away from my Dumbo!”Winnie did not say anything. Here we go again.Soon, Louis came with the employees from the Public Relations Department.The team leader was in charge of drafting a speech for Winnie, while a managerial staff came to report the results of his investigation. “Mr. Fairchild, Mrs. Fairchild, according to the URL and public social media account ID that Mr. Tanser provided, we have dug up the mastermind behind the incident. If we’re not mistaken, these are the two studios behind it. After a detailed investigation, it was found that both studios have been dormant for about a year.

With his mouth agape, he was not sure what to say at that moment.However, he could not remain silent in the face of the CEO’s question, so he turned to Louis, who was standing at the side, with a pleading look.Having noticed the manager’s plea for help, Louis spoke up in response to Xavier’s question.“Mr. Fairchild, we discovered that the celebrity is none other than your younger cousin, Nate Fraser.”“Nate?” Xavier wore a deep frown, apparently perplexed by the situation.Meanwhile, Winnie, given her retentive memory, instantly recalled information about Nate the moment Louis made mention of Nate being Xavier’s cousin.She chuckled softly. “I see. I get what’s going on now.”“What do you get?” With a segment of his memory gone, Xavier could hardly piece things together. “Did you offend him? How could this be? You never even crossed paths with each other.”“They had.” Josiah had also connected the dots. “Although they had never interacted directly with each other, they had indirect contact.”“Have you also figured things out?” Xavier felt as if his head was getting dizzy.“Yeah. It was because of Yulissa’s death. To be frank, back when you, Yulissa, and Nate were in a love triangle, Nate was already an avid fan of Yulissa’s. Nearing the end of it, you and Nate
