We Are Not Getting Remarried: Show Yourself Out

CHAPTER 1269 YOU’RE THE ONLY HOPE FOR US

"Linda, if this rumor spreads, I may have to leave the Benett Corporation. Then, our chance of making a comeback will be futile," said Norman.

Linda was torn, feeling powerless. "Dad, I can't do anything. I can't do anything I want or have any real authority. I'm just a figurehead..."

Norman sighed, unsure of what to say. He knew his daughter was in a tough spot but couldn't let this trending search continue indefinitely. If it persisted, his reputation would be in tatters, and he would be estranged from the company.

"Sigh..." Norman looked anguished, not wanting to end the call.

Linda also heaved a sigh and said, "Dad, I'll do my utmost to help. I'll plead with them again. But, are you sure you didn't cheat on Mom and me?"

"Of course not!" Norman said firmly.

Linda was still worried and said, "Dad, things have gotten this far. Please tell me the truth. You're still my father, no matter what happens. If you don't tell me the truth now, things may escalate beyond control."

Linda wanted to know the truth. She had suspicions about her father but couldn't believe it because of their close father-daughter relationship. She just wanted to put her doubts to rest.

Norman's expression changed slightly, but he quickly said, "Linda, you must believe me. I didn't do anything wrong. I only have one daughter, and that's you. You have to find a way to help me."

Linda felt somewhat relieved after hearing Norman's reassurance. She immediately said, "Dad, I feel better now that you've said that. They always say the truth will always prevail. They can't do anything to us if we've done nothing wrong. We could even do a DNA test to prove our innocence!"

Norman was stunned by Linda's suggestion.

No way. I'll get busted if I agree to take a DNA test.

He quickly vetoed her idea, "No, Linda, that's a bad idea. You know how Elisa operates. We can't give her any opportunity to twist the truth."

Moreover, regardless of whether or not he felt guilty, being upright and self-assured was impossible with Elisa in the picture.

Linda sighed and said, "Ugh... d*mn that b*tch! I wish she would disappear!"
