Chapter 125 A married man
Perhaps things would have worked better if Vivian and Rose had coordinated their schemes.
Alas, they did not and instead of going against Liliana together, they sort of ended up going against each other. Well, at least their paid minions had a fierce battle amongst themselves with one side claiming that Jonathan was perhaps married and the other side claiming that Vivian was and had always been the woman in his life.
After an entire day of arguments that had the netizens divided, they concluded that half of their goal had always been the same. Both parties wanted to ruin Liliana and separate her from Jonathan.
And so they both, in the interest of common goals, worked together to paint Liliana as the bitch who dangled with a married Jonathan while still raising children she had borne for someone else.
Rose had very helpfully supplied a picture that showed Jonathan on the altar with a bride whose face was hidden beneath the veil and as she had her head tilted as such she was not at all visible.
‘Oh My God! Jonathan Smith is a married man.’
‘Bless my heart! This picture looks old.’
‘President Smith is married! How come something this big was hidden all this time?’
‘Oh My God! Why did he have a hidden marriage?’
‘Hold your horses, guys, the experts have yet to verify the pictures.’
‘Yeah! President Smith’s marriage can’t possibly be a secret.’
‘This is probably a fake picture.’
‘The verdict is out. The picture is real.’
‘He is married.’
‘He is indeed married.’
‘The most eligible bachelor in P city is not a bachelor at all.’
‘No wonder he never had any scandals, he had been a married man all along.’
‘I smell a conspiracy.’
‘Me too. This seems too coincidental a time for this piece of a bombshell to come out.’
‘Agreed, there is something else going on here.’
‘Maybe his wife is so ugly that he is too ashamed to reveal her.’
‘Maybe he was forced to get married and so he never acknowledged her.’
‘That sure sounds like something that happens in the upper class.’
‘Maybe she is not a nice person and he does not want to ruin his reputation by showing her to the public or acknowledging her.’
‘Maybe it’s someone who schemed to become Mrs. Smith for his money.’This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
‘Maybe they prefer low-key life like normal people without everyone’s scrutiny and based on the responses here, that sure sounds like something one ought to do.’
‘Come to think of it, Mrs. Liliana has never revealed her husband’s name. I wonder if they are married.’
‘No chance or the Smiths would have announced having an heir and the new generations. Mrs. Liliana has a child with someone else.’
‘Yeah! As much as I want to ship them both, it would mean breaking two marriages and separating the kids from their complete family.’
‘Too bad they can’t be together.’
‘I am so sad I have to abandon this ship! They would have made a great couple.’
And on and on the comments went on.
While some guessed that they might be married, the majority, as guided by the paid trolls, believed them to be an impossible match.
But one thing was true beyond a doubt.
Jonathan Smith was a married man.
Mrs. Liliana was a married woman.
Mrs. Liliana had kids with her husband.
And so, Jonathan and Liliana were never meant to be.
These were the public sentiments.
Both Liliana and Jonathan were asked to keep to themselves and maintain decorum.
Rose had been successful in her plan to put all the public opinion between Jonathan and Liliana.
Vivian though, unsatisfied with the results, was still happy to have separated Jonathan and Liliana.
Liliana and her friends had quite a laugh.
But Vincent was getting grilled left and right on who his mysterious lady boss was and whether he knew the inside story.
He knew the inside story, but he was in no position to reveal it.
Vincent could only muddle through and hope for his boss and his wife to come forward and save him.
