Chapter 346 "Can't you guys just ship them peacefully? Why do you have to compare and put others down? They're a real married couple, not srandom lovebirds." "They are both gorgeous. I've never seen such a perfectly matched couple before. They need to be together forever!" What even was this? "You still don't know? You two have been trending online like crazy lately.

The two women immediately started buzzing about it.
Angela began to laugh so hard that the injury on her back got tugged, making her grimace in pain.
"Does no one care about how I got hurt? Why is everyone's focus on something so weird?" She gritted her teeth.
The staff from the operations and logistics department told her that the chandelier had fallen purely by accident. Apparently, there had been ongoing renovations upstairs and downstairs at the venue, and all the vibrations had loosened the screws.

Yet, her instincts told her otherwise.
Mia patted her shoulder. "Calm down. There's no need to panic. Think about it- you actually got lucky in this whole mess. Your public image has never been better! "People are calling you the modern-day 'Iron Lady'! They're even saying you and Dexter, whom they call 'Iron Man', are the perfect match. They're hoping that your relationship lasts forever so you can keep entertaining them." Angela was at a loss for words. Oh, well. Her hard work had paid off, but why did the outchave to be so bizarre? "At best, Dexter and I are just allies. To be honest, every tI see him, I feel like I owe him billions, and I can never pay it back. You have no idea what that feels like," she said.
Mia raised an eyebrow in surprise. "Why would you think that? Dexter treats you well because you're a good person. Do you really think he's been nice to you just so that you will repay him? Do you think he needs your billions? You're seriously infuriating." Angela sighed helplessly. "You sound just like Madam Fiona. But..." But her relationship with Dexter wasn't as simple as one between an ordinary man and woman; it was complicated.
"There's something, but I don't know if I should say it... I just heard it through the grapevine," Mia uttered, looking like she was dying to spill the tea.
The exasperated Angela waved her hand. "If you have something to say, say it. Otherwise, you can leave." Mia cleared her throat before her smile thougcunusually bright. Even were the only two people in the living room, she still leaned close to Angela.
Raising a hand to her mouth as if to shield it, she whispered just loud enough for the two of them to hear "I heard from Zayn that Dexter hired paid commenters to hype up your relationship and push people into shipping you two." Angela was speechless.
What the heck? "I don't believe that at all." She shook her head firmly.
Mia couldn't hold back her laughter anymore and started pounding the couch as she laughed.

"I'm telling you, this is the funniest thing I've heard in my life. Just think e about it Dexter, the serious, no-nonsense guy that he is, actually... He actually..." Mia guffawed.
She was usually composed and elegant, always carrying herself with a natural grace.
But at this moment, whether she was revealing her true self or had been possessed by someone else, she was completely unlike her usual self. "Stop laughing." Angela sighed. "Stop laughing-Dexter is back." Mia's long, hearty laugh cto an abrupt halt.
"What are you two talking about?" Dexter asked as he took off his coat and handed it to the maid, trying to act casual.
He had already vaguely overheard a few sentences. At that moment, he was just barely holding onto his composure. "Nothing much. We just thought of something really funny," Angela answered.
