Chapter 1349
Behind them, Quincy watched Lydia and Eugene walk away, a storm of pain swirling in his chest. He wanted
nothing more than to step in, stop them, and take Lydia back home. But in his current position, what right did he
have? "Quincy," Tiffany cut in, taking advantage of the moment. "I know how women think, and | can see
through Lydia's little game. She's with this new guy, but she still wants to keep you as a backup. She's just using
you as a safety net." Quincy clenched his fists. "I don't hit women, but don't push me. I'm warning you. Keep
your mouth shut."
"Quincy!" Tiffany's frustration boiled over. Why was he so devoted to Lydia?
But she also knew when to stop. If she kept pushing and really set Quincy off, it could spiral out of control. So,
she reluctantly fell silent, watching as Quincy walked away.
Immediately, Tiffany pulled out her phone and called the media contact she had arranged. "You got all the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfootage | mentioned, right? Follow through as we discussed, and I'll send over the rest of the payment."
With the money she had promised, the media outlet wasted no time. Within minutes, gossip about Lydia hit the
top of trending topics, complete with edited video clips.
In the video, it was obvious that Lydia had barely stepped out of the courthouse when another man approached
her with a bouquet. Combined with photos Eugene had previously sent to Mrs. Perez, all neatly arranged on a
timeline, the scandal quickly blew up. In no time, Lydia was being mercilessly slammed by netizens.
"So this Miss Fay was cozying up to another guy before her divorce was even finalized? They're already at the
beach together, and he's waiting outside the courthouse with flowers? Could they be any more blatant?"
"Honestly, it's disgusting. Does she
think getting flowers right out of the
courthouse is skind of
achievement? | just feel secondhand embarrassment. Even if you're jumping straight to a new relationship, at
least be discreet."
"Please. This isn't a clean break. It's straight-up cheating. She was seeing this guy while still married."
"If this is what we're seeing, imagine what else has been going on. Her husband has probably been dealing with
a lot more behind the scenes than we know."
"Honestly, her husband must be desperate for the Fay family's wealth He went through with the divorce without
saying a word. If it weren't for the video going viral, he would've just let it slide."
"Yeah, he probably kept quiet for the money. She's a rich heiress, after all. Just endure it, get what you can, then
dump her when it's convenient. I'd do the same." Eugene was the first to read through the comments, watching
as Lydia becthe target of online vitriol.

"Mr. Ford, should we suppress this trending topic?" his assistant asked, aware of Eugene's pursuit of Lydia.
Eugene shook his head. "Leave it alone."
He closed his laptop, his mind already made up. If he simply shut it down, Lydia might thank him, but then what?
They would still just be friends, with
no progress. No matter how much
he wanted to take things further,
Lydia clearly didn't feel the samenet
way. He might as well let the
situation unfold even more intensely.
