"Desmond," Lucas called.

"Yes," Desmond responded immediately.

Desmond quickly took out his laptop and projected a video onto the screen behind them.

He said, "I'm sure many of you haven't seen the full video yet?"

As his words fell, everyone's attention turned to the screen.

The video showed a hospital corridor, where a middle-aged man and woman stood at the doorway of a patient room, shouting.

A young woman approached them, trying to reason with them.

Due to the angle, her face was not visible in the footage.

However, it was clear that the middle-aged woman attempted to hit the young woman, and only then did Lucas step in.

"Here's the full video," Desmond said, pausing the footage at the right moment. "As you can see, Mr. Tudor was just defending the lady, not abusing his power like some people online are saying. If Mr. Tudor had really done something wrong, it'd be a police matter, not a matter of public opinion."

After watching the video, the reporters in the room were stunned.

Was this what really happened?

Defending a lady?

- "I knew it! How could someone so handsome do something like bullying others?"

"I suspected there was more to this from the beginning. The video was so short, and it kept going viral these past two days. Could this be some sort of corporate battle?"

"So, a corporate war now involves smearing the rival Chairman's reputation?"

"Even so, it's still no reason to use force. The other person is much older; what if something serious happened?"

The comments continued to flood in, filled with mixed opinions.

Lucas stood up and said coldly, "The facts are right in front of you. I have nothing more to add. If anyone still has doubts, report it to the police directly."

With that, he turned and left the conference room.

The reporters were left bewildered, expecting to uncover some fresh scoop by coming here.

Instead, it turned out to be a clarification press conference.

Once the full video was released, the online narrative was bound to shift-unless another twist emerged.

At the same time.

Aveline watched the live stream.

Seeing Lucas handle the situation so calmly and methodically, a faint smile appeared on her lips.

He clearly didn't care much about it, yet he still showed up at the press conference. And while everyone was focused on the video, he was casually looking at his phone,

showing that this whole thing didn't

affect him much at all.

Throughout the entire video, she hadn't appeared, and not a single word about her had been mentioned.

This matter should be close to being resolved, right?

Tomorrow, they could finally go and get the divorce certificate.

Thinking about it made Aveline quite happy.

"You seem pretty pleased to see he's okay," Sidney's voice came from behind her.

Aveline turned around to face him. "When did you get here?"

"I've been here since the live stream started," Sidney replied.

He looked at her with a complex expression, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he held back.

Right now, he didn't have the right to say those things.

Aveline said, "Of course I'm happy he's okay."

Sidney looked at her, surprised. "Did you two... make up?"

Aveline shook her head. "No, we

haven't, but I won't let our personal issues drag into anything else.

Besides, he's not exactly a villain."

Sidney's expression grew even more conflicted.

"Phew... I'm

austed. Finally made

it back,

it doordria's voice came from

the

drawing everyone's attention.

They saw her looking utterly worn out.

Aveline asked, "Where did you go?"
