Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 1275

Abigail was hurt by the haters who wrote and spread hateful posts to slander her. She had endured storms of criticism, but she couldn't help but feel hurt and alone. She didn't understand what she had done wrong. Since her debut, every step she took was under intense scrutiny. Even the smallest mistakes were magnified.

"Ms. Fox, as the film studio's ambassador, don't you owe an explanation to your coworkers and the audience?"

Abigail clutched the microphone, her shoulders trembling as she struggled to maintain her smile in front of the camera.

The relentless reporters pressed on.

"Ms. Fox, explain yourself!"

"Yeah, Ms. Fox! This needs proper addressing. You're an artist under Imperial Media, yet you became the ambassador for the Thompson Group. All the other artists except you fell ill on the day of the film studio's opening. Was there a power struggle behind the scenes?"

"Ms. Fox, we want to know the truth!"

Abigail's palms were sweating, and her breathing quickened. She took a deep breath to try to stay composed and glanced around the crowd. Jackie was nowhere to be found, so she had to handle this herself. "Don't worry. I'll provide a satisfactory explanation," Abigail said with a smile. "But this is the red carpet, and other artists are coming behind me. I can't delay their time. I apologize for that!" "Ms. Fox, are you brushing this off?"

"Who said I'm brushing things off?" A sharp voice interrupted the chaos.

Abigail's heart clenched as she looked toward the source of the voice.

Jacob emerged from the crowd like a valiant battle angel descending from the heavens.

"Who said Ms. Fox plans to brush it off?"

Several reporters exchanged looks but remained silent. The remaining reporters focused their cameras on Jacob, sensing that extraordinary news might be unfolding.

"Sir, you're..."

Jacob was wearing a black suit and gold-rimmed glasses. "I am Ms. Fox's lawyer," he introduced himself elegantly.

He stood beside Abigail, blocking her from view. Despite Abigail's height among female stars, she looked short next to Jacob.

"I heard all of your questions just now," Jacob said solemnly, "Making baseless accusations against an artist or their company without evidence can lead to legal consequences. As Ms. Fox's lawyer, I can pursue your legal liabilities!"

Several reporters looked uneasy and put down their microphones, avoiding eye contact.

"I was fortunate enough to be involved in the opening ceremony of the film studio, and I have detailed information on the investigation of this case.

"If anyone wants to know the detailed process, feel free to approach me. But if anyone dares to harass Ms. Fox again, I'll take legal action and send you to court!"

The reporters fell silent.

Other artists stepped forward to smooth things over as Abigail left the red carpet and blended swiftly into the crowd.

Her heart pounded, and she wanted to look at Jacob again. Unfortunately, he had vanished without a trace. She felt a tinge of regret-if only she had held onto his hand earlier! "Strawberry mousse and cheesecake. Which one do you prefer?"

Abigail's eyes snapped up in surprise.
