After the Divorce: Crushed on My Lawyer Ex-wife

#127 “Megan, We haven’t Done Anything that Night.”

As Alexander was immersed in his work, the familiar ping of a notification interrupted his concentration. He pulled out his phone and unlocked it to find yet another post about his marriage with Megan. This time, it was all about the team behind the grand event.

Irritation flickered in Alexander’s eyes; he didn’t appreciate the constant barrage of notifications invading his privacy. It was one of the many that day, and he hadn’t been able to get rid of them.

The whole show was getting on his nerves and he knew that Megan was the one spreading all this news.

Fueled by frustration, he dialed Megan’s number and summoned her to his office. Megan entered, and Alexander didn’t waste any time getting straight to the point.

“Megan, why is our private life constantly in the news and all over social media?” Alexander’s voice filled with anger accused her.

Megan, maintaining her calm demeanor, explained, “It’s for publicity, Alexander. We’re building our brand, and having our personal life out there helps create a connection with the audience. It’s good for business.”

Alexander displeased with the explanation, retorted, “But I don’t want everything we do to be so public. I value my privacy, and I don’t need our personal moments dissected and shared with the world.”

Megan, trying to justify her actions, said, “Look, Alexander, it’s all about increasing our exposure. The more people see us as a power couple, the more opportunities and business connections we’ll have. It’s for the success of our ventures.”

Alexander, skeptical and agitated, fired back, “Is it about the business, or are you trying to bind me to you? Using our personal life for publicity is one thing, but I won’t let it manipulate our relationship.”

In essence, Alexander was questioning Megan’s motives, suspecting that she was using the media to create public opinion and ensure he wouldn’t back out of their marriage. Megan, aware of his suspicions, denied any ulterior motives.

“No, Alexander, you’ve got it all wrong. I’m genuinely happy to be your wife, and I want the world to know how wonderful our life together is. It’s not about control; it’s about celebrating our happiness,” Megan defended herself.
