As they walked into the venue, Nina felt that all of the flashlights of the reporters' cameras were directed at her.

She was so nervous that her body could not help shaking. However, she straightened her back, followed Percy's footsteps, and arrived at the main seat. She then sat next to him at his signal.

Since she had chosen to be with Percy, it was time for her to learn to face the camera.

She put on her best demeanor so the reporters would not have the slightest chance to use her to attack Percy.

Percy sat down, and the reporters in the audience were eager to ask questions.

Percy raised his hand, indicating that it was not the time for them to ask questions. He was the host and main speaker since it was a last-minute press conference with no moderator.

"Hello, everyone. Good morning. Today's press conference is held because there's something I want to clarify. I hope that after you hear my side of the story, you can report what I said truthfully and inform the general public,” Percy finished speaking and glanced at Nina.

Nina replied to him with a small smile.

Percy continued talking, "I'm very sorry to hear that Ms. Madison Johnston attempted suicide by jumping off a building. At the same time, I'm here to address the various speculation on the internet. Ms. Nina Langdon and I met four years ago. We were in a committed relationship not long after we met. However, we broke up because of a minor conflict. The proof of our relationship over the years can prove that I'm speaking the truth. At the same time, I did have a marriage contract with Ms. Madison. It was a transactional marriage with no emotional basis. When I realized that I couldn't live without Ms. Nina, I promptly terminated my engagement with Ms. Madison and pursued Ms. Nina again. I made my choices with a clear head. I'd like to make it clear that Nina is not a mistress. When I first met her, I knew that she was the love of my life. It was unfortunate that we separated for a while because of certain misunderstandings. At the same time, she has been misunderstood and harassed a lot during this period, but she endured it silently without giving any statement. Nevertheless, it doesn't mean that she admits that she's my mistress. Therefore, I hope that after today's press conference, everyone will let go of the matter and stop spreading rumors that hurt my fiancée."

When Percy mentioned 'fiancée', Nina was startled, and there was an uproar in the audience as well.

Considering I still have feelings for Nina, it wouldn't be honorable nor responsible of me to marry Ms. Madison under these circumstances.
