Lily couldn’t hide her curiosity as she gently pulled the newspaper from Parker’s trembling hands. Excitement sparkled in her eyes as she skimmed through its contents. The pages were plastered with photos of her and Parker, alongside bold headlines that made her stomach churn with a mix of amusement and disbelief.

She immediately understood why Ethan was fuming and ready to unleash his wrath on poor Parker. Glancing at her husband’s brooding expression, she couldn’t help but feel sorry for Parker. Yet, deep down, she found Ethan’s jealousy endearing. It was one of those traits she secretly adored about him.

Unable to contain her amusement, she began reading the headlines aloud, her tone lighthearted:

“Actress Lily’s Secret Boyfriend Revealed.“”

“Lily’s Hidden Romance Exposed.””

“thatOneSmile: Lily and Parker Spark Dating Rumors.”

Lily chuckled before diving into the main article. Her voice carried a mix of humor and curiosity:

“Yesterday at the city’s grand fashion show, attended by many big names from the entertainment industry, Lily, the current sensation of Shades of Love, dazzled the audience in a stunning red gown. While her dress garnered much praise, it was her unexpected smile that became the highlight of the evening.

“During her walk on the ramp, the actress turned her gaze to the audience and smiled warmly. This heartfelt smile caught the attention of viewers and attendees alike, sparking a wave of speculation about who the smile was meant for.

“The live broadcast of the event led to an online frenzy. Viewers began piecing together clues, as only a few people in the audience were within her line of sight. Of these, four were eligible bachelors: James, Jeff, Parker, and Ethan. Netizens even conducted an online poll, matching Lily with each of these men to determine who the lucky recipient of her smile might be.“”

Lily paused, looking up with a playful grin. “I had no idea netizens were so creative! Online voting? Really?”

Parker seized the moment, eager to escape Ethan’s wrath. “Sister–in–law, how about we save this for later? You can read it at home.”

Before she could respond, Ethan’s voice cut through, calm but firm. “Why stop her? Let her read it. We should all know what the netizens think about us.”
