The CEO's Amazing Ex-Wife Is Back! by H. Dally

Chapter 38

At TT Fashion House, paparazzi and reporters from all the major news outlets had gathered in front of the building, waiting to speak to Thalassa.

Ever since the real footage was released, public opinion had shifted in Thalassa’s favor, but she knew she could take more advantage of this. That was why she’d called for this press conference. As soon as she stepped out of the building onto the street, cameras began flashing, and all the reporters began throwing their questions at her simultaneously. She was accompanied by Luisa, who stood beside her.

“One at a time, please,” Thalassa said calmly but loudly enough to command respect.

“Miss Thompson, what do you have to say about the anonymous video accusing you of mistreating Linda Miller and her family members?” a reporter asked.

Thalassa elegantly flipped her hair before answering, “As has already been proven by the original footage I released, those claims are nothing but false. It was obviously posted by someone who wanted to hurt me, but the truth will always prevail”

“By ‘someone,” do you mean the Miller family? There are rumors that they released the video to sabotage your .brand, Do you agree with these rumors?” another reporter asked.

Thalassa smiled. “I can’t point fingers without proof, but if it was them, it wouldn’t be the first time they’ve done something like this.”

Excitement churned among the reporters as they all began throwing questions at the same time again. Thalassa remained unresponsive until they quieted down.

“Are you referring to what happened three years ago when you were the daughter–in–law of the Miller family?” the first reporter asked. “Isn’t it true that you betrayed the Miller family, stole several million, and cheated on your husband, Kris Miller?”

Thalassa’s smile didn’t falter; she had expected the question. The corner of her lip twitched. “Isn’t it amazing that years ago, when it happened, everyone jumped to conclusions without caring about the other side? Nobody looked for me to ask any questions. Now you want to hear my side of the story?”

The reporters looked stricken with embarrassment before one said, “Yes, we’re ready to listen to your side now, Miss Thompson. What do you have to say about it?”

“The only thing I would like to say is that the full truth will come to light soon because the truth can never be buried forever.”

At that moment, a white Porsche pulled into the parking lot Behind the wheel was Kris, and Alden was sitting in the front passenger seat.

“What’s going on here?” Alden wondered out loud.

“She called a press conference,” Kris said as he opened his door and stepped out of the car. Alden did the same.
