Chapter 491 Scandal

"Your old flame is totally setting you up! And that guy? He's just making things worse. They're obviously working together, trying to push you over the edge in front of the media."

Patrick suddenly had a realization and turned to Michael. "Oh no, they took those photos to give the media something to twist and smear you with! Michael, should we..."

Before Patrick could finish, Michael had already calmed down. He grabbed his suit jacket and stood up to leave.

"Michael, chill out. Now's not the time to run away!"

Patrick tried to stop him, but Michael responded. "I'm not running away. The media can write whatever they want. I don't care, and I don't want to care. I'm tired. I'm going home to sleep."

With that, Michael walked out, and Patrick couldn't stop him.

Left with no choice, Patrick had to let it go for the night.

But the more Patrick thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed. Why did Mark invite him for drinks, only for Michael to get set up?

Could there be a connection?

Patrick was filled with doubt and decided to investigate privately to help Michael.

Meanwhile, Sophia and Dean left the bar with smug smiles, knowing their plan had succeeded. The media would blow everything out of proportion, tarnishing Michael's reputation.

What could Emily do then?

It was all part of a meticulously planned scheme, with every step under their control.

Michael's outburst and the media frenzy would set the stage for their next move to get revenge on Emily.

"Hey, you two!"

Just then, Mark, wearing a floral shirt like a flamboyant butterfly, emerged from the shadows, interrupting Sophia and Dean's gloating.
