You Are The Pursuit of My Life

Chapter 127

all, they were gambling with their reputations.

Jordan was implying that Lily and Deborah were the ones who self-directed the whole thing. Irene didn't believe it. Although she hated them very much, she wasn't convinced that they would commit such a thing for it would very likely end up shooting their own feet. After She returned to Thomas' place with a heavy heart. When Thomas saw her face that was plastered with anxiety, he recalled that Edric and Jordan were looking for her all over the place earlier that day. Thomas had been worried about her throughout the day, for fear that something would happen to her.

Later, Jordan called Thomas and told the latter that Irene had gone on a business trip. Soon after that, when Thomas finally reached Irene, what she told him was the same as Jordan. Although Thomas didn't quite believe it, he decided not to question the authenticity of their statements.

It was not until he saw the evening news that he realized that things had been going haywire. Seeing Irene coming over, he asked immediately, "Irene, are you alright?"

"I am all good, Uncle Thomas. It's all in the past!" Irene sat down. "Uncle Thomas, I'm famished. Can you make me a plate of spaghetti?"

Thomas went to prepare it immediately. At this time, Irene received a phone call from Kinsey. "Irene, Edric is recording a program on the TV station now."

"At this hour?" Irene took a look at the time in surprise. It was now 10 o'clock in the night. "Is there something wrong with Edric?" she wondered.

"Yeah, I just heard from my colleagues in the TV station. What do you think he is going to do?" Kinsey chirped.

"How would I know?" Irene replied.

"I knew that this would be your answer. You guys are on the cusp of everyone's attention now. In everyone's eyes, Lily is now the mistress and Edric is a jerk. Even your ex mother-in-law is now called evil by others. Aren't you worried that Edric would counterattack?" "Just let them do whatever they want. Anyway, I didn't initiate this whole thing. Let them do whatever they want," Irene said. She had not been feeling very well. Besides, Steven even made such a scene in the hospital a while ago. She was exhausted and famished, so how could she be bothered to even care about this?

"You are indeed so kind. Normally, people will seize this opportunity to completely vanquish them, but you didn't even badmouth them or do anything about it. I'm so pissed off!" Kinsey whined.

Kinsey was infuriated by Irene's indifference. "Forget it. I'm destined to have a busy life from having friends like you. I'd better find out why Edric is participating in the TV program at this hour. I'll tell you when I find out the reason."

It was already the following day when Margaret found out that she was now on the headlines of every newspaper in the city. When she read the condemnation against her, Edric, and Lily in the newspaper, she was so irate that she went breathless.

At this moment, Marie called her and told her what had happened. She claimed that Irene had orchestrated the whole thing as Irene wanted to get back together with Edric. Margaret gnashed her teeth, and her sympathy for Irene disappeared at once. She swore to make Irene pay for all the criticism and verbal abuse she received.

After she hung up the phone, she called Edric immediately and questioned if the public relations of his company he hired was even doing their tasks. Why didn't they contain such big news?
