Chapter 165
Jerome was annoyed.
“What could she possibly be unhappy about? She took advantage of her identity as Mrs.
Miller and let Betty in. When such a serious accident happened, she didn’t even care. She
was just there advertising her liquor.I didn’t blame her for that and let her do whatever she
wanted. Why should I explain anything to her?”
“Regardless of what Mikayla did afterward, the truth was you took another woman in your
arms and left her alone. Isn’t that a fact?” Connor pointed out.
Jerome didn’t understand.
“The situation was urgent, I didn’t have time to look after her. She wasn’t injured. Why
couldn’t she go home by herself?”
Connor sighed.
How was Jerome ever going to win Mikayla back?
It was truly frustrating.
“Even if she wasn’t injured, she would still be frightened,” Connor explained. “You never
cared about how she felt. A lot of Miller Group employees and partners were there that day. Wouldn’t they ridicule her for being abandoned like that?”
Hearing this, Jerome frowned.
He thought of the photo of Mikayla standing alone on the dance floor when it was trending.
She stood there alone among the crowd with a melancholic expression and vacant gaze.
The posts talking about it were extremely exaggerated as well.
She was rumored to be neglected, and that the marriage was falling apart.
When Jerome saw Ansoft trending after Mikayla, he thought it was also a part of Mikayla’s
scheme.
But he never realized that if she didn’t intentionally get drunk, then she would’ve actually
been laughed at and made fun of.
Thinking of this, Jerome felt as gloomy as when he first read the posts that night.
If she’s not feeling well, why wouldn’t she tell me?” Jerome wondered.
“She probably thought it was useless to tell you. Besides, she is a strong person Realizing she couldn’t change public opinion, she decided to take advantage of the situation As long as she gains from it, she won’t bother to complain about feeling aggrieved. Connor analyzed for him.
Jerome thought back on the scene of Mikayla’s tears streaming down her drunken face as she said, “I’m fine. I won’t let myself suffer.”
Was she referring to this incident?
“What should I do now?” Jerome frowned and asked.
Seeing Jerome finally come around, Connor felt relieved.
“Jerome, there were many employees from the Miller Group that day. What you did have made them look down on Mikayla, thinking that
“Stop wasting my time. Just give me the solution! Jerome interrupted.
Connor thought for a moment
“The company usually has company trips, right? Why don’t you take her with you? Let everyone know that you cherish her and help her gain back her reputation.”
“Will that work?”
“Of course! Even if it doesn’t, taking her out to relax would improve her mood!”
Jerome decided to trust Connor this time.
Mikayla did complain to him before that he never took her out.
Mikayla went to the dojo in the afternoon.
She called Michael to inquire about the video.
Michael told her that he had recorded and posted several videos in the group last night.
Kenny saw them and thought they were great, so he edited a segment and posted it online.
“Miss, we didn’t expect it to garner so much attention. I hope it didn’t cause you any trouble.
ire not that serious,” Mikayla replied, “I’m quite happy to receive so many compliments. I had a lot of fun yesterday.”
“A lot of people are asking for the full version of the video. Do you think we can post it?” Michael asked.
Mikayla shook her head.
“Forget it, I don’t plan to be an influencer. I’ve had enough fun.”
“Okay.” Michael respected her decision.
