When scrolling further down, the feed was flooded with news about Winston. Among them was some unsettling information.

relationship. There have been reports of Winston seen with Joanna multiple times during his marriage.”
“Winston went to the beach with Joanna. Joanna posted on Instagram, and the person whose face was hidden in the photo was Winston.”
“Winston had an affair during his marriage. He feels no emotional connection with Millie as his true love is Joanna, the heiress of the Lowell family.”
Different kinds of news information became visible to everyone. The room fell silent, with only the sound of fingers tapping on screens.
Selma’s frown tightened as she stared at her phone. Lillian cleared her throat lightly and cast a meaningful glance at her.
Amidst the silence, Diana asked softly, is the divorce really happening? Have they already signed the divorce agreement?”
Evelyn pressed her lips together and responded, “Looks like it. After all, Winston was on stage with Joanna just yesterday.”
“So, does that mean Winston is having an affair?” someone else asked.
Evelyn chuckled, her words dripping with sarcasm. “Absolutely. No wonder Millie and Simon were playing around at the fountain the other day. Turns out they’re already divorced!”
Selma’s gaze gradually turned colder as she instinctively glanced at Evelyn.
“Ahem!” Lillian cleared her throat, signaling everyone to stop talking. Selma

was still present, after all.
Everyone lifted their heads. Sure enough, Selma was sitting there, her demeanor subdued as her eyes were glued to her phone.
One of the guests couldn’t hold back any longer. She commented, “Winston is truly in the wrong here. Millie isn’t any less than Joanna, so how could he have an affair while married? This really tarnishes the Caldwells‘ reputation.”
“Yeah, exactly. When has the Greer family ever been caught up in such a mess? It’d be terrible if word gets out. He has a wife, yet he kept another woman by his side,” Evelyn muttered.
Selma raised her head at this remark.
Evelyn continued, “Calling it ‘having an affair‘ sounds nicer. But to put it bluntly, isn’t he just messing around? He’s wrecked his good name this time.”
Selma clenched her fists and abruptly rose. At that sight, Lillian hurriedly followed suit.
“Oh, Selma!”
“Mrs. Greer Senior, are you leaving already?” Evelyn deliberately called out before adding, “Don’t get mad. Sometimes, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, and that’s normal!”
Selma turned to look at Evelyn instantly. What was she implying? The Greer family had never been involved in such a mess before!
“Stop with the sarcastic remarks. It’s not your place to ridicule the Greer family’s matters. Mind your own business!” Selma yelled furiously.
Evelyn chuckled, her tone mocking as she uttered, “Well, now that the Greer family is in the spotlight. Let us enjoy the spectacle.”
Selma narrowed her eyes, seething with anger. She couldn’t believe Evelyn was taking advantage of the situation to laugh at them. Who did she think she was?
“You’re going to regret your words sooner or later!” Selma admonished while pointing at Evelyn.
But Evelyn, relying on her power and influence, remained unfazed.
Selma hurried out, and her assistant came to meet her.

“Let’s go!” she ordered in a low voice.
Lillian sighed. “Selma, call me if you need anything!”
“My family can handle it!” Selma replied arrogantly.
Evelyn pressed her lips together and said, “Indeed, the Greer family is truly capable. Her grandson has two wives!”
Although Selma was walking away, she still heard what Evelyn said. Right then, she felt a sharp pain in her chest and cursed inwardly, “Winston Greer, your scoundrel!”
