After the movie, Avery and Alexander went to the flower market and the food fair, eating and drinking. They took a ton of photos, enjoying their ti together.
Around midnight, Alexander sent Avery back to Mid-Level Mountain Garden before heading back to the hotel. The next morning, he returned to Valemont City to participate in a family gathering. At the sa ti, intimate photos and videos of Alexander and Avery at the cinema went viral online. It did not take long for a netizen to recognize Avery.
The netizen typed: [Isn’t this Avery Carter, Rosemont University’s campus belle and Zayn Carter’s sister? Were they close?]
Zayn’s popularity was off the charts. Naturally, when suspicions of his sister dating Moran Group’s CEO, Alexander Moran, surfaced, it beca a hot topic. The entire internet was discussing it.
[Zayn’s a big deal, and he’s got a solid family background. But honestly, the Moran family is out of the Carter family’s league. These two won’t last long.] [Zayn’s sister is definitely gorgeous, but there’s no way Mr. Moran’s gonna marry her. At best, it’ll just be a fling.]
[Every woman Mr. Moran’s been with has been more beautiful than the last, but they’ve all had it worse. One’s dead, and the other lost a baby. Zayn’s sister probably won’t have it any better...] The Carter family’s mbers instantly noticed the ssage and were furious. They imdiately got soone to delete the ssage on the Internet.
Now, they could be said to be very experienced in dealing with such matters. They knew very well who to find and how much money they had to spend to delete such ssages on the Internet. Wesley asked, "Avery, do you want to make a statent or ask Zayn to clarify the scandal between you and Mr. Moran?"
Avery replied indifferently, "There’s no need. Let others talk however they want."
The entire family was stunned. "Are you really... not intending to clear it up?"
They had all heard about the tragic fate of Alexander’s ex-girlfriends and were worried that the lovely Avery would suffer.
Avery said with a smile, "How tiring would it be to always respond to such news? Just leave it be. Let’s quickly pack our things and prepare to move tomorrow."
Avery focused on packing her stuff.
The Carter family’s mbers fell silent.
They thought, ’Is Avery indirectly admitting to sothing going on between her and Alexander?’
Although they already guessed it, they were still shocked.
The n in the Carter family could not sleep well that night. The thought of moving into a huge mansion did not lift their spirits.
anwhile, the Moran family and Anabel had heard about the scandal between Alexander and Avery.
The Moran family did not take Alexander’s scandal seriously, given what happened with Maladyn and Jaylin. They thought Alexander would soon lose interest in Avery. Anabel thought so, too.
She sneered, saying to Juliet, "Alexander didn’t confirm anything. That ans there’s nothing between them."
Juliet could not help but ask, "What if Mr. Moran does?"
"So be it," Anabel stated coldly. "Anything goes as long as he doesn’t intend to marry that woman."
Due to Jaylin’s miscarriage, Anabel suffered heavy damage to her reputation, which also led to the Moran family no longer holding her in high regard.
Anabel had heard that the Moran family was already sourcing a new marriage candidate for Alexander. The daughters of prestigious families throughout not just Valemont City, but the whole of Osceiton, were eyeing the opportunity. If she wanted to win back the Moran family’s approval, she had to keep a low profile and rebuild her image.
Juliet nodded. "I understand."
Deep inside, Julie was tired of helping Anabel keep an eye on the won around Alexander.
Having worked hard to get to her current position, she did not want her job to revolve around acting like a paparazzi in the entertainnt industry.
She was no longer short of money. She wanted to focus on a aningful career.
However, Julie did not dare to complain to Anabel, let alone suggest changing jobs.
Just like that, the scandal between Avery and Alexander blew over.
For the next few days, the Carter family’s mbers were busy with moving.
They usually did so during the night or early morning. When the sky was dark and no one was at the door, they would put their luggage in the car and drive to the mountain in the east.
It took them three to four days to move everything.
anwhile, Tina returned to Rosemont City after visiting her hotown.
Upon learning that Maria was moving, she hugged and kissed Dolli, crying: "Boohoo... If you and Dolli won’t be here anymore, I have no reason to stay. It’s about ti my lease is up anyway... I won’t renew it.
I’ll move out in a few days.
She had a small apartnt and a two-bedroom villa in Rosemont City. Previously, she lived in one and rented another.
Tina rented an apartnt at Mid-Level Mountain Garden to persuade Zayn to act as her male lead. Now that Zayn had alread entered the production team to film, there was no need for her too continue living there.
When Maria heard that Tina was moving out, she panicked. "Trina, I’ll miss you. Why don’t you stay with ?"
She continued, "Our new mansion is huge. Everyone has a section to themselves, including . It’s two stories high and has five to six rooms. It’s too big for alone to live in." She went on, "If you move in, I’ll feel much more at ease."
Tina hesitated for a mont before shaking her head. "I can visit occasionally for a stayover, but it’ll be too much of a bother if I move in."
"Nah," Maria quickly said. "My family is very busy with work. Other than at night and during the holidays, there’s usually nobody at ho."
She continued, "If you move in, it’ll be much livelier. I’m sure my parents will love it, too."
Tina was still hesitant. "I love the atmosphere your family has, but..."
When Claire heard their heard
conversation, she smiled and said,"Trina, you’re practically our family now. We have so many rooms.. Co live here with us. Maria will love having you around too. The house is too big for her."
Wesley joined in, "Josie also likes to have a crowd. Besides, Dolli and Bello like you. Don’t worry about it."
Arthur chid in as he moved the items, "Yeah, just feel free to move in. Let’s play cards when we get the ti."
Tina liked to play gas and was quite good at it. The two of them often tried to top each other in gas.
Due to the Carter family’s sincerity, Tina was tempted.
After so thought, she said, "All right. I can already tell it’ll be nice and cozy. But I feel bad for living rent-free. How about I pay 4,000 dollars a month?"
The monthly rent for the small villa she was renting now was 4,000 dollars.
The Carter family’s new mansion was much better than the small villa she had rented. Besides, it ca with als, which were bound to be superb. 4,000 dollars a month was honestly lowballing. However, Tina was not that rich. 4,000 dollars a month was her limit.
"Keep the money," Claire hurriedly said. "You’re friends with Maria and Zayn, and we have so many free rooms. How can we charge you rent?"
Maria agreed, "If you talk about rent again, you’re not considering a friend."
Tina did not act pretentious. "Then, let’s make do with 2000 dollars. If it’s any less, I’ll feel bad living here."
She added, "Like you said, we’re friends. I really appreciate your offer, but I want to repay you in so way. Let at least take care of my daily expenses."
