Chapter 259

Chapter 259:
Wherever Brandon went, he naturally became the center of attention. The moment they stepped through the door, all eyes turned toward him.
Reporters quickly got to work, snapping photos and capturing the moment. Within minutes, headlines like “Millie and Brandon Attend Babette’s Party Together” began circulating.
Until now, Brandon had only been seen in public with Vivian. It was the first time in days that he’d appeared with his actual partner.
The Internet was buzzing with speculation.
“Wow, it’s been a while since we saw those two together.”
“Wait, what about Vivian? Wasn’t Brandon with her all this time?”
“Come on, think about it. This is Babette’s welcome home party, and she’s family. It wouldn’t exactly be proper for him to show up with Vivian.”
“But didn’t he take Vivian to that charity gala just recently?”
“You guys are missing the point. Vivian has been unwell and tied up with filming that series, Glimmer of Love. Word is, she’s fallen sick again. There’s no way she’d make it to something like a wine tasting.” Content originally comes from
“Exactly. It’s a wine tasting, after all. Vivian is battling late-stage stomach cancer. You really expect her to show up and start drinking? That’s insane. Do you want her dead sooner?”
“Yeah… when you put it that way, it makes sense.”
Vivian’s fans jumped in quickly to defend her.
“Millie is just shameless. She’ll do anything for the Watsons’ money. She’s probably counting down the months until Vivian dies so she can keep living off Brandon and his family.”
“Exactly. All she has to do is wait six months. Vivian will be gone, and she’ll still have the Watson name. What’s stopping her?”
“For real. With all those stories flying around about Brandon and Vivian, she still shows up with him? That woman must be obsessed with his money. It’s pathetic.”

“Brandon!” Babette spotted them as they entered the hotel and came over with a welcoming smile.
She raised her wine glass toward Brandon but deliberately ignored Millie.
A waiter approached with a tray of glasses.
Millie and Brandon each picked one up.
Brandon stayed and exchanged a few casual words with Babette.
“I’ll be joining the Watson Group soon. Don’t even think about giving me the short end of the stick,” Babette said with a playful smirk, casting a sideways glance at Millie.
Brandon’s expression remained calm. He simply nodded in response.
“Have you decided yet? Will you take over your father’s company or start somewhere else in the group?” Brandon asked.
“I’ll let you know later,” Babette replied, her tone hinting at mystery. After exchanging greetings with the two, she turned and moved on to mingle with the other guests.
