Chapter 814
Emma murmured a few more soothing words before ending the call. Determined to give Finnian a piece of her mind, she dialed his number, but it rang out repeatedly with no answer.
She knew perfectly well he wasn’t just too busy to pick up. She had called him several times over the past few days, and he had ignored every single one. What was he playing at? Was he seriously trying to cut ties with his own mother?
A fresh wave of fury surged through her veins. Snatching a teacup from the table, she hurled it violently against the hardwood floor, cursing his name before grabbing a decorative vase and smashing that, too.
Outside her door, Mack and Lanny stood like statues. Hearing the crashing of porcelain and glass, the twin bodyguards exchanged a fleeting look of resignation. Mr. Everly’s mother was throwing another tantrum, but they didn’t flinch.
A film set was the last place to expect privacy. If a simple lunch between Amara and Keith could get leaked online, Finnian’s massive investment into *Letters from Yesterday*—along with his bold declaration that Amara was Antonia’s sister-in-law— was bound to hit the internet at lightspeed.
This scandal blew the previous drama between Amara and Keith completely out of the water. After all, Finnian and Amara were ex-spouses.
The fact that there had been zero public hints of a reconciliation between them made this sudden leap in their relationship all the more shocking to the public. It was as if their romance had secretly skyrocketed behind closed doors.
Within an hour, the scandal rocketed to the top of the trending lists, locking in the number one spot across every social media platform.
“Holy crap, what is happening?! Are Finnian and Amara getting back together? Does this mean the baby is his?! My mind is blown!”
“Stop making things up. There is no way that baby is Finnian’s. If it was, they would have remarried months ago. Mr. Everly is completely devoted to Liliana. Everyone needs to chill with the conspiracy theories.”
“LMAO Liliana’s fans are delusional.
Still holding out hope for that wedding, huh? He literally bailed right before they were supposed to
her anymore. The mental
get married. e.clear want
no
gymnastics you guys do is hilarious.”
“I’m not picking sides, but Finnian and Amarises relationship is such a wild ride. Weren’t they originally ina contract marriage? Rumor was there were aro feelings involved. But if he actually demanded someone call her his sister-in-law, he’s definitely
caught feelings.”
“Obviously he has feelings! But what about Amarise? Wasn’t she literally about to marry Keith just a few days ago?”
“This isn’t a love triangle… this is a straight-up love square. I’m just gonna sit back, grab some popcorn, and enjoy the show.”
Amara saw the trending topics during her break. Scrolling through the comment sections, she realized that nearly all the top liked posts were dissecting her relationship with Finnian. Even worse, half the internet was now wildly speculating that he was the father of her child.
Her stomach dropped. No matter what happened, she did not want her baby tied to Finnian in the public eye.
He already knew the truth, and there was nothing she could do about that, but she had desperately hoped to keep the rest of the world in the dark. How were people already connecting the dots?
This was all Finnian’s fault! If he hadn’t stirred the pot by demanding Antonia call her that ridiculous title, none of this would be happening.
