Chapter 405
Chapter 405:
Jayceon looked genuinely amused. “Of course I like her. Is that a problem?” He added matter-of-factly, “Everyone knows I’ve been a fan of hers since her first live performance.”
He gave an exaggerated look of surprise. “Or haven’t I made that obvious enough?”
Then, with a dramatic roll of his eyes, he turned and left to join his siblings to get some food.
Brandon and Vivian were left standing in silence.
Meanwhile, in the car, Jayceon turned to Myron, seeking approval. “How was I?”
Myron smiled. “Not bad.”
“Then give me less work this month. I’m exhausted,” Jayceon pleaded.
Myron simply gave him a quiet smile that sent a chill down his spine. “Alright, alright…” Latest content published on.net
Jayceon raised his hands in surrender. “But seriously, why don’t you do this yourself? You always use me as your front.”
As the car sped down the street, Myron finally replied, “She hasn’t agreed to be with me yet. I have to respect her wishes. If I made my feelings for her public now, it might only pressure her.” Respecting boundaries was the key.
Using Jayceon’s public fandom as cover gave Millie space. At least she wouldn’t push him away. She had always prioritized her career, after all.
“Oh…” Jayceon mumbled, half-understanding.
Meanwhile, Millie and the others had returned to the lounge.
Their group chat was buzzing.
Led by Seville, they launched a full-blown counterattack online.
Earlier, there had been doubts. People suspected that Serena and Millie might have been colluding somehow. But after Millie’s jaw-dropping performance, when she removed the plaster mask, all the speculation vanished.
Serena was Millie. No doubt remained.

Then, the conversation shifted to the donation fraud scandal.
Millie had nothing to do with any fraudulent donations, but a new theory emerged—
Since Brandon’s donation involved marital assets, did that mean Vivian had contributed nothing at all?
Once the speculation began, everyone suddenly realized something wasn’t quite right.
“Oh, that’s right. Millie is Brandon’s wife. So, at that auction… what was Vivian doing there?”
“From what I heard, Vivian wasn’t even on the guest list. She went with Brandon as his date.”
“I remember that going viral. Brandon rarely attends those social events, and when he does, it’s always with Millie. But that time, it was Vivian. And people simply couldn’t stop talking about it. Yeah, she definitely went as Brandon’s plus-one.”
“What about Serena? Did she go with Charles, or was she there on her own?”
“That’s where it gets interesting. Apparently, Serena had her own bidding number, which only came with an invitation card. When the donation fraud accusations surfaced, it was mentioned that there were no records under her name and number. So yes, Serena was invited independently.”
