Chapter 451

She sounded annoyed, clearly bristling at being questioned.
The reporter could tell she hadn’t heard about Logan’s statement yet, so he deliberately set her up. “But Anastasia was admitted to Global Harmony Medical Institute with a perfect score-her grades were even better than yours! If she couldn’t cure Mr. Harrison Lancaster, what makes you so confident, Ms. Brennan?”
Lauren scoffed inwardly, her face openly radiating arrogance and disdain. “So what if the grades look good on paper? That doesn’t mean the person actually has any real talent.”
Her words dripped with sarcasm. “Why don’t you ask Ms. Sterling yourself? If she’s so brilliant, why can’t she even help her own husband?”
It was a blatant insinuation that Anastasia’s academic record was a sham, but the reporters barely registered it. After all, the old rumors about Anastasia cheating were nothing compared to the bombshell about to drop.
Lauren had barely finished speaking when someone blurted out, “Ms. Brennan, have you seen Logan’s response regarding Mr. Harrison Lancaster?”
Logan’s response?
Lauren’s heart skipped a beat. A bad feeling swept over her.
Before she could react, the reporters pressed on-
“Logan said Mr. Harrison Lancaster never invited you to consult, nor did he ask for your help. He says you’re just chasing clout. Care to comment?”
“Logan also said it’s Anastasia who’s been asked to treat Mr. Harrison Lancaster. What’s your take on that, Ms. Brennan?”
The questions landed like thunderbolts, leaving Lauren reeling. She stopped dead in her tracks. “What?!”
The reporters’ voices grew sharper, their barely hidden glee laid bare-
“Ms. Brennan, is what Logan said true? Did Mr. Harrison Lancaster never invite you, and you just showed up to get attention?”
“If Mr. Harrison Lancaster specifically asked Anastasia for help and dismissed you, doesn’t that prove her credentials are real, and that she’s actually better than you?”
As the barrage of cutting questions rained down, Lauren’s face flushed red and white with a mix of shock and fury.
-Let Anastasia treat him? Has Mr. Harrison Lancaster lost his mind?! This update ıs available on.net
Anastasia, meanwhile, had been
keeping tabs on the whole situation. Watching Lauren’s disheveled
appearance on the livestream and scrolling through the online chatter, she saw that Lauren’s own fans had gone completely silent once again. With a satisfied smile, she set her phone aside.
“Tsk, how pitiful.”
That’s what you get for trying to ride her husband’s coattails. Hmph!
Harrison, watching Anastasia play the part of the cat who’d caught the canary, found her all the more endearing.
The corners of his lips curled up in a small, involuntary smile.
But when he glanced through the online comments, seeing the doubts cast on Ana’s abilities-people insisting there was no way she could cure him-Harrison’s expression darkened.
“Logan, take care of this. I don’t want to see anyone questioning Ana again.”
It wasn’t just that his Ana actually had the skill-though she did but even if she didn’t, none of them had the right to talk down to her!
Fairhaven’s social media was in an uproar.
People were embarrassed for Lauren-who could have imagined that the once- admired prodigy would fall from grace so spectacularly?
So what if she was adopted? She couldn’t help where she came from. But trying
to latch onto Mr. Harrison Lancaster and then being publicly exposed-how humiliating was that?
Even the most devoted Lauren fans, who had been so vocal before, were now conspicuously quiet Many were left wondering how could their shining Lauren have done something like this?
And of course, everyone else was talking about Anastasia.
Anastasia, treating Mr. Harrison Lancaster! The news was nothing short of explosive-it left the entire city stunned.
