Chapter 292:

“Reaching out to a married man in the middle of the night, that is already inappropriate. Not to mention embracing him and kissing him. That is disgusting. If I were Lucas’ wife, I would give Verena a slap!”

Having glanced over the top comments, Ryan set the phone aside.

The vast room seemed frozen in time—a thick, oppressive silence settled over the space.

Eventually, the silence was pierced by the gentle weeping of Verena, which gradually grew into intense, unrestrained crying.

Verena was crouching on the floor, her face pressed against her knees, her body wracked with sobs.

Ryan, witnessing her agony, felt a combination of pity and powerlessness wash over him. He tried to move towards her to offer comfort, but the sudden, sharp pain in his back stopped him in his tracks.

Silently, he watched Verena cry, hoping that letting her tears flow might lessen her pain. Time seemed to stretch indefinitely as Verena cried. Eventually, her loud sobs faded to quiet sniffles.

“Ryan, it’s all over for me! Now that everyone sees me as the other woman, how will I ever face anyone again?” Verena’s voice broke through her despair.

Ryan opened his mouth to respond, but no words came out. He didn’t know what to say to comfort her. He couldn’t deny her words. Harold had acted mercilessly, cornering Verena with no way out. But who would dare question his approach? They were left with no choice but to bear it silently.

Ryan knew he and Verena had caused the trouble to begin with. Yet, in his eyes, the real culprit was clear—Belinda. He believed this was all her fault. He would not let Belinda get away with this! She would pay the price!

A glint of cold resolve flickered in Ryan’s eyes.

Belinda became aware of the post while overhearing her colleagues discuss it in the office.

“Harold really went to great lengths, publicly chastising Verena! Verena is now infamous—her reputation completely destroyed.”

“Indeed! It is strange for Harold to criticize someone so publicly. This is intense.”

“Harold always seemed untouchable, but now, he comes across as more down-to-earth.”

“He didn’t just target Verena—he even reprimanded his own son! He showed no favoritism. That’s the mark of a true leader. He has become my new role model.”

Belinda’s eyebrows twitched as she listened to the conversation.

“What were you just saying?” Belinda asked curiously.

The doctors turned toward Belinda and explained, “You may not be in the loop, but it’s about Verena being caught up in that scandal! Right when it seemed she was about to vindicate herself, Mr. Clark’s father intervened to ensure she would continue to be perceived as the other woman.”

“Take a look for yourself. It’s quite the spectacle!”

Belinda nodded subtly, retrieved her phone, and checked social media. The post from Harold caught her eye, and a smile slowly spread across her face.

So this was the closure Harold had promised her. Such a decisive move indeed!

In terms of impact, no matter what evidence she presented, nothing would be as powerful as Harold personally calling Verena out.
