Chapter 22 I Can't Keep a Low Profile
Suny finished washing up and went downstairs. Erik had already made breakfast, she went straight over to the dining table and sat down: "Did you read the hot search this morning?"
"Mm."
In fact he hadn't been up long when Alicia's call came through.
Yesterday he had been photographed with Suny when he returned, and he had also been secretly photographed during dinner, and now the whole internet was rumouring that he had been kept by Suny and was already living inside Suny's house.
Of course, both of them were adults, although Erik was a bit younger, but they were single, so what if they said he was kept by a woman? Was that forbidden?
The thing that had been fermenting on the internet, besides the point of "keeping a man", was naturally the matter of Suny and Kevin and Louis a few months ago.
The first time Kevin openly expressed his love for Suny on the internet against the pressure of so many girl fans going to unlike him, and a large number of people on the internet tacitly agreed that the two were together.
Suny's identity had been exposed long before she had married Austin. The villa she lived in and the car she had today were both over a million, these things, naturally, were also tacitly accepted as gifts from Kevin to her.
Now that Suny had taken Kevin's money and "kept" a young man, there was naturally a large group of people online who were outraged.
However, this was not the final revelation, there were also so-called informed sources who have come forward to say that Suny broke up with Kevin after making a fortune out of him, and then got together with a newcomer from the same company as Kevin, Louis, and the mysterious woman who was photographed at airport with Louis last time was Suny.
According to Suny's speed of "changing boyfriends", she has probably broken up with Louis now.
The source also made a point of evaluating Suny from an objective and fair point of view, saying that he could actually understand Suny, who had spent three years on Austin in the early years, loving but not being able to get it, having no hope for love after the divorce, which was not to be blamed.
At the end, that person in the know also made a point of praising Suny's drive to clean up her act and that sufficiently bewitching face.
Once that person in the know broke the news, Suny, who was originally only attacked by Kevin's fans, was now also attacked by Louis's fans, and even fans of Erik, a cover model who hadn't quite made his debut yet, scolded her.
Things had developed to the point that when Alicia called Suny, a number of people had already suggested Kevin to report Suny for cheating on him.
Seeing Erik's tepid reaction, Suny couldn't help but said, "Aren't you afraid I'll ruin your career?"
"Have I ever been popular?"
The young man looked up at her, his indifferent eyes seemed to contain a few smiles inside.
Suny was stunned for a moment: "You are open-minded."
After breakfast, Suny took Erik straight to Phantom.
She had been here several times during this period of time and the receptionist recognized her, so Suny had a smooth journey and led Erik straight to Alicia's office. "Suny, if you don't come, I'll have to fight with them myself!"
Seeing her, Alicia, who was nestled on the sofa, stood up at once and directly hugged Suny.
Suny pried her away, feeling amused, "What's the rush?"
She glanced back at Erik: "You brought Erik here and didn't arrange him properly?"
Alicia was a bit vain: "Because Ashley suddenly came back yesterday."
Suny hummed, "You brought him back, you can't just leave him alone. Let Joan take him with her, consider him your junior brother."
How could Alicia dare to retort, she nodded her head repeatedly, "I'll let Joan arrange it!"
With that, Alicia immediately called Joan.
Joan had long known that Alicia had got back a handsome boy, but she was still shocked when she saw Erik.
This face was really a waste of such good looks if he wasn't filming.
Joan happily led Erik away, leaving Suny and Alicia alone in the office.
Alicia handed the tablet to Suny: "Look how the internet is cursing you. I've asked the PR department to track down the person, but it's not easy to clarify."
Suny looked at her askance: "You know it is not easy now? In the beginning, didn't you say you wanted me to take advantage of Kevin and Louis to make it clear to those who don't think well of me that I'm living a beautiful life after the divorce?"
Alicia pursed her lips, "I was wrong!"
Suny was too lazy to talk with her, slide that tablet screen, read a few comments and sighed, "It seems I can't keep a low profile."
Alicia was excited as soon as she heard this, "Suny, are you finally going to reveal the truth that you're a billionaire tycoon?"
"Get lost!"
Suny glared at her, "First, find out the person behind the scene and the sneak peek, things will ferment a bit more, and at night time, you ask Louis and Kevin to send out a Weibo post." "Post what?"
"What else can it be posted? Didn't they say that I cheated on them? If they know that I am the major shareholder behind Phantom, what else can they say?"
Alicia suddenly realized, "Wonderful, Suny, you are fantastic!!!"
The thought of a bunch of people being humiliated made Alicia excited.
Suny tilted her head, her eyes smiling seductively, "You are the one said it is great to have those people humiliated!"
"Yes, yes, yes! I told you to go public a long time ago, but you're so low-key, those people really think you married Austin for his money!"
Hearing that, the smile on Suny's face faded a lot: "I don't want them to covet my money."
It was very reasonable.
At this time, Suny's mobile phone rang, she glanced at it and raised her eyebrows slightly, "Secretary Lee?"
"Miss Holland, Mr. Shaw contacted me today and said that he is willing to accept your terms, I will process the contract this afternoon and send it over to your villa, do you think it's okay?" This was really good news!
Suny hooked her lips and smiled: "Yes, thank you so much, Secretary Lee."
"Not at all."
Rosa Lee on the other end of the phone pursed her lips and hesitated: "Miss Holland, do I need to take care of what is happening in the internet?"
"No, I'll just let Alicia handle it."
Rosa was still at ease with Alicia and Suny's relationship: "Okay, then I won't bother you."
After hanging up the phone, Alicia pounced on her as soon as she could, "You're in a good mood, Suny, what big project have you negotiated again?" "Nothing big, I just invested in a new company."
Alicia couldn't help but howl, "Which time you didn't end up making a huge profit of your investment?"
Suny had a very good eye for investment and had made a lot of money over the years.
To be honest, Austin was rich, but it was not certain who was richer!
Suny was in a good mood, "Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner."
"Then we'll have French food! Michelin restaurant!"
"Granted."
Alicia immediately packed her things and got up to go out with Suny, while by now the internet was overwhelmed with curses against Suny.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
