Reading Juicy Gossip in Her Mind Chapter 415 Public Declaration +5 Pearls
The emcee, noticing Dylan's displeased expression and Cecilia's awkward demeanor, finally remembered his task. Hastily, he asked the question he was instructed to, intending to get it over with. "Hmm, the two. of you seem pretty close. Is this your girlfriend, Dylan With a smile. Dylan draped an arm around Cecilia's shoulder and declared in front of the audience, "Don't
get the wrong idea, everyone. Cecilia is my sister! She's my one and only precious sister, and I hope you'll all take good care of her."
Cecilia let out a sigh of relief, holding her head high and pulling out her chest. She knew that, despite the morning's altercation, Dylan's public declaration would render any further resistance from Janice ineffective. After all, Dylan was her brother.
However, the audience's applause and gasps they were waiting for never came. Instead, the auditorium erupted into a flurry of discussions and a cacophony of voices, creating an atmosphere far different from what they had anticipated. -What a shameless jerk!" Isabella couldn't help cursing out loud.
She glanced at Janice, whose gaze betrayed a hint of dejection despite her outward calm. Although Janice had anticipated this, hearing her brother publicly acknowledge only Cecilia as his sister was still a blow to her heart.
One and only precious little sister? How could he even say that? Does he hate me that much?
"You two simply aren't meant to be siblings. He isn't worthy of being your brother," said Carlos.
With a smile, Christopher said, "We're not his family, too."
Rosalie nodded. "Yes. You're our only sister."
Isabella smiled. "Don't be disappointed. Let's see what will happen."
At this point, Dylan and Cecilia finally sensed something was wrong.
Just then, the emcee declared in excitement, "Oh, by the way, we have a surprise for everyone today. We actually
have affeven more esteemed guest here to share his wisdom. Please welcome the current CEO of Quirk Group's Yrinas Branch, Mr. Eric!"
In an instant, the audience gasped..
"Mr. Eric is Dylan's father, the man with the highest net worth in Yrinas, right?"
"They're making an appearance together today?"
"Dylan and Cecilia look genuinely surprised. Do they not know about this?"
Hey, did you guys see the post on the forum? I think Mr. Eric's visit has something to do with it!"
"Why do I feel like a drama's waiting to unfold?"
"What a juicy gossip!"

"Yeah. No matter how I look at it, there's something suspicious going on between Dylan and Cecilia."
'Nonsense! Cecilia and Cody are a thing!"
"Yeah, spot on!"
Isabella raised her eyebrows in surprise. After all, the original plan was for Alexander to show up, but unexpectedly. Eric was the one to take the stage.
That's good, too. Let's see how he'll discipline his foolish son.
She looked at Janice, who was dumbfounded as she watched her father stride onto the stage.
The rest of the Quirks were beside themselves with excitement. After all, such a development was thrilling.
Uncle Eric finally sees his son for who he truly is.
Dylan was essentially muddling the Quirk family's lineage by making that declaration, swapping the true heiress with an impostor.
If Dylan were allowed to have his way, anything Cecilia did in the family's reputation.
Quirk family's name could damage the
Being part of the Quirk family meant upholding its honor, something Dylan, in his foolishness, seemed to overlook. He naively believed he could bestow the Quirk name upon anyone he chose, a mistake so grave it was almost unfathomable. As Dylan watched his father approach with an eerily calm expression, his legs began to tremble.
He wasn't entirely clueless-he knew Eric had overheard his declaration. Just earlier, Eric had scolded him over the phone about this very issue. The fact that he made such a bold statement, only for Eric to witness it firsthand, was a recipe for disaster. But what truly unnerved him was Eric's composed demeanor. That unsettling calm concealed a storm, and Dylan had no idea when or how it would break.
Dylan clung to the hope that his father would consider the bigger picture and refrain from airing their dirty laundry in public. This thought brought him a sliver of reassurance. No matter how furious Eric might be, Dylan knew his father wouldn't humiliate him in front of everyone. Even if Eric disagreed with him, he would openly contradict him on the spot, which could inadvertently aid Cecilia instead. At worst, Dylan thought, he would be scolded by Eric when he got home, but at least his public image would remain intact.
