"What are you really after?" Jake began to question, even suspecting that it might be a corporate spy deliberately sent to sow discord between him and his sister.
Although both siblings had experienced heartbreak, the sight of them presenting a united front comforted the rest of the Quirk family.
The buzz had already begun among the people around. After all, the matter was too sensational. Brody was considered a star contestant, he had a certain level of fame, yet he was involved in such a scandal.
"I had found it odd before when Brody was with us, he never talked about his girlfriend. We thought he was drawn to her because of money, so he didn't want to discuss it. Little did we know, he wasn't interested in her at all. On the contrary, he had eyes for her brother!" "Now that you mention it, I remember. Initially, Brody was quite indifferent toward Ms. Eula. However, ever since the time Ms. Eula's brother came to pick her up, and they met, Brody started to show enthusiasm."
"Brody was truly taken in by Ms. Eula's wealth, and even more so by the charms of Ms. Eula's twin brother. Talk about killing two birds with one stone!"
"So, our team leader is gay?"
"Of course. Look at him dating Ms. Eula's brother online. He wasn't exactly looking to gain anything from him other than company."
The idle chatter finally pierced Liana's heart as if she had been provoked. She began to hold her son and shout, "Stop spouting nonsense! How could my son possibly be that kind of pervert? He likes girls. This wealthy and powerful sibling pair must be manipulating my son!"
The moment her words fell, Brody, whom he was holding, instantly stiffened.
"Madam, even if you're trying to distort the truth, at least find a plausible excuse," Christopher mocked. "Here we have clear evidence, and the two people involved are still in the dark. Who's manipulating whom now?"
"No, no, it's you." Liana immediately pointed at Jake, accusing her vehemently. "It must be you who shamelessly seduced my son. My son is into women. If it weren't for your deceitful face, identical to your sister's, luring him in, my son would never have..." "Your son tricked me! I'm into women! He deceived me by pretending to be a woman!" Jake roared, unable to contain his frustration any longer.
"If you think being attracted to men is perverse, then you're only insulting your own son. It has nothing to do with my brother!" Eula immediately defended her brother. "My brother was deceived by a man, and he hasn't even complained about his misfortune!" Liana was already losing control of her emotions, tears continuously falling. "No, it must be a conspiracy, no... Son, tell me, you don't like men. Tell me!"
Suddenly, Liana grabbed Brody's shoulders, shaking him frantically as if she was forcing him to swear an
Oath to the heavens.

maybe he just wanted to better understand his girlfriend's family. However, all these excuses seemed far-fetched. After all, it was undeniable that his account had been involved in an online romance with Jak and no amount of justification could change that. Listening to the surrounding chatter, he realized that his career was probably over. Not only was it due to the disdainful looks of those around him, but also because Eula would no longer be naive enough to sponsor him. Moreover, having offended this pair of siblings, he might face retaliation and be ostracized.
Facing his overbearing mother once again, he truly felt exhausted.
As if he had been unshackled, he gently pushed away Liana, struggled to rise, and said to Jake, "Everything else may be a lie, but my feelings for you are genuine. I truly like you."
This lowlife really has some nerve by choosing to confess his feelings at such a time. He can't possibly think that this makes him seem deeply romantic.
Jake wouldn't feel any deep affection. He just felt goosebumps all over his body.
After all, this person had just been holding hands with his sister a moment ago, and now he was confessing his feelings to him. Even though he knew that it was his online love affair, he still found it quite nauseating at this moment. He gritted his teeth, his fists creaking with tension.
Brody, however, turned to Eula and said, "I'm sorry, Eula, but...you never cared whether I actually loved you or not, right? You were content just being my girlfriend, weren't you? So, I just...I allowed myself to fall in love with someone else."
Eula was first taken aback, then burst into laughter. "You really think you're the victim here, don't you? Should I be grateful that you gave me a chance? If I'd known you were gay from the start, I wouldn't have bothered with you at all!"
