Their love was forbidden by ethics and law. Everyone on the Internet despised it.
Under the circumstance, how would Gavin deal with his relationship with Wendy?
Not only did the reporters want to ask about it, but Gavin also wanted to answer this question.
Gavin coldly glanced at all the reporters around there and said word by word in a loud and clear voice, "I won't let Wendy go."
"When I pursued her, I didn't know that she was my sister. Now, I'm in love with her. Even if I know that she is my sister, I can't live without her. I would never be separated from her unless she no longer likes me or staying with me becomes a kind of torture for her."
He looked so determined and devout, as if he were making an eternal vow.
Before being surprised, the reporter had continued to ask Gavin, "What do you think of the public's voices on the Internet?"
"I don't think too much." Gavin said coldly, "In case that anyone is really troubled by my affairs, please stand out. I'll apologize to them. In addition, I hope everyone can figure out that I made the first move and I'm the one who always takes the initiative. If we are wrong, it's completely my fault, and it has nothing to do with Wendy."
The reporter wanted to ask more questions, but Gavin had already entered the company's building under the escort of the security guards.
The video of Gavin's interview was soon posted on the Internet, and the major media had also released their reports. Although they didn't dare to clear Gavin and Wendy's name, they still emphasized that Gavin and Wendy hadn't known that they were related by blood when they were in love.
Thus, those who were focused on attacking Wendy had to be quiet for a moment.
Gavin had said that he took the initiative in his relationship with Wendy all the time. It was he who pursued Wendy, and it was also he who was unwilling to let her go now. Wendy was not wrong at all.
If they still accused Wendy of seducing her brother and destroying the "relationship" between Gavin and Blake, it would be too obvious that they were targeting Wendy. Sooner or later, they would be exposed.
After the people hired by Rowdy stopped making remarks, some rational comments gradually appeared on the Internet.
Some people said that no matter whether Gavin's words were true or not, he could stand out and take all the blame on himself in the teeth of the storm, which was enough to prove that he really loved Wendy and that he was a real man.
Some others said that although the relationship between Wendy and Gavin shouldn't have happened, it didn't hinder anyone. Those who cursed Wendy's death in her boots went too far indeed.
Blake's expectation that Wendy would be condemned by tens of thousands of people was stopped because of Gavin's words.
The worst thing was that the reporters came to her again and asked her if she had made a deal with Gavin.
Gavin had already revealed the truth. She could only admit that she had never been in a relationship with Gavin.
"It turns out that you and Special Assistant Gavin were never in a relationship!" The reporter asked sharply, "What did Special Assistant Gavin mean by saying that you breached the agreement?"
"..."
Blake didn't dare to answer.
She breached the agreement she had made with Gavin because she was confident that she could win Gavin's heart.
However, she overestimated herself and became what she was like today.
A female reporter saw through Blake's guilty conscience at a glance and asked sharply, "Miss Lin, you made a deal with Special Assistant Gavin because you wanted him to fall in love with you, didn't you? You liked Special Assistant Gavin and wanted him to completely belong to you, so you used the red packet to frame Wendy. Your selfishness was the cause of the red packet incident, wasn't it?"
Blake's face turned pale instantly, and she denied crazily, "No! It's not the case! Don't talk nonsense!"
"If it's not the case, how would you explain your statement that you were in love with Special Assistant Gavin when you had just made a deal with him from the beginning to the end?"
The reporter's question completely drove Blake into a desperate situation.
She desperately denied it, but she couldn't explain it. In the end, she screamed out of control and ran away with her hands covering her ears.
It turned out that Wendy never targeted Blake because of jealousy, nor did she destroy the relationship between Blake and Gavin.
On the contrary, Blake told the truth.
The attacks against Wendy became less fierce, and the public's attention was shifted to Gavin.
Blake ran to Rowdy and said unwillingly, "I failed to achieve my goal! I want Wendy to be utterly discredited and be despised by everyone!"
Rowdy ignored her hysteria and said with a calm look, "Wendy has been utterly discredited. Two days ago, she was also indeed despised by everyone. Your goal has been achieved."
"No, not yet!" Blake grabbed Rowdy's hand and said, "You have to help me teach Wendy a lesson at least once!"
Rowdy shook her off and said, "If you want to teach Wendy a lesson, you can do it yourself. Also, my goal has been achieved, Don't pester me again. Otherwise, you will be more embarrassed than you are now!"
Blake could not believe it. She looked at Rowdy with crazy eyes and asked, "What's your goal?"
He wanted Gavin to leave Lambert Group.
Nowadays, Wendy had been disdained by everyone in Arlington, and the public's attention was diverted to Gavin. The shareholders of Lambert Group would soon be unable to sit still, and they would ask Brian to expel Gavin.
After leaving Lambert Group, Gavin would find that he and Wendy could no longer live a normal life in Arlington.
Thus, Gavin will be forced to take Wendy away and go to a place where no one knew them.
As long as Gavin left Lambert Group, Rowdy would achieve his goal.
Now, his goal had been halfway through the progress bar, and Blake was of no use to him anymore.
Only then did Blake realize that the reason why Rowdy helped her was that he simply wanted to use her.
But why? Why?!
Rowdy paid her 100,000 by check and said, "Thank you for your cooperation. You can go now. Never show up again. Otherwise, you won't even get the check."
Blake really wanted to tear the check into pieces and throw it at Rowdy's face.
However, she needed the money for her future life.
In the end, Blake held the check tightly with reluctance and left the old house of the Kent family.
Ruicheng leaned on the old-fashioned wooden armchair and laughed with satisfaction.
If he further played tricks with the shares of Lambert Group, although it would not cause any material damage to Lambert Group, it would be enough to scare the old shareholders of Lambert Group.
By tomorrow, Gavin would be expelled by the shareholders together.
Wendy, who was far away in the apartment, also realized Gavin's situation. She felt chilly all over her body.
It turned out that when Gavin said that he could solve it alone, he was ready to transfer the pressure of public opinion and attacks onto him.
Finally, there were not so many people attacking her on the Internet, but he would be questioned in the company!
Once it affected the interests of Lambert Group, the board of shareholders would immediately propose to fire him.
"No!"
Gavin loved his job very much, and Lambert Group and Brian could not live without Gavin.
Wendy called Gavin with trembling hands, but no one answered.
When she was at a loss, she thought of Connell, who had said that he could help her. She grabbed the phone almost as if it was her life-saving straw, and then she dialed Connell's number.
At the same time, Connell was in a dilemma in his father's office.
Qin Lin looked at his son, who was sitting on the sofa and holding his head, and finally persuaded, "You'd better think twice about it. Now that Gavin and Wendy are facing such huge pressure from public opinion, it will be the best chance for you to separate them if your aunt Yunjin stops them. Didn't you always like Wendy? If she cannot stay with Gavin, you will have a chance."
Connell scratched his head, struggling harder with himself.
He knew the truth, and he could really help Gavin and Wendy.
However, his father was right. This was the only chance for him to get Wendy. Once he helped them, Wendy would never belong to him.
But if he did not help, Wendy would be in great pain.
"It's really... fucking hard to make a decision."
Young Master Wesley was about to grab off his beautiful flaxen curly hair when his cell phone suddenly rang.
Upon looking at the caller ID, Connell answered the phone as soon as possible. Wendy's crying voice came from the phone. "Connell, it's me."
"I know." Connell felt guilty for no reason, but it did not affect his concern for Wendy. "What's wrong? Tell me slowly."
"Can... can you help Gavin?" Wendy choked and said, "He cannot leave the company."
"What happened to Gavin in the company?" Connell comforted him softly. "Don't cry. Tell me what's going on."
"Someone wanted him to leave the company and even Arlington. That's why our relationship was exposed. Someone is playing tricks behind all of this."
Connell frowned, said several sentences to comfort Wendy, and contacted the insiders of Lambert Group to inquire about the situation.
Then he was informed that Brian, Gavin, and several of the shareholders were in a meeting. The shareholders were worried that Gavin would affect the business image of Lambert Group, so they asked to expel Gavin. Brian was trying his best to refuse.
It was said that Brian's attitude was very strong. In the end, the shareholders decided that if there was any gap between the stock price now and the closing price of Lambert Group in the afternoon, Brian had to immediately change a special assistant.
Connell remembered that Wendy said that someone had deliberately exposed the relationship between her and Gavin. That person wanted to destroy Gavin first and then Lambert Group.
The group of Lambert Group' shareholders had obviously fallen into that person's trap.
Young Master Wesley got excited in an instant. Now, he was the only one who could save Lambert Group!
After hanging up the phone, Connell smacked her hand down onto the table and stood up. "Forget it! Dad, I'll contact Aunt Yunjin!"
Qin Lin looked at his youngest son, who had been arrogant and naughty since he was a child, and asked, "Have you thought it over?"
"Let Aunt Yunjin decide!" Connell said, "Maybe she can't bear to see it after knowing everything and tell the truth? Then what right do I have to selfishly hide everything and make Wendy suffer?"
"You brat." Qin Lin scolded him with a smile but felt relieved. "I'm your father, but I've never seen you think so much for me. Also, I have to remind you, if your aunt Yunjin is soft-hearted, my son will lose to Winfred's son, like I lost to Winfred more than 20 years ago. Hey, this..."
Connell snorted proudly and said, "You failed to get Aunt Yunjin, but you won my mother's heart later, didn't you? Aren't you afraid that I'll complain to my mother?"
Qin Lin waved his hand. "I'm afraid. Go ahead."
Connell dialed Dolly's number. Apparently, Dolly was very surprised to receive a call from him. She asked with a smile, "Connell, why do you call me so suddenly?"
"Auntie," Connell asked in a low voice, "have you heard about what happened to Wendy and Gavin recently?"
"Wendy and Gavin?" Dolly sounded nervous. "What happened to them?"
"Auntie, they are both fine now, so don't worry. Listen to me slowly." Connell asked politely, "Is it convenient for you now?"
"It's convenient." Dolly couldn't help panicking. "Connell, take your time to tell me what happened to Wendy and Gavin."
Connell tried to use precise words to clearly tell the whole story, including the false relationship between him and Wendy, the deal made by Gavin and Blake, the car accident that happened to Wendy, and the consequent romantic relationship that Gavin finally couldn't help establishing with Wendy. He also included the fact that their relationship was exposed and talked about their current situation.
