Alexander, could push me aside just to catch Lilian when she was about to fall—so why couldn't he push me aside now to shield her from malicious gossip?
After all, they were only rumors on the internet.
They couldn't possibly hurt me… right?
Sophia sensed my silence and became even more arrogant.
"Director Alicia," she said with a mocking laugh, "do you dare to take this bet?"
I said nothing.
Instead, I calmly ended the call.
Because I already knew the answer.
This was a losing game, and there was no point in playing it.
Even if Alexander didn't know about this right now, if he found out later… he might still choose to stand on her side.
But that didn't mean I would simply swallow this humiliation.
I needed an explanation.
Fortunately, the head of the photography studio had already sent me the surveillance footage from the makeup room that day.
There was no sound, but the video was clear enough. Anyone who watched it would immediately understand what had really happened.
