Chapter 218

• After Lily successfully calmed her jealous husband, Ethan left Parker's office with a stern warning to resolve the rumors immediately.
• Parker, not wanting to provoke Ethan further, wasted no time drafting a post on his account to explain the situation. In his message, he clarified that there was nothing more than a professional relationship and friendship between him and Lily. Similarly, Lily addressed her fans, stating that Parker was a good friend and her boss, and there was no romantic involvement between them.
• However, instead of quelling the rumors, their statements seemed to add fuel to the fire. While some believed their explanations, many others were convinced that this was merely an attempt to cover up a secret relationship. The speculation online grew even more intense, creating a ripple of new chaos.
