The headlines of the major media outlets the next day were dominated by the feud between Lucas Warren and Sebastian Sheldon.
The content was almost identical: Sebastian Sheldon was beaten by his ex-husband and sued him.
After Faye Townsend finished reading the news, she tossed the iPad aside.
She took out her phone and called Roman Hughes. She asked Roman, "Did you see the news about Sebastian getting beaten last night?"
"How could I miss it? The news is explosive."
Faye pouted, "So this time, was her beating real or fake? She’s faked it so many times, I can’t tell what’s true and what’s not anymore."
"In my opinion, it’s real. If it weren’t, she wouldn’t dare so openly accuse the Warren Family."
Faye raised her eyebrows, "I saw in the photos that Sebastian was holding an injury report from your hospital. Can you help me investigate it?"
"There’s that? I didn’t notice it."
"Yes, because there are so many news reports, you probably didn’t look closely."
Roman crossed his arms, "If there’s an injury report from our hospital, then it’s definitely real. Our hospital’s injury reports cannot be faked."
"What I’m worried about is that she might have forged it based on a template elsewhere."
Roman nodded, "That’s possible too. But why are you so concerned about this matter?"
"Even though Lucas Warren’s scandal doesn’t mean much to us, he’s still a Warren Family member.
I worry about the authenticity of the news affecting the Warren Group."
"Wow, you’re becoming more and more competent as a wife."
Faye curled her lips, "Exactly, so stop talking and quickly help me investigate it. I’ll wait for your call."
After hanging up the phone, Faye lightly tapped her fingers on the table.
She was calculating her next steps in her mind.
Within a few minutes, Roman Hughes called back.
Faye quickly picked up, "How is it?"
"The speed at which you answered the phone, it seems..."
"Focus on the matter at hand," Faye interrupted him.
Roman laughed, "Okay, focus on the matter. The injury report is real.
Last night, Sebastian came to our hospital for an injury examination overnight.
It seems the beating last night wasn’t easy on her.
I just can’t understand, what was Lucas Warren thinking?
Clearly, he’s already divorced from Sebastian. Why go and hit her?
Isn’t he just creating news for himself?
If I were Sebastian, I’d probably sue him too."
Faye scoffed, "People to be pitied also have their own faults.
Maybe Sebastian did something to deserve the beating.
Like you said, they’re already divorced. If Lucas Warren wasn’t driven to his limit, why would he hit her?"
Hearing Faye say this, Roman laughed, "You’re still holding a grudge against Sebastian, huh."
"Don’t talk nonsense. I’m just speaking objectively.
Just like you’re making wild guesses based on your thoughts, I’m making wild guesses too.
You think Lucas Warren is crazy for hitting Sebastian.
Why can’t I think that Sebastian provoked Lucas?"
Roman found himself at a loss for words at her string of reasoning.
He nodded and laughed, "Okay, okay, you’re right. I was the one talking nonsense, happy?
You’re quite the little lady."
Faye laughed a little, "Alright, since I’ve asked what I wanted to ask, I won’t disturb you anymore. You get busy."
"Sure, let me know if you need anything."
Faye gave a sly smile and hung up the phone, feeling relieved.
The bigger the conflict, the more it benefits her.
Even though it might slightly affect the Warren Family.
But as the old saying goes, ’You can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing a child.’
Giving up a bit of minor profit is just to gain a greater return, so it’s worth it.
Now, she must remain calm.
The timing must be just right to burn the bridge from under them.
Faye opened a document and focused on her work.
At dinner, Hunter Warren mentioned that he had received a request for an interview from reporters today.
Faye teased him, "What, has the media noticed your charm and wants to launch you into stardom in middle age?"
Darnley looked at her, then at Hunter, "Dad, you shouldn’t take on jobs that put you in the spotlight."
"Why not," Miya objected, "Isn’t Doodoo’s dad in our class a movie star?
I saw Chengcheng asking him for his dad’s autograph."
"That’s because Chengcheng is childish."
Miya put down her chopsticks, unhappy, "No, he’s not. I’ve seen Doodoo’s dad on TV, and he’s really handsome."
