She pushed open the door in bewilderment, only then saw the anger that flashed across Cyrus’s face, and she walked up as she asked in confusion.
However, Jordan suddenly grasped her hand, with a worried countenance, he instructed Grace to bring Cyrus back to his room, only then did he hand over his smartphone to Charlotte.
Charlotte took the phone in confusion, on the verge of asking what was going on, only to understand the moment she saw the trending news.
She squinted her eyes as she skimmed through the hot topics.
"Latest news, Justin Battleson has actually always loved Evelyn Curtis. Even after the scandal broke, he hurriedly rushed to Evelyn’s home begging for her forgiveness. But Evelyn refused to forgive the unfaithful Justin. Amidst the difficulty of their separation, Evelyn even bawled her eyes out at the parking lot. Turns out, Mr. Battleson has always been fond of Evelyn, which must be why he has always been reluctant to marry... all seems to be for Miss Curtis..."
The comment section was rife with all kinds of theories, an idle netizen even reviewed the entire scandal, boldly deducing that someone intentionally tried to seduce Justin Battleson.
"Seduce?" Charlotte laughed mockingly. She recalled the words she heard Justin utter in his office that morning and couldn’t help but feel the harsh irony now.
"Sis, I think you shouldn’t worry about this too much, don’t take these internet rumors to heart."
Seeing Charlotte’s face becoming increasingly pale, Jordan couldn’t help but softly say, he patted her on the shoulder reflexively.
"What?" Charlotte woke from her trance, a slight smile appeared on her face as she softly replied.
"Nothing, nothing. Those news are all fake, comments from netizens are just manipulative tactics, don’t believe them. Sis, go make something for us to eat, look at us we are nearly starved to death."
Jordan feigned a relaxed laugh. He swiftly pulled back his phone and put it away, blinking innocently.
"I know, I’m not taking it to heart, you watch the children for me, don’t let Cyrus use the computer all the time."
Charlotte knew Jordan was trying to comfort her, she didn’t want to say much more, so she went along with what he’d said.
Jordan laughed and nodded, his smile vanishing entirely the moment he saw Charlotte walk into the kitchen.
He squinted, reading through the news intensively again, somewhat irked.
However, he caught sight of Cyrus’s room door which was slightly ajar. He couldn’t help but smirk, then he promptly made his way to Cyrus’s room.
"The door isn’t locked, come in."
Before Jordan even knocked, he heard Cyrus’s deep voice from within the room; he couldn’t help but marvel at the kid’s sharp hearing.
He coughed lightly and touched the back of his head awkwardly, mumbling under his breath.
"Uh, well, your uncle is here. If you need a shoulder to cry on, I’m right here."
Cyrus looked at Jordan with disdain.
Then he threw him a bottle of water before he finally spoke in a low voice. The rightful source is novel·fiɾe·net
"No need, I’ve already hacked their website, in about three minutes this weibo post will be gone."
The room was dim, rendering the light from the computer in front of Cyrus noticeably bright. The light illuminated his innocent yet determined face, it wasn’t a great feeling for Jordan to see this.
He strode forward, switching on the light and the room instantly brightened.
"Your mother told me to watch you and keep you off the computer, you’re making it hard for me by doing this openly, you know."
Cyrus calmly looked at Jordan for a while before he finally said in a deep tone.
