Chapter 79: Is it not enough?
The news of Lorcan George carrying Blanche Capra out of the hotel came out quickly.
This news picks up where the last time York Charlie of the Charlie Group publicly announced Blanche Capra’s identity as his girlfriend, and then a series of things that happened on the set of Blanche Capra’s work shoot in order for Blanche Capra to rebut her mother.
In the public eye, Blanche Capra has been extremely lucky to be York Charlie’s woman, but now that she is involved with Lorcan George, heir to the George Group, public morals are directed at Blanche Capra herself, and publicity is spreading about how the Charlie Group and the George family are fighting over a relationship between the two major groups in the business world. Charlie Group and the George family over a showbiz model.
It was Lorcan George’s father who was actually the most outraged by the news.
old George had a hard time convincing Lorcan George to start learning how to handle business, and no one was more happy and relieved than he was when he saw his only son, who was full of expectations, finally put away his playfulness and embarked on the right path. Lorcan George’s efforts during this period of time even made him feel that everything he did was right and worthwhile.
And now, that hidden in Lorcan George’s heart of that part of the idea has come back. Moreover, he even appeared in the news directly with that woman! What the Charlie Group and the George family fight, in the end are standing on the side of the Charlie Group to smear the George family! Lorcan George is just starting out, this kind of news will simply cause personality damage to him, will affect his prestige in the George family and even the external Lorcan George is just starting out and this kind of news will be a character damage to him, which will affect his prestige in the George family and even the credibility of the external cooperation!
All in all, if this matter is not resolved properly, whether in the present, short-term, or in the long-term future, it will be extremely damaging to Lorcan George and the George Group as a whole.
In a fit of anger, old George locked his son in his room before he could leave the house!
Do what? Do what? He spent half a day yesterday with that Blanche Capra scoundrel, and today he’s all dressed up! He wouldn’t even get dressed up to meet a client the other day! He also said that there is no need to be so elaborate and not to go on a blind date, he is now good, dressed as if he wants to go directly to the wedding!
old George here more and more angry, Lorcan George is also helpless and anxious.
It was useless how he shouted and kicked the door from inside!
“I’ll tell you the truth, I’m not going to let you out this time no matter what, I’m not going to let that scourge Blanche Capra ruin you!” old George snapped at the door.
old George could not have realized that just as he arrived at the door of the office, there was a large group of reporters waiting there. The journalists had been waiting here for a while and had come early in the morning to stop people, and this time before they could see Lorcan George, the hero of the scandal, they swarmed over towards Lorcan George’s father.
old George was annoyed when he saw a large group of reporters pointing cameras at him, and the questions asked by these reporters were the last ones he wanted to hear.
“President George, may I ask you what you think about the headlines that broke out this morning regarding your son, young master Lorcan George’s scandal with Miss Blanche Capra?”
OLD George frowned and said, “People shouldn’t speculate, it’s just empty talk.”
“But as you can see, that photo is real, at that time Young Master George was hugging Miss Blanche Capra out of the hotel!” Another reporter chased after him.
old George murmured, “A photo doesn’t mean anything, you guys only saw Lorcan hugging Blanche Capra, have you checked if Lorcan was forced to do so? He only did it out of moral obligation as a friend, and you saw Miss Capra fainting at the time, but as to why Miss Capra fainted, we have to ask her what she was thinking.”
Lorcan George’s father’s comment was a huge hit and the media made a big deal out of it.
Lorcan George was the one who helped Blanche Capra out of moral obligation to his friends, and Blanche Capra was the one who was York Charlie’s girlfriend, but secretly pestered Lorcan George.
It’s not like Blanche Capra doesn’t check her phone or surf the internet, and even though she stayed home from the time she was brought back by Lorcan George after she fainted yesterday, until this afternoon when wave after wave of news came out against her, she was pretty much the first to know about all this public opinion about her.
There was a lot of fuss out there, and Blanche Capra didn’t know what to do for a moment.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Yesterday she was talking to Shireen Miller when she suddenly fainted and knew nothing more. By the time she woke up it was later that night, and as soon as she opened her eyes she saw Lorcan George at her side, those peach eyes looking at her without blinking.
For a moment she was confused.
Then Lorcan George smiled at her and said, “You’re finally awake, and I was going to say I’d have to take you to the hospital if you didn’t wake up.”
Blanche Capra then thought back to the moments before she fainted, “It was Shireen Miller? What did she do to me?”
“Shireen Miller drugged you and made you pass out just as I was passing by and saw it, so I brought you out.” Lorcan George said clearing up her confusion.
Blanche Capra nodded, “I slept like a long time.”
Lorcan George suddenly just looked her over carefully, concern in his eyes, “By the way, are you not feeling well anywhere? Do you need to go to the hospital?”
Blanche Capra looked at him with amusement, “What for? You think Shireen Miller gave me some kind of poison?”
Lorcan George was furious when he heard this and said with some complaint, “Shireen Miller can’t have anything good in mind when she comes to you, why are you so careless? She’s been plotting against you for a long time now, you shouldn’t approach her so easily from now on.”
Blanche Capra laughed softly, “I’m not that weak, this time it was indeed an accident, I have my measure.”
Lorcan George saw that she didn’t listen to advice, and even more so that she didn’t know the seriousness of the matter, somewhat anxiously, he held her hand, “Don’t try to be strong, this time if I didn’t see it, I don’t know what other unimaginable things she would have done to you, and she even presumed to pull me in to deal with you before.” At this he gave another laugh of mock disdain.
Blanche Capra was momentarily caught up in what he said after that, after all, she had been a close friend for many years, and didn’t even realise that her hand was being held in his, she frowned slightly and asked, “She’s pulling your strings?”
Lorcan George holding her hand hand did not dare to move, the heart is very nervous, afraid that she will throw him away. Hearing her question he nods his head gently and looks at her with an extremely gentle smile, “Would you say that’s funny?”
Blanche Capra laughs, “Of course it’s funny, she’s so naive.”
As soon as Blanche Capra said this she realized that she was sounding too taken for granted, as if she had expected Lorcan George not to hurt her in any way. Her heart stopped being open and she began to panic a little, as well as feel some guilt and remorse.
The next moment she realized what was happening and jerked her hand out of his.
Lorcan George just watched as those small, silky, delicate hands slipped out of his own, with some friction and some speed. He felt his heart instantly drained.
Blanche Capra said, somewhat remorsefully, “I’m sorry, Lorcan, I shouldn’t have said that just now.”
Shouldn’t have taken your good looks at me for granted like that, and Shireen Miller couldn’t have been more naive in her behaviour then she certainly was.
Lorcan George didn’t understand for a moment and asked her in surprise, “Shouldn’t have said what?”
Blanche Capra bowed her head without speaking. How could such a thing be said again? Where did she get the right to speak freely of his heart? Where did she get the confidence that he would die for it?
How could she have so many selfish and self-serving thoughts?
Lorcan George as if he understood something, suddenly stunned, he slowly spoke with a bit of bitterness, “Do you think my feelings for you are not sincere enough, not enough … to reject a Shireen Miller?”
