Forced to Marry a Female Billionaire CEO-Chapter 86 - Break
Chapter 86: Break
In the neighborhood…
Cole’s expression was unreadable.
When he opened the news on his phone, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately!
He had instinctively thought that the reason for this exposure was that when Cara came to his house the night before the previous day, it was photographed by the media or reporters.
But none of those photos was in the news.
It was something else.
In front of the Bamboo Pavilion, he and Cara went in and out together.
Attached: Williams is always dating men alone.
Also, the photo of him entering and leaving the Williams Corporation at noon was there.
The photos also showed him walking out with Cara on the day he was discharged.
They were all groundless photos.
However, they could make one’s imagination run wild.
The comments below the photos were all insulting Cole, but some were being defensive too.
“But there doesn’t seem to be concrete evidence, right? I can’t see any problems!”
However, someone immediately retorted: “What do you know? Internet army, stop denying it!”
“I’m fine.”
Cole heaved a sigh of relief.
It was not the worst situation.
What he was more worried about now was that this matter would affect Cara.
When the time came, the Williams corporation would suffer a huge loss.
Most of the photos here were groundless accusations.
Although this made people think of the engagement news that Cara had released some time ago, as long as the Williams corporation denied it, they could end the storm of the public opinions.
As for why the online reactions were so intense, Cole could roughly guess…
They should be the fake commentators arranged by the Hayes and the Yeager families.
The speed at which this matter fermented tonight could be said to be explosive. It was definitely related to these two families.
Cole could even see that many media outlets had posted the news at the same time.
It was obviously planned.
These were controlled by someone.
With all these points, the Williams could retaliate against this news.
But Cole knew.
This was the flaw that Steve Hayes had left behind.
It was especially used to attack the heart!
Steve was powerful.
Cole knew about Steve’s methods. Denying the news was a simple matter for Cara.
A press conference was enough to end everything.
But…
This also meant that Cara would have to publicly express that she had nothing to do with Cole.
At this point…
Cole would be abandoned again.
Cara, who had always been domineering, would be at a disadvantage because of this denial…
And if she did not deny it, Cole’s background and identity would drag her down.
This was Steve’s killing move.
Cole fell silent.
It had to be said.
Steve’s move had caught him off-guard.
He was indeed in a dilemma.
He could sit by and watch the comments that insulted him.
However, he could not ignore the situation of the Williams Corporation.
At this moment…
His phone rang.
Cole instinctively wanted to hang up.
He had just hung up on three reporters.
However, the one who had called this time was Cara.
“Are you asleep?”
Cara asked him.
“Not yet.”
Cole answered.
“You saw it, right?”
Cole nodded. “I did.”
“Does it affect you?”
Cara asked.
Cole hesitated and shook his head. “No.”
“That’s good. Then turn off your phone and have a good sleep. The deathmatch tomorrow is more important.”
Cara did not say anything else.
Cole was silent for a while. “What chatter has there been at your company?”
He knew that Cara represented the image of the Williams Corporation.
If he did not handle the matter well this time, it might affect the investors’ confidence in the Williams Corporation.
“What chatter?”
Cara smiled domineeringly. “What sounds would they dare to make?
“First, I didn’t commit murder or arson. Second, I didn’t snatch a man. Do the chairmen of a corporation have to ask others to fall in love freely?”
Cara was still the same as before. f𝘳𝚎𝐞we𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃e𝘭.co𝘮
She was not affected by this at all.
“But…”
Cole was stunned.
“But what?”
Cara interrupted him. “Do you want me to deny it?”
At this point.
Cara sneered. “No one can force me to make any decisions.
“You just told me that you weren’t affected, and now you’re hesitating to say that you’re not affected?”
“A man’s mouth!
“Cole, don’t forget that you’re mine now.
“My people shouldn’t be so overcautious.”
Cara had called to confirm Cole’s situation.
She had been fighting public opinion since ten years ago; naturally, she understood Cole’s current state.
She had been affected back then.
Not to mention Cole now.
Cara had basically expected Cole, who had never been criticized by the overwhelming public opinion, to have different thoughts even if he did not say anything.
Under such circumstances, she had to scold Cole until he awakened.
Otherwise, those thoughts would accompany Cole to the arena…
When the time came.
He would be dead meat!
Be it avoiding this topic tonight or directly clarifying their relationship…
Cara understood that this would cause a crack in Cole’s heart.
So she had to be firm.
And firmly prove one thing.
Cole was her man.
Cole immediately snapped out of his daze.
Yeah.
What did Cara do wrong?
Nothing!
What did I do wrong?
Nothing, either.
Then what am I worried about?
Cole suddenly laughed.
I have already died once.
Why am I still so wishy-washy?
Didn’t I already agree to accompany Cara?
He laughed. “Okay!”
Cole’s words were concise.
He was no longer overcautious.
He pressed forward.
However, Cara interrupted him coldly. “What good? Go to sleep now. Why are you acting cool in front of me?”
Cole was speechless.
He laughed. “Then can’t you let me pretend? Sister.”
“No way.”
Cara refused. “Alright, I have something to do. Sleep early.”
“Sure.”
Cole nodded.
The two of them ended the conversation.
Cole pulled out his phone card to prevent the media from harassing him.
Then, he fell asleep.
No matter how huge the news in Sky City was, he did not care.
The life-or-death battle was the most important.
The oath made his heart heavy.
The explosion of public opinion had left him in a dilemma.
But at this moment, Cara’s words had pushed away the doubts in his heart.
Cole’s heart was unprecedentedly calm.

At this moment…
Abroad!
It was early morning.
Inside a house…
When a woman who looked similar to Cara but with a completely different temperament saw the news, her expression immediately changed.
“What?
“Sister is going to marry a fitness coach?”
She immediately stood up in anger and made a call.
“Book a ticket. I want to return to the country.”
***
At 11:30 pm…
The underground arena of the Sky Sea Martial Alliance…
Cara, Cole, and Hugh got out of the car.
Looking at the stadium with the signboard of the Sky City Martial Arts Association, Cole nodded. “It’s really down-to-earth.”
“Of course.”
Hugh smiled at the side and said, “The Martial Alliance modified this before to prevent talents from dying out.
“However, after the modification, the Martial Alliance became even more unable to recruit anyone.”
Cole couldn’t help but laugh. “Maybe young people aren’t interested in this nowadays.”
Cara glanced at Cole.
Fortunately,
Cole’s mental state seems alright.
The three of them then walked into the Sky Sea Martial Arts Association.
When they walked through a corridor and entered the elevator, they arrived at Basement One.
Only then did the entire underground arena quietly appear in front of Cole.
This was a venue comparable to a basketball court.
In the center was a ring that looked like a boxing ring.
At the side were the audience seats.
In the audience seats…
A group of people was already sitting there.
The Yeagers, the Hayes.
The people in the lead were Fred Yeager, who had a murderous expression, and Steve Hayes.
“He’s here?”
A hoarse voice came from another place.
Cole looked over.
Simone Owens!
