“It’s a cold day. How would you like to have a cup of coffee with me, Miss Lind?” Kent stepped on the
snow to get to Janet, but then he kept his distance and kept his voice calm and respectful.
Janet could not refuse because he had helped her again just recently, so she pointed to somewhere in
the distance and said, “There is a coffeehouse right around the corner. This will be my treat for all the
help you rendered the last time.”
Kent was rather amused, so he asked, “Do you have to keep things so formal all the time? I wasn’t
expecting repayment.”
Janet simply stared at him and shrugged her shoulders. She said, “In that case, there’s no need to go
and get coffee with you. Can I go home now?” Turning around, she attempted to leave.
“Can you ignore what I just said? I was joking,” Kent said, obviously flustered by her rejection.
Janet bit her lips to stifle her laughter as she thought, ‘Why does he look so silly?’
The two of them walked into the coffeehouse. While they were in the coffeehouse, Janet paid more
attention to her phone than Kent even though they were sitting opposite each other, so he said, “Hey, I
am sitting right here, but you have been checking your phone since we got here. That’s rather rude,
you know?” “It’s a cold day. How would you like to have a cup of coffee with me, Miss Lind?” Kent
stepped on the snow to get to Janet, but then he kept his distance and kept his voice calm and
respectful.
When she heard that, Janet raised her head and smiled. “I am so sorry. I was just checking in with my
husband.”
The disappointment in Kent’s voice was obvious as he asked, “So you are on good terms?”
“Of course.” Janet’s excitement was obvious in her voice and she didn’t realize she had answered
without any hesitation.
Kent’s eyebrows were raised as he ordered two lattes before handing the menu back to the waiter.
Suddenly he asked Janet, “Who has been helping you all this while? Who’s the person to you?”
Janet bit her lower lip and asked, “What do you mean? It’s just a rumor, and there’s no need to take it
seriously.”
“I really think someone is backing you because someone brought Emani down right after you were
cyberbullied. That was pretty obvious, wasn’t it?”
“No. I think someone else had been plotting against her, and they just took that opportunity to bring her
down,” Janet said with a sigh. “It could’ve also been a reporter who just wanted the spotlight.”
Kent realized Janet was really naive. He pressed his elbows against the table and sat up as he said,
“You are really simple, aren’t you? If there’s something I know about the entertainment industry, it is
that ordinary paparazzi will never get their hands on so many big secrets on one star. Even if they do,
they would usually let it out immediately for their readers to enjoy. However, for someone to have found
out so many of Emani’s secrets in such a short time, he must be a big shot.”
“How is that even possible?” Janet managed to look calm, even though Kent’s words got to her.
Her first thought was that it could be Brandon. He was the only person she could think of who was that
powerful and would try to help her. Still, she refused to believe he would do this for her. When she
thought about the fact that he had helped her again and again, however, Janet began to wonder if it
was really him. She decided to ask him about it later.
When he saw that she was lost in thought, Kent knew that his words had gotten to her. He laughed out
loud and joked, “If you have such a powerful supporter, why haven’t you left your loser of a husband? Is
it because you don’t actually love your backer? Not a problem though. You’ll find a way to fall in love
with this backer of yours I’m sure. Or is it because it’s just pure business from the very beginning? In
that case, I can be your new backer and you can marry me. That’s also an option.”
