One of the world’s leading conglomerates, Montgomery Holdings, suddenly made a splash, with the legendary prodigy chairman personally sharing a post that sent social media into a frenzy.
Previous negative comments about Giselle were instantly drowned out by waves of excitement, including a fair share of romantic speculations:
Ms. Harvey is so stunning, and I heard Chairman Montgomery is quite the charming young man himself. Could there be something more to him stepping in for the president of a newly established subsidiary?
Hey, insider here! These two have been childhood friends for years!
Aww, childhood sweethearts! I’m shipping it!
A genius chairman from a prestigious family and a high-society debutante, childhood sweethearts—it’s like a fairytale come true!
This is the real deal, and I’m here for it!

Mila stared at these comments and quietly closed the trending topics.
…
After a moment of silence, Miranda cautiously spoke up, Mila, are you okay?
She had hoped to cheer her friend up by showing Giselle’s troubles, but this was not the outcome she expected.
Lysander must be out of his mind!
What a ridiculous situation!
I’m fine, Mila replied evenly, even managing a small smile. I don’t care about these things anymore. Let them have their fun.
Miranda knew her friend well. If Mila said she didn’t care, she truly didn’t. Her friend had always been someone who could let things go, someone daring and decisive, and Miranda admired her for that.
Mila was about to chat more with Miranda when her phone buzzed, a missed call notification flashing across the top of the screen.
Hey, I just got a call. I’ll talk to you later.
But that wasn’t all Giselle wanted.
If only the dress could be returned and worn again, the online attacks would naturally dissipate!
Although the public narrative was reversed, the issue with the dress remained unresolved. She could never explain why the Moonblush Roses gown ended up on her.
Still, Giselle knew Lysander had already shown considerable attention to the matter. Pushing further about the dress would be ungrateful.
Wiping her tears, Giselle offered a sweet smile and thanked him, then coaxed Adrian to eat more vegetables.
Only then did Lysander smile.
The dining room scene was one of warmth and harmony, which Charles and Mrs. Harvey observed with understanding smiles, leaving the space intact for what looked like a close-knit family.
Looks like we might have good news soon, Charles remarked with a chuckle.
Either way, having a grandchild would solidify things, Mrs. Harvey replied with a twinkle in her eye. No rush. You see how Lysander dotes on our daughter; it’s only a matter of time.
