“I’ll keep it to myself,” Kristy assured.
Then, looking directly at Carole, Kristy stated, “You now owe me a favor.

“Sure, if you need anything, give me a call.
”
Carole stood, took her bag, and departed.
Kristy leaned back, taking in Carole’s graceful form.
Surprisingly, this lady seemed elegant and innocent, yet there was a hidden cruelty about her.
“Lindsey, you’ve got so many enemies.
I wonder how long you can last,” she murmured to herself.
In the office of Lindnita Artists Agency, Lindsey sat browsing her Twitter, dumbfounded and amused.
Previously, the real dynamics of Sumner and Xiomara’s relationship were unexplored.
The masses echoed the broadcasted narrative.
Now when it was said there was actually no romantic relationship between the two, their fans all tried to blame and question her… Didn’t today’s internet users have any ability to think for themselves? They just followed the herd and did whatever others did and said.
If they shipped Sumner and Xiomara, shouldn’t there be some trust?
With a heavy sigh, Lindsey felt overwhelmed.
The issues seemed endless, yet she knew she must endure.
But based on her talk with Sumner the previous night, she had resolved to steer clear of Sumner and Xiomara.
Yet, the paparazzi captured her and Sumner at the engagement event, stirring up a scandal about them being together till late, causing a headache.
The company’s phone kept ringing, with many partners calling for clarification.
If Sumner and Xiomara’s relationship turned out to be fake, the agency would be responsible for any losses.
Most of the cooperation was for both Xiomara and Sumner.
The company would have to cover any losses if their relationship turned out to be false.
With a worried look, Nancy hurried into Lindsey’s office and leaned on the desk.
“What’s our next move? The internet is abuzz with the saga involving Sumner, you, and Xiomara.
Do we go public with a clarification? Whose side of the story should we address first?”
Lindsey replied with a shake of her head, “Those are two separate matters.
I can’t dictate what happens between Sumner and Xiomara.
We can’t pry into the private lives of stars, nor do I have the authority or reason to meddle; my role is to play along with their next steps.
If things get worse, our only choices are to offer compensation, give refunds, or end some contracts.
”
Nancy was taken aback.
She hadn’t anticipated Lindsey’s decision to not intervene.
With a hint of reluctance, she mumbled, and said, “I’ll go talk to them myself.
”
But as she turned to leave, Lindsey held her back, saying, “No need.
I’ve already discussed it with them, and that’s the end of it.
They likely have their perspectives and methods of handling this matter, so it’s not our place to press them.
”
Nancy’s brow furrowed in disappointment, yet she understood the finality of Lindsey’s decision.
Nonetheless, she asked, “Then what’s our plan for dealing with the photos about you and Sumner? And what was the real purpose behind that party? Perhaps you should clarify things.
At least to the people on Twitter and the media.
”
Lindsey, believing in transparency, saw no need to hide anything.
Thus, she drafted a brief post about the previous evening’s event: it was a celebration of a friend’s engagement, both to her and Sumner, urging the media to refrain from wild speculations.
To lend credibility to her explanation, she included photos of the event space she had captured, sharing these details on social media.
However, this did Little to quell the speculations of those rooting for Sumner and Xiomara’s union.
They questioned her silence on the nature of her relationship with them, implying hidden motives through their comments.
“It seems the love between Xiomara and Sumner was all a fake.
Lindsey’s silence on their relationship speaks volumes, doesn’t it?”
“Come on, Lindsey Stewart, stop hiding and give us some answers!”
