Chapter 529
The online community was buzzing, while the scene was eerily quiet.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for Ivan's next words.
The man's sharp gaze swept across the room, his aura enveloping everyone here like an invisible net.
"The engagement is indeed a rumor, and the so-called engagement invitation is also fake."
Ivan's words gave hope to the hearts of countless daughters of prominent families in Watertown. Before they could rejoice, they heard even more heartbreaking words. "Haley and I are not engaged, we are married."
Boom!
The quiet hall erupted like boiling water out of control.
The reporters thought there was something wrong with their ears and hastily put down their microphones.
"Mr. Winston, are you saying that you are preparing to marry Ms. Haley?"
"Mr. Winston, when you mention Haley, are you referring to the DeRoss family's young lady, the first beauty of Watertown?"
"Mr. Winston, is the 6th of next month the wedding day for you and Ms. Haley?"
Ivan raised his hand to silence the noisy scene once again.
In a calm tone, he said, "Haley and I got married five years ago. The 6th of next month is a wedding celebration."
"What?!"
"How is that possible?!"
"I must have misheard!"
His words were like a heavy bombshell, leaving everyone dazed and speechless.
Even the constantly refreshing online community was shocked.
[No subtitles, I must have misheard!]
[Ivan spoke clearly, and he said it twice, there's no way it's wrong. He and Haley are really getting married! No, they got married five years ago!]
[Forgive me, I don't know what words to use to describe my shock!]
[But five years ago, Haley was supposed to have had a one-night stand with a man and had two illegitimate children. It's said they are Jeremy's kids?]
[That rumor was debunked a long time ago, okay?]
[It doesn't quite add up, the timeline seems off.]
...
After the scene quieted down a bit, Ivan continued with the microphone in hand, "I am not a public figure, so I am not obligated to disclose my privacy to the public. However, recent public opinion has been criticizing and humiliating my wife, so I have to come forward to give everyone an explanation. Let me say it again, Haley and I got married five years ago. For these five years, she has been living abroad with our children. If the media and online users continue to maliciously speculate and spread rumors about my wife and children, it will be considered an act against the Winston Group. The Winston Group and I will insist on holding each of you accountable legally."
The reporters at the venue, holding their microphones, were stunned, and all the questions they had prepared were now irrelevant. They had many questions to ask, but when faced with Ivan's cold and sharp gaze, they didn't dare to move a muscle...
Meanwhile, the online community was in an uproar.
[Are those two children Ivan's?]
[I previously insulted those two kids as illegitimate, will the Winston Group come after me?]
