Chapter 23 Press Conference
The news about Darren having an affair became the talk of the town.
The next day, the Quantum Group held a press conference, and Darren showed up in person.
The reporters were all eager to interview Darren.
Fortunately, the security guards controlled the situation.
"Mr.Sampson! Is it true that you cheated on your wife? When did you and Sierra start seeing each other?"
"Mr.Sampson! We saw pictures of your wife in an intimate position with a mysterious man.What do you think about it? Are you two really divorced?"
"Mr.Sampson, the stock price of the Quantum Group has plummeted.The shareholders are furious.Do you have anything to say about it?"
"Mr.Sampson..."
"Mr.Sampson..."
Darren took the microphone, and the noisy reporters fell silent in an instant.He took a deep breath and looked at the reporters, who were eyeing him with scrutiny.
"Claire and I have mutually agreed to divorce.As for Sierra and me, we have been friends for years.Considering both of us were single, we both decided to date.It's no big deal."
With that, Darren stood up and left.
The reporters were taken aback.
A moment's silence elapsed before the reporters got into a heated discussion again.
Darren was a man of few words.He was a resolute businessman, who was serious about work.He didn't comment on the sensational news but clarified his relationships between Claire and Sierra.He had divorced Claire and was dating Sierra now.
Darren's composure seemed to take everyone by surprise yet again.He left after making his point.
The reporters chased after Darren.
They were unwilling to let him go.
After changing cars several times, Darren arrived at an underground parking lot.
Then, he got into a BMW car.Sierra was sitting in the back seat, hitching with sobs.
"Darren, I'm sorry.It's all my fault."
Darren rubbed his temples and let out a weary sigh. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
"I don't know what to do now."
There wasn't intimacy of any sort in the photos of him and Sierra posted on the internet.иσνєℓєвσσк. ¢σмHe could have clarified they were just friends.
The problems would end once people’s excitement faded a little.
But Darren had another plan in mind.
"Now that I have announced that we're dating, people will stop accusing you.I'll send you abroad.You can relax there.You can raise the baby if you want, and I'll transfer a sum of money to you every month.If you don't want to take any responsibility, then give the baby to me.I'll raise the child."
Sierra's face turned pale.She understood what Darren meant.
He held a press conference to protect her reputation.
Darren had announced she was his real girlfriend.He was divorced, and she was single.
No one could question their relationship now.
Besides, there was no evidence of Darren cheating on his wife.He had neither admitted nor denied it.
Now that he had announced Sierra as his girlfriend, the netizens might criticize Darren.But he didn't seem to care about it.
Sierra's acting career would remain unaffected.
With the Quantum Group's and Darren's influence, she would even reach a better position.
However, Darren didn't want to marry her.He only wanted to be responsible for the child.
Neither marriage nor the child could bind Darren.
After all, he wasn't the father of the child.
Darren didn't know it yet.
Seeing that Sierra was silent, Darren didn't speak either.
He told the driver to start the car, leaned back on his seat, and closed his eyes to rest.
The car trundled out of the underground parking lot.
Sierra's jaw clenched and unclenched as she observed Darren's face through the rearview mirror.She had assumed she would have a chance after driving Claire out of Darren's life and making him believe he was the father of her child.
However, Darren didn't want to give her a chance.
Sierra wasn't ready to give up.
After all, it was a golden opportunity.She couldn't afford to miss it.
