Chapter 49 - Pathetic

Emmaline POV

I laugh as soon as Benjamin leaves. He takes my haters more personally than I do.

Honestly, it's cute.

Still, he has a point. If people are going to talk, I might as well give them a reason.

I open my gallery, checking the pictures he favorited. They're perfect.

One is a candid shot of me on the balcony, looking effortlessly stunning, wrapped in soft evening light. The second is a mirror selfie, Daelan in the background looking at me like I personally created the moon and stars.

Dramatic. But cute.

Then, for the finishing touch—chaos.

I scroll through my messages and screenshot two conversations.

One with my father, where he casually agrees to buy me a ridiculously pricey artifact with zero hesitation.

The other is Daelan agreeing to something similar.

I caption it:

"Taking over the reins."

Let them choke.

Instant Chaos

Within minutes, the comments start rolling in.

First, Choi Jihun.
