Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 3588

Quentin invited Grandpa Evert to sit on the sofa and offered an awkward smile. "There's a reason we had Phoebe hold the press conference, of course. It's because she was the one who started this whole mess."

Quentin then recounted how Phoebe had come up with the idea, bought trending topics to spread the news, and tried to force Ashen's hand.

"When Phoebe said at the press conference that she accidentally leaked it and the media overheard, she was just sugarcoating the situation to leave herself an out. That's not the truth."

Grandma Evert didn't believe it at first, until Quentin produced an audio recording. Upon hearing Phoebe admit it with her own ears, the entire Evert family fell silent.

Fortunately, Phoebe was fine. She had likely just been startled at the time, causing her chest discomfort, and she felt better after taking some medication and resting.

The Evert family tucked their tails between their legs and went home.

That afternoon, the gallery's official Twitter account announced that Ashen would be attending the exhibition alongside Nocturne, putting everyone's minds at ease.

Wyndham Moss had assumed that given Ashen's decisive personality, she would be even more resistant to participating after being falsely accused. To his surprise, once the issue was resolved, Ashen agreed to attend. Thrilled, he called Ashen to thank her.

"Sia, thank you. Seriously, thank you so much!"

Marina laughed. "I was forced into a corner. I had to agree whether I wanted to or not!"

Wyndham chuckled. "Since when do you let anyone force you into anything? I don't believe that for a second! But whatever the reason, I'm just thrilled. Truly, thank you."

Marina thought to herself that he really should be thanking Carson Foster.

After hanging up, Marina sent a text to Carson: [Thank you for your righteous assistance, Mr. Foster!]

She had been surprised to learn that Phoebe was involved, and Phoebe holding a press conference to clarify things was entirely out of character for her. So, it had to be Carson's doing.

Carson quickly replied: [You're welcome, Mrs. Foster.]

Marina looked at her phone and couldn't help but smile.
