Brittany never imagined her past would come back to haunt her like this: "Is it about me and Zakky, or me and Caspian?"
"Caspian."
Yuri said ominously, "Seems like someone's been plotting this."
Clearly, someone was targeting Brittany!
Her first thought was Eltham, but then she dismissed it. It couldn't be.
Eltham wouldn't risk a scandal at such a crucial moment, not with the royal family's reputation on the line!
"Dad, I got it."
After hanging up, Brittany opened her social media apps.
Her feed was flooded with news about her dating Caspian.
"Oh my god, Brittany actually dated Caspian too?"
"What kind of blockbuster soap opera is this? Her ex is the heir to Grandeur Capital, the talk of Imperial City, and her past boyfriend controlled Craneville like it was his playground. And now, she's engaged to a royal?"
"Brittany, please, start a masterclass; I'd attend on my knees!"
"Forget classes, weren't Brittany and Caspian dating when she already knew Prince Eltham?"
"So, she's juggling men?"
"That's Brittany for you, completely played out by men. I don't get what they see in her!"
"Bitter much, above?"
"Caspian's Elijah Ulbricht's right-hand man. The Ulbricht family's rise to power wouldn't be the same without his behind-the-scenes work!"
"Is it just me, or do Caspian and Brittany actually make a good couple? And looking at the photos, they've been dating way before the Lynette family's scandal. Remember when the Lynette family and the royals announced their engagement...coincidence?"
That comment was quickly deleted.
Seems like the royal family caught wind of this news too.
Eltham saw the news feed and instinctively said, "This has nothing to do with me."
He wouldn't be so foolish!
Brittany was surprised but then said, "I know it's not you."
