A moment later, the few people at the dining table turned on their phones.
Probably because it involved Antoine, this article was published all over the Internet to get the trending
headlines.
It was not only on a certain social media app that idolized celebrities but even ordinary browsers
released news in time.
However, the headline of the news made the faces of the four people at the table darken.
“Best Actor Adonis became a home-wrecker for love”, “The Hale family’s adopted daughter cheated in
marriage”, “The Hale family’s adopted daughter was chased out”, “Madison and Leo get a divorce.
A few posts with Madison’s name dominated the trending searches, followed by dark. purple words
hinting how hot the tag were.
When Madison clicked it, the app was stuck for a long time.
Even so, she quickly figured out the ins and outs.
Although the video was heavily watermarked by the media, and the figure was a little blurry, it was
possible to recognize the two people hugging each other.
Especially Antoine. He had debuted for ten years. No matter how tightly he wrapped himself up, his
fans would recognize him.
Moreover, he did not even wear a mask when he came to pick up Madison last night. Moreover, his
face was facing the camera. He was just short of being photographed up.
close!
It was not hard to tell that this video was a few minutes of surveillance footage.
It was obviously transferred from Creek Court.
Apart from the owner, Leo, they couldn’t figure out who else could pull out this surveillance video. It
couldn’t be that the security guard of the villa area took the risk of breaking the law and sold the
surveillance video to a marketing account, right?
“Is Leo a real man? He even sold such videos. I used to respect him for being a man, but I didn’t
expect him to be such a despicable person!”
Joe was so angry that he could not even eat. He put down his fork.
Everyone was in the business world and had reached this position. They knew what

methods they would use and even appreciated their opponents.
In the end, Leo directly schemed against them, which made them despise Leo.
This feeling was like being forced to eat a fly. It was so disgusting that they even wanted to throw up
the meal from the day before.
Samuel, on the other hand, was calm. He had already taken out the computer he carried with him.
“I’ll suppress the popularity online first. You guys think of a public relations plan first.”
Even if this matter was fake, if there were too many people talking about it, it would still affect Antoine’s
reputation.
If this kind of news was not handled promptly, it could leave a stain that lasted a lifetime. Even if
clarifications were made afterwards, there would still be plenty of people who didn’t believe it.
Even if most people believed Antoine, there were still people who insisted that Antoine was a hateful
man.
Antoine had been doing whatever he wanted in the industry over the years and had offended many
people. Moreover, his resources had always been top-notch over the years. Countless people were
eyeing him and wanted to step on him to get to the top.
Moreover, this matter involved Jessica. He could not be careless.
However, this wave of traffic was too big and the scope of the spread was too wide. It was impossible
to stop the rumors from spreading among the masses. It was not even on the same scale as the last
Rose Garden incident.
If they deleted the posts, a new topic would arise, and it might even arouse the rebellious thoughts of
some netizens.
Over the years, Antoine had no scandals. The excessive praise his fans gave him was met with an
equally intense backlash online, with all kinds of harsh words surfacing.
Even worse, someone had photoshopped Antoine’s photo into a black-and-white portrait.
When Madison saw this post, she couldn’t stand it anymore. With a cold expression, she almost threw
her phone away!
She got up from the chair and gripped her phone tightly. Her voice was low and h oa rse.
“Samuel, help me register an account and publish my divorce agreement. Also, state that Antoine
doesn’t know anything about my marriage. I’ll go out for a while and come
Chapter 53
back later.
With that, she left without waiting for her three brothers’ opinions.
The meaning behind her words was obvious. She wanted to take all the responsibility on herself.
Antoine was not young anymore. In the early years, many fans were anxious about his marriage, even
though his private matters had never been posted online.
While most celebrities had fans that saw themselves as girlfriends or wives, Antoine’s fans had long
since evolved into ‘mom fans. They wouldn’t mind if news of him dating.
came out.
The huge response this time was definitely because the word ‘home-wrecker’ did not sound good.
Even if he could still receive resources in the future with this title, he would still be ridiculed by the
public. His career would almost be ruined.
If they wanted to thoroughly clear up the situation, they either needed to reveal that he and Madison
were siblings, or, as Madison suggested, pushed all the blame onto her.
As for the latter, she could even make Antoine a victim – a love idiot who had been deceived by a
woman.
Who wouldn’t be heartbroken and deeply in love with someone who was handsome and capable and
be miserably deceived by a woman in the end?
But if he really did that, he wouldn’t be Antoine anymore.
Not to mention that he would not agree, the Daves family’s other brothers would not agree either.
If Antoine did that today, he would probably be kicked out of the Daves family and get removed from
the family tree!
However, the suggestion was made by Madison. Antoine should be the one making the choice. Even
Samuel did not move. He looked at Antoine silently.
Antoine, who was sitting at the dining table, still looked like a rich young master. He ate at a leisurely
pace until the food in his mouth was swallowed. He took a tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth
before speaking slowly.
“Samuel, announce our identities.”
“Antoine, are you serious?”

Although it was an expected answer, Samuel felt that he still needed to discuss it with Jessica.
After all, Jessica did not want her identity to be made public. The Daves family’s identity was too
troublesome. If it caused some unnecessary trouble, the gains would not make up for the losses.
Especially those vampires from the Hale family. Who knew if they would pester Jessica?
Antoine’s cold face was filled with seriousness. “Other than publicizing my relationship with Jessica, I
don’t think there’s a better way, right?”
If he really listened to Madison without making it public and blamed it on her, who would bear to do so?
He couldn’t bear to see her being scolded by so many people online.
He would rather take all the blame.
But it was clearly not what the Internet said. Why did he have to lie?
They were innocent and were cousins. Why should they follow the marketing accounts. and make up
an even worse reason?
Being honest was the best PR
“I agree with the announcement of the relationship between Antoine and Jessica, but…”
Joe also agreed.
He paused and looked up. “Do you want to tell Jessica?”
“I don’t think that’s necessary.”
Antoine smiled. He picked up his fork again and tasted Madison’s cooking.
“After all, I’m different from you two. We haven’t been exposed as family.”
When he first debuted as an actor, his family berated him for a long time, accusing him. of not pursuing
a proper career and instead becoming a lowly actor. At one point, his father, Eric, even denied
acknowledging him.
As a result, when Antoine became popular ten years ago, there was no information about him on the
Internet. The fans all thought that Antoine was an orphan.
He gave himself the stage name Adonis. During his rebellious phase, he felt like he was just an
afterthought to his family.
Chapter 33
He felt wronged and pitiful.
It was only after he starred in a modern historical drama that his father changed his view, started to
accept his identity, and even financed him to make better films.
Joe’s company was able to develop so quickly because of Antoine.
However, in order to save himself the trouble, Antoine used his former stage name and continued to
hide things about his family.
In other words, even if he announced his relationship with Madison today, they would not be able to
find out anything about the Daves family, unless the Daves family came out to announce this news.
“In that case, Antoine, I’ll register an account for Jessica. You can post it later.” Samuel was already
prepared.
Antoine nodded. “Okay.”
