Amid the public scrutiny, he strode onto the stage, coming to a stop next to Galilea.

Despite Galilea's high heels, she was significantly shorter than Tyrone.

A storm of media flashes assaulted them.

The cameraman kept a steady focus on the duo, with occasional pans to Sabrina, who sat to one side of the stage.

Grinning, the host initiated his inquiry, "The audience would like to know, Ms. Clifford, where you first encountered Ms. Chavez."

The host's mandate was to broach this question.

Galilea paused, her lips tightening as she glanced at Tyrone.

"If you prefer not to respond, that's entirely up to you. But I believe the audience has made some assumptions. I know I have. What about those watching the Livestream?"

The netizens answered, "We have."

“For our next question, Mr. Blakely, when did you meet Ms. Clifford?"

Tyrone took a few moments before revealing, "During university."

"That's quite a history between you two," the host commented with implication.

The netizens reacted with stunned disbelief.

Though the pair hadn't made any formal declarations, they were considered an item by the public.

Their fans were in a state of frenzied confusion.

The orchestrators of the activity certainly knew how to play into the fans' fervor.

Earlier, their fans were discouraged by Sabrina and Tyrone's interaction, but now they could see a glimmer of hope.

"Let's move along. Next, we have a game for the two of you."

Sabrina had arranged a balloon-bursting game for Tyrone and Galilea.

Their task was to burst three balloons by embracing each other.
