Chapter: 198
Absentmindedly, Bennett examined his collar, revealing a smudged

Lipstick mark.

Half an hour later, Bennett stepped into the room and Breck announced, “Look who's finally here! Told you Bennett would join us tonigh’

A smile spread across Duncan's face.

“Yes, yes. He agreed to join us tonight because of you, Breck." As he spoke, he extended a glass of wine to Bennett.

Accepting the drink, Bennett settled in his seat, adjusting his collar as he asked, “Is it just me or it is really hot in here? What's the thermostat set to?"

Grover, observing his actions, inquired, “Bennett, what's that on your collar?”

Bennett looked puzzled.

“Is there something on it?"

After adjusting the room's temperature, Breck strode over to Bennett. "Am I seeing things? That Looks Like a lipstick mark! Bennett, when did you start Letting women near you?"

Bennett was known for his disinterest in women.

Brushing off Breck's hand with visible annoyance, Bennett retorted, “That's just my wife's Lipstick. Must've brushed off on my collar."

"That's a sneaky way to flaunt your romance," quipped Duncan.

Breck chimed in, "This is a revelation. What about your soulmate?"

Did he stop care about that woman?

Grover pondered aloud, “Could Claudia actually be that soulmate Bennett has been searching for?"

After a thoughtful pause, Breck pieced it together. "You came here tonight to rub your blissful marriage in our faces, didn't you?" Bennett had overstepped the Line

Casting a glance at Breck, Bennett responded, “Weren't you the one who asked me to come?"

This left Breck speechless.

If Bennett's sole purpose was to flaunt his marital bliss, Breck wished he hadn't insisted on seeing him that night.

For an entire day, the Internet was abuzz with the tale of Anthony and Delilah's hotel rendezvous. The Nixon family made every effort to quash the scandal, but their attempts proved futile.

Henry's blood boiled with rage, while Rachel sobbed bitterly in anger. Ever since Anthony's wedding walkout, the Nixon family's reputation had been taking a nosedive.

In Linmarsh's high society, the Nixon family were now the punchline of many jokes. Claudia, coming home, found Jace engrossed in a book in the Living room.

The news about Anthony was widely spread today. As Anthony's former father-in-law, Jace was well aware of what had happened.
