Back in Alexander’s office, he received a WhatsApp message from an unknown number.

"I have some information about Gerald. Meet me in room 203 at the Grand Royale Hotel."

Alexander hesitated, staring at the message. Gerald’s name triggered an immediate wave of suspicion. He hadn’t heard anything substantial about Gerald in a long time, and any whisper of information was enough to make him pay attention. Still, this could easily be a trap. His thumb hovered over the screen as he typed back:

"Who are you, and why should I trust you?"

The reply came almost instantly:

"You’ll only know if you come."

Alexander gritted his teeth, his mind racing. The vague message felt off, but curiosity gnawed at him. He couldn’t risk missing out on something critical about Gerald. He shoved his phone into his pocket, grabbed his suit jacket and car keys, and stormed out of the office.

One hour later…

The internet exploded with trending gossip news:

The media was on fire with speculation. The tabloids latched onto the few images they had—Alexander Evans, the powerful young master of the Evans family, stepping into the hotel room with Jessica Jason, the beautiful heiress of the prestigious Jason family. In the picture, Jessica was barefoot, smiling warmly as she welcomed him into the suite. The door closed behind them, and that was all it took for the rumors to spread like wildfire.

The moment the photos hit the internet, they went viral. Every major news outlet, social media platform, and gossip blog was on fire with the same breaking news:

Accompanying the headline was a candid snapshot: Alexander Evans, the dashing heir of the Evans fortune, stepping into a luxurious suite at the Grand Royale Hotel while Jessica Jason, the breathtaking heiress to the Jason empire, stood barefoot at the entrance, welcoming him. The door closed behind them, and no one knew what transpired after. But that didn’t stop the media from crafting their own narratives.

The headlines continued:

“Evans & Jason: A Match Made in Heaven? Wealth, Beauty, and Power United!”

“Wow, they were caught in a hotel room together? I’m sure this is more than just business! What’s next? An engagement announcement?”

The praise for Alexander and Jessica’s supposed “relationship” was deafening, and the internet seemed to be rooting for them, ignoring any potential scandal or the fact that Alexander was a married man.
