Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 457

At 9 AM, my door was swarmed by an eager throng of media reporters, buzzing with curiosity and

speculation. "What in the world is going on? Why the sudden call for a press conference?" they

murmured among themselves.

"Must be something to do with Medsafe Liyah Inc., right? Looks like they can't hold up any longer."

"Aaliyah has always been a strong woman. Hard to believe Medsafe Liyah Inc. has come to this. What

a turn of events! Wasn't their celebration just a few days ago? Is this karma?"

"The Dawsons are always a handful! Last time it was Aaliyah saving Jaylan's reputation.. She's not

trying to do that again, is she? Why else would she pick her own front lawn to meet the press?"

"She's just a puppet, trying to clean up this mess? Give me a break. Who'd believe that? We've got

photos, we've got proof – there’s no way she can clarify anything this time!"

"Let's just wait and see."

With a nod to Hannah, I strode confidently out of the door, which she promptly opened wide. I stood

before the media, dressed in a plain dress, no makeup, my face bare and my eyes shadowed with dark

circles.

I faced the crowd, and after a moment that seemed to last an eternity, I declared that I had officially

hired a lawyer to file for divorce and start a brand new chapter in my life.

Sure enough, a reporter questioned the current state of Medsafe Liyah Inc. and whether I would take

over the company post-divorce. I told them the truth; Medsafe Liyah Inc. was no longer in my hands.

I answered some more probing questions, hesitating several times, painting a picture of unbearable

circumstances that left me no choice but to sue, and hinting at Jaylan's infidelity, leaving them dangling

with suspense.

At that moment, Hannah cut the conference short, announcing its end. Before the press could recover,

she shut the doors, and we retreated back into the safety of the house.

The moment the door closed, Hannah and I exchanged a knowing smile.

Those reporters were fast – before they were even escorted off the property, the news had exploded

across Goldenvale Town.

I didn't rush out. Instead, I lounged on the sofa, scrolling through my phone, watching the reactions

unfold.

Still, I was puzzled. The news of Hazel's death had yet to break. It seemed Jaylan was intent on

suppressing the story.

But it’s only a matter of time. How could I keep such a juicy bit of gossip to myself?

I was willing to face the backlash; I was determined to turn the Dawson household upside down.

Meanwhile, Logan called, his voice filled with laugh. "The tax folks have slapped Medsafe Liyah Inc.

with a notice. They can't cover the taxes. Jessica's thirty million hastened their downfall!"

I told Logan to add fuel to the fire - "The nanny, who’s the mistress of the head of Medsafe Liyah Inc.,

got into a spat with his sister, and in the chaos last night, Hazel took a tumble and past away in the

hospital while the nanny ran away!"

Logan laughed uproariously. "What a headline!"

"I'm just adding to my odds of winning the divorce case, that's all," I said boldly. "Don't forget, there are

plenty of witnesses at the hospital. Can he really silence them all? Besides, Jessica is still full of

energy, right?"

"Give it up! Jesper has locked Jessica up. Heard that her husband, Palmer, tried to take off with two

hundred and fifty grand cash, but Jesper caught him and brought him back – broke his legs!" Logan Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

was almost choking with laughter.

"Are you sure?" Logan teased.

Just then, another call came in – it was Camilla. Draмanovels.cоm

I quickly told Logan, "Tell Catherine I can't make it these next few days and to get some rest."

"Okay!"

I ended the call and picked up Camilla's persistent ring.

Her voice came through, laced with intrigue, "Aaliyah, I've got something to ask you!"
