She's Too Busy Winning to Watch Him Cry novel Chapter 392

On her way home, Lyra noticed that Jasmine had voluntarily stepped forward on her social media, claiming she was the woman in the balcony video.

Jasmine had been backed into a corner. Elara Townsend had seen it first, assumed it was her, and excitedly called it a thrilling scandal. With her family constantly interrogating her, she couldn't handle the pressure and decided to take the fall.

Once her family breathed a sigh of relief, she wanted to stop the wild internet speculation. If people started guessing other women's names, it might impact the company. So, she simply claimed it.

Thanks to Jasmine's "honesty," Lyra's lingering anxiety finally dissipated. She secretly let out a massive sigh of relief.

After returning home, Lyra washed up and showered. Exhaustion washed over her, and she went to bed early.

The next morning, she got ready for the day. She covered her clean, natural nails with a set of Red Swan nail art.

After a quick breakfast, she gave her little nephew and niece a hug before heading off to work.

...

By evening, inside a quiet, luxurious private club.

A group of wealthy socialites lounged around, inevitably gossiping about the recent scandal.

The heiress who had originally filmed the video spoke up. "I'm already nearsighted, so I zoomed in on my phone to get a better look at the woman's face. By the time I unlocked it and opened the camera, he already had her wrapped in his arms, kissing her."

When Lyra walked in, she thought she was in the wrong room and took a few steps back.

Maddie stepped out to grab her, pulling her into a seat next to her.

"What's going on?" Lyra asked.

She had assumed it would just be Maddie, Leo, and herself.

"Darling, you're finally here," Sabrina said, throwing her arms around Lyra and hugging her tightly. "I heard you were in a car accident. I was so worried. I wanted to visit you, but Maddie wouldn't let me."

As they chatted, a few more socialites walked in, bringing the viral video back into the conversation. Someone scoffed, "Everything looks like AI these days. Would a disciplined guy like Rowan really lose control and kiss someone like that? I don't buy it."

Sabrina held Lyra's soft hand. "Lyra, do you believe it?"

Lyra's face paled. "I... don't believe it either."

Right on cue, the man of the hour walked in.

No one expected Rowan to actually show up, and panic rippled through the room. The atmosphere instantly froze. The heiress who had filmed the video went pale, terrified that he was here to confront her.

Rowan ignored the crowd. Having clearly overheard Lyra's remark, he took the seat right next to her. "Since everyone is so curious, should I give you a demonstration?"
