CHAPTER 101: CHAPTER 101: ELEANOR STERLING’S BOYFRIEND

The ladies just heard from Faye Sterling about what happened, and didn’t have a good impression of Eleanor Sterling.

Suddenly, Eleanor Sterling became the target of everyone’s scorn, with disdain evident in their words.

"Eleanor Sterling used someone else’s patented technology, was clearly abandoned, yet she still shows up openly. Really shameless!"

"Exactly, such thick skin, and she even did it anyway. Is she afraid people won’t find out?"

"Oh, this kind of woman should be eager for others to lose face, thinking the Sheffield Family won’t do anything because of face. Can she shamelessly give it out?"

"That’s not impossible, I’ve heard she became a mistress to an old man for money back then and even gave birth to a stillborn child."

"Tsk, a woman who will stop at nothing to achieve her goals could do anything. It’s not surprising."

"Back then, the Sterling Family sent her abroad to avoid the scandal, yet she dares to return."

...

Micah Moss listened to the unrestrained gossip of everyone, with anger all over his face.

When Eleanor Sterling said she wanted to come to The Sheffield Family’s banquet, he objected, feeling that after designing failures and lawsuits, it was really not suitable for her to appear.

But Eleanor insisted on coming. He couldn’t dissuade her, yet was uneasy, so he had to accompany her.

Now, hearing these people deliberately defame Eleanor Sterling, he was furious.

Micah was not typically impulsive, but he couldn’t help but step out now and loudly say, "Eleanor Sterling is not like that, stop spreading nonsense!"

Back then, Micah had looked into Eleanor Sterling’s situation, and it was nothing like what these people were saying.

Eleanor Sterling was framed, which is why Estelle Sterling was born.

As soon as Micah finished speaking, everyone immediately turned to look at him.

Faye Sterling recognized him immediately as the gigolo Eleanor Sterling brought that day.

She glanced at Alaric Faulkner, who was not far away talking to James Sheffield, and slowly smirked.

Alaric Faulkner had brought Eleanor Sterling as his date.

But Eleanor had blatantly brought another man with her. Alaric should see what a flirtatious woman she is!

Faye Sterling coldly laughed and said, "Sir, you’re Eleanor Sterling’s current boyfriend, right? I can understand you wanting to defend her.

But we’re not wrong. Eleanor certainly did a lot of disgraceful things back then.

Dad was so disappointed in her, that’s why he sent her abroad. Don’t be fooled by her surface appearance."

Faye Sterling looked proud, waiting to see how Eleanor would respond. After Eleanor left, she and Rosalie Ray had certainly spread the word well.

Eleanor’s reputation in Veridia City was already ruined!

"Are you Eleanor Sterling’s boyfriend?" Shannon Sheffield analyzed Micah Moss, curiously asked.

"I’m not..." Micah shook his head in denial.

Although he did want to be Eleanor Sterling’s boyfriend, now was not the time. He was not entirely sure if Eleanor would accept him.

When Eleanor appeared, Alaric Faulkner’s attention was already on her.

Just now, seeing Eleanor take out the invitation he gave her, his deep eyes flashed with a somber hue.

His invitation was different from others, recognizable at a glance.

A duplicitous woman, she still used it after all.

Alaric Faulkner heard Shannon Sheffield’s question and Micah’s response, his thin lips curling with a mocking coldness, appearing barely satisfied.

But this woman dared to openly bring another man, making people misunderstand the relationship between the two, which was truly annoying.

Shannon Sheffield scoffed, mocking with no filter.

"Since you’re not Eleanor Sterling’s boyfriend, why speak up for her? Could it be that you like her? Eleanor’s not clean, are you sure you want to like such a woman?"

Micah’s face turned dark, wanting to retort.

Eleanor watched Micah getting more agitated, reached out to hold him back, signaling him not to be impulsive.

Hearing her, Micah gradually calmed down.

Eleanor had said to trust her, but listening to these people demean her made him infuriated.

He could only imagine what kind of environment she faced back then, and she still dared to return to Veridia City, certainly with a lot of courage.

Eleanor was stronger than he imagined, able to face everyone’s ridicule and accusations without changing her expression.

Micah retreated behind Eleanor, silent now, leaving her to handle the scene.
