When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster

Chapter 296: Faye Turner’s Heart Shattered

"Mr. Lancaster, is the ’Eternal Love’ jewelry series related to Mrs. Lancaster? Did you both decide on a lifetime commitment at your first meeting?"

"No." He replied coldly.

"Why did you choose a quick marriage? Is there something different about Mrs. Lancaster compared to other women?" the female reporter asked softly again.

Some of their conversation was edited out.

Adrian Lancaster laughed angrily and bluntly said—

"She’s the woman my grandfather chose. My grandfather likes her, and he’s the person I care most about, so I married her. It’s that simple. Do you have anything else to ask?"

His tone was lazy, clearly carrying some impatience.

This segment, after being reposted by various media, has been magnified infinitely and excessively interpreted, focusing on President Lancaster’s subtle expression.

Many people started worrying about this marriage and waited to see how things would unfold.

At this moment, Faye Turner was sitting in the large office of the design department, holding her phone, and saw this interview that had been reposted millions of times.

Seeing Adrian Lancaster’s dismissive and offhand answer about their relationship, Faye was shocked, and then felt an icy chill in her heart.

Compared to him blaming her, being angry with her, warning her, compared to her feelings of guilt and inner conflict, Faye Turner was now a hundred times more upset!

This sadness felt a bit like suffering in silence, with no words to express the bitterness.

In the entire large office, all the designers saw today’s news, and they were almost shocked out of their seats, given that it was President Lancaster’s first interview! It was rare indeed.

The most attention-grabbing point was the segment at the end of the interview regarding feelings!

There were so many points of interest!

However, the large office in the design department was eerily silent!

No one discussed it!

Everyone occasionally glanced at Faye Turner, wanting to observe her reaction and discern her thoughts.

The ongoing public discussion is causing people to have new perspectives on this relationship, no longer as envious as before.

All false appearances! They’re all false!

Upstairs, in the president’s office.

When Dustin Shepherd saw the edited clip of President Lancaster’s response about feelings, he furrowed his brows slightly, feeling incredulous, with his heart falling to the bottom!

Why is it like this?

He quickly grabbed the documents and went downstairs, worried about Faye Turner! Wondering how she’s doing, she must be very sad, right? And she’s pregnant!

In the elevator, Dustin Shepherd’s mind was in a blur.

As he walked out of the elevator, he happened to meet her in the corridor.

Worried, Dustin Shepherd stopped in his tracks, and Faye Turner also halted, their eyes meeting.

A silent silence spread, his eyes full of heartache.

Faye Turner’s feelings were very complicated now; she knew everyone must have seen the interview, this man before her was no exception.

Dustin Shepherd wanted to say something, to comfort her a bit, but didn’t know how to start for fear of hurting her.

At this moment, apart from the heartache shown in his eyes, he seemed unable to offer any help.

Faye Turner withdrew her gaze and walked past him, as Dustin Shepherd’s heart bled...

A tearing pain!

He loved her so much but couldn’t offer any help, not even brave enough to speak a word of concern, fearing it might cause her further harm.

Shortly after, Dustin Shepherd heard such remarks—

"President Lancaster married her because of the old man? That’s too ridiculous, marriage shouldn’t be a game!"

"I always thought they were very much in love, turns out it’s all pretenses! Pretending! President Lancaster finally couldn’t take it anymore? Spending every day with someone you don’t love, even sharing a bed, who could handle that? Divorce is inevitable!"

"But Faye Turner is pregnant, will they get divorced? Relationships in wealthy families are incredibly complex!"

Dustin Shepherd listened to these remarks, turned slowly, and stared angrily at the two female employees!

He was about to step over to reprimand them when he heard Serena Sutton’s righteous voice—

"What are you gossiping about? Does gossiping about the president’s relationship here raise your salary? Whether they divorce or not, what does it matter to you? If they divorce, will he marry you?"
