Chapter 709: Clarity about the office rumors

"I did my best. You're on your own now."

Everyone's mouths fell open, watching Axel run away as fast as he could. He ran so swiftly that they could almost see smoke rising from beneath his feet.

Meanwhile, Heaven's face twitched in dismay. She wasn't the only one involved in this rumor! And she hadn't done anything to deserve such attention.

"Ugh…" Heaven pinched the bridge of her nose, only to raise her brows. When she looked up, she noticed that everyone's attention was already fixed on her.

"Pepsi?" Belle, who was struggling to understand the situation, looked at Heaven with utter confusion. "What's going on?"

"Uh… Belle, the thing is…" Heaven hesitated as she pondered her next words. "Did I mention that my husband was upset about the rumors involving my brother and me?"

Belle lowered her head slightly while her brows furrowed.
