The producer's gaze shifted betweenand Elsa, filled with confusion.
"Uhm..." He hesitated, clearly at a loss for words.

My apologetic tone only made Elsa's face flush with anger. She panicked, desperately trying to justify herself. "I didn't! Her outfit really was cut up!" Elsa turned to the producer, her tone growing louder.
However, the producer simply offered a polite smile and chose not to press the matter. He redirected his attention toinstead. "Since you're ready, let's begin the recording." With that, he gestured forto take the stage. Before stepping up, I glanced back at Elsa, meeting her furious expression. With a smirk, I winked at her provocatively.
Elsa fumed, but with no way to vent her anger, she could only stand there, seething.
I walked onto the stage, greeted the host, Celeste Whitmore, and took my seat. Like most talk shows, the interview started with the usual introductions.
Then, Celeste smiled atwith a polished, professional expression and asked, "Ms. Brown, from what I understand, the new energy project was originally your idea. Is that true?" I nodded. "Yes, I proposed it to the board." She continued, "What made you choose this project? From what I've heard, new energy was once considered a rather niche sector, with few companies willing to invest in it." Before I could answer, she quickly added another question, "I also heard that your company specifically invited Mr. Simpson to consult on this project. He rarely makes public appearances. How did you manage to convince him?" She had asked too many questions at once, so I chose to focus only on the last one.
With a smile, I turned to the camera and said, "For that, I actually have to thank my sister, Elsa Brown." Celeste's eyes lit up with curiosity, but I continued before she could interrupt.
"At the time, both she and Mr. Cornell from Cornell Group were also trying to recruit Mr. Simpson. But in order to makestand out, they went so far as to make themselves look rude and unprofessional, giving Mr on a terrible impression of them." I shrugged lightly. "Because of that, he decided to hearout instead." Celeste's instincts kicked in immediately. She leaned forward, her eyes flashing with excitement. "Mr. Cornell? You mean your ex-husband, Jeremiah Cornell?" I nodded. "Yes, that's right." Celeste was shocked. "So, you're saying your ex-husband and your sister were both working together to recruit Mr. Simpson?" I simply nodded again.
For a moment, Celeste's face lit up with a realization as if she had just unearthed smajor gossip.

Taking advantage of the moment, she pushed further. "There have been rumors that your divorce from Mr. Cornell was due to a third party. Is that true? Was the third party... your sister?" I actually admired her directness, but I didn't give her a straightforward answer.
"Mr. Cornell and I divorced due to irreconcilable differences. After our divorce, he and Elsa are free to do'as they please. As for what happened between them before our divorce... That's all in the past. No need to dwell on it."
Even though I never explicitly confirmed that Elsa was the third party, my carefully worded response made it impossible to deny. After all, there had already been past fumors about Elsa and Jeremiah's affair. Now, my statement had essentially verified the rumors of that scandal.
