---- Cyrus followed behind, unconcerned. To him, the trending topic was perfect publicity. If people thought it was true, even better. He scrolled through the comments as they walked, a smile tugging at his lips. Comment A: "A perfect match! The most promising couple in the industry-finally official?" Comment B: "Wow! The best New Year's gift! My goddess is finally happy!" Comment C: "So sweet! Showing love even on New Year's! Congrats to the two of them!" Comment D: "I feel heartbroken... my idol Cyrus is in love with someone else! But Scarlett is stunning... I give up.
Dozens of pages of reactions rolled by. Some were supportive, some skeptical, but Cyrus ignored the naysayers entirely, basking in the attention. Miranda watched the two of them stroll casually, unfazed, and was speechless. Well, she couldn't afford to offend either. "Let's wait and see tomorrow," she thought. "Or just pretend it's buzz for next year's new show." Derek had waited half an hour for a reply that never ---- came. Frustrated, he tried calling-but the phone was off. Moments later, he stumbled across the trending topic online. His blood boiled.

All he wanted was to storm over to Cyrus and punch him. He checked Scarlett's previous schedule: she would be back at Greystone tomorrow. Derek immediately booked a flight, panicking. The next day, around four o'clock, Clara and her family arrived at Sebastian's for their New Year gathering. Sebastian and Lucian were still immersed in a chess match. Aaron and Leo were hunched over their Lego set. Clara checked the kitchen to see if she could lend a hand. Suddenly, voices rose at the front door. "Please wait a moment! I need to notify Mr. Storm first!" the driver called.
Then a sharp, high-pitched voice: "What?! Just let me in! The driver hesitated, unwilling to let Judy in. The recent explosive argument was still fresh in everyone's memory; Sebastian had nearly fallen ill from the stress. ---- Judy stormed toward the foyer. The driver quickly reached out to stop her. "There are guests inside. You can't just barge in. Let me check and get back to you." Judy bristled, ready to explode-until Sebastian appeared, calm but firm. The driver relaxed instantly. Sebastian's face remained unreadable. "Mom...
what are you doing here?" "You didn't come home for dinner on New Year's Eve. I came to check on you," Judy replied. She had waited all day, thinking even Sebastian's temper wouldn't stop him from celebrating with family. By ten at night, she realized Sebastian truly didn't care. Unlike previous years, no gifts, no calls. This time, his words weren't just a whim. She had hoped he'd be celebrating quietly at home-but through the floor-to-ceiling windows, she saw laughter and movement. Everyone inside looked lively and cheerful. Her heart sank. Sebastian seemed perfectly happy without her.
Judy's anger flared. She just wanted to see what was happening inside. "I won't have any contact with you in the future. Everything that needed to be said was said last time," Sebastian said quietly, not wanting to disturb the ---- guests. Judy pleaded, "We're family. There can't be grudges overnight. If I was wrong, I apologize! Don't make a fool of yourself over something small." "Small?" Sebastian scoffed. "My wife and child are gone. That's small? Unless you can bring them back, I can't forgive this." Judy was speechless. Clara approached. "Mr.
Storm, should we use the round table tonight..2" She noticed Judy and said, "Oh, a guest? You two talk first," then returned to the kitchen. Judy froze, seeing a familiar face resembling Sue. Her heart dropped. Sebastian was celebrating New Year with her. No wonder he hadn't come home.
