Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 1246

However, since the hype was mostly positive, nobody thought much about it… Well, nobody but Xavia, of course. After all, she had no idea when those photos were even taken, and she was pretty sure that this wasn’t that simple a case!

In the end, she was prompted to say, “…Could you try to keep this topic down for me, Bianca? Also, try to see if there’s anyone pulling the strings behind the scenes…”

“…I’ll try. However, with how popular you are now, I feel it’s going to be highly difficult to keep things under control… That aside… Is Mark really your first love, Xavia…?” muttered Bianca on the other side of the call.

Though her expression darkened a bit when she heard that question, she eventually replied, “…It’s true. That aside, I’m feeling suspicious since I never really had proper relationships with my classmates… Hell, I don’t know half of them so they can’t sincerely be giving me blessings! It’s the reason why I believe someone’s orchestrating all this…”

“While you may think putting me in the spotlight with Mark is something that would benefit me, I feel that the perpetrator is simply hoping to make me crash harder by first making me famous! With that said, we need to come up with a countermeasure as soon as possible.”

After hearing all that, Bianca was prompted to reply, “…Actually… Could it be that the culprit isn’t trying to destroy your career, but your feelings instead…?”

“…Come again?” said the confused Xavia.

“Well… The mastermind has been doing their best to push you closer to Mark, to the point where they even bribed your classmates to comment on how close you two were! With that said, I think the mastermind is someone who would benefit greatly if you had a relationship with Mark instead…”

Gulping in fear, Nathan was about to give more reasons why he failed but… in the end, he refrained. After all, he knew that that would only make things worse. With that, he lowered his gaze as he replied, “…I’m sorry, Young Master Burton. I await your punishment…”

“Good. That aside… you said you had something to report earlier?” grumbled the hulking man as he got to his feet.

Upon hearing that, Nathan couldn’t help but freeze for a moment. Where there was some other news, Nathan had a feeling that bringing it up now would surely result in his death! With that in mind, he was prompted to lie, “…I… just wanted to say that the mastermind is pretty capable, so we have to pay extra attention if we want to crack the case…”

Following that, Nathan hurriedly fled the scene… unfortunately forgetting to grab the tablet that he had earlier placed on the desk…!
