Chapter 193 - 194 Team Outing
I’d been glued to my laptop so long my lower back had started protesting.
I finally dragged myself downstairs for water, stretched my neck, and nearly bumped into Daniel as he rushed in.
‘You didn’t share the photos I sent you, did you?’ he asked quickly.
‘No. Why?’
He let out a relieved breath, then leaned in like he had a secret to share. ‘Rowan’s people reached out to her fanbase. Told them not to repost anything. She says the guy in the photo’s just a friend. Dinner and nothing more. Blaming the angle.’
I set my glass on the counter. ‘Maybe she wasn’t lying, then.’
He didn’t catch that. Just kept talking. ‘Apparently, she gave the heads-up yesterday, but I only found out this morning. Good thing you kept it to yourself.’
‘I didn’t leak anything,’ I said. ‘Relax.’
Daniel nodded, then sighed like he was personally invested. ‘I really thought she’d landed someone serious. Judging by that guy’s clothes, he looked like the kind of man with stupid money. Could’ve helped her career. Shame it’s just a friend.’
He rambled on, trying to piece it all together out loud.
Whatever.
His recap matched what she told Ashton, which meant she was actively trying to kill the story.
