Chapter 517
Sophia couldnโt get in touch with Trevor. He claimed he was busy with work commitments, but she had already checked. He had just finished shooting a charity documentary, picked up an endorsement deal, and his next movie wouldnโt start filming for a while.
He didnโt have any real work at all.
Clutching her phone tightly, Sophia saw the call log. Every single outgoing call was to the same number, and without exception, either the call was rejected immediately or it got cut off after just a few seconds.
Rapid breathing escaped from her nose. Panic and fear overwhelmed her. She thought Trevor was seeing someone else.
If it were just a fling, he wouldnโt even bother hiding it. That meant this woman must be someone heโs truly smitten with.
It felt like a chain was tightening around her neck, suffocating her every second.
Sophia hadnโt even gotten anything substantial from the Wilson family yet. She couldnโt just sit around and wait!
Just as Sophia was on the verge of a breakdown, an email arrived in her inbox. She opened it, and her pupils contracted. It was from Trevorโs attorney.
He wanted a divorce. They hadnโt even been married for a year, and he already wanted out.
The angrier she got, the clearer her mind became. She had never felt this calm before.
Trevor was clearly in a rush to dump her, to make space for that slut outside. There had to be someone else.
Right now, Sophia had nothing. The divorce agreement looked clean and fair on paper. At most, sheโd walk away with a bit of money. But it couldnโt make up for her being unable to have children for life. It couldnโt compensate for the way she had destroyed her own career.
Staring coldly at her phone screen, Sophia sneered. โSince youโve decided to be ruthless, donโt blame me for tearing your facade apart.โ
Meanwhile, in a luxurious house where Trevor was secretly keeping his lover, while Trevor was in the shower, Kate quickly checked his phone, pulled out her own, snapped a photo of a document, and sent it off.
Kate: [Trevor plans to divorce. This is the agreement he sent to Sophia.]
The reply came almost instantly: [Sophia wonโt let this go quietly. Iโm planning to expose you. Get ready.]
Kate: [As long as Trevor suffers, I donโt care.]
Kateโs expression had none of her usual softness. Her face was as cold as falling ice, chilling to the bone.
News of Trevor keeping a mistress broke out fast. Sophia didnโt even have time to gather evidence of his infidelity. The internet delivered it to her.
It started with a photo of him and a woman entering and leaving a hotel late at night.
Soon, someone tried to clarify that the photo was from the time he was filming a short drama, and the woman was just the female lead. It wasnโt a big deal.
But the blogger who posted the photo ignored the rebuttals and immediately followed up with another image. It was Trevor and the same woman having a meal together. Their body language was clearly intimate, far from just being friends.
The blogger wasnโt done. After letting the public chew on the first two photos for a couple of hours, they dropped the real bomb. It was a series of pictures from when Trevor went to do charity work. Kate was with him the whole time. The photos showed multiple moments of physical closeness.
This time, the post came with a sarcastic caption: [Keep trying to spin it, I dare you.]
At this point, even his fans couldnโt say the pictures were fake, not even if they tossed their consciences away.
The comment section exploded.
The haters who were always getting shut down by Trevor Wilsonโs fans finally got their chance to gloat.
[Wow, what a responsible man. At least he only dated another woman after marrying Sophia.]
[Once a cheater, always a cheater. When the whole Zoe thing came out, it was obvious Trevorโs just a player, but his fans are so blind they thought he was some saintly, faithful heartthrob.]
[First Milena, then Sophia. Each womanโs ending is worse than the last. He wants serious partners when heโs in trouble, and flings when heโs not.]
[Trevor Wilsonโs got no morals. Kick him out of showbiz!]
The hashtag โTrevor Wilsonโs cheatingโ shot to the top of trending searches, and no amount of deleting could stop it.
Just as fans were rendered speechless, Trevorโs PR team got to work.
Skyler had already prepared backup plans when Trevor decided to bring Kate along for the charity event. Although the crew was full of their own people, rumors spread fastest when crowds gathered.
The studio quickly issued a statement, saying Kate was a newly signed actress. Privately, their communication was purely professional because she would soon be playing a supporting role in Trevorโs new film.
Kate was a promising newcomer, and Trevor, as both boss and mentor, was naturally giving her extra guidance.
This statement effectively denied any deep personal relationship between them.
Then, Skyler posted a followโup to explain the charity event photos.
โYes, we did bring Kate along because sheโs new and needed a chance to earn some positive public perception. But whether it was genuine or for show, the charity effort itself was real. Kate comes from a modest background and even donated half of her pay from the last short drama to support the event.โ
They also released several video clips. When placed alongside the photos that had looked intimate, the context made those gestures seem like harmless, accidental touches during normal conversation.
The fans were instantly revived and pushed back hard.
[Everyone knows Trevorโs studio never had a strong female lead to match Trevor. Kateโs leaks and short drama clips looked great. Sheโs talented and beautiful. Promoting her makes perfect sense. People calling this a scandal are just ridiculous.]
[Letโs be real, gaining goodwill through charity is an open secret. But when I saw Kateโs bank statement, I felt bad for her. Does she have to be this honest?]
[Taking things out of context? Screw you!]
This PR wave not only turned the tide in Trevorโs favor, it gave Kate a popularity boost too.
The scandal became nothing more than a ripple in the sea. It was barely a splash.
Some people online still tried to criticize Trevor, but his fans quickly drowned them out.
[Youโre all screaming about cheating, but Sophia herself hasnโt even said a word. Why are you jumping the gun?]
As for Sophia, it wasnโt that she didnโt want to speak. It was that she couldnโt.
When Trevor sent her the divorce agreement, he also had someone keep her under surveillance. She wasnโt allowed to leave the house, and all her electronic devices were locked down. All she could do was read the news or watch videos. She had no way to send messages.
He had sent a trusted aide to her. The condition was simple. She had to sign the divorce agreement and write a statement admitting she was the reason for the breakup. Only then could she leave.
Clearly, Sophia wasnโt going to surrender that easily.
Staring at the news about Kate and Trevor, her teeth ground together in rage. โThat bitch!โ
