Chapter 556:
“Got it,” Jenessa replied.
Before long, they reached the venue of the international exhibition.
Inside, the exhibition showcased an array of works from renowned designers from all over the world.
Sloane’s collection, including many of her previous works, was prominently featured.
The area where Sloane’s pieces were displayed had already attracted a crowd of media reporters.
As soon as Jenessa arrived, the reporters sprang into action, rushing towards her with eager anticipation.
Caught off guard by the unexpectedly large crowd, Jenessa stood momentarily stunned.
Fortunately, the reporters managed to stay professional, forming a respectful cluster in front of her without pushing or crowding.
“Ms. Todd, can you share your thoughts on this international design exhibition p>
“Nearly all of your works are showcased here. Is there one piece that you hold particularly dear p>
The reporters had been asking questions about design, and Jenessa responded to each one with clarity and poise.
But then, out of nowhere, a reporter from the back of the room suddenly asked, “Ms. Todd, there is a rumor that you’ve been secretly married to Ryan Haynes, the CEO of WorldLink Group, for three years. Is that true p>
The room instantly erupted into a chaotic buzz when they heard this.
Jenessa’s expression changed to one of surprise and displeasure. She hadn’t anticipated that such a question would come up during this event.
Weren’t these reporters here to cover the design exhibition?
Jenessa’s face darkened, but she managed to maintain her composure and replied politely, “I’m sorry, but that’s a private matter. Please refrain from asking questions that aren’t related to the exhibition p>

But the pesky reporter was relentless.
“Sloane, everyone says you and Ryan have kept your marriage a secret from the public. Does that mean you two have feelings for each other p>
Jenessa opened her mouth to respond, but the reporter pressed on.
“Recently, news that Ryan was rushed to the hospital surfaced. Yet you don’t seem to care; you even left the country to attend an exhibition abroad. Does this mean the rumors about your relationship are false p>
Jenessa froze.
She had planned to just turn around and walk out, but the reporter’s words stopped her in her tracks.
Jenessa turned sharply to the reporter, her eyes wide with shock.
“What did you just say? Ryan’s at the hospital? Since when p>
The reporter, sensing a breakthrough, grew excited.
“You didn’t know he’s in the hospital? It seems you really have no feelings for each other. So, why did you pretend to be in love p>
The other reporters, hearing this, pricked up their ears and held out their microphones, eager for more details.
Just then, Richard strode over, his expression stern.
“Where are the security guards? Where is the staff? Get these gossipy leeches out of here now p>
As soon as the reporters saw Richard, they recognized him and shouted, “Richard’s here too? What are you doing together? Sloane, you not only didn’t know your husband’s condition, but also gallivanted abroad with Richard. Are you cheating on Ryan p>
Jenessa was utterly stunned, her thoughts consumed by the revelation that Ryan was in trouble.
How could Ryan have been hospitalized? And from the way the reporter mentioned it, his condition sounded dire. But how did this happen? He was fine the last time she saw him.
Richard, unable to bear the harsh accusations hurled…
