At that moment, upon hearing what Lisa just said, Oliver instantly turned toward her with his eyes full of disbelief. The words had hit him so unexpectedly that for a brief second he thought he must have misheard her.
"What did you just say?" Oliver asked, his voice with confusion. "Cora? Getting herself involved in a love scandal? Like how? How is that even possible?"
Then Lisa took a deep breath, clearly uncomfortable delivering the news, but she knew Oliver needed to know everything clearly. Her eyes showed hesitation, but she forced herself to continue.
"Well, it all broke out last night," Lisa explained carefully. "And from all indications, it seems that Samuel is the one at the center of the love scandal. They're saying Cora and Samuel have actually been seeing each other secretly, and some pictures surfaced online, pictures that people are using as proof."
