Chapter 122
+25 BONUS
The childhood sweetheart, who once was treated as the dear younger sister, suddenly became a gold–digging stepmother and a mistress. Then, she went from being a shameless mistress to playing the victim, claiming, she wasn’t a gold digger but was a victim of sexual assault.
And I, who was once the wronged wife, became the perpetrator and was arrested.
The media had to keep changing the direction of the narrative. This turned the issue between Irvin, Julianne, and I into a full–blown scandal.
Especially the fact that I was arrested.
It was safe to say that the entire country knew about it, and everyone was eager to see a wicked woman like me sentenced.
After all, I didn’t just steal Julianne’s childhood sweetheart, but I also drugged her and made her sleep with Irvin’s father.
I forced a loving couple into the role of a stepmother and stepson, creating an unbridgeable gap between the two so that they could never be together again.
I was such a wicked woman! So wicked that it was nearly impossible to find another like me.
People weren’t just raging online, but they were also furious in reality.
Not only were there people gathered outside the detention center, demanding the police treat me harshly, but many reporters and influencers were also there to broadcast the situation live.
Yesterday, I had avoided the crowd and left from the back door of the detention center. But I was still caught on
camera.
That very night, news of my release had spread across the internet. The entire country found out and was furious.
They said that I was released because of my power and status, despite committing such a crime. And that the officials didn’t take any action.
The news caused a discussion with serious and negative influence online.
In this age of information–where any incident could quickly be known by the entire nation–the police quickly responded, just as the online discussions began.
The police released an official statement. They publicly released all the found evidence related to the case online.
Before netizens could cyberbully me, the police used clear facts and evidence to prove my innocence.
Justice was served.
After the release of the official statement, a notice of arrest was also released, stating that Dad and Julianne had falsely accused me and illegally tested drugs on me.
There was an instant uproar online. They never imagined the situation would take such a drastic turn!
It was absolutely insane!
This drama they were following had more plot twists than a crime thriller!
I made a public response when the online discussions were at their peak.
Julianne had deceived and humiliated me. She plotted to frame me and even wanted to hire someone to kill me.

Chapter 122
How could I let her off the hook this easily?
Of course, I had to make things worse for her as she suffered!
+25 BONUS
I would make sure she ended up in the gutter and was despised by everyone, even if I couldn’t destroy her completely!
And I needed to seek justice for how they had wronged me!
First, I exposed the fake medical report that claimed I had bipolar disorder to further support the evidence listed by the police.
This was to prove that I was never jealous of Julianne nor had I ever wished to harm her.
Those incidents where I supposedly hurt her were all fabricated by Dad when I was out of my mind after he drugged me.
Next, I released the evidence of how Irvin had relentlessly tried to ask me out for an entire year. It showed that I had never interfered in their relationship and that I never used my wealth to force Irvin to be with me
It was Irvin who had pursued me and given me all his affections for an entire year. That was the only reason I agreed to be with him.
Iwas never the third party in their love story. It was them, who did everything that only lovers would do, while they claimed to only treat each other like siblings.
Irvin had spoiled and loved Julianne in such an open and exaggerated manner that it was extremely easy to find evidence of their relationship.
I couldn’t even fit all their loving moments within three full PowerPoint slides.
That was my public response.
The facts and evidence I posted online were frantically spread by the public. This matter was already a hot topic, but it grew even bigger after the endless plot twists.
Everyone was now aware of the truth that Irvin had pursued me, and I was never the homewrecker.
It was also known that, in order to support Irvin in starting a business back then, I had sold the company my aunt left me and also given up my studies to fully support him.
