Chapter 373 Victims and Idiots

+10 Fine Can

Next up was a young boy holding a photo of a cat. “Ms. Wallace, you tortured my cat to death. My parents found out, and you threatened them so badly that they lost their jobs and had to leave Liberty City. They spent years back home, miserable and crushed. Today, I brought my cat to see how you end up.”

Then, the girl Lydia tormented in high school stepped forward–the one with a long scar across her face. Lydia had also stolen a boy from his girlfriend just to mess with him, and he sank into depression. Now his elderly parents also stood there.

Story after story spilled out, each more shocking than the last.

Her father had hurt her, and she turned that into revenge on lots of innocent people.

Some of the details came from Preston, but Claudia and Sterling dug up a lot more recently.

The people Lydia went after either had grasping, controlling families or were too weak to fight back.

Her crimes were hidden behind cash and a once–good name.

A dozen victims and their families lined up like judges, staring at Lydia as she collapsed on the floor, shaking with fear.

It felt like ghosts were closing in. She screamed, backed away, and lost it.

It was Claudia! She was the one who brought them here!

Her real weapon was never Preston–her real power was all the people Lydia had hurt.

If Clarence’s claims about stolen business secrets could be bought off, the crimes revealed today would put her in prison for life.

She was finished for good.

Someone tore the veil off her. Her bloodied face looked totally unhinged, but nobody in the room felt sorry. Every person stared with fury.

Lydia’s cruelty had crossed the line for everyone.

A few police officers, faces set, took the evidence Clint handed them and looked down at Lydia, who was still on the floor.

Chapter 373 Victims and Idiots

“Ms. Wallace, you need to come with us.”

“No, no, I’m not going to prison!”

Thinking about the bullying and alone time she’d suffered behind bars before, the thought of losing her freedom made her frantic. She pushed the officers away, lunged at Lottie, and dropped to her knees.

“Mom, please! Help me! Make Claudia let me go! I was wrong. I know I messed up. I’ll be a good daughter from now on. I’ll take care of you. Just help me!”

She sobbed and fell apart.

Lottie pulled her hand back, tears welling. “You’re not my daughter!”

The Lancasters might not have known everything Lydia did, but their money and influence fed her cruelty.

Claudia was also one of the victims.

Lottie’s eyes were red with anger. “I should’ve let you and Zoey die back then. Lydia, the thing I regret most is adopting you.”

They shoved Lydia to the floor. In her despair, she started laughing like a madwoman.

“Do you think you’re any better? Lottie, you’re the biggest bitch of all! You stole the man my mom loved, stole her rich life, and then acted like some kind of savior.

“You’re just an idiot! You probably didn’t know this, but I was the one who hurt Claudia’s leg. I wanted her off the stage so she’d never beat me. And Grandma? Everything Claudia said was true. I didn’t help her when she was dying. I wanted that biased old woman gone! And you? You doted on the woman who killed your mom! Haha! You’re so dumb!

“And you too, Wilson. You never trusted your daughter. She tried to kill me and wanted revenge for Grandma, but you called her crazy. You whipped her, locked her in the dark, and even sent her to therapy. Haha! You all are a bunch of idiots!”
