Chapter 307


    “What do you mean?” Tina’s heart sank a little as a wave of uneasiness filled her insides.


    Rina pulled out the brand new cell phone that Julia had just bought for her. “The hacker who’s helping


    Miss Reed had already posted proof of you framing Miss Reed. I saw it before I came in. There are two


    videos in total, and they sure are interesting. Miss Reed was the one who had actually been assaulted by


    those guys, and you admitted it on your own in the videos.”

    “What?” Tina’s expression changed as she felt her limbs turning cold. “Give me the phone!” She reached


    out to grab Rina’s cell phone, but Rina didn’t stop her at all. Instead, she spread her lips into a faint smile


    while she watched Tina.


    Tina grabbed the phone firmly in her palms as she began to watch the videos that Rina had been talking


    about. Her mind went nk after she saw the contents of the two videos, and she felt like she had just


    been struck by lightning. She was utterly dazed, and she couldn’t process the situation at all.


    “H-How did this happen?” Tina let go of the cell phone, and it fell onto the sheets with a thud. She didn’t


    seem to realize that the phone had fallen, for there was only a single thought going on in her mind as she


    stared at the ground, her face pale and her eyes zed over. I’ve beenpletely exposed! I’m ruined!


    Meanwhile, Rina let out a celebratory chuckle when she saw the look on Tina’s face. “I told you that you


    don’t stand a chance! The whole world now knows that it wasn’t Miss Reed who had schemed against


    you by arranging for those six men to assault you. Instead, it was you who had done it to Miss Reed. On


    top of that, you even attempted to frame Miss Reed today. These two crimes will probably put you in jail


    for a few years.” Rina seemed to recall something else as she spoke, and she used her pinky to dig her


    ear as she continued to speak. “By the way, many of theizens are calling for the police to capture


    you, and the officials just announced that they’re on the way right now. In other words, you’re about to


    get officially arrested. ording to my estimation, your end should be arriving shortly.”


    The moment Rina finished her sentence, someone shoved the hospital door open. The first two people


    to enter were Titus and Julia. Titus wore a grim look on his face, and Julia was sobbing, looking


    extremely sad. Behind them were a few police officers who had handcuffs in their hands, and they were


    striding toward the hospital bed hastily.


    All the arrogance in Rina’s face disappeared at that very moment, and she pointed at the police before


    pointing to Tina. “Mom? Dad? Is this…”


    “Come here, Rina.” Julia waved at the other girl. Rina threw a nce at Tina before she hurried over to


    Julia. The only people left by the side of the bed were a few male police officers, whose main intentions


    were to interrogate Tina. The men had handcuffs in their hands as they red at Tina with nk


    expressions. “Pleasee with us, Miss Gray.”


    Tina seemed to snap out of her daze when she saw all the officers and the shiny, silver handcuffs


    dangling before her eyes. “No! I refuse to go! I’m not going there!” she cried as she shook her head


    furiously.


    “You don’t have a say in that,” one of the male officers uttered as he secured one side of the handcuff


    around Tina’s wrist. Tina felt the icy metal against her skin, and she trembled in response to the sharp


    coldness of the metal. The fear building up in her chest made it hard for her even to breathe. She


    attempted to wrestle her way out of the police’s grip while she stared at Titus and Julia. “Mom! Dad! Save


    me!”


    Titus looked away without even acknowledging her plea for help. Did she ask me to save her? There is


    evidence all over the ce now. How am I supposed to save her? I’ll be used of disrupting thew if I


    were to do anything now; they’d arrest me as well. The work at Triforce Enterprise is already draining me


    at this point, and things will only be worse if I get brought in by the police. I still have to consider ways to


    stabilize thepany’s shares after the police arrest her.


    A chilly sensation spread across Tina’s chest when she saw Titus’s attitude toward the situation, so she


    hastily turned toward Julia, who was reluctant to even exchange nces with her. Julia looked away


    almost immediately as she thought, If Titus can’t manage to save Tina, what can I, a full-time housewife,


    do at all?


    Tina felt her heart turning to stone when she realized that both Titus and Julia were unwilling to help her


    out. She felt a strong surge of resentment toward the husband and wife. Despite them iming that Tina


    was their only daughter that they would love and cherish forever, they no longer seemed to stick to their


    words after Rina’s return. It’s almost as if they havepletely forgotten about their promises. They’re


    even trying to give up on me now. How could they?


    Meanwhile, Rina, who had been in Julia’s arms, tugged her lips into a smirk when she saw the hatred


    spreading across Tina’s face. Yes! Hate them! Hate them all! The more Tina hates Mom and Dad, the


    more distant they get, and the more likely they’ll cut ties with each other. That way, Mom and Dad will


    completely belong to me.


    …


    Tina was brought away in her wheelchair as her injuries hadn’t healed yet. A bunch of reporters had


    been waiting outside the hospital, and they happened to capture scenes of Tina being brought away by


    the police. Manyizens celebrated after they saw such images surfacing online.


    Before the two videos were released, many people were on Tina’s side—they thought that she was pitiful


    and that Sonia was evil. However, everyone finally understood the situation after the videos were out. It


    wasn’t Sonia who had plotted against Tina, but Tina was the one who had attempted to plot against


    Sonia and failed with her n. In the end, the six men had mistaken Tina for Sonia and therefore made a


    move on her. All in all, Tina’s n to harm Sonia backfired on herself, and she even tried to turn things


    around again. Tina simply refused to give up.


    The more theizens had pitied Tina in the past, the more they hated and detested her after the truth


    was out. They didn’t exactly hate Tina’s harmful and evil acts toward Sonia; they were more resentful


    toward the fact that Tina had used them as a means of causing harm to others. The whole Inte was


    filled with people cursing at Tina.


    Most of theizens weren’t worried about being canceled or embarrassed as Tina didn’t have the


    support of a hacker. Thus, they were harsher and more relentless with their criticisms. Many of the


    comments were much worse than those for Sonia.


    On top of that, Triforce Enterprise also saw huge fluctuations in their shares after this incident, and Titus


    had to rush to the office in the middle of the night to host a shareholders’ meeting.


    In the meantime, Sonia was back in Bayside Residence as she scrolled through all the never-ending


    apologies on her social media. A grin found its way to her face when she contrasted this with all the


    angryments that were on her wall. Soon enough, she gave Tim a call. “Tina has already been taken


    in by the police, and I’m sure she’ll expose you to them soon. You—”


    “I know what you’re going to tell me. Don’t worry. I’ll be fine,” Tim replied as he pushed his sses up.


    Sonia nodded after she heard what he said. “Okay. Well, I have to thank you for recording those two


    videos. I wouldn’t have been able to clear my name otherwise.”


    “It’s no big deal,” Tim replied with a smile. After exchanging a few more words, they got off the call.


    However, Sonia’s phone began to ring the moment she ended Tim’s call.


    She nced at the screen to see Carl’s number, and she immediately ended his call before phoning him


    with her other number. “Sonia?” Carl uttered uncertainly when he first picked up the call.


    “It’s me,” she said with a nod.


    “Sonia, why did you—”


    “For safety purposes. I’m sure Charles told you about this,” she replied.


    He was silent for a few moments before he answered. “Yeah.”


    “You’re so impressive! You secretly honed your skills, huh? I would have never known that you were the


    little fox if you hadn’t said it yourself.” Sonia pinched the space between her brows as she spoke.


    Carl let out a warm chuckle. “I’m sorry, Sonia. I kept it a secret because I didn’t want to scare you. You


    aren’t mad at me, are you?”


    “Of course not! Why would I be mad at you when you helped me? But I need you to be honest with me,


    Carl. Will the police be able to track you down?” Sonia knitted her brows as her tone turned stern.


    His expression became serious as well. “No way. My skills are among the top three in the whole world.


    The police will never be able to catch me.”


    She heaved a sigh of relief after hearing what he said. “That’s good. I feel less worried then. By the way,


    why are you calling me at this hour?”
