Chapter 784

If Sophia could stoop so low with money, what lines wouldn't she cross when desperate?

Shai's damning chat logs and bank transactions were all attached. He'd even invited investigators to verify everything, swearing on his reputation that he hadn't lied or concealed anything.

The influencer repeatedly expressed remorse toward Evelyn, apologizing profusely while thanking her for not pressing charges.

Yet conscience compelled him to expose the truth publicly.

Shai admitted his shame for profiting from unethical smear campaigns that betrayed his principles.

In a final act of contrition, he announced the permanent deletion of his Twitter account.

His closing words cut deepest: "Ms. Blackwood should do more good deeds - karma's watching."

There could only be one Ms. Blackwood from that family.

Sophia had already gained notoriety for gambling away the "Daydream" necklace. High society knew her as spoiled rotten.

Now her dirty laundry aired again.

During Evelyn's marriage to Nathan, Sophia constantly belittled her sister-in-law while making her life miserable. Textbook rich bitch behavior.

Utterly insufferable.

What enraged netizens more was Sophia wielding family influence to slander innocents without consequence.

Her cruelty toward both Preston and Evelyn left zero defenders in the comments.

[Think money makes you untouchable, Sophia? Evelyn's richer than you'll ever be!]

[Any man marrying this gold-digger deserves the bankruptcy coming his way!]

[Thank God Evelyn's wealthy enough to fight back! Regular folks would be destroyed!]

[Turns out Sophia sabotaged Nathan's reconciliation! The Blackwoods are vipers!]

The internet exploded.

Though not a celebrity, Sophia's status as Blackwood heiress drew vicious envy.

And she'd proven utterly unworthy of it.

Lucas found Evelyn arranging flowers in the sunroom, phone in hand. "This your handiwork?"

Evelyn didn't need to look up to know social media was ablaze. Her lips curved. "Effective?"

"Pulling the rug from under Sophia Blackwood?" Lucas grinned. "Masterstroke."

Evelyn met his gaze, eyes glittering. "Do tell."

Sophia was merely the pawn. The real target stood behind her - the Blackwood empire enabling her malice.

Without their backing, would Sophia dare act so brazenly?

While peers worked honest jobs, she'd weaponized wealth to destroy lives without remorse.

Seeing Evelyn's anticipation, Lucas obliged. After all, he'd cheered this revenge.

Only Evelyn could turn Sophia's own tactics against her. Poetic justice at its finest.

"Media's already mobilized. Grant got their VP and senior exec blackout drunk. Even if Nathan moves fast, he can't reach them. That hashtag isn't coming down." Lucas smirked. "Blackwood Industries stock? Plummeting. Nine billion per minute. How the mighty have fallen."

Corporate reputation meant everything.

Evelyn finally exhaled, satisfaction warming her smile. "Bullies only understand one language. Since they came for me, I'll bankrupt them."

Nathan Blackwood. Reginald Blackwood. Even that waste of oxygen Sophia.

None would escape unscathed.
