---- Chapter 10 After so much pain and hurt, Greyson wanted to erase it all with just one sentence? How ridiculous! Theld up my phone in front of him. "Elise is cyberbullying me. I want you and her to be like me back then. I want you two to lose everything, including your reputation, future, child, and health!" "Okay!" His voice was very hoarse, as if it had been scrubbed by thick sandpaper. He gave me a meaningful look and then turned around to leave. More than ten minutes later, Greyson posted a letter anda clarification video.
He had inherited the Tromp family's company and could obtain the hospital's surveillance footage with just one order. After posting the surveillance video, he also recorded a video explaining things. "| broke up with Nicola because of Elise's scheme. She admitted it herself in the hospital! My former classmates and I were all deceived by her. The incident with the thugs and the photos were all instigated by her! "She ruined my relationship with Nicola and made us miss many years together. She even forced Nicola to almost commit suicide. She also ruined my life.
"Nicola and I would've gotten married and graduated together if not for her. We were childhood sweethearts, and we should've been together forever! Elise, I'll report this to the police! What happened back then won't just end like this!" Before Greyson left my hotel room, he left a letter behind. ---- Ipicked up the letter on the table. It was an apology letter. I had no idea when he wrote it. After Elise's incident, Greyson had always been hostile toward me. Instead of opening the letter, I directly set it on fire in the bathroom. 'The firelight gave my face a golden glow.
I smiled at myself in the mirror and said, "To the 18-year-old Nicola, have you received the apology letter? Don't forgive them. Don't forgive anyone who ever hurt you!" The letter quickly finished burning, and all that was left in the trash can was a pile of ash. Online opinion immediately reversed after Greyson's involvement. Netizens lamented Elise's viciousness [Gosh, so vicious at only 18!] (Damn, I can't imagine how Nicola got through that!] (she ruined a young woman! Thankfully, Nicola's doing well now!) I stopped looking at these comments and began to enjoy my vacation.
The next morning, I received a call from an unknown number. As soon as I answered, Elise's angry voice rang out. "Nicola! Have you lost your mind? Must you ruin the Tromp family and me? The 'Tromp family has been kind to you. You're such an ingrate!" Elise had initially created the persona of a pampered wife of the president of Tromp Group. The two frequently displayed their ---- affection in front of the media. The once-loving couple was now in abitter feud online, causing Tromp Group's stock price to plummet. The entire Tromp Group was teetering on the brink of collapse.
