---- Chapter 10 Over the next two days, public opinion online intensified. Someone claiming to be Matthew's colleague revealed that Matthew was an honest and good teacher, but he was now being boycotted in the school because he married Rosalie and offended me. For a moment, I became the target of condemnation across the entire internet. I shut myself in the studio, not daring to go out or look at my phone. It was not until the morning of the third day that things took a shocking turn.
A well-known legal blogger published a long article, which clearly and systematically listed all the doubts and legal risks in these posts. Immediately after, the legal department of Blaze's company published a strongly worded lawyer's letter, naming Rosalie and Matthew, as well as several social media accounts that spread the most rumors, and demanded they immediately delete the false information, make a public apology, and pay a huge amount of compensation for mental distress. The most fatal blow was a leaked audio recording, which was a conversation between Rosalie and a stranger.
---- The man said, "The photos and captions have been published as per your instructions, and the results are good. When will the final payment be settled?" Rosalie said, "When that bitch Jamie is ruined, I'll pay you not a penny less! I'm going to make sure she can never hold her head high for the rest of her life!" The recording ended with Matthew's voice. "Rosie, isn't this too much?" Rosalie sneered, "Too much? She humiliated you, and this is too much? Matthew, I'm telling you, it's either her or me!" This recording exploded online like a bombshell. Public opinion instantly reversed.
Those who had been harsh on me now felt immense sympathy for me. Rosalie and Matthew became street rats who were condemned everywhere. (Gosh, Rosalie is so vicious! She's the mistress, yet she's slandering others instead?] (Matthew isn't any better. He knew his wife was doing something wrong, yet he still tolerated it!] [A rural-born social climber and a fake innocent bitch make the perfect pair! I feel sorry for Ms.
Linsworth for ---- getting entangled with these two scumbags.] The school where Matthew worked quickly issued a statement saying it would conduct a strict investigation into Matthew's ethical conduct. Rosalie was summoned by the police on suspicion of defamation and cyberbullying. I stared at the constant stream of messages on my phone, feeling a mix of emotions. Blaze pushed open the studio door and walked in, his voice tinged with weariness. "It's all taken care of." I knew he had not rested much these past two days to help me handle all this. "Blaze, thank you." I looked up at him.

HelpGold & Premium FAQHow unlocking works on this reader page.
What does Gold unlock?
Unlock full novel spends Gold once to open every chapter of this book permanently on your account (the unlock does not expire for that title).
Unlock one chapter spends Gold for this chapter only (about 3,000 Gold here).
Top up on Buy Gold, then use the unlock buttons on this page.
What is Premium?
Premium is a site-wide subscription while your plan is active.
It helps you read locked content across many titles without unlocking each novel with Gold.
On the web reader, the first 5 chapters are free to preview; later chapters may need Premium, a novel Gold unlock, or a single-chapter unlock.
Gold vs Premium — which should I choose?
Choose Gold if you only want this series: one payment (about 500 Gold for the full novel on this book) unlocks the whole story forever.
Choose Premium if you read many locked books and want one subscription for the whole site during your billing period.
You can use both.
Cancel Premium auto-renewal?
On the Premium page after subscribing, or on your
account profile — use Cancel auto-renewal. Premium stays active until the end date shown; only future renewals stop.
