Jocelyn’s post was spreading like wildfire online right now. However, all the reporters present at the venue were all focused on the press conference. None of them had looked at their phones, so they were completely clueless about it.

After hearing what Jocelyn said, they took out their phones to look up the post.

What a shocking turnaround!

Who had plagiarized whom?

Howard had betrayed their relationship and taken advantage of Jocelyn time and time again whereas Lily White had plagiarized her repeatedly. She could not stand it anymore!

There was a link beneath the post. After clicking on the link, all the original design drafts of the award-winning works that Lily White had submitted in numerous competitions could be found.

What a shocking piece of news. Everyone was completely stunned!

The bountiful evidence left Howard and Lily without any way to object to the accusations. They were instantly labeled as a scumbag, a b*tch, a copycat, and other derogatory terms. They would never be able to get rid of such labels.

The comments online were even more interesting.

I dare say that this is the post with the most complete evidence that I have ever seen. What a huge slap to their faces!

This scumbag and b*tch deserves to die. I pity Jocelyn so much. She has been fooled by Howard for two years. She has even been gifting the design drafts that she has put so much effort in to someone else! She has been paving the way for their marriage instead!

I pity her too. I feel like tearing Howard and Lily into pieces. How can there be such disgusting people? They have already gotten their marriage certificates, yet he still tricked Jocelyn and told her that he was just sending a friend over. How revolting!

Jocelyn is really pitiful. She has been scammed for her talent and love! What a waste!

Did you guys see that video of them in the restaurant? I really cannot take it anymore. Everything seems peaceful on the outside, but the atmosphere beneath the table seems to be worlds apart!

Yes, I really pity Jocelyn. I guess she did not expect both of them to be having such a wild time under the dining table!

...

The post was full of facts and evidence. The public opinion online instantly turned around. Everyone started supporting Jocelyn and throwing hate at Howard and Jocelyn for being terrible scumbags!

The person who finished looking through the post first could not help but say, “The person who said that he’ll eat ten kilograms of sh*t can fulfill his promise now!”

Everyone burst out into laughter at once.

Howard turned around in rage. He looked at Jocelyn in disbelief.

He was about to go mad with rage. He was forced to keep his remaining strand of logic due to the groups of reporters present in the venue.

He gritted his teeth as he glared at Jocelyn. “Did you do it on purpose?”
