Chapter 101

Mr. Stern handed his phone to me as he spoke, showing me the situation online.Juliane had paid off online trolls and even hired influencers to talk about the situation. The story of a "sister's" sudden turn into a stepmother was already scandalous enough. But with influencers talking about it, it quickly went viral.In the beginning, netizens' hate comments were directed only at Julianne. This was thanks to the effort of her army of trolls. Some called her shameless for treating Irvin as a brother when she was his stepmother. Some labeled her a gold digger who was willing to sleep with anyone for money. There were also comments saying it was bad enough that Julianne had left the son in favor of sleeping with his old man for the sake of money. But now the old man was dead, and the son was successful, she doubled back and wanted to be with the son despite already having been married once.She was criticized for being utterly shameless.There were even netizens who felt someone lik

Chapter 102

Mr. Stern couldn't help but look at me with pity. I could already guess what he was thinking.What a tragedy. I had wasted a fortune supporting a man who turned out to be a scumbag. Even worse, my own family teamed up with the public in wishing for my death.But I wasn't affected by this at all because I had already anticipated it.Julianne had always hated seeing me happy after all. Yet, despite having a video that could ruin me, she hadn't exposed it earlier. Besides using the video to get my parents to hate me, I guessed she also wanted Irvin to think of me as a malicious person. That way, he would feel more remorseful toward her. He would then spoil her unconditionally to make up for it.Most importantly, Julianne didn't want anyone to know that she had once been with Irvin's father. This was so she could still have a chance to be with Irvin. But now everyone already knew about it, and she could no longer play the "childhood sweetheart" card. It also meant it was no longer

Irvin looked more tired than he did this morning. He was still wearing the same suit from the press conference. Yet, instead of looking noble and aloof, he looked worn out and impatient.He tugged on his already fully loosened tie and said, "I believe Mr. Stern has informed you of the current situation outside this place and how serious it is, Emilia.""Yes." My reply was calm and indifferent. He clearly didn't expect me to behave this way at this point."What are you thinking, Emilia?" he blurted. "Do you truly understand the severity of the situation right now? Even if you were to publicly apologize to Lianne now, It's already too late! Do you even understand this!""Yup," I responded with a single word.It made him so furious. He slammed his hand on the table so hard I thought he might break it.I didn't understand why he was angry. "Isn't this what you wanted?" I asked curiously.He was taken aback. "How is this something I wanted?" he quickly retorted."Didn't you tell the

Irvin was an overly proud man. I had also spoiled him too much in the past. Naturally, he was angered when I belittled him.He laughed bitterly. "Yes, your biggest mistake was falling in love with me!" He finally said what he had buried deep in his heart. "You made Lianne suffer when you stole me—her childhood sweetheart—away from her.""You had set up all sorts of chance encounters just so I'd fall for you," Irvin added accusingly. "But I bet you never expected to fall in love with me in the process, right? This is your karma for playing with someone's genuine feelings and treating them like a fool!"I frowned. "Setting up chance encounters? Stealing you from Julianne? Ew! I disinfect my hands when I accidentally touch something of hers. Why would I ever steal her belongings?"My words angered Irvin. His breathing became noticeably heavier."Stop pretending, Emilia," he snapped. "Stop denying it! I know you deliberately made me fall for you back then!" His heart ached when he

Irvin probably thought I would be moved to tears by his affection. But in reality, I was put off by it. I was disgusted by his touch. It felt gross.I yanked my hand back forcefully. "Don't bother. It's unnecessary and it's not going to happen! I don't need your help, Irvin, nor will I ever start over with you! I, Emilia Quill, will never admit to something I didn't do!"I'd rather remain in this detention center than be admitted to a psychiatric hospital for a crime I didn't commit!Irvin thought the arrangements he had made were what was best for me. He had repeatedly made compromises because he loved me. However, upon hearing me reject his kindness yet again, he couldn't contain his anger."Emilia!" he yelled. "Could you stop being so stubborn! Do you really want to end up in prison? With the way things are right now, it's no longer just between you, me, and Lianne! It's pointless for you to keep denying it! You'll only end up destroying yourself if you continue like this!"Tra

Chapter 106

I had studied psychology when I was in university. I had learned about bipolar disorder, so I knew a person with bipolar did have intermittent manic episodes. However, manic episodes weren't only triggered by a specific person.Furthermore, if people only behaved manically toward a specific person, it didn't mean they were bipolar. It could just be that they strongly abhorred that specific person and couldn't stand them in the slightest. Thus far, I had only had manic episodes around Julianne. I also couldn't remember what I'd done after each episode had passed. That would only mean that I wasn't the problem. Rather, the problem was… Julianne!"Being mentally ill is nothing to worry about, Emi," Irvin said. "The same goes for making mistakes. Illnesses can be treated. As for mistakes, we just have to recognize them and correct ourselves. Just cooperate with me, okay?"He never wanted me to go to prison. Now, he knew I had likely forgotten that I had done such a thing due to my m

I was afraid. I was worried that I really had drugged Julianne and would be found guilty. I was also fearful of disappointing Mr. Holland once again.I was so, so afraid.Mr. Holland seemed to have sensed my fear. He gently patted my shoulder, then said, "Don't be afraid, Emilia. I've called in some favors for you! I won't let you be wrongfully accused. You'll be out of here in no time!"His comforting words merely intensified my fears. "But, Mr. Holland, what if… what if I really did do it?""Impossible!" he instantly replied. "I've never met anyone who was a better person than you! There's no way you could have done it, so don't worry!"A lot of time had passed since I had lost my memory. Even so, I had never once been worried. In fact, I was even glad it had happened as I didn't remember that scumbag, Irvin. Yet now, I was panicking because I was unable to recall anything."But, Mr. Holland, it really was me in the video. And I can't recall what I was doing at the time, no mat

These big shots were professors in the law departments of top universities. It could be said everyone in the current legal field had once been their student. No, it wasn't just the legal field. It was likely they had also taught people in other law-related professions. Some of their former students were probably elites in their field.Hence, it likely wasn't an exaggeration to say there wasn't a case they couldn't solve."That's right. There's nothing to worry about." The last big shot reassured me. His name was Jesse Pearson. "Tell us everything. You can trust us. We believe you're innocent."I lowered my head as my tears flowed uncontrollably. No one had ever had such faith in me.I had always been the target of suspicion ever since Julianne entered my life. It didn't matter what happened between us. No one had ever believed me.My family and my beloved husband all treated me the same way. They never asked me or gave me the chance to explain myself. They just assumed I was gui

"Please, Emi." Irvin pleaded. "You're mentally ill. The reason you're certain you're innocent is because you can't remember doing it…""I am not mentally ill!" I argued back. "Just because there's a medical record with my name on it that says so doesn't mean it's actually true. Take a step back and look closely at the incidents and evidence in the file. Once you do, you'll see that a lot of things don't add up."Irvin had left the medical record behind. After Mr. Holland and the legal big shots had left, I had taken a closer look. I kept going over the unthinkable incidents in the record and every piece of evidence attached.I started to see holes in the information presented after thinking it through. Perhaps it was because I was much more level-headed.Not only had I never drugged Julianne, but I also probably never did anything that was mentioned in the medical record. Similar to Julianne's drugging case, the evidence attached must have been carefully fabricated. That was why I

Irvin's eyes narrowed. "Why is Mr. Walker here with you, Lianne? Are you two close?"Travis broke into a cold sweat at Irvin's questioning. His body began trembling against his will.But Julianne—being who she was—quickly regained her composure."Irvin…" she cried as she rushed toward him.She had called him in this manner numerous times since they were young. Perhaps it was due to recent events, but before the video came to light, it had never bothered him. However, now, it did.Hearing it made him uncomfortable, let alone holding Julianne, who had thrown herself at him. Still, he didn't avoid her completely because he knew how frail she was. Instead, he sidestepped her and gripped her arm.The look in her eyes changed when she saw him avoiding her.Before she could say anything, Irvin asked again, "Why are you here, Mr. Walker? Are you two close?"Julianne and Travis usually didn't act familiar with each other. Yet, he was in her home. She had even lost her composure in front
