  Next, it was his turn. Oliver had invited me to a café. The location was nice, and the café exuded luxury, a perfect match for his façade of wealth that was just for show. Today, he had dressed meticulously, wearing a tailored suit, his hair neatly styled, but the gauntness of his cheeks betrayed the toll the past weeks had taken on him. As soon as I sat down, he eagerly poured me some water. "I remember you don't like lemon water, so I specifically asked for plain water." I glanced at the cup he had touched, and a wave of disgust washed over me. "Cindy killed herself." His expression froze, and he looked at me with wide eyes, his voice trembling. "You said that you would let the winner go. Now that Cindy is dead, I've won, right? You'll give me a chance to live, won't you?" "Did you ever love Cindy?" Oliver shook his head without hesitation, urgency lacing his voice as he declared his loyalty. "No, I was only with her to gain access to the resources of the wealthy

  With me pushing from behind, Cindy's situation quickly dominated the headlines across all platforms. Thugs with cameras gathered outside Cindy's home, relentlessly blocking her way. Every time she stepped out, they rushed forward to broadcast her shame live. After several encounters, Cindy could no longer bear it and called the police. The officers arrived and took the thugs away, but I had arranged for some sharp-tongued women and those whose marriages had been wrecked by mistresses to join the fray. These people were far more terrifying than the thugs. Especially the betrayed wives, who, once they learned about Cindy's past, began a relentless campaign of harassment against her, determined to drive her to the edge. They even pooled their own money to take turns calling her with threats. After Cindy's scandal broke, the dirty secrets behind her company's third-party intervention advisors started to surface one after another. Their clients banded together to sue Cindy

  After I had my son cremated, I passed out. When I opened my eyes again, it was three days later. Dazed, I held my son's ashes close to me, sitting in the most luxurious presidential suite in Ironreach, watching Oliver and Cindy engage in an online war. Cindy had unveiled a series of shady incidents from Oliver's time abroad, where he had been entangled with multiple female students. She not only provided evidence but also laid out the timeline clearly, making it easy for the onlookers to follow along. The most outrageous part was that Cindy had tracked down the women involved, who collectively reported Oliver, claiming he had used deception, drugs, and coercion to manipulate them. Afterward, he not only failed to keep his promises but also denied knowing them. As I stared at the timeline online, a sharp pain gripped my heart. It turned out that during that period when he was so busy that he had no time for me, he had actually been fooling around with others. I h

  "Cynthia" stared at my dad in shock, then suddenly bowed before him. "Mr. Woodward, what a surprise to see you in Ironreach! "Why didn't you let me know you were coming? I could have arranged for my dad to give you a proper welcome." As soon as she finished speaking, the faces of "Cynthia's" entourage soured instantly. They looked at her with disdain, their hushed voices clear enough to hear. "She's the fake heiress, hurting the real one? She must have a death wish." "That child was killed by her own hands. I had nothing to do with it." "At most, we were accomplices, but she's the real murderer here." "We should report her. After all, she forced us to do this, and we hardly knew the real heiress. It's understandable to make a mistake." "Cynthia", who was bowing, listened to their words, and her already ghastly expression darkened further. She crawled closer to my dad, tears streaming down her face as she pleaded, "It's all a misunderstanding! This is all Olive

  My father looked at me with red-rimmed eyes, his voice choked with emotion as he cautiously reached up to stroke my hair. "Karen, I'm so sorry for what you've endured." Unable to hold back any longer, I threw myself into his embrace, sobbing uncontrollably. I clutched his arms tightly, wanting to pour out every ounce of anguish I felt. My father gently patted my back, murmuring, "It's okay now. I'm here. I'll make sure to destroy anyone who has hurt you." My cries echoed loudly, drawing "Cynthia" and her entourage out of the delivery room. My father turned his back to them, hiding his face from view. Seeing me with tears streaming down my face, "Cynthia" scoffed, "Oh, look at that! The mistress has a sugar daddy after all."I figured someone like you, a side piece, would be just a scum without parents, raised by no one." My father's fists clenched in anger, and he almost turned around to confront her, but I gripped his arm tightly. He frowned at me, and I shook my

  Oliver. I lifted my gaze to meet Oliver's furrowed brow. He looked at me with disdain, turning his eyes away in disgust. "Karen Woodward, how did you let yourself get into this state?"I told you long ago to stop interfering in my life. Why did you insist on getting close to me?"Do you really think that just because you had my child, I would marry you? You're dreaming. The only person I love is Cynthia." Hearing those words felt like my heart was being ripped apart. Even though I had suspected his betrayal—being cornered by "Cynthia" in the delivery room was a clear sign—I still winced at his words meant to placate her, drawing a line between us. We had loved each other for eight years. From helping each other in a foreign land to struggling together when we returned to start a business, we had never given up on each other, even during the toughest times. Now, with my father's covert support, his company had successfully gone public, and his career was thriving.
