Chapter 15
Trina booted up her computer, received the files, and quickly skimmed through them before snapping some photos. After logging into her account, she uploaded everything she had put together.
The trending topic, which had barely cooled down for two hours, exploded again.
What Trina posted was simple; a few pictures and two videos. No captions, nothing.
The Erst photo was Lisa’s medical record, clearly stating Recovered from illness, no further blood transfusions required, recommend early discharge.] The attending doctor’s signature was the bottom, dated the exact day Trina found out she was pregnant
The second image was a spread of Trina’s blood donation receipts over the past three years
Then came several screenshots of bank transfers, showing a constant stream of payments over the past three years. The sender? Lisa. The recipient! The very doctor who signed off on Lisa’s medical record.
As for the videos, the first one showed Lisa comering a doctor in a hospital stairwell. At first, the doctor seemed reluctant, but after a bit of convincing from Lisa, he finally nodded in agreement.
The final video was even more damning. It showed Trina leaving an exam room, with Cyril yanking her toward the blood donation room. After
rabbing a bag of her blood, he stormed off. Behind him, Trina looked completely shattered, her face a mix of pain and despair.
Within half an hour of the post going live, it hit over five million shares and shot straight to the top of the trending charts.
Public outrage erupted, hitting a fever pitch almost instantly. Netizens were not just shocked by the truth–they were pissed at being lied to for so long. The influencer who had previously posted about the topic? His account was swarmed, and he was too terrified to even make a prep.
Trina munched on snacks while enjoying her own drama unfold online, feeling relieved as if a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. Fach comment under the trending topics was speaking for her.
Only the topic [The power struggle in the wealthy family is like a soap opera, Mr. Cyril Banks embroiled in a scandall alone garnered tens of millions of comments and shares
Someone commented under the topic: I always thought Cyril wasn’t any good. A few hours ago, who said he was a man who values emotions? Come out and say something J

Another person commented (Lisa really plays her cards well, stringing Cyril along while harming others. The most pitiful is Trina, turning a blind eye to her husband’s affair while still donating blood for the mistress.[
[Both the cheater and the homewrecker must die!]
[Lock them up together; don’t let them hurt others Just looking at this couple makes me sick.)
Never seen such shameless people. That so–called pure and innocent Lisa looks slutty, yet tries to portray herself as so chaste. Bah…]
[ Cyril any better! Drawing his wife’s blood for his mistress, why doesn’t he just marry Lisa instead?
(But speaking of which, by doing this, Lisa must have violated the law, right?]
Another hot search topic soon climbed the ranks. The whole internet owei Trina an apology:]
It attracted the attention of many people. [Those who bashed Trina a few hours ago, come out and apologize.]

Someone changed the topic [People who genuinely want to live a good life always get bullied by seductresses. In the end, it’s the men who are despicable.J

Chapter 15
[With Cyril’s lack of personal integrity, can Banks Group’s management really be right?]
[I’ve already sold all my Banks Group’s stocks; let them sink or swim.]
Thankfully, Trina divorced him: she’ll shine on her own]
[Please stop mentioning cheating men and seductress, it’s physically uncomfortable.]
[Let me hug you. Trina; let me cherish you.]
Due to intense online discussions, Banks Group’s reputation took a nosedive, even affecting its stock prices. The entire Banks Group building was shrouded in gloom, with employees trembling in fear, hardly daring to breathe.
The CEO’s office was a disaster zone; several high–ranking officials were chased out by Cyril leaving only the assistant ready to face orders, come
what may
“Haven’t we reached Grosser yet?” asked Cyril.
“No, we’ve offered 15 million dollars, but they’re still hanging on to the order without processing it,” answered the assistant.
Cyril’s demeanor darkened further as he fumed. “Up the offer. Spend whatever it takes to quell this storm.”
The assistant, visibly nervous, responded, “It’s not about the price, sir. Clearly, Grosser is deliberately refusing the order.” He sneaked a glance at Cyril, thinking to himself, “Your notorious temper might have offended this top hacker at some point.
Cyril frowned in confusion. I have no grudge against hackers and have offered a high price. Why would Grosser refuse?
He took a deep breath and asked, “Do we have any clue who manipulated the trending search behind our backs!”
“Yes,” the assistant replied more confidently. “The trending search that slandered Trina’s reputation and claimed you and Ms. Reid were together was actually bought by Ms. Reid”
Cyril closed his eyes briefly. It’s indeed her, he thought.
Suddenly feeling defeated, he waved the assistant away.
His thoughts drifted back to a rainy night four years ago when his comrade–in–arms, who had taken a bullet for him, held his hand in his dying moments and said. “Cyril, I’m afraid I won’t make it today. I don’t regret taking that bullet for you, but there’s something unresolved.”
Cyril’s eyes were bloodshot, suppressing immense sorrow as he whispered, “Tell me.”
Thad a girlfriend before I enlisted. She’s been wasting for ine for three years. Now I can never go back, so I hope you’ll find her and take care of her after you retire!
Cyril hesitated but gave in under his friend’s earnest gaze. “Alright.”
A gentleman kept his word so after retiring, Cyril found Lisa and gave her everything she wanted, sparing no effort to fulfill his promise, except for love.
Run Liu grew increasingly greedy and demanding.
‘Does she think I didn’t notice her aggressive behavior at the charity galat Does she think I was unaware of her petty tricks? Whether it was transferring affection or seeking repayment, Cyril turned a blind eye because of his fallen conrade
She even lied about needing a blood transfusion, and Trina paid the price for that lie with her blood over three years. Lisa’s really despicable. What was I thinking before! Cyril clenched his fist and slammed it onto the table, drawing blood instantly,
