Chapter 9
I stopped watching the pitiful sight of Shakti being dragged away and turned toward my father who’d been waiting for me.
Enjoy it, Shakti.
The pain you feel is less than one percent of what I felt before I died!
I heard that after Shakti was taken away that day, Benjamin ordered her to be tortured half to death.
Not only did he torture her, but somehow Benjamin managed to get Shakti’s parents‘ small business shut down directly.
Benjamin also sent Shakti to prison.
The charges were that Shakti used banned drugs and damaged the reputation of the Hayes Group.
The Hayes Group sued Shakti, demanding that she be imprisoned and pay a huge compensation.
Shakti’s parents, having lost their business, couldn’t afford the
compensation at all. They immediately packed their bags, moved to another city, and tried to hide from this massive debt.
But how could the Hayes family let them escape as they wished? Sadly, Shakti in prison had no way of knowing any of this.
Shakti only knew her parents would never visit her again, and different people came to “take care” of her in prison every day.

After finishing Shakti’s story, Dad took a sip of tea and told me about Alexander’s fate.
Alexander had completely vanished from the exclusive society now.
That day, Benjamin crushed Alexander’s genitals beneath his foot. Not only did Alexander lose all male function, but he also developed chronic illnesses.

According to the Hayes servants, blood–curdling screams from both men and women echoed from the basement every night.
Presumably, besides Alexander, the other person was Benjamin’s ex–wife, Sophia.
“Emily, don’t worry. In a couple of days, those rumors won’t mention your name anymore.”
Dad patted my head, smiling as he promised.
Dad said he made a deal with Benjamin. For Benjamin’s sake, he’d stay out of this and continue the Reynolds–Hayes cooperation.
But in return, Benjamin must help the Reynolds family protect my reputation.
Help eliminate those spreading rumors.

But the vicious woman who framed her best friend’s boyfriend, and that failed Nice Guy.
Hearing this, I just smiled and moved on.
After leaving Alexander and Shakti, my life returned to normal.

Living my own life, no longer coveted or humiliated by anyone.
