Just then, Rosalie ran over holding her child’s hand and knelt before me.
She told the child: “Juniper, apologize to this lady for what happened the other day.”
What could a child understand? She just glared at me defiantly.
Those eyes looked like they wanted to devour me.
I laughed mockingly. “What scheme are you plotting now?”
‘Is there some media hiding nearby to film you showing how I’m bullying the legitimate wife and daughter,
then use it against me again?”
I pointed to the security camera under the eaves. “I’d advise you-there are cameras recording everything
clearly.”
Liam looked incredulous. “Adrienne, how can you think that of me?”
‘Isn’t twisting the truth your specialty?”
I signaled the security guard. “Please see them out.”
But Liam gripped my wheelchair tightly, refusing to let me leave.
Adrienne, I was wrong. I’m sorry.”
Rosalie wasn’t having it. She jumped up from the ground, tugging at Liam’s clothes: “Liam, what are you doing? You’ve achieved success now-you don’t need to grovel to her anymore.”
Are you afraid of her?”
Why apologize to her?”
Little Juniper started wailing: “Daddy, go home!”
Liam angrily shook off Rosalie. “What do you know?”
“Adrienne’s been with me all these years. I really do owe her.”
“What are you saying, Liam? You helped her plenty during those years with her too!”
“You got to sleep with her for free all this time. She enjoyed herself plenty!”

Slap!
The blow to Rosalie’s face catching everyone off guard.
“Rosalie, without Adrienne, I’d still be getting trampled on the streets, forced to drink people’s piss to pay my debts, or secretly eliminated, or hiding from creditors my whole life.”
“She didn’t look down on me when I had nothing. She helped me without hesitation and kept me by her side
to mentor me.”
“She’s been hurt because of me, lost two children for me-can’t I show her some concern?”
‘Why are you making such a fuss? How can your heart be so dirty?”
Rosalie covered her reddened face as tears poured from her eyes.
You dare hit me?!”
‘Juniper and I waited for you at home all those years while you stayed by her side. Now we finally made it
out and came to North Capitol with you, and this is how you treat me?!”
I’m taking Juniper and leaving!”
Liam was worked up: “Then leave! Stop bothering me!”
Rosalie swallowed her fury and left with Juniper in a huff, not bothering to glance back.
Liam didn’t chase after them, still wanting to talk with me.
interrupted: “It’s nighttime. Go after them quickly, or you’ll regret it if something happens.”
‘Adrienne…”
Just leave.”
Liam had wronged not just me, but Rosalie and the child too.
From Rosalie’s perspective, Liam spent years with me, publicly claiming I was his wife.
While she, the legitimate wife, could only hide in corners with their daughter, living in shadows without any recognition.
She could only watch helplessly as a stranger supported and loved her husband.
No woman could tolerate that.

I understood her somewhat, but I wouldn’t forgive them.
Mrs. Irvine wheeled me inside, and I finally had time to check my phone.
The online controversy had intensified further.
But this time, it wasn’t everyone attacking me.
People were questioning whether Liam’s words were true, whether he had wronged me.
What I didn’t expect was that Liam quickly issued a statement.
He admitted to deceiving me with a fake marriage certificate and explained that eighty percent of Sterling
Corp’s current success was due to my support.
He stood before cameras in anguished confession, tearfully saying:
I’m sorry. I was angry then, so I issued that statement that twisted the truth.”
Now I realize my mistake. Adrienne is my lifelong benefactor.”
She helped me, saved my life, and miscarried twice because of me.”
She’s not a homewrecker-I deceived her with a fake marriage certificate.”
‘ublic opinion immediately exploded, with everyone condemning him:
Beast!]
Ms. Carter was your greatest benefactor! How could you repay her kindness with betrayal and treat her like
his!]
Does a backstabbing CEO of Sterling Corp deserve to exist in North Capitol?]
Support Ms. Carter fighting back!]
Due to public outrage, Sterling Corp’s stock fell faster than I’d imagined.
In just three months, everything was gone.
Only debt remained.
With Dad’s help, I quickly absorbed all of Sterling Corp’s business.
This doubled my net worth again.

There was also good news-the repair specialist had restored my trophy perfectly, without a single crack
visible.
Later, reporters revealed that Liam had mortgaged all his North Capitol assets and returned to the countryside with his wife and daughter.
They kept trying to divorce.
But with so much debt, creditors constantly visited, preventing the divorce.
The family could only live in hiding.
The child’s elite school was also ruined.
‘inally, unable to bear the burden, they jumped into the river with their child.
After cutting ties with Liam, I moved and changed my contact information.
n the end, I received a timed email in my work inbox.

Adrienne, I’ve wronged you in this life. In the next, I’ll repay my debt.]
