Chapter 171 A Deluge of Abuse
Seeing Sarah’s terrified look, Betty guessed that something very serious must have happened. Was their magazine going to close down?
Betty didn’t know what was going on. She asked with a puzzled look, “What’s wrong?
What happened?”
Sarah hesitated, not knowing how to say it to her.
“Sarah, come on. I’m so anxious.”
Sarah’s eyes told Betty that what happened had something to do with her.
Sarah said, “Go to your Twitter. You are a hit again! But don’t get angry after reading those tweets.”
Betty couldn’t guess what it was. It didn’t seem to be good news. Otherwise, why would Sarah who was always frank and straightforward suddenly hesitate?
She quickly entered her Twitter and immediately saw the latest trending topics.
She was completely stunned.
The trending topics were all about her…
[Betty is shameless]
[Doxing Betty]
[Mrs. Martin’s true face]
What was going on?
She quickly clicked into a trending topic and saw that several well-known entertainment influencers exposed all her information!
They posted her graduation photos when she was a child, her family background, origin, school grades, associations, and so on!
They also exposed that she was Roger’s illegitimate daughter and that she prostituted herself in college.
They said that Betty was an illegitimate daughter, and Sherry was a homewrecker.
When Betty was in college, she was a tramp.
She slept with many men, dirty and promiscuous. She didn’t deserve Kerwin at all.
Betty turned pale as she realized the seriousness of the situation.
After those rumors spread for two years, they gradually subsided. However, they were known by the public again in vivid detail.
How could she face the public in the future?
If she was still alone, she wouldn’t care about such rumors. But she was Kerwin’s wife now.
It would disgrace him…
Betty froze there, motionless.
She felt as if she had been stripped of all her clothes. She stood in front of everyone and watched them judge and laugh at her.
They accused, abused and ridiculed her, as if her mother were a shameless homewrecker and she were a shameless gold digger. However, that was not the truth!
She was innocent. That wasn’t what really happened two years ago!
Her mother was also innocent! Sherry was the real victim. It was Roger and his family who should be judged and scolded.
Betty felt dizzy.
Jessica asked with concern, “Betty, are you alright? You don’t look well.”
Obviously, Jessica also knew what happened.
She and Sherry might be the last ones to know this thing. Their eyes had told Betty the answer.
Betty’s heart sank and she said, “I’m fine. Don’t worry.”
She said in a weak and low voice. She already had no strength to think about other things.
The office was very quiet, and only the sound of tapping the keyboards could be heard.
Lydia didn’t come this morning. She went directly to do the interview and wouldn’t be back until noon. Otherwise, Betty couldn’t stay in the office. Lydia could almost kill people with her sharp tongue.
Betty tried to ignore the posts on Twitter, but she couldn’t help reading them again and again.
As time passed by, rumors about her went viral on Twitter.
The WhatsApp chat records of several so-called “relevant people” were also posted on Twitter. Their words were all slanders and groundless accusations, explicit and harsh.
These posts were forwarded madly, and all kinds of voices filled Chicago.
[How can an illegitimate daughter be worthy of the president of the Tylman Group? That’s insane! Get divorced, get divorced!]
[Mrs. Martin’s origin is so strange. No wonder Kerwin kept it a secret. She’s an illegitimate daughter, and her mother is a tramp. Kerwin, you were fooled!]
[Betty’s mother is a shameless bi*ch, at homewrecker! The mother and the daughter are both sluts!]
[What a shameless woman! She actually prostituted herself when she was in college!]
[I knew this woman when I was in college. She’s really slutty! Prostituted herself and slept with all kinds of men!]
Betty bit her lip and held back her tears.
Videos of someone interviewing Betty’s college classmates were also posted online.
[The interviewer, “You were Betty’s college classmate and the monitor. You must know
Betty very well. Was she really a tramp who prostituted herself as it widely spread on the Internet?”] NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
[The monitor, “Yes… Alas, why did you suddenly mention her? Anyway… Oh, I don’t want to talk about this. It’s offensive.
Anyway, she was of ill reputation.”]
[The interviewer, “I guess the monitor doesn’t dare to tell the truth, but we can tell that he was trying to tell us something else.
We found several of Betty’s other classmates.
Do they dare to tell the truth?”]
[Classmate A, “It caused a big sensation at that time, and many people knew it. She seemed to have slept with many men.”]
[Classmate B, “She had a boyfriend, but after he knew that she was a tramp, he broke up with her and went abroad. That’s all I know.”]
What Betty went through two years ago reappeared, submerging her in the inferno again!
Classmates and teachers’ disgusted expressions and mean words poured into her head again!
She would have committed suicide if she hadn’t been worried that no one would take care of Sherry for the rest of her life. Now, this evil wave knocked her down mercilessly again. She no longer had the strength to get
Betty couldn’t hold back her tears anymore.
She had a huge heartache, as if being punched in the heart.
She fought back her sobs, trotted out of the office, ran to the bathroom and locked herself in it, sobbing.
Kevin got up and looked at Betty’s empty desk and said to Sarah, “Is she crying?”
Sarah said, “Just shut up and do your work!”
Sarah knew that Betty just wanted to be alone at this time. They would only make the situation worse if they comforted her. She sighed. What was all this sh*t? This might be the most difficult thing for Betty.
The cell phone on Betty’s desk was flashing.
It was a call from Kerwin, and Jeffrey also called her. However, Betty was just slumping on the toilet with tears streaming down her cheeks.
