Chapter 46
Skylar had just said that when she heard Kenny inhaling deeply out of anger.
Kenny thundered, “Say that again!”
Skylar cocked one of her well–filled brows and flashed a half–smile. “You’re not that old, yet it seems
you’ve got a lot of health issues. I suggest you do a check–up at the hospital since your ears and brain aren’t functioning like normal.” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
She cut the call short, ending it after that. No good words would come from a scoundrel, so Kenny would.
surely have nothing good to say at that point.
Although the phone call left her feeling significantly satisfied, she still felt a dull ache in her chest. After all, they were people she had once eagerly wanted to get along with.
She soon snapped out of it. She clicked her tongue upon thinking about how blind to the truth she used to
be
Kenny gritted his teeth upon seeing that Skylar had hung up on him. His charming face was contorted into
a hideous frown.
“What did she say? Was she still being stubborn? Does she not think about the consequences when doing things? How can I have such a vile young sister?” Samuel’s features had darkened like a storm.
“So, she’s not going to delete her post or apologize to me, huh? Maisy bit down on her red lower lip. She
wondered who had given Skylar the boost of courage to cause her such trouble.
“What on earth did she say?” Sadie asked Kenny.
*She firmly held her ground and refused to delete her post. She even insulted me,” Kenny snarled through gritted teeth.
“Skylar won’t listen to what’s good for her and is ignoring our instructions. Since that’s the case, we have
to do PR damage control if this matter trends in the media.
“That way, she’ll be the humiliated one in the end! We can’t let Malsy become the target of online hate!” Samuel decided without giving it any thought.
Maisy pouted
pouted and murmured, “Thanks, Samuel.”
Peter, who’d barely said a word, frowned. “Skylar doesn’t seem like she’d be that stupid. Let’s check her social media first. Maybe she’s only being arrogant for now but will delete it later.”
They checked Skylar’s Instagram account several times in the next 30 minutes, but nothing had changed. Skylar hadn’t deleted the post.
By then, the terms “the other woman” and “cheater” were trending online.
The topic had even blown up on TikTok. Almost everyone who used the app in Jipsburg City could see
screenshots of Skylar’s post.
Maisy’s phone kept ringing from a barrage of incoming calls and texts.
People kept asking why she had become the other woman in someone else’s relationship. They had looked into Christopher and knew he was only a clerk for a small company. Everyone couldn’t understand why she’d be interested in a mere clerk.
“What? Why is everyone believing in this lie?” Maisy whined to the Williamses.
Several alerts rang out from Sadie’s phone, too. Everyone who reached out to her also asked about the
affair.
With a deep breath, she turned to her three sons and said, “Resolve this matter at once! Make everyone know Skylar photoshopped that picture!”
“Got it,” they replied.
Maisy clutched her phone as she hung her head low, a murderous rage flickering in her eyes.
She cursed in her heart, “You’re asking for it, Skylar! I’m going to make you the most hated person in Jipsburg! Everyone’s going to avoid you like the plague!”
Then, she clicked on Christopher’s WhatsApp contact and texted him.
Caleb only dared to approach Skylar with his phone in the afternoon when she finished her work. “Skylar, look! People screenshotted your post. They reposted it on TikTok and even on Facebook!”
Skylar glanced at his phone. She had been mentally prepared for the incident to become widespread.
After all, many of her followers were classmates from Jipsburg City. Most of them would likely recognize
Maisy.
Still, she was surprised that the news had spread this quickly.
“That cheater and his other woman deserve to be insulted! They did this to themselves!” Caleb expressed his support for Skylar.
He figured Christopher wouldn’t have the nerve to latch onto Skylar since his dirty deeds had been exposed now.
