Her Revenge Returns (Lea and Alfred)

Evidence was being broadcasted in a different live stream, but the incident had already become a hot topic online. All the news and information attracted massive attention, and it was quickly picked up by everyone.

“Oh my god, several media reporters centered around the young journalist exclaimed. “They actually threatened and bribed the victim’s parents to come out and discredit their daughter by providing false testimony.”

“Look! This is a video of the victim’s parents being bribed and threatened.”

“Two whole boxes of cash, that’s 400,000 dollars!”

This poor girl was a model student working part–time. What kind of bloodsucking parents are these? Their daughter tragically died, and instead of seeking justice for her, they’re using her death to make money.”

“Listen! What is that father saying? He actually said that since she’s dead, it doesn’t matter what is said. At least they’re getting 400,000 dollars.”

“And the mother actually agreed.”

“Unbelievable.”

“The autopsy report has come out, and the victim was brutally tortured to death.”

“Injected with drugs, limbs broken and twisted, multiple lacerations…”

“Even though the photos of the body are covered with mosaics, you can still tell how horrific it was.”

All the evidence that these people saw was posted online, and everyone who watched online saw it

too.

Comments flooded the internet.

“So it turns out Calvin is really a sadistic monster who tortures women.”

“Where there’s one, there’s bound to be more. I urge a thorough investigation into him. There must be many girls who have died at his hands.”

“Exactly!”

“Please, Dark Union, investigate and expose him for who he truly is.”

“He’s indeed relying on his family background to bribe and coerce, fabricate evidence, and twist the truth.”

“So the Tanner family is just like the Oliver family.

“The Oliver family is still quite different. What Calvin did just now, trying to directly run over Mr. Brown, is beyond belief!”

“He even tried to run over those police officers.”

“His methods are so cruel.”

“Yeah, the Oliver family can’t compare to the Tanner family at all.”

“The Tanner family is one of the ten major families in Iverton, and Tanner Group is a 20–billion- dollar company

“A son–in–law of the Tanner family is a top leader in Iverton.”

“Phillip is the vice president of Conrad University and the director of Conrad Hospital.”

“Indeed, how could someone like Phillip have such a nephew? Such a misfortune for the family.”

“To be bold, I don’t think Phillip is so virtuous. The gene drugs incident, whether in the hospital or the university, those people were very close to him…”

When the deep waters of the Tanner family were stirred, all the previously hidden filth began to surface, revealing the full extent of the mess.

At this moment, the core members of the Tanner family were all gathered at Tanner Manor, watching the live stream. They wanted to see their family’s eldest grandson returned to them untainted.

Phillip was also there.

He stared at the screen, where comments discussing him were flooding in. His face turned ashen, his body rigid, and he felt like the world was spinning out of control.

‘It’s the Dark Union. I completely underestimated them,‘ he wondered.

He thought this would be the end of it, but instead, he had dug a deeper hole.

‘From the very beginning, I shouldn’t have provoked them, and I certainly shouldn’t have tried to eliminate this organization.‘ He was consumed by regret.

“Why is this happening? Why?” Sarah screamed, clutching her head. “How did these details get leaked? Why was it caught on camera?”

“What do we do now?” Jonathan was frantic and pacing.

Calvin was now facing even greater charges, fabricating evidence, bribery, and threats, and it could also involve other members of the family.

Calvin’s reputation was completely tarnished, and there was no way to clear it up.

The Tanner family’s reputation was in ruins, and they were under nationwide suspicion.

For a family like theirs, this was the worst possible scenario.

The work to the company were incalculable.

Phones and calls began ringing incessantly.

Jonathan answered one of the calls. “What? The stock has plummeted?”

Crash! His hand shook violently, and the phone fell to the floor. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

He turned to look at his father. “Dad…

Before Jonathan could say anything more, Anthony’s eyes rolled back, and he collapsed to the ground with a loud bang.

“Dad!”

Tanner Manor erupted into chaos.

At Conrad University, everyone in the classroom was watching the group surrounding Lea. This time, their focus was on Abigail, exuding a heavy aura of authority.

The online comments and the frenzied opinions of netizens were their true reflections.

Shannon’s earlier rebuttals had hit the mark.

No, the reality was even worse and more brutal than Shannon had guessed.

They were all brilliant individuals with the ability to independently analyze events, seeing things more clearly.

For such matters and such people, they had previously been pressuring Lea to apologize to Abigail.

She had no right or confidence to make such demands.

With a loud bang, Rita, who was sitting at Lea’s desk, fell to the ground.

She went pale with pain, biting her lip tightly, unable to make a sound. She didn’t dare to even

breathe.

Abigail bit her lip hard, her hands clenched into fists as she struggled to hold herself together, tears streaming down her face from fear and confusion.

She was truly terrified.

She never imagined Calvin’s situation would escalate to this extent.

Even with the Erickson family’s power and influence, in the face of this situation and the scrutiny of the entire internet, there was nothing they could do. They couldn’t silence everyone, after all.

Her elaborate appearance and the expensive, luxurious accessories she wore now seemed extremely ironic.

“But this isn’t Abigail’s fault… Surprisingly, a classmate spoke up in her defense.

“Shut up.” Before the classmate could say more, others quickly shut them down.

On the floor, Rita was trying to get up when Lea extended her foot and stepped directly on her hand.

“Ah… Rita cried out in pain and looked up, only to meet Lea’s intense gaze.

Lea’s eyes were dark and stormy, like a hurricane, as if a force was about to explode from her and destroy everything in its path.

But Lea didn’t actually look at Rita; her gaze swept past the screen.

The small figure who had been guiding the interpretation and asking for evidence from Dwayne’s secretary had already disappeared.

Bluebird had vanished just in time.

Lea then fixed her gaze on Abigail. “Why are you crying? What right do you have to cry? Are you feeling wronged? What, do you think you have it worse than the girls who died at Calvin’s hands?”

Initially, some people felt a bit of sympathy for Abigail upon seeing her tears. But after hearing Lea’s words, their sympathy evaporated, replaced by feelings of disgust and revulsion at the pretense.

Lea crossed her arms and leaned back in her chair, her gaze sharpening, as if it had the power to pin Abigail in place.

“Aren’t you supposed to apologize?” She glanced at her pink diamond watch.

It was a gift from Alfred, crafted from natural pink diamonds by the most renowned watch designer and craftsman.

With only two minutes left before class started, she said, “I’m giving you just two minutes.”

Seeing the gazes of those around her, Abigail stopped crying in fear. But hearing Lea’s ultimatum, she gritted her teeth in frustration.

‘She wants me to publicly lower my head? Not a chance. I’ve never bowed to anyone in my life, especially not to someone like her, she thought.

“Oh, so you’re planning to kneel and apologize to me? Fine then, go ahead,” Lea said, deliberately misinterpreting Abigail’s hesitation.

Abigail’s body trembled, her eyes wide with disbelief, as her body shook uncontrollably.
