The True Lady Strikes Back novel (Cecilia and Christopher)

Chapter 180

Cecilia’s words made Jayden’s face change slightly, while his fists under the table clenched.

He tried to keep calm, but panic had gripped him.

With Juliana’s vicious temper, she really would record what he did for her as evidence.

In fact, he probably wasn’t the only victim. Every wrongdoing of the Yancey family would be used as

leverage by Juliana.

Thinking of this, Jayden broke out in a cold sweat.

In a wealthy family, few had a truly clean record. They might be able to fend off those on the outside,

but it was impossible to do the same toward those on the inside.

He tried to keep calm and looked at Cecilia coldly.

“Don’t try to cheat me. I won’t be fooled by you!”

Cecilia took out her phone and unlocked it. After clicking on the information Juliana saved in the cloud,

she handed her phone to Jayden.

“Look.”

Jayden’s hand trembled uncontrollably when he took the phone.

When he saw the content clearly, his face turned pale.

He tried desperately to delete the information with the phone but got no response, as if the phone had

crashed.

Cecilia watched his pathetic reaction and said, “Don’t waste your time. Only I can operate my phone.”

After saying that, she swiftly grabbed her phone back.

As if all his strength had been sucked from him, Jayden collapsed into a

chair. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

The vicious look he showed her earlier was now replaced by a pleading

one.

“Cecilia, on Mom and Dad’s account, please don’t expose the evidence, okay?”

He didn’t expect that he would submit to Cecilia one day.

He had bowed toward her before, but it wasn’t sincere then. This time he

was truly begging her pathetically,

Holding the phone with her thumb and forefinger, Cecilia fiddled with it. “Emotional blackmail? It doesn’t

work on me, I’m showing you the criminal evidence collected by Juliana so that I can see the despair

on your face. Now that I’ve seen it, it isn’t as fun as I expected it to be.”

After saying that, she got up and left.

Jayden immediately stopped her and said, “Cecilia, I will convince Mom and Dad to give you all their

assets. Please don’t hand over the evidence to the police. I will take responsibility for everything!”

Money lost can be earned again, while family assets that were given away could be reattained.

However, if one’s future was destroyed, one would lose everything.

Thus, he felt that it was worth sacrificing himself to save his family.

“It’s too late.”

After saying that, Cecilia left the interrogation room.

She gave all the information to the police.

Juliana’s collection of crimes was massive but was mostly unsubstantiated and required further

evidence.

Cecilia’s efforts were limited by the need to be discreet. Otherwise, the Yancey family would notice.

After coming out of the police station, she anonymously published on the internet the link and password

to Juliana’s collection on the cloud.

When the wrongdoings of the Yancey family spread online, Fiona also hosted a live stream at the

hospital.

She didn’t manage to broadcast the news due to her capture earlier.

In the video, Fiona’s face was not only bruised but also covered with bandages. One could barely see

her face at all.

Without her press pass, no one would have recognized her.

As a “megastar” among reporters, she would have countless netizens watching whenever she started

her livestream.

The comments section was filled with expressions of concern to her. [Miss, did you get beaten in your

pursuit of the latest story? Are you all right?]

[Who is the bastard who dared to beat this reporter up? He must be

exposed!]

[Oh my God, I feel so sorry for you. There’s this ointment for wounds called Bepanthen. You can try it.]

[Why are you still livestreaming in that pitiful condition? Are you going to reveal something explosive?]

Looking at the comments popping up rapidly, Fiona said in a hoarse voice, “Today’s news is about the

Yancey family. Before we talk about it, let’s digress and watch two videos first.”

After saying that, she played the video of Jayden threatening Cecilia and Yvette trying to calm him

down.

The video clearly showed Jayden had something on Fiona, and she was being threatened over it.

After watching the video, the netizens, who were sympathetic to Fiona to begin with, became even

more furious.

[Everyone in the Yancey family is evil. When will all of them just die?“]

[Don’t give in, miss! We all support you. Stay strong!]

[Am I the only one wondering what dirt he has on her? Is it something we’re allowed to know?]

The purpose of Fiona’s livestream was to reveal the “dirt.”

Just as the netizens were curious, she spoke in a candid tone. “Everyone knows about Juliana’s

dismemberment, while I was also caught by the criminal gang and S**ually assaulted. When Jayden

heard about it, he used my reputation as a bargaining chip to get the infamous. Yates Corporation to

sign him despite his terrible reputation. Everyone knows my temperament. Even if I have to fie to the

bitter end, I will never be threatened, so I took the initiative to expose it. No matter what people think of

me, I have a clear conscience because I’m the victim!” After she finished saying her piece, Fiona

moved to the main topic. Taking the Yancey family as an example, she did a deep analysis of the

family’s contradictions and problems related to their characters and principles.

As what she said was reasonable and supported by what had happened, the netizens agreed with her

perspective.

The livestream lasted for nearly an hour. At the end of it, Fiona couldn’t even speak anymore.

Nevertheless, she felt very satisfied.

Meanwhile, Cecilia arrived in the middle of the livestream.

As soon as the livestream ended, she gave Fiona some warm honey to drink.

After Fiona finished drinking, Cecilia said, “I have told Jayden to keep his mouth shut. He won’t

threaten you anymore. You didn’t have to make it public.”

After drinking the honey, Fiona’s throat felt much better.

She broke into a faint smile. “Rather than hiding it and worrying about it coming out, I rather it be

exposed.”

Although this was true, Fiona would suffer from being the center of gossip for it.

Cecilia looked at her sadly and asked, “Do you need me to control the comments section?”

“No, I chose to expose it because I am psychologically prepared for the consequences. Be it

expressions of sympathy or ridicule, I’ll accept all of them.”

Given that she had chosen to go into journalism and persevered till then, it was clear how ment*lly

strong Fiona was.

If Jayden dared to threaten her, he would have to suffer the backlash from her.

Cecilia looked at the resolute Fiona and felt that God had been unfair to the latter.

“How can such an exceptional human being be made to bear so much. pain and suffering.”

However, Fiona hated it when others sympathized or pitied her.

She blinked at Cecilia and said, “Ceci, don’t look at me like that. I don’t like it.”

Cecilia collected herself and said, “Sorry, I…”

Before she could finish, the door to the ward was suddenly pushed open. A man drenched in sweat

rushed in.

He thundered at Fiona, “How did you end up like that?”

When she saw that Fiona was not angry, Cecilia knew they were on good

terms.

The man’s feelings for Fiona seemed to be beyond platonic because other than anger, he was

brimming with distress.

Cecilia raised her finger and pointed out the door.

After Fiona nodded, she turned around and left the ward to give Fiona

and the man some privacy.
