Coming from a rural backwater, she fought hard to make a name for herself in the city.
As hope bloomed,Sean swindled her savings,trapping her in lifelong predatory loans.
When she questioned his actions,he deemed her love insufficient.
Chloe, who had been laughing,had her legs broken,expelling her from the city.
United by a common goal,we formed an alliance.
The stabbing was all a ruse.
The pregnancy was a lie.
I shook my head:
“Let’s watch.”
As expected,during the playback of the wedding’s memory video, Sean’s face darkened.:
“Chloe, do you remember Hannah?”
In front of the live audience, Chloe didn’t sense the gravity of the situation.:
“She ran off with her lover, didn’t she?”
Cupping her hands,she shouted to the camera:
“Hey,if you see a Hannah Lewis,help her out.She’s a two-timer who stole my husband’s money.”
The live chat exploded with messages like “find Hannah,”“shameless slut,”and“Chloe’s so cute.”
She didn’t care how many women named Hannah Lewises were being slandered.
All she wanted was for me to be dead.
But Sean’s eyes were as cold as ice:
“She may be bad,but you’re even worse.”
“Sean,what are you talking about?It’s our wedding.”
Ignoring her shock,the screen started to play footage of the hospital’s corrupt deals, including fake drugs, overcharging patients, patient deaths, and tax evasion.
Enough to completely ruin the Bennetts’ reputation.
“You’re insane?”
Chloe’s parents tried to stop the video from playing, but they were blocked by Carter’s security guards. They were panicking below the stage.
Chloe’s lips trembled,tears welling:
“Why?”
“You dare ask why!”
Sean slapped her hand,knocking her to the ground:
“You killed the only woman who truly loved me.Hannah loved me so much. How could you hurt her and our unborn child?”
“I’ve been by your side,cleaning your messes,loving you most.”
“You want a kid?I can give you one.Last night was amazing,wasn’t it?”
Sean sneered and said:
“Touching you disgusts me.Last night,I hired a random escort with the most disgusting disease.You’ll live in hell.”
Chloe collapsed,laughing and crying:
“How could you?”
“Even if I hurt Hannah,it was out of love. How could you hurt someone who loves you so deeply?”
Sean threw a stack of photos at her face,and the edges cut her delicate skin.
“You call this love?”
The camera zoomed in—photos of Chloe with countless men,including men of different races, and records of her abortions.
Her hands shook uncontrollably, and her eyes widened in shock.:
“That’s not me!I didn’t do this.”
Sean frowned:
“Photos don’t lie.Hannah gave them to me,urging me to guide you.”
