I walk over and pick up the T-shirt and question Emily: "You said you were the only one here. Then why is here a man's clothes?"
Michael doesn't know she has bought this house and has never been here before, so it can't be his clothes. So there is only one possibility that it is left behind by another man.
Emily isn't flustered at all. She says to Michael: "Honey, this is the new clothes I bought for you a few days ago. I forgot to give them to you."
I hand the T-shirt to Michael: "Check if it's your size."
Michael doesn't take the T-shirt and points at me.
"Amanda Rose, you still want to sow discord between us? Listen, no matter what you say today, I won't let you off."
As he said that, he picks up a chair nearby and is about to smash it at me.
I know Michael loves Emily, but I didn't expect that he would believe whatever Emily says is true without even looking at the size of the T-shirt.
I raise my phone and say: "Michael, I've already called the police. If you dare to touch me, you'll be jailed!"
In my last life, I didn't call the police in time, which led to me being severely injured. In this life, of course, I won't make the same mistake again.
Emily quickly stops Michael: "Honey, don't hit Mandy. It's all my fault."
I knew Emily was afraid that something would happen to Michael and it would affect her quality of life.
She turns to look at me and says.
"Mandy, I've always regarded you as my bestie. I've always thought of you in everything. I give you whatever you want. But you're too selfish. In order to be with Michael, you tricked me into having an abortion, and now you want to frame me by saying there's another man here.
She raises her hand and touches her abdomen, crying even more pitifully.
"But my child was innocent. Do you know how much I suffered from losing my child?"
I have to admit that Emily is really good at acting.
This heartfelt cry makes it seem as if I were some heinous criminal.
The comments on the live-stream are filled with abuse.
"This woman is so disgusting. She deliberately breaks up other people's families and doesn't even spare an unborn child. Why doesn't she just go to hell?"
"She looks so ugly and has been with so many men. Which blind man would fall for her?"
"She killed a little life and will get her retribution. I curse her to die a bad death!"
They not only curse me but also my family.
It is the first time in my life that I'm cyber-bullied, and it's terrifying. My face turns pale.
Seeing this, Emily is very pleased. She falls into Michael's arms and says: "Honey, I'm not feeling well. Let's go home."
Michael takes Emily's hand and looks at me sharply: "Amanda Rose, I warn you not to contact Emily again. Stay away from her!"
After that, he takes Emily and leaves.
I look at the influencer who is still live-streaming. The anger I have endured for so long finally erupted. I step forward, grab her phone, and smash it on the ground.
The influencer is so angry that she goes crazy and rushes up to hit me.
I grab her hair and throw her to the ground, then I sit on her and slap her several times.
"Don't you dare be so mean-spirited and spread malicious rumors about me!"
The influencer is not as strong as me and beg for mercy after being beaten.
The live-stream content is edited and posted online by many people. I'm cursed in various ways. Some people even photoshop my fake obituary and spread it everywhere, and put curses in front of my door.
If I were still in my last life, I might have endured it silently to avoid trouble, but now I'm different. I need to be brave and protect myself, otherwise, it would be a waste of the chance given by fate for me to be reborn. I collect evidence and call the police.
I also receive a call from my boss, saying that due to the impact of the online public opinion on my image, I'm temporarily suspended from work and can only resume work after the matter is resolved.
I'm very angry, but I also know that no amount of explanation would be useful. I need evidence to prove myself.
