Seven Years of Marriage with Jake

Chapter 82

Chapter 3

Richard had serious pull. Before long, a group of social media influencers showed up, all with their phones out, streaming me live.

"Folks, we've got a major scoop! This woman might look plain, but underneath, she's rotten to the core!"

"For years, she's relied on her cousin's generosity, constantly demanding money. Even while her cousin is pregnant, she treats her like a servant -making her run errands, do the shopping, and pick her up when she's drunk."

"Despite her cousin's kindness, she's ungrateful and reckless with money, making her cousin cover every expense. She's not only drained her cousin's funds but also turned her cousin's villa into a hideout for her boy toys and maxed out her cousin's credit card to pay off huge gambling debts!"

"And her private life is a mess. She's married but still engages in numerous affairs, both with her villa's boy toys and others."

She even had surgery to reconstruct her hymen to appear innocent and deceive more men.

"I've heard she's been treated for syphilis at least ten times in recent years. She's so depraved, it's like she can't live without a man."

The influencers' sensationalism and outrageous exaggerations quickly sparked public outrage.

Lies and distortions spread like wildfire.

Livestreams were soon inundated with insults aimed at me: "Her cousin and husband must be horrified to be associated with such a shameless woman!"

"She's not even human-she's a walking disaster!"

"Why does someone like her even exist?"

My photos quickly topped trending searches.

"Bloodsucking Woman," "Toxic Cousin," "Whore" - these became my new labels.

As the influencers stirred up the crowd, people began throwing trash at me. Some even tossed beer bottles.
