Chapter 7
I suddenly remembered how Noah had shoved me to the ground during an argument, leaving huge bruises on my shin.[]
A few days ago, he’d also slapped me..
All of this had been recorded by the security cameras in our house.
Elijah continued explaining:
“These scattered, ongoing injuries may seem minor individually, but when compiled together, they can prove you’ve been subjected to a pattern of domestic violence.”
I suddenly perked up and pulled out my voice recorder.
Noah’s angry shouting could be heard in the background:[]
You psycho! If you don’t properly apologize to Olivia, I’ll fucking kill you…“[]
You
Elijah’s eyes lit up even more.
He smiled and nodded.[]
“That’s it. Under the Violence Against Women Act, verbal abuse and threats between intimate partners also constitute domestic violence.“[]

As soon as Olivia got out, she couldn’t wait to find me and was waiting for me downstairs at
my
company.
“How’s it feel? Are you pissed off? Not only am I fine, but I made Noah care about me even more.“]
“Good for you. Keep gloating.”
I turned to go into the building.
- me.
Olivia was stopped by security but kept yelling at me.
“Hey, doesn’t your company do background checks on employees?“]
“Do you know what she did? She’s a total slut who likes gangbangs…”
Security looked at her like she was insane.]
Then they escorted her to the police station.[]
Since she’d just been released and was causing trouble again, this wasn’t just a fine anymore.[]
She got locked up for seven days.[]
Hearing this news really improved my mood.]
That night, I was eating ice cream in my house when someone started pounding on the door.
Through the video doorbell, I saw Noah.
“What’s your problem? What gives you the right to kick me out?“]
I yanked the door open.
Noah stumbled and almost fell.]
He steadied himself and snarled at me:
Causby Mi… C.

Chapter 7
“What’s with your attitude? Keep this up and we’re breaking up.“[]
I thought I’d misheard him.[]
“Didn’t we already break up?“]]
“That was just heat–of–the–moment talk. I had to say that or Liam wouldn’t have gotten over it.“]]
Noah acted like nothing had happened and walked into the house.[]
This penthouse was worth over $12 million – my mother had left it to me.
Noah knew the market value, so he couldn’t bring himself to actually break up with me over this property.]
Olivia was just someone his dick wanted – with me, it was purely about the money.
Noah’s tone softened:[]
“Look, I’ll stay away from Olivia from now on, okay?“[]
“She came onto me that day, and I’d had a few drinks. I couldn’t resist… but I swear it was just that one time.“[]
I stared at him expressionlessly.[]
Then I opened Olivia’s social media to show him.[]
First, she’d exaggerated the story about me deliberately trying to break up her and Liam, then she’d posted screenshots from the fake gangbang video Noah had created.
All the body parts were censored, but she deliberately left my face visible.
Anyone could see how intense the action looked.[]
Noah’s group of toxic friends already resented me because of the birthday incident.
Now they swarmed like flies to shit, filled with righteous indignation and condemning me for being promiscuous.
They even shared it on more platforms – Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram.
This immediately sparked online controversy.
People who didn’t know the truth were attacking me left and right.[]
People who recognized me sent messages asking for the truth.[]
“What’s going on? Did you piss someone off?“]
I gripped my phone tightly, staring daggers at Noah.[]
Noah’s expression kept changing, his breathing becoming rapid.]
He knew damn well that video was fake.[]
With friends like these, who needs enemies?
Originally, only a few people knew about it, but now that it was spreading online, it was a completely different situation.]
The distribution was so widespread that it now constituted a crime.]
