“I’ll make them take it all back and set the record straight. We can still salvage this.“[]
“You think there’s enough time?“]
I gave him a mocking smile. “In the digital age, your damage control can’t keep up with the speed of the internet.“[]
Noah left with a final “I’ll make this right, just don’t call the cops.“[]
Later I found out he went to see Olivia.[]
They had a huge fight.]]
But then somehow made up afterward.[]
To appease me, Noah voluntarily paid me some money.
Not much – just $30,000.
Barely enough to cover a few years‘ rent.[]
I wasn’t in a rush to call the police.
Instead, I collected all the evidence and waited for the right moment to deal with everything at once.[]
Later, the private investigator I hired told me they’d gone to the hospital for an amniocentesis.[]
The results showed that the baby in Olivia’s belly was Noah’s.
Half a month later, my lawyer sent me a message.]]
“The lawsuit has been filed. Noah will receive the subpoena in a few days.”
“Good. Thanks for your hard work.“[]
This investigation revealed that Noah had been pulling a lot of shady moves behind the scenes.
Six months ago, when the gym was expanding, Noah had taken out a $750,000 loan in my
name.
Because he could forge my handwriting, the loan was still under my name.[]
Looking at the paperwork, I was furious.]
Not only that, but over the past six months, large amounts of money from the gym had been flowing
And as the majority shareholder, I hadn’t received a penny while taking on significant debt.[]

Each charge was enough to send him to prison.
Three days later, I arrived at the gym with Elijah in tow.
Olivia was acting like she owned the place, giving me the stink eye.
“What are you doing here? You’re not welcome.“]

“Who do you think you are? Acting like you’re Mrs. Whitaker or something.“[]
I mocked her sarcastically.[]
Olivia proudly stuck out her slightly rounded belly, raising her eyebrows at me in challenge.[]
She thought she had won.
But she was getting greedy – even at this point, she still wouldn’t break up with Liam.[]
Liam might not have much money, but he was generous with Olivia.
After covering his basic expenses, he transferred his entire paycheck to Olivia.[]
So even now, Olivia was still bleeding that sucker dry.[]
Liam had been on a business trip recently, so she and Noah were openly hooking up without

“What are you doing here? Didn’t I say I’d make things right? Besides, Olivia already deleted the posts. Why do you have to be so aggressive?”
Elijah and I exchanged glances, and he understood immediately, stepping forward.
“Sir, I am Elijah Thorne, legal counsel for Ms. Charlotte Vance. I will be representing her in all legal proceedings moving forward.“]
“Proceeding?” Olivia looked annoyed. “We were just joking around last time. I deleted the posts, didn’t I?“]
