Chapter 8
How did it end up like this?
Bernadette just couldn’t believe it, she watched all the events from start to finish.
After she posted on Twitter yesterday, netizens immediately noticed something was off.
“Didn’t expect Svola Studio to be so awesome, no need to copy then.”
“Arcobaleno Studio was a newly established company, so how could it step on Svola Studio to get chosen by the Crowley Group? It was really strange.”
Right after that, some netizens started digging and found photos of Jessica and Nolan together, even photos of Bernadette and Nolan at the courthouse getting divorced, and photos of Jessica and Nolan at the obstetrics and gynecology department.
During a time Bernadette didn’t know about, public opinion turned upside down.

Bernadette didn’t expect it to set off this kind of chain reaction, but by the time things got to this point, it didn’t really have much to do with her
anymore.
She got in touch with the moving company and went back to the Çolfield’s villa to pack her stuff.
Who knew, as soon as I opened the door, I saw Nolan standing in the living room, frowning.

At this point, there wasn’t much left to say between them.
Bernadette wanted to ignore him and pack her things. As soon as she walked in, she heard Nolan ask, “Why did you have to drag Jessica into our business?”
Bernadette paused, just feeling it was ridiculous: “Wasn’t she just asking for it herself?”
Jessica was a homewrecker herself, so what did it have to do with her if people looked down on her?
“She was still pregnant, you know how much she suffered for this?”
Nolan looked totally confused, “How did you get so cold–blooded?”
Bernadette froze.

She took a deep breath, pushed down the pain inside, and said in a low voice, “You’re the one who changed.”
Indifference and cheating, the one who broke all the beautiful illusions was never her
The two left on bad terms

The next day, Bernadette went to the Crowley Group to deliver the manuscript.
Who knew, as soon as I got out of the elevator, I ran right into Jessica.
She blocked Bernadette with her tear–stained eyes: “Are you happy now?”
Bernadette didn’t want to get involved with her, but Jessica grabbed her arm and said fiercely, “Bernadette, I won’t let you get away with this.”

Bernadette didn’t react, and her hand got pushed by Jessica,
In an instant, there was a scream, “Ah—“, and Jessica fell straight to the ground following her hand!
Jessica started wailing, “My stomach hurts…”
In an instant, everyone’s eyes turned this way.
Nolan rushed over quickly.
Jessica saw him and felt even more sorry: “I just said a few words, then she pushed me, Nolan my stomach really hurt…”
“It was her putting on a show herself…” Bernadette explained right away.
“That’s enough!”

Nolan cut her off coldly, looking at her with disgust: “You just had to mess with her, didn’t you?”
Bernadette froze on the spot.

Her throat felt like it was being choked, and she just stared blankly as Nolan picked up Jessica and ran downstairs.
Everyone’s eyes were on her.
Confused, contemptuous… it was like a silent curse, even making her, the one involved, wonder if she was really that unforgivable.
Bernadette put out the article and left in a hurry.
Who knew, as soon as she walked out of the building, a bunch of reporters rushed over like crazy and surrounded her completely.

“Ms. Connery, did you push Jessica because you were jealous?”
“Ms. Connery, there were rumors that you hired trolls to smear Jessica…”
was a buzzing in Bernadette’s ears. She lowered her head, wanting to leave, but suddenly a voice came from the crowd: “Jessica started streaming!”
Bernadette froze for a second, and someone next to her immediately pulled out their phone.
On the livestream screen, Jessica was sitting on the hospital bed in a patient gown, looking pale and pitiful.
Her eyes were red as she showed the camera the photo of Bernadette pushing her today.
“Bernadette, I knew you hated me for taking Nolan, but the kid was innocent. Did you know that when you pushed me today, you almost hurt a little life? You were really too vicious!”
She said it, and it seemed like she couldn’t take the hurt anymore, so she
ted to cry.
Bernadette looked at the screen. The angle of that photo was really weird, and it didn’t show Jessica grabbing her hand at all.
It was like the camera had already been set up in advance.
The reporters nearby all looked sympathetic, and the cameras were almost right in Bernadette’s face.

Bernadette snapped to attention and saw Jessica say firmly.
“Wasn’t it you who cheated with Nolan’s brother Declan first?!”
