“I’ve never seen someone so shameless before!”
“Shameless people go well together!”
Those sycophants who had been fawning over Antonio quickly switched sides. joining in the criticism of Sophia and him.
Antonio was mad and embarrassed. “Grace, do you have to make me look bad? How is Leah supposed to face people after this?”
Sophia seemed to figure things out and started crying, playing the victim.
“I’m to blame. I asked Antonio to help because Jacob never had a dad. I just wanted Antonio to pretend to be his dad for one day, but….
“It’s all our fault. We’re the ones left behind!”
After saying that, she dropped to her knees in front of me and began to slap herself hard.
Antonio and Jacob hurried to stop her, and Antonio glared at me,
glared at me, his eyes red and angry.
“Do you have to push Sophia to the edge?”
Some people always acted weak to get sympathy.
After Sophia’s act, some actually started to feel bad for her.
“Alas, she’s just a poor mother wanting to give her son a perfect fifth birthday.”
“This is about using power to bully a single mother and her son!”
I stepped forward, looking at Sophia with an amused expression.
“Was it really just about helping out?”
Sophia froze. Without giving her a chance to react, I had Luke reveal an investigation report.
The crowd erupted in shock.
When Sophia had her baby. Antonio was right there with her the whole time, as evidenced by the hospital’s records and archives.
