Chapter 60
After Christopher posted his statement, another wave of insults was hurled toward Skylar
The hottest response was the one that suggested Skylar be admitted to an asylurn.
There were even some invited professionals who labeled her as delusional. They claimed that Skylar was too in love with her boyfriend that the appearance of another woman by his side became an imaginary threat to her. They asserted that she really needed psychological help in such a situation.
These people practically appeared the moment Christopher posted his statement.
It became the biggest trending topic on the Internet.
Joe was in the car, swiping on his phone.
Although the driver was driving, he could feel the tension in the air. He didn’t even dare to breathe too loudly.
Paul got into the car mid–journey. He could tell Joe was on edge the moment he got into the car.
He glanced over, and his eyes landed on the page on Joe’s phone screen.
Being sharp–witted, he said, “Mr. Martin, I noticed a lot of those so–called ‘professionals‘ spreading lies on the internet. They’re really stirring up my sense of justice. I found people to expose these professionals. I couldn’t bear to see the public being deceived.
“The companies they partnered with will be able to give their statement in less than an hour. They won’t be able to spew rubbish in the future.”
What did those idiots know? They accepted money from the Williams family to talk bullshit.
Joe turned off the display on his phone. Then, he rolled down the window and lit a cigarette.
He felt like he had been paying too much attention to Skylar’s issue. He shouldn’t do anything to make her have unnecessary misconceptions or uncertainty. This matter…
After a few thoughtful minutes, he spoke to Paul with a dark expression on his face. “No need for any drastic actions. Just make sure the rumors on the internet die down. That’ll do.” T
Paul was stunned to hear his instructions. Was Joe changing his mind about helping Skylar?
After leaving Galaxy Villa, Skylar informed Daniel that she’d arrive a little later.
After that, she drove to the police station where she had made a police report the previous time.
She received many WhatsApp messages and phone calls along the way. She saw the screenshot from Natalie. It was Christopher’s statement on social media.

His statement asserted that she was always a jealous person. She assumed that he was having affairs with all the women who appeared by his side.
He even said that Maisy was a victim who was dragged into this. On her behalf, he apologized to Mainy
and those she had hurt.
“Christopher is such a jerk! He has no conscience at all. I’ve updated my Facebook post earlier. I’ll vouch for you, Skye.” Natalie was mad.
She was disgusted by Christopher’s actions first thing in the morning.
Even though Skylar had mentally prepared herself, her chest still tightened when she saw Christopher’s
statement.
She took a deep breath. The look in her eyes was glum. She first thanked Natalie for helping her, then told her she was on the way to the police station. Afterward, she hung up.
As she was about to continue driving, Sadie called. Her tone wasn’t as arrogant as before.
“I’m sure that you’ve been through a lot. It’s all your boyfriend’s fault. He was the one who caused all this. Maisy is completely innocent. You can’t blame her.
“Now that it has all come to this, you should just apologize. Once you’ve posted your apology, we’ll find at way to let this trending topic die down. Then, we’ll send you overseas to study.
“Once you’ve had the experience of studying abroad, your father will arrange a position for you in the company after you return.
“We’ll also arrange a good marriage for you. Even though you might be at a loss right now, you won’t actually be on the losing end here.”
Skylar was amused. She burst out laughing.
“What are you laughing at?”
Skylar suppressed her laugh. “I’m laughing at how crazy you people are, fantasizing like that.”
“How rude, Skye! Who taught you to speak to me like that? I’m your mother!” Sadie said angrily.
Skylar argued with them time and time again. She even spoke so rudely to infuriate her. Wasn’t she afraid that their family would disown her?
Skylar tapped on the steering wheel lightly. “Maisy was the one who went overboard. You’re the one who couldn’t see right from wrong, Mrs, Williams.
“There’s no sign of any decent upbringing on any of you people in the Williams family. Do you think that you deserve to say that I was being rude?
“Tell Maisy that she has gone over the line. I’d like to see how she handles it when she ends up shooting herself in her own foot.” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
