Still, it was late-if Elsa was calling him now, it had to be something urgent. He answered anyway.

“Elsa, what’s wrong?”

John…”

Elsa’s voice was thick with helplessness and panic. “I just got home from the hospital. After I got into the neighborhood, a man started following me. I’m alone at home now, and I’m really scared. John, what should I do?”

Tomorrow, he and Lily were supposed to go register their marriage, They’d have to take a photo for the certificate, and he wanted to look decent.

He had hoped to go to bed early tonight..

It was already late, and he really didn’t want to go out.

But if he didn’t, Elsa might get overwhelmed with fear-or worse, something might happen to her. After a moment of silence, he said, “Don’t be afraid. I’ll come over now.”

Tonight, trending alongside the full video of Lily slapping Mathilda was another clip-posted by Nancy.

Sixteen years ago, when Nancy had gone to the orphanage to adopt Lily, her assistant had taken a short video of her interaction with Lily.

In the video, she held Lily’s soft, chubby little hand, her face glowing with tenderness. Lily, I’ve already asked Ji Bai to handle the adoption paperwork. From now on, you’re my daughter:

Six-year-old Lily was sweet and adorable beyond words.

The more Nancy looked at her, the more she liked her. She couldn’t help but pull her into a hug. “I finally have a daughter. I’m so happy!

Blanc was famously obsessed with his wife.

He knew childbirth was dangerous-like stepping through the gates of death.

Even though the Luke family was wealthy and powerful, and he had hired the very best OB-GYN for Nancy, he still hated the idea of her risking her life repeatedly.

But Nancy had always wanted a daughter. He couldn’t say no. That’s how they ended up with three sons in

When she was giving birth to their third son, Ivan, she fell and nearly died. Blanc was terrified. No matter how much she begged after that, he refused to let her get pregnant again.

But Nancy still longed for a daughter. In the end, she chose to adopt one from an orphanage.

At that orphanage, she spotted Lily at first glance. Once she picked her up, she couldn’t help but stroke her soft little face.

“Lily, you’re so adorable. Raising a daughter is way more fun than raising those smelly boys. I’m going to buy you the prettiest princess dresses, diamonds, gold… I’ll dress up my little Princess Lily every single day!”

“Nancy…”

In the video, after hugging Lily for a while, Nancy pulled out a diamond hairclip she had prepared in advance and clipped it into Lily’s hair.

As she was ridying Lily’s hair, a sobbing Luna suddenly appeared and stood in front of her.

“I really like Lily too… Mathilda is gone. I might never see her again. I really want a daughter… Nancy, I’m begging you-please let me adopt Lily instead?”

The video ended with Nancy giving in and agreeing to let Luna adopt her.

-After posting the clip, Nancy also released a statement on her personal account

“There was never a case of someone stealing another’s child. Lily’s biological parents were extremely upright and accomplished artists. They never switched anyone’s children. Mathilda’s disappearance at age six had nothing to do with Lily. Lily never stole Mathilda’s life. After Lily’s parents passed away. I was going to adopt her. But my college roommate Luna got down on her knees and begged me, saying she felt a connection with Lily. Out of pity, I softened and gave her up. I believe if I had adopted Lily, she would’ve had a far better life than the one she got with the Ginger family. After their real daughter came back, the Ginger family cut ties with Lily completely. The money they spent on her over the years-she’s already paid back double. Lily owes nothing to that cold and selfish family, and even less to Mathilda! Mathilda being kidnapped was a tragedy But if she wants to blame someone, blame the traffickers, blame the buyers, blame the parems who lost her-not Lily. What she’s doing now is bullying the weak, twisting the truth, and slandering an innocent person. She’s sick.”

Nancy’s public statement left no room for Mathilda, Luna, and the others to save face.

Her words completely threw Mathilda into the center of a storm.

Mathilda was still live streaming.

She had built a decent name for herself in the voiceover community.

Her second eldest brother was currently one of the most in-demand A-list actors.

Thanks to Taylor’s fame and her carefully crafted image had just over 700,000 followers on short video platforms.

+10 Fire Cons the beloved heiress of a wealthy family, she

And today, after Lily was publicly condemned as a bully, countless strangers felt sorry for her. In less than a day. Mathilda gained more than 500,000 followers.

That night, as she went live, her viewer count never dropped below 100,000-at its peak, it even surpassed a million.

Donations flooded in..

One fan alone gave her nearly tens of thousands in tips that night.

It was the busiest her livestream had ever been.

The constant stream of gifts made her heart soar.

With this rare boost in attention, she was determined to stay online for as long as she could. Every second she lived was money.

“I just feel so bad for Mathilda. She should’ve grown up in luxury as a noble heiress, but she suffered so much because of Lily’s family. I just want to give her a hug.

“Same here! Lily not only stole her life but bullied her too. Mathilda finally got back with her family, and Lily still tormented her. She’s honestly beyond cruel.”

“I’m sending a rocket for the sweetest Mathilda!”

“Come on, everyone! Let’s protect the best girl in the world-Mathilda!”

“Thank you, everyone.”

Her chat was basically flooded with gifts.

Seeing everyone pitying her and cursing Lily without restraint, Mathilda almost couldn’t stop the smile tugging at the corners of her lips.

But she was used to wearing the mask of the kind, innocent girl. With tears brimining in her eyes, she still defended Lily on camera,

“I know everyone’s worried about me, but I really hope you all stop attacking Lily. She did steal my life. She did bully me. I went through a lot because of her-beatings, hunger, the cold. But… I still treat her as my sister. I still want her to be happy.Please, I’m asking all of you-stop blaming Lily.”

Mathilda was a talented performer

As she spoke, her eyes shimmered with tears. She bowed deeply, looking genuinely emotional, like she actually cared about Lily.

She thought that by defending Lily, her audience would praise her even more for being kind and then unleash their rage at Lily even harder.

What she didn’t expect… was for the tone in her chat to start shifting.

“Guys, did you see the video circulating online?”

“Mathilda kept saying Lily bullied her but in the video, it’s her leading a group to bully Lily?”

“Honestly, I think Lily slapping her was totally justified.”

“She literally stepped on Lily’s face. A slap was the least she deserved!”

“If anyone ever stepped on my face, I’d tear them apart. Lily went easy on her!”

“Madam Nancy also released a statement! Turns out, Lily didn’t steal anyone’s life. The Ginger family lost their own daughter and tried to fill the hole in their hearts by forcefully taking Lily from Madam Nancy!”

“If the Ginger family hadn’t been so shameless, Lily would be living like a true heiress right now.”

“Why are people blaming Lily? It’s the Ginger family who ruined her shot at a privileged life!” “Mathilda is such a manipulative liar. Disgusting”

Almost in sync, her livestream viewers began turning on her.

The chat was now flooded with comments calling her a liar, fake, and a phony.

Some even said they felt scammed and demanded their money back.

Mathilda was stunned.

She couldn’t wrap her head around how the same fans who were just adoring her, ready to crown her a queen, had now turned around to tear her down.

Hearing everyone mention “videgs, she quickly grabbed another phone to check.

And soon, she found them-two separate clips.

The first clearly showed that Lily wasn’t the bully-she was defending herself.

The second was even more brutal. Nancy crushed both Mathilda and Luna’s reputations without the rese

The comment sections were brutal. Netizens felt deceived and were ripping her apart.

Everyone felt bad for Lily.
