"However, these matters were all covered up by the Booth family with money. Those innocent students still haven''t gotten any closure. Now, she colluded with Neville to smear McDaniels reputation online, ndering the Mcdaniel family for abandoning their bloodline, and then deliberately killed Mr. Will by orchestrating the truck ident."


    "The vicious things done by her were innumerable.


    The evidence shared by Archer was clear and organized.


    There was no chance for Karen to defend herself.


    After theizens in the live stream realized that they had been misled by Karen, they were very especially furious.


    [What''s wrong with this woman?]


    [If she wasn''t sick, she wouldn''t have dared to spread rumors that the Mcdaniel family abandoned and murdered a child! I must be out of my mind to believe her!]


    [She''s a lunatic who bullies her ssmates since she was young. When she goes crazy, she acts unreasonably. She can''t be trusted at all. She''s ying tricks on us like we''re her puppets!]


    I finally understand. This woman ns to frame the Mcdaniel family and ruin their reputation.]


    [Where is Neville? Don''t he ever fucking think that he can go missing in action now. He''s a bastard. How could he ki child?]


    only were theizens angry, but the police officers were furious too!


    It turned out that the whole incident was directed and executed by Karen. She swayed public opinion online and used police''s credibility to persecute the Mcdaniel family and destroy their reputation! With concrete evidence, the police could immediately take Karen in their custody for interrogation.


    Karen''s legs were trembling. She pushed away the approaching police officer forcefully and identally fell next to Byron


    She could not care less. She grabbed his pants and begged for mercy. "Byron, save me! For my father''s sake, save me! I didn''t do it on purpose. It''s all Neville''s idea. He forced me to do so!" "He locked me in an iron cage and forced me to help him destroy you and the Mcdaniel family. Only then would he let me go. I... I had no choice!"


    There was no warmth in Byron''s dark eyes


    He looked at Karen and said coldly, "Let go."


    Karen''s back stiffened, and she subconsciously let go.


    Byron did not look at Karen anymore, as if she would contaminate his eyes if he gave her another look. He held Theo, who was secretly licking a lollipop in his hand and walked out. Karen''s eyes were lifeless as she tried to support herself by leaning against the floor. Her mind went nk.


    She was finished.


    In the past, she had tried her best to hide her dirtyundry. Now everyone knew about what she had done. Her reputation was ruined.


    It was worse than deatht


    If she had known


    If she had known earlier, she would rather be locked in an iron cage than to go against Byron!


    Unfortunately, it was toote.


    Karen was taken away by the police. Peace and silence were restored in the living room of the Medaniel residence.


    However, the matter had be a trendy topic on the interne


    Thanks to the live broadcast from Karen''s brooch camera, the Mcdaniel family did not need to spend extra efforts rifying the matter. Everything has been revealed to the public.

    Theizens, who had been tricked by the lunatic, felt hurt and angry.


    Initially, they thought that they were just watching a juicy gossip. They did not expect that they were turned into idiot audiences.


    They were really unhappy about that.Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Theizens did not hold back their anger. They investigated Karen''s family background and joined forces to boycott all businesses owned by the Booth Group.


    It was thest straw. The Mcdaniel family did not need to do anything as otherpanies started to attack the Booth Group in order to please them.


    In less than half a day, the business of the Booth Group plummeted.


    Outside the Mcdaniel residence.


    Maeve stood still and stared at the door in a daze as if she hadst her soul.


    After an unknown period of time, a soft little hand grabbed the hem of her shirt and shook it gently.


    "Mom."


    Maeve''s dark eyes gradually lit up after hearing the soft voice. She looked down.


    It was a very magical moment.


    Ever since she reunited with Will, Maeve had always been able to differentiate him from Theo with just a nce.


    It was no exception now.


    Maeve was in disbelief at first. Then, she hugged Will ecstatically. Her heart, which had been hollowed out, gradually warmed up.


    "Will... Will..." she muttered as she could not stop herself from sobbing.


    While Will was initially very happy, he suddenly became flustered after seeing his mother''s reaction. He hurriedly patted Maeve''s back tofort her. "Mom, please don''t cry. I''m back. Mom, don''t please cry."


    He suddenly realized that his mother might have seen the fake news online.


    Will bit his lip in frustration. If he had known that it would make his mother cry, he would rather not release the news event


    if he would not find out who the mastermind was.


    No one was more important than his mother..


    "Mom, I''m sorry." Will hugged Maeve tightly. Tve made you worry. It''s all my fault. Please don''t cry. I feel terrible when you cry."


    Hearing his son''sforting voice, Maeve felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.


    When she saw the news, she thought that the world had copsed and ended.


    Now that she was hugging Will, everything finally felt real.


    "Mommy, please don''t cry. I felt bad making you cry? Maeve kissed him on the head, "Did those people hurt you?"


    Will shook his head. "No. Dad sent someone to protect me. I wasn''t hurt in any way


    "Byron? Maeve''s eyes were filled with surprise with Will''s reply.


    "How were you kidnapped?"


    Will hesitated for a moment. "Mom, don''t be angry. I went along the kidnappers'' n on purpose."


    "What?"


    Will told Maeve about all the kidnapping incidents that he had experienced since he was young. They included but were not limited to times when he had bodyguards protecting him. Even with high levels of protection, someone would still find the chances.


    He suspected that someone from the Mcdaniel family was attacking him.


    His father thought the same too.


    However,pared to luring the mastermind step by step gradually, Will wanted to capture the mastermind with one strike. So, he did not hesitate to take the risk.


    Even though Will acted daringly because he had protection from his bodyguards, Maeve still felt angry and ufortable, However, Will had just escaped danger. She could not bear to punish him. So, she could only let go of her tears.


    Will hurriedly wiped her tears. "Mom, Mom, I promise I won''t do this again. Please don''t cry! I swear to God! If I do this again, I''ll get severe punishment like having my yoga mats and books thrown away!"


    If he had known that it would make Maeve so sad, he would have used other methods.


    Will''s heart ached. He felt like crying for some reason.


    He did not know,


    He did not know he was that important too.


    At the Mcdaniel residence.


    After leaving the living room, Byron instructed the servants to send Theo upstairs to rest. He went straight to Jason''s study.


    The father and son pair looked at each other in silence. The atmosphere became more and more solemn


    "Will was kidnapped by you." Byron''s tone was unusually cold. "Neville is just a pawn. The real mastermind who nned all this was you."
