As the stream ended, Elsie gave her a thumbs-up.
“That was a powerful performance. I think the online discussions are going to be great today. I’ve been
telling you not to let Sierra take the spotlight and to clarify the truth online, giving her a good one-two.”
“I’ve been simmering with Sierra from the start. The war in the comments would only continue. Might as
well do nothing and let Sierra do what she wants stomping my name into the dirt before unleashing a
counterattack in the last stage. The war for approval isn’t any trouble. Besides, the incident was only
exposed yesterday. I just wanted to see Sierra’s reaction, but she’s still trying to start nonsense online.
Does she really think I’m going to stay silent? I think she has other plans up her sleeve now.
“Elsie, for these few days, no matter who it is, don’t let Annie out the doors. I’ll try not to go out for
anything these few days as well. I’ve already called for a half at work. Before Sierra is taken care of,
don’t leave, I’ll take care of you. At a time like this, Sierra and the person behind her must be trying to
go for one last big gamble. I don’t even have to think to picture that they would try to kidnap people
close to me, then try to issue threats. We’ll take it slow right now. Nothing wrong with staying at home.”
“Don’t worry, I’m not the type of person that absolutely has to go outside. Even if I’m going out to buy
something, I’ll take at least ten bodyguards with me. I don’t believe that in such a scenario, Sierra can
still catch us and use us to threaten you.”
Georgia’s side was relaxing, while the internet had exploded.
“Georgia actually had a certificate! You could verify these things if you just checked. I don’t think she’d
lie about that. Holy shit, what’s going on? Why is Georgia the one who’s married to Robert? What
about Sierra, then? Is she just some joke?”
“I thought Georgia was just a devious bitch trying to force her way into the inheritance, but she’s
Robert’s actual wife?”
“Wow, I feel like an idiot. I even laughed at Georgia for not getting a cent of the inheritance. Turns out
she’s Robert’s wife and a billionaire at that.”
“I’m getting more and more confused. As someone without a stance, can someone tell me if Robert is
married to Sierra or Georgia? I don’t get it. Can someone summarize the events for me?”
“Has anyone gotten Sierra to stream to and tell everyone if she’s married to Robert or not? She’s kept
silent all this while, does she think she’s been beaten by Georgia already?”
As the internet voiced their doubts, there came no further word from Sierra’s side.
Everyone had begun to believe that Sierra’s stream was telling the truth.
That made all the comments from before one great big joke.
Everyone reacted to the fact that the comments had been guided by Sierra’s side.
That’s why they’d painted a target on Georgia and flamed her for being so shameless as to steal
someone else’s husband’s inheritance.
Now everyone felt lied to.
And they turned their barrels on Sierra.
Of course, more people also crowded Anaya’s account and asked if she really was Robert’s cousin.
Or if this cousin simply didn’t know enough about Robert as to answer something as simple as who his
real wife was.
All sorts of flaming comments spread out under Anaya’s account. As for Sierra, an even greater
discussion sprang up around her.
#SierraMoonHasNoShame#
Everyone mocked Sierra for pretending to be Robert’s face and finally getting exposed.
Now, everyone was fantasizing about Sierra getting the boot instead.
That was how the internet went. Even if they’d supported Sierra before, most people turned around to
mock her now.
The comments changed in an instant.
Then Riley, who’d stated support for Georgia before, spoke up online again, which entertained the
internet some more.
“I very much hope Miss Sierra Moon enjoys prison cuisine from now on.”
A lot was being implied with that statement, and the internet was already speculating.
What crime had Sierra committed? To have Riley speak up like this.
Of course, Georgia hadn’t guessed that even Riley had joined in on the debacle.
The two hadn’t been in contact since Robert’s incident.
They weren’t that close, and Georgia couldn’t have had Riley over. She was too busy with too many
things.
As she pondered that, Georgia received a call from Robert.
She hurried to the bathroom and shut the door before taking the call in secret.
“How is everything? Where are you? Are you safe?”
The moment they connected, Georgia asked concernedly.
“I’m secluded away and no one’s going to find me. I’ve set a trap for Sierra and I’m just waiting to hook
whoever’s behind her. Don’t leave the house for these few days, Georgia. Stay with Annie at home.
Protect yourself. When this is all over, I’ll come back to you and Annie.”
“Is your plan safe?”
Georgia didn’t want Robert to put himself in danger.
“I’ve made sufficient preparations. No need to worry. Just wait at home for me. I’ll be back on time.”
Hearing Robert say that, Georgia felt her heart ache.
“Keep that promise, or I won’t forgive you.”
The two fell silent over the line as the atmosphere got heavy out of nowhere.
“Is your mother and Wesley over with you? Are they in a safe place?”
Georgia changed the topic. She didn’t know everything about Robert’s plan, and could only guess at
things with what little she could grasp.
She’d wanted to be involved, too, but Robert had continually refused.
He wanted to resolve it all personally without Georgia getting mixed up, or bringing her and Annie any
danger.
“My mother is fine, and Wesley’s close to me. If you can’t contact me for a time, go find Ivan. He’ll keep
you and Annie safe. If Sierra says something like she’s captured my mother or Wesley or has found
that I’m still alive and captured me, don’t believe it. I’ve got a grasp of Sierra’s personality now. She’s
cunning. Without my confirmation, don’t believe a word of what she says.”
“I understand that much. When will it be over for you? Annie’s emotions have settled, but she still cries
when she dreams about you at night. If you came back, Annie would be overjoyed.”
“It should take less than a month for me to deal with this.”
To be honest, Robert felt like three days were enough.
But unexpected things always happened, so he’d deliberately stretched it out a bit.
The two hung up, and Georgia washed her face, dabbing at her eyes with a hot towel.
She didn’t want Annie or Elsie to see her slightly swollen eyes, or to let them see her mood.
After settling her emotions, Georgia left the washroom and went downstairs, getting ready to make
Annie some food.
But she got a strange number.
Georgia took the call.
“Who is this?”
An unexpected voice came over the phone.
“I can’t reach Sierra’s number, Georgia, and she’s blacklisted me. I want to make it clear. Are you really
married to Robert?”
It was Anaya’s voice. Georgia knew about what had happened over the internet, but she didn’t think
Anaya would call her.
The two had never had the best of relationships, and Georgia’s reply was cold.
“If you think my certificate is fake, you can have your connections ask where it was registered. If you
find it’s fake, you can show everyone on the internet. I don’t mind.”
That attitude riled Anaya up even more.
“You think you’re hot stuff for marrying my cousin? You’re just a widow now!”
