Chapter 8
Haley was stunned. She screamed and shouted behind me, “You’re extorting me! Seven million dollars for just a few outfits? You can’t bully me just because you’re Thomas Siegel’s wife. I won’t let this slide-”
I had no interest in listening to her nonsense. I got into my car and left without another word.
That evening, however, a video of the incident went viral online.
Haley had conveniently edited out the part where I said she hit me. The footage only showed her accusing Thomas of assault and me threatening her to repay the debt.
She followed up with another video, where she played the victim. “I can’t take this anymore. The powerful are terrifying. With just one word, they can crush the lives of ordinary people like me… Thomas Siegel’s wife has been trying to ruin my life, all because he looked my way that one time!
“What am I supposed to do? Pleasene help me…”
Her story was riddled with contradictions and full of plotholes.
Still, the mention of the Siegel family in her video immediately caused a massive uproar online. People began debating the situation, and Haley shamelessly took advantage of the online attention. She put on live streams where she tearfully recounted her sob story. Shockingly, she even received a substantial amount of donations.
I found it all laughable. Just as I was about to contact my lawyer to take action against Haley, Joel beat me to it.
He reached out to a reputable media platform and revealed the full story of his relationship with Haley. Alongside this, he dug up evidence of her past affairs with wealthy men and her history as a mistress.
Through gritted teeth, Joel said, “Haley Stockwell is a fraud. She acted all sweet and innocent with me, but in reality, she was a vicious and depraved woman. Out of jealousy, she even attacked the wife of my employer, nearly disfiguring her!”
He continued, “After being exposed, she didn’t reflect on her actio
Instead, she harassed me at my home and
workplace with her gang. I must’ve been blind to agree to marry her in the first place.
“I’ve already filed a police report and turned in all the evidence. I believe justice will be served, and she’ll face the consequences of her actions.”
The interview flipped the narrative entirely.
Before I could take any action, netizens had already dug into Haley’s history. They exposed all her lies.
In the process, her friends‘ scandals were also brought to light. Their entire social circle experienced a fall from grace. Now, they were labeled as opportunistic women who climbed their way up through questionable means. Overnight, they became the internet’s most hated group.
One of Haley’s closest lackeys, who was already engaged and planning her wedding, had her engagement called off because of the exposé. Devastated, she went to Haley, begging her to explain the situation and clear her name.
