Tessa was actually the one responsible for the hit–and–run that happened five months ago. The news quickly made its way to major trending platforms.

Tessa’s fans flooded the comment sections under the trending topics, insisting that she could never do something like that.

It wasn’t until the police issued an official statement confirming that Tessa was indeed the perpetrator of the hit–and–run that occurred five months ago that her fans were proven wrong.

Curious onlookers, seeing several similar search terms dominating the trending list, clicked on them to learn more. After reading the full story, they couldn’t help but lash out.

[Isn’t this just like causing an accident, running away, and making someone else take the fall? The so–called top dancer is nothing but a murderer!]

[Earlier, it was said that her sister was the real murderer–who would have thought the truth would come out so quickly?]

[Poor Xylia, she shouldered it all.]

[The Jupiton police are amazing. They pursue the truth and clear the names of the wronged.]

[This isn’t just about a hit–and–run. There’s also the crime of framing and slander. As the top dancer, she made her sister take the blame. So shameless.]

[Tessa, apologize!]

[Tessa, apologize!]

The platform was flooded with abusive comments towards Tessa.

The event Connor feared the most had finally come to pass. Tessa’s career was completely ruined.

He sat dejectedly on the stool in his study, head down, face buried in his hands, lost in thought.

Suddenly, he realized that the ultimate beneficiary of this matter was Xylia. It must have been Xylia who found the third–party witness and exposed the truth behind everything.

He immediately took out his phone and called Xylia. “Sorry, the number you dialed is no longer in service.”

Hearing this, Connor was so furious that he nearly threw his phone. She had blocked him again.

He borrowed the butler’s phone and called Xylia again. On the other end, it was the same familiar voice.

He borrowed several more bodyguards‘ phones, calling her from numbers she had never saved, knowing that with her personality, she would answer.

However, the phone hadn’t rung yet, and again, it was the same female voice on the other end, mechanically

repeating the same words.

It was only then that Connor realized Xylia had changed her phone number. A chill ran down his spine, and panic began to rise in his chest.

‘Why did she change her number? Could it be that she really won’t contact me again? Impossible! Xylia loves me so much. There’s no way she could truly sever ties with me,’ he thought.

He called his assistant and said, “Find out where Xylia is.”

The assistant paused for two seconds before answering. “Mr. Ford, she left yesterday. I saw her at the airport with the driver from the Garcia family.”

“Joshua!” Connor gritted his teeth. “Find out which flight they took.”

“Got it. But, Mr. Ford, the hit–and–run incident involving Ms. Schultz is still affecting Ford Group. Should we delete the comments or take another approach?” his assistant asked.

Connor didn’t immediately understand what his assistant meant. He couldn’t grasp how Tessa’s situation could affect the company.

The assistant diligently compiled all the online news and sent it to Connor. Connor scrolled through it and quickly realized that the internet had already linked him to Tessa.

The incident with Tessa twisting her ankle at the designer exchange event. The high school bullying incident involving Xylia at the kindergarten anniversary celebration. The three of them had appeared on trending searches many times.

So now, when Tessa got into trouble, he was also exposed for perjury.

[My god, to help his sister–in–law escape, he commits perjury and lets his own wife take the fall? Is that something a husband would do?]

[I heard the one who committed perjury was Xylia’s son. The kid is so young, he must have been influenced by his father. Xylia is really unfortunate–her son and husband teamed up against her.]

[I heard that while she was in prison, someone severed the tendons in her hands and feet, and she was left crippled.]

[Yes, that’s right. I am a patient of Dr. Schultz. Three months ago, I saw Dr. Schultz being deliberately given a hard time by Connor and his family outside the operating room.]

[Really? I knew it–women who marry into wealthy families really have it tough!]

[Xylia was renowned as a master surgeon at the hospital. Unfortunately, her tendons in her hands and feet were severed, and she will never be able to operate again.]

[Yes, I also heard that Dr. Schultz’s hands and feet could have been saved at the time, but because her husband kept delaying treatment, she missed the best opportunity for treatment and was left permanently disabled.]

[Are you saying that we would have had a highly skilled, life–saving doctor, but he was framed by that shameless couple?]

[That despicable couple!]

The level of hatred netizens had for Xylia back then was now being mirrored in their anger towards Connor and Tessa.
