He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 83

Sylvia was still reveling in her smugness when, out of nowhere, she found herself trending on social media once again.

This time, it wasn't just a few anonymous text posts. Someone had leaked an entire gallery of high-definition photos showing Yardley constantly by her side.

Simultaneously, a heartbreaking timeline was released, documenting Scarlett attending her prenatal checkups alone, giving birth alone, hemorrhaging in the hospital with no family to sign the consent forms, and enduring her postpartum recovery entirely by herself.

The Flynn Group's PR department had just exhausted massive resources suppressing the previous scandal.

Just as they thought they could catch their breath, this new wave of explosive exposure slammed into them. The entire staff was forced into overtime, desperately trying to delete posts, control the narrative, and push the trending topics down.

But it felt as if an invisible, immensely powerful hand was orchestrating the chaos from the shadows. No matter what they did, the scandal remained at the top of the charts.

Sylvia and Yardley were absolutely slaughtered in the court of public opinion.

Staring at the screen filled with vile insults and vicious curses, Sylvia trembled violently, completely consumed by rage.

When she had originally sent those photos to Scarlett, she had done it for the sheer, petty thrill of inflicting pain.

She had been entirely certain that a pushover like Scarlett wouldn't dare do a thing and would simply swallow the humiliation in silence.

She never imagined that every single one of those photos would now be plastered across the internet for the world to see.

Worse yet, someone had even leaked the official visitor logs from the postpartum recovery center, showing Yardley's signatures as her primary caregiver. It was all there in black and white, utterly undeniable.

The more arrogant Sylvia had been while showing off, the more agonizing the backlash felt now.

The internet was a boiling ocean of outrage.

Various damning hashtags fought their way to the number one spot.

Seeing all of this, Sylvia began to hyperventilate. Her emotions spiraled out of control, her heart hammered wildly in her chest, and losing all rationality, she directly dialed Scarlett's number.

Had Stellan gone out of his way to dig up even more dirt on them?

Scarlett pondered it for a moment but decided not to dwell on the details.

How it was done didn't matter. What mattered was nailing Yardley and Sylvia to the pillar of public shame, ensuring they wouldn't know a moment of peace.

If their own consciences wouldn't condemn them, then she would let the furious voices of millions of strangers tear them to shreds.

For some reason, Yardley started calling Scarlett's phone relentlessly.

Scarlett had already blocked his number and every other method of contact he possessed. But to her annoyance, he began using his employees' phones, cycling through them one by one.

Scarlett still had those numbers saved from her time working there, and since she had maintained good relationships with her former colleagues, she didn't ignore the calls.

But every time she picked up, the voice that greeted her was that deep, magnetic baritone that now filled her with nothing but sheer revulsion.
