Chapter 44
Damian looked up, his voice hoarse. “What’s your idea?”
Isabelle leaned close to his ear and slowly outlined her plan:
Edit the surveillance footage from when Sophia hit her and leak it online. Create explosive headlines— something like “Wealthy Heiress Caught Attacking Her Own Sister”-then use professional PR teams to push it trending.
After that, pay for coordinated online harassment campaigns against Sophia.
“I know my sister better than anyone. She’s too proud to let people think badly of her, especially when it’s not
true.”
Isabelle blinked innocently, her face wearing a gentle smile while her words turned cold as ice.
“When the whole internet is coming after her, when she gets doxxed and her work and personal life fall apart, she won’t be able to stay hidden anymore.

For the first time, he realized that this girl he’d been so carefully protecting might not be as innocent as he’d thought.
He wasn’t unfamiliar with manipulating public opinion, but using such methods against his own wife-wasn’t that too ruthless?
But Sophia’s complete silence, the fact that she’d made up her mind to leave him, felt like an iron chain constantly tightening around his throat, suffocating him.
Perhaps this was the bitter medicine needed, the only way to break the deadlock and force her to surface.
He was obsessed with finding her. He had to find her.
At the very least, he needed answers-why had she left without a word?
This thought ultimately overwhelmed everything else.
Still reeling but determined, he called Liam to work out .the details.
Once the orders went out, the PR team kicked into high
gear.

trending nationwide, with headlines screaming:
“Billionaire Heiress Sophia Anderson Caught on Camera Attacking Her Own Sister in Jealous Rage!”
The carefully edited footage showed Sophia grabbing Isabelle by the collar and striking her, then cut to close-ups of Isabelle crying and covering her bruised face.
Paid trolls flooded the comments with coordinated
talking points, branding Sophia as “jealous of her sister,” “mentally unstable,” and “a spoiled brat abusing her privilege.”
Real users quickly joined in, and hateful comments poured into the thread.
Next, Isabelle started a livestream on her social media
account.
In front of the camera, she wore a hospital gown with no makeup, her facial wounds clearly visible.
Her eyes were red and brimming with tears as she spoke:
“Hi everyone, I’m Isabelle-Sophia Anderson’s sister. Please, please stop attacking her.

provoked her.
“Please, I’m begging you-leave my sister alone. She’s going through so much right now…”
This “taking the high road” performance was like pouring gasoline on a fire, instantly sparking even more sympathy and outrage from users.
Public opinion turned completely against Sophia, and her personal information was doxxed by self-appointed “internet detectives.”
Her work ID photo was edited into mocking “RIP” memes and death threats, spreading virally across every platform.
Countless unknown numbers blew up her phone with calls, and her inbox filled with death threats and vile
messages.
The official website of Zenith Corporation, where she worked, was also flooded by angry users demanding she be fired.

Ramian gripped Sophia’s old phone tightly, watching the screen light up and dim in his office.

He casually scrolled through some of them-words like “go die,” “go to hell,” and “may you die horribly” lashed at his nerves like barbed whips.
The more he read, the colder his expression became, a suffocating tightness gripping his chest.
He felt almost sick relief that this phone was still in his hands.
These filthy words couldn’t contaminate her, at least not
yet.
“Just wait a little longer. It’ll be over soon.” Damian
seemed to be convincing himself while trying to calm the intense unease in his heart.
Once she surfaced, everything would end, and he’d
