The CEO’s Regret My Ex-Wife is a Tech Goddess novel Chapter 212

With the scandal fully blown open, numerous tabloids began publishing rumors that Lily and Ethan's relationship had shattered, leading to a bitter breakup.

Soon after, internet forums exploded with gossip threads detailing how Lily had been the other woman in Ethan's marriage.

The once-revered high-society heiress had transformed into a social pariah overnight.

People bashed her for her reckless drunk driving, calling her a menace to society.

They dragged her name through the mud for being a shameless homewrecker.

Others even claimed she had slacked off during her studies in the United States, insisting her doctorate was entirely bought and paid for.

...

One afternoon, when Alaina returned to the Summers Estate, Mrs. Gable informed her that she had a visitor.

Alaina walked into the drawing room and was quite surprised to find Fiona Harrington waiting for her.

Fiona got straight to the point. She held out a square gift box and said, "While sorting through my mother's belongings, I found this. I opened it, and it turns out she left it for you. So, I brought it over."

Alaina paused, taking the box and placing it on her lap. She looked up at Fiona. "Can I... open it now?"

Fiona nodded.

She opened the box and found a crystal photo frame resting inside.

Seeing the people in the photograph, tears pricked the corners of her eyes.

She remembered it clearly; it was during her first year of marriage to Ethan.

Mrs. Harrington had gone out of her way to bake a cake and surprise her for her birthday.

At the time, Mrs. Harrington had asked her what she wanted most for her next birthday present.
