Chapter 156 Now? You’re Done
Gemma was dumbfounded. Netizens were cursing at her nonstop. She was angry and scared.
She didn’t understand how Scarlett got proof that she hired the trolls.
But the proof was real.
The money really came from her account.
She couldn’t even argue.
Gemma completely panicked.
Now she only had one friend left–Hazel.
She quickly called Hazel.
Hazel had just seen the evidence Scarlett posted.
When she saw that Gemma had even sold her adoptive father’s handwriting, she was bewildered.
She couldn’t believe someone could be that stupid and that cruel.
If she had known Gemma had pulled something like that, she never would’ve helped her.

She’d wondered why Zoey was so cold to the child she raised for over ten years. Even if Gemma wasn’t her biological daughter, it still felt too harsh to take back all the assets she gave her.
And the Quinns wouldn’t even care about a few hundred million anyway.
Turns out, Gemma had already messed up big once before.
Hazel stared at Gemma’s incoming call. She bit her lip and answered.
She didn’t have a choice. If she didn’t answer, she was afraid Gemma would get mad and leak their chat history.
If the Quinns or the Crawfords found out she was the one who lent Gemma money to hire trolls to attack them, they’d hate her even more–and hate her father, too.
Her dad already knew the Quinns didn’t want to work with them, so he had started looking for other companies.
After all, Daniel was a major government official
No businessman wanted to get on Daniel’s bad side.
If he spread a few words in the business world, her dad wouldn’t be able to find any partners at all.
Hazel answered the phone, and Gemma’s sobbing voice came through. “Hazel, what should I do? My parents must hate me even more now. Why doesn’t Scarlett just die? Why is she so evil?
“She’s already ruined my life. Why can’t she just leave me alone? Now she exposed those two things, too. Everyone is trashing me online.

“How am I supposed to go back to the Quinns and the Crawfords now? Hazel, please, help me think of something!”
Even now, all Gemma cared about was getting back to her rich, pampered life.

“Y–you… stop crying first,” Hazel said. She was furious inside, but she kept her voice soft. “Don’t go online for now. Just ignore everything. Let it cool down.
“I think your adoptive parents still care about you. If they didn’t, they would’ve posted the evidence themselves. But they didn’t. That probably means they still have feelings for you.
“So just stay quiet. After some time, when they calm down, apologize sincerely. Maybe they’ll forgive you.”
Gemma was still sobbing.
“R–really? But I’ve already screwed them over twice…”
Hazel was so angry. So you know that?
But she kept her tone gentle. “It’s okay. They raised you for over ten years. There has to be some bond. So don’t read the comments. Don’t go online. Just focus on your own life.”
Gemma agreed while crying.
But after hanging up, she still couldn’t help checking the comments.
More and more people were attacking her.
She cried so hard she almost broke down.
Then she saw Scarlett tag her again.
“@GemmaCrawford, you’ve always been rude and bossy. You never talk softly. So who told you to go online and play the victim?
“You don’t even have money. Who lent you money to hire trolls? Are they setting you up on purpose?
“Who is so heartless to tell you to attack the parents who loved you for 16 years?”
“Isn’t that person just trying to ruin you on purpose?”
She was clearly trying to turn Gemma against Hazel,
If Gemma and Hazel started fighting each other, even better.
Then she wouldn’t need to use a big influencer account to leak their chat screenshots.
She wanted Hazel’s true colors exposed to everyone.
