She Got A Better Man novel Chapter 239

Chapter 239 

“Because I refused to give in, the company sidelined me for two years. I couldn’t terminate my contract, had no work, and Mas nearly assaulted several times. Later, they kicked me out of the company for resisting” 

Cheryl continued. “The contract I signed prohibited me from doing any work related to the entertainment industry. I had to survive by taking odd jobs. 

“I handed out flyers, worked as a salesperson, and even wore a mascot costume at an amusement park. All the rumors online are false. I am innocent! I am the real victim!” 

Cheryl finally let out all the words that had been weighing on her heart. Speaking her truth to the entire world, she felt an immense sense of relief. 

Her eyes were resolute, her demeanor sincere, leaving little room for doubt. 

A journalist raised a hand to ask, “If you say you’re the victim, do you have any proof?” 

Another chimed in, “There’s plenty of concrete evidence online against you. Do you expect us to believe you just because you deny it? I could just as easily claim you’re lying. After all, what wrongdoer admits to their crimes?” 

A third reporter said, “Rumor has it that your actions caused the death of someone’s spouse. How can you be at peace?” 

Cheryl didn’t reply. 

The questions grew sharper and more aggressive, with some even leveraging false information from the internet. Cheryl trembled with anger, repeatedly asserting her innocence, but no one seemed to listen. 

Instead, the crowd eagerly documented her flustered demeanor their eyes cold and indifferent. 

Seeing this, Elvira intervened, signaling her team to play the videos debunking the rumors about Cheryl. 

The lawyer said, “Everyone, please settle down. Today, you will get the truth you’ve been seeking.” 

He continued, “We are now presenting evidence to disprove the rumors about Cheryl. If you still have doubts afterward, feel free to ask questions.” He played the slides on the big screen. 

The slides started with Cheryl’s management contract with the company. Key points included the contract duration, compensation, and the restrictive clauses regarding her career. 

The audience was stunned by what they saw. The contract was shockingly unfair. It bound her for ten years with a pitiful salary. 

More disturbingly, it prohibited her from engaging in any entertainment–related work outside of company arrangements during that period. Breaching the contract would result in exorbitant penalty fees. 

A journalist arranged by Judy quickly raised a question. “What’s the point of showing this? She signed this contract willingly. How is this relevant to the allegations? 

“Are you trying to imply that because the contract was unreasonable, she had to resort to immoral ways to earn money?” The comment elicited laughter from some of the online representatives in the room. Cheryl’s face flushed red with anger, and she tried to stand up to defend herself, but Elvira gently pulled her back, signaling her to stay calm. 

“Which outlet are you from?” the lawyer asked coldly, glaring at the journalis 

“Show me your press credentials. I’m here to present evidence, and you’re deliberately trying to mislead the discussion. I doubt you’re even legitimate. Please step aside.”

The lawyer could tell that this journalist was hired to manipulate the narrative of the situation.

The lawyer’s words immediately silenced the journalist, but when he tried to protest, security guards swiftly intervened. They didn’t harm him but escorted him out of the way, keeping close watch to prevent further disruptions. 

“Until I’ve finished presenting all the evidence, I ask everyone to remain quiet. Otherwise, I’ll consider it intentional 

lawyer said. interference, and you may receive a legal notice from my firm afterward,” the 

“Believe me, it wouldn’t take much effort to cause you some trouble.” The lawyer’s stern gaze swept across the room, silencing any dissent. 

He proceeded to present further evidence, including Cheryl’s work schedule while she was with the company. It showed that, as a newcomer, her assignments were minimal. 

Only after gaining recognition for a supporting role did she receive more opportunities, but even then, the projects offered were not significant. 

Someone hesitantly raised their hand, their voice trembling as they asked, “How do we know this is authentic?” 

“The documents were obtained legally during the police investigation, with full cooperation from the management company,” the lead officer on site confirmed. 

This statement left no room for doubt, and the room fell silent. 

The next revelation was a bombshell. It was a video. The footage exposed a shareholder from Cheryl’s company attempting to harass her. The video showed the harassment Cheryl endured and her determined resistance. 

At first, the shareholder hesitated to go too far, but Cheryl’s steadfast refusal eventually enraged him. The video even captured moments where he nearly assaulted her. 

As the video played, Cheryl trembled uncontrollably, her emotions overwhelming her. Elvira reached out and held her hand, offering support. 

The audience was stunned. No one had anticipated that the woman they had been attacking online had endured such trauma. Cheryl’s defiance in the video left no doubt about her unwillingness and the horrors she faced. 

Following the video, additional footage and photos were shown of Cheryl taking on various part–time jobs after being blacklisted, as well as images of the small apartment she rented. 

Given that the police had already verified the authenticity of these materials earlier, there was no room for skepticism. 

The presentation concluded with testimonies from former coworkers and employers who confirmed Cheryl’s part–time work under extremely challenging conditions. 

The police once again confirmed that these testimonies were absolutely true. The witnesses who came out to testify had already gone to the police station to help with the investigation.
