I stared at her coldly and said, “This video has already been submitted to the police. The truth will come out soon enough.”
Hearing this, Chloe’s legs gave way, and she stumbled backward. Seeing her panic, Jayden immediately stepped in, trying to shift the blame.
Pointing at me with his face twisted in rage, he yelled, “From the looks of it, you knew Mom was going to end up like this all along, didn’t you?! What kind of daughter are you? You saw your mom in danger and did nothing. You just watched calmly. Is Mom’s life worth less than your petty jealousy? No wonder you’re not sad at all about Mom’s death. I bet you let her die just to get back at us!”
Jayden’s emotions exploded as he shifted the focus once again. His words caused a frenzy both in the crowd and online:]
“She’s her daughter, after all. How can she act like nothing happened after her mom died?” “Even if her mom’s death wasn’t her fault, she’s still way too cold–hearted” “Yeah, she’s probably so blinded by jealousy that she didn’t even care about her mom’s life.” “Just look at her expression. She’s clearly not a good person. Looks like we weren’t wrong to blame her.“]
Jayden successfully turned everyone’s anger toward me, flipping the situation in his favor.
But I didn’t panic at all. Instead, I quietly made a call. “Bring them over.”

Seeing this, Jayden frowned slightly and asked, “What kind of trick are you pulling now?”
I remained calm and said, “Weren’t you curious why I wasn’t sad about my mom’s death? You’re about to find out.”
Immediately, everyone’s curiosity was piqued. All eyes were on me, waiting to see how I’d explain myself.]
Jayden snorted coldly, his voice full of confidence. “Stop acting mysterious. Do you really think this will change the fact that you’re a heartless daughter? Mom’s body is right here. Her body’s covered in injuries, clear as day. Even if it wasn’t suicide, you’re still responsible.”
Jayden pointed at the body on the ground, a smug, calculated look on his face, as if he’d already won
I glanced at the body and said expressionlessly, “Are you sure she’s really injured?“]
Hearing this, Jayden scoffed as if I’d told the biggest joke. “Of course! I’ve seen you abuse her every day with my own eyes. Her injuries never healed! I can’t believe you’re still trying to argue. Fine, I’ll show everyone just how cruel you really
are!”
With that, Jayden confidently reached out and rolled up my mom’s sleeve. But my mom’s pale arm had no marks at all.
Jayden’s eyes widened in shock. In disbelief, he rolled up her pant legs. There were no old injuries on her legs either.]
“This… this can’t be possible.” Jayden stammered, completely stunned.
The crowd was equally confused. “Wasn’t she supposed to have been abused by her daughter for years? She looks well taken care of to me.” “Yeah, her skin is even smoother than mine, and I’m younger. What’s going on?” “Could it be that the claims of her daughter abusing her were lies too?”
Everyone was lost in confusion, murmuring to themselves. Meanwhile, Chloe ran frantically to the body, checking it
thoroughly, scanning every inch of it, even examining the face carefully. After a while, she seemed to realize something shocking. Her face turned pale as she whispered, “How can this be? No, It’s not possibler“]
Then suddenly, Chloe broke down in tears, clutching the body and crying hysterically.
The crowd became even more bewildered. “What is going on?” “Why does it seem like Chloe’s the one who lost her mom?” “Isn’t this the woman she pushed off the roof herself? Why Is she crying now?”
As the crowd buzzed with confusion, my assistant arrived with someone else. When this person walked in, the entire crowd went silent, their eyes widening in shock.
