After the scandalous party, Erin’s image was ruined even more Sophia was reading all of the articles about Erin, and she couldn’t stop laughing whenever she read some nasty comments about her. Sophia chuckled when she read how mad the people were because of Erin.
“Stupid,” Sophia commented. She turned off her phone and tossed it on her bed. Sophia crossed her arms. She thought it was her time to make Eri see that she wasn’t an enemy.
Sophia went out to her room. She went to the kitchen, cooked food for Erin, and made everything taste better. While Sophia was cooking, Amelia saw her and went to her.
“Sophia, what are you doing? You can ask someone to cook for you.” Amelia suggested while looking at every ingredient Sophia had prepared. Sophia smiled at her.
“Auntie, I want to cook for Erin. I know she’s struggling now. I read a lot of articles about her, and I’m so devastated that some people commented as if they knew my sister! I can’t believe they dared to judge her without knowing her!” Sophia gnashed her teeth. She wanted Amelia to see that she cared for Erin, which was true. She managed to see how Erin would ruin her image even more.
Amelia nodded her head. She was pleased to hear what Sophia had been doing for her daughter. She left Sophia so she couldn’t be distracted while she was cooking. Amelia went to Erin's room.
“Erin, come out of your room. What are you doing? You can’t get Leo if you keep acting like that!” Amelia slammed the door. She was frustrated when Erin didn’t say anything. Amelia lowered her head to the door; she didn’t know why she was nervous.
“Erin! I tell you that you should be out in your room! Leo is getting more in love with Blossom.” Amelia was trying to use Erin’s anger on her ex-friend.
Amelia slammed the door again, and that time, Sophia walked to Erin's room. Sophia’s forehead creased when Erin didn’t open the door.
“Is she awake? I saw her a few hours ago. She went to the medicine kit.” Sophia went closer to the door. She knocked repeatedly, but Erin still wasn’t responding.
“Erin! Open this damn door!” Sophia shouted. Her knocks were getting loud, which made Amelia feel anxious about Erin.
“She isn’t responding now,” Amelia informed Sophia.
“Auntie, take the duplicate keys of this room,” Sophia commanded Amelia, which rattled Amelia. She was running for help, which made the maid panic because she screamed. Amelia went back to Sophia and gave her the keys.
Sophia took the keys and opened Erin’s bedroom. As they opened the door, they all saw Erin unconscious on the bed. Her hand was on the edge of the bed, and there was a bottle of pills scattered on the floor.
“Erin!” Amelia screamed in horror, but Sophia went to Erin so she could check if she was still breathing.
“She’s breathing. Call the ambulance!” Sophia yelled. She didn’t like that Erin would end her life because she wanted to torture her. Sophia would ensure that Erin and Amelia would get troubled because she would give justice for her mother’s death.
Erin was rushed to the hospital, but what she had done was a trend when one of the reporters came to the hospital. He secretly took a picture of Erin in the hospital bed and asked the nurses what had happened to her.
Erin was a talked in town. Some of the commentators assumed that Erin had ended her life because of the guilty that she had been carrying. Some commentators even said it was Erin’s way to make the whole crowd get their sympathy so they could forget about her scandalous affair. Some didn’t believe Erin had ended her life, and they concluded that it was Amelia’s way to get some attention for her daughter. After all, Erin’s image in the fashion industry wasn’t good at all.

Blossom turned off the television after she heard what Erin had been doing. She pursed her lips. She didn’t feel guilty because she thought Erin deserved everything that had happened to her. How many times would Erin try to end her life whenever she was the hot topic of the town?
She still remembers Erin got linked to a married man and ended her life so she could make the people sympathize with her. Erin was in the hospital when she let some reporters enter her room and got the needed interview. She denied everything about the allegations towards her and even accused the legal wife of ruining her life.
That day, her fans kept defending her, which made the legal wife get into an accident and almost die.
Blossom smirked. She took her phone and told some reporters to go to Erin’s room. After that, she messaged someone again, who had anger at Erin. She needed to use the opportunity so Erin wouldn’t be successful in blaming someone for her actions.
Blossom ensured Erin’s video at the party would be trendy; she ensured everyone would see when Erin sat beside Leo while Leo was with her.
“Bitch! Did you think I’m stupid not to see your next actions?” Blossom murmured. She hoped that she could watch the drama go on.
Blossom smirked when an idea came to her. She would make sure that she would get the spotlight at Erin.
When Erin opened her eyes, she was devastated when she realized she was still alive. She laughed so hard but cried when Amelia came inside her room.
“I asked someone to put makeup on you. They will ensure you look paler in front of the camera. You know how to act, darling.” Amelia whispered. There's a deceiving smile on her lips. They all plotted everything, and they used Sophia as the witness that Erin took medicine from the medicine box.
Amelia acted like she didn't know, and she made sure that her acting was too natural.
“Mom, I don't always like to do this whenever there is a scandal,” Erin complained, but Amelia laughed.
“You should be thankful that I still have plans to help you with your mess. Erin, you should know how to make them feel you are the victim here.” Amelia was like a devil trying to whisper nasty things to her daughter.
As with their plan, a reporter came in, and this reporter was their most trusted one. Amelia was excited for Erin; she could finally have a spotlight.
Erin coughed and closed her eyes. She acted like she wasn't still recovering yet. Erin plainly smiled at the reporter when he focused the camera on her.
“So, we will start now?” Amelia asked the reporter, nodded, and was about to ask many questions when a group of reporters came into the scene.
The security team thought Amelia wanted them in their room, too, because a reporter had come in. Amelia was shocked when she saw how violent the reporters were in getting news about Erin.
Erin didn't know what she would do next because she didn't know who had let the group of reporters come inside.
“We are on live television to see what happened to the most scandalous woman here in this country.” A reporter said, which astounded Amelia because she didn't like that Erin would be in a live telecast.
“Ms. Amelia, we discovered that you let the only reporter come here. Are you scared that the truth might come out?” The reporter enquired, which made Amelia try to stop herself from getting mad.
“Excuse me?” Amelia didn't know how to react because the reporter concluded she was trying to hide the truth.
Erin started to cry. She sobbed so loudly, and she ensured the camera would record how well she acted.
“I didn't know what happened to me. And I know that someone was trying to ruin me. I'm the victim here.” Erin was pleading with the camera; she gasped as if she couldn't breathe.
“I didn't do anything wrong. Please, believe me.” Erin's cries didn't move the group of reporters' hearts. She even made sure that she hurt herself.
Amelia had a worried expression for her daughter. She came closer to her and hugged her.
“Did you all see how my daughter gets miserable now? Are you all happy that you ruined her?” Amelia gritted her teeth. Erin hugged Amelia and sobbed that Amelia could almost embrace her tightly
“But, we found some evidence that your daughter tried to seduce Leopold Fontaine while he was with her legal wife. Some wealthy people testified that they were horrified when they saw how Erin acted that day. Are you telling us that those who tell it's true mean they were lying?”
“Of course! I know my daughter. I'm the one who takes care of her!” Amelia exclaimed.
“She's the victim here. She didn't have a relationship with Leo! How dare you all accuse her for simple videos or pictures?” Amelia felt that if she didn't do anything to prove that Erin was a victim. Those people who wanted to ruin her daughter's life would do everything to ruin Erin's life.
“Victim? This woman isn't a victim.” A woman came to the scene; she was fuming mad, which made Amelia widen her eyes in surprise when she noticed who the woman was. It was a Live telecast, and she was sure everything wouldn't be good.
“I know you all know me. I'm the woman who got into an accident three years ago after I exposed how Erin stole my husband.” The woman smirked and laughed so loudly.
“You liar! What are you talking about?” Erin yelled. Her eyes looked swollen because of the makeup that had been put on her face. She clenched her jaw and gave the woman a murderous glare when the woman gave her a smirk.
The woman took her phone. She swiped something in her phone and focused it on the camera. “This is the proof. My husband didn't want to divorce me, and he still keeps seeing this bitch. This video was happy last month.”
“We can sue you for slandering my daughter.” Amelia was trying to warn the woman.
“I am the one who will sue your daughter for sleeping with a married man. And, if something bad might happen to me again, this is all their fault. Let's see if you all still can touch me.” The woman disputed. She played the video which made Erin cry in shame.
That time, Blossom was walking in the hallway. She was wearing a blank-fitted top and black pants with black boots. She even wore her expensive black sunglasses while her lips were so red. Her heels created a sound that made the reporters look at her and focus the camera on her.
Blossom had her poker expression and elegantly entered the room.
“Oh, I didn't know that there are a lot of reporters here.” Blossom awkwardly laughed and put the chrysanthemum she had brought for Erin.
Amelia widened her eyes when she saw the flower that Blossom had been putting on the table. At the same time, Erin's expression was full of disbelief.
“Erin, you are my friend. You told me two years ago that this is your favorite flower. I was alone in the house when you bought me this flower so I could be happy about the death of my marriage. I went to the flower shop, and I saw on the television that you tried to kill yourself again.” Blossom's voice was so sweet that even the reporters didn't even know if Blossom was being sarcastic or not.
“As your friend, I want to give this to you. Don't try this stunt because even society knows how you deceived us.” Blossom added and smiled at the reporters.
The woman nodded and looked at the reporters. “I will file a case against Erin and my husband again.”
Blossom's mouth twitched, and she glimpsed at Erin, who was gritting her teeth as if she wanted to murder her.
