The shopping receipt flashed across the screen for everyone to see.This piece of evidence just proved
that Eris had indeed drugged Wendy.
"Vernon, you said you're Eris' admirer.But why are you exposing her true colors right now?" one of the
reporters asked.
"It's because Eris has a lot of fans, many of which are young, naive girls.I don't want them to be
deceived by her anymore.Not only that, I don't want them to idolize a person like her."
The reporters fell silent upon hearing his response.
Once Vernon was done with his part, he left the scene with a security escort to ensure his safety.
Despite his revelation with a solid piece of evidence, Cacia remained in denial.
"Bullshit! Everything he said was complete, utter bullshit! How dare you slander my daughter? You just
want to ruin her reputation and drag our family into trouble, don't you? Wendy, you're so cruel!"
Upon saying that, she reached out to scratch Wendy's face.
However, Wendy did not move, much less flinch.
Before Cacia could touch her, the security guards rushed over and pulled her back.
"Behave yourself!" one of the guards ordered.
"Let go of me!"
Cacia yelled while struggling to break free from the security guards' grasp.
"If you keep resisting, I'll send you to the police station!” Cacia stopped at once.Now that she had
settled down, Reese continued.
"The day Wendy was drugged was the day she lost her virginity." A reporter stood up and said, "It
doesn't sound right.If Wendy was indeed drugged, she should've called the police when the effects of
the drug wore off, right? Even if she didn't call the police, she should've felt something and made a
scene."
The other reporters nodded in agreement.This conjecture was actually reasonable.
If it were someone else, that person would have called for help the instant she felt that she lost her
virginity unwillingly, would she not? However, Rosie's wedding went perfectly.
"That is what I'm about to say next," Reese replied.
She looked at Wendy, who was standing aside with a pale face.
Wendy smiled bitterly at her sister and urged, "Reese, go ahead."
What had happened to her four years ago left a deep wound.
Mentioning it felt like peeling off dry scabs, exposing the fresh and bloody wound.But sometimes, the
wound would only heal when the rotten part was removed, even if it hurt.
"Prior to the incident, Eris and Brian had already been dating for a year," Reese revealed and showed
them something.
"This is Eris's Facebook account.She no longer uses this.There are a lot of posts about Brian in here
and intimate photos of them, all of which were posted by Eris herself.You can check the date and time
when those photos were posted.You'll know when she and Brain started betraying Wendy.In order to
get rid of suspicion, Eris called Brian after the incident and asked him to lie in the bed next to
Wendy.That way, when Wendy woke up, Brian would be the first person she would see.That's not
all.Brian helped Eris bury the truth.He told Wendy that he was the man whom she had sex with the
night before.At that time, Wendy and Brian were together for three years.My sister loved him and
believed in him, so much so that she did not make a scene."
Reese's eyes turned red as she spoke the truth.
"A few months later, Wendy found out that she was pregnant.She decided to drop out of school to
focus on her pregnancy and prevent miscarriage.Meanwhile, Brian was still covering up for Eris and
pretending to be happy.He even promised Wendy he would marry her after the baby was born.He
actually did a great job.He took Wendy to the hospital whenever it was time for her prenatal
checkup.He was like the real father.The situation continued eight months into her pregnancy."
The reporters were completely dumbfounded.
"Oh my God! I never expected that Brian was actually vile.He seems like a nice guy," one of the
reporters remarked.
"I agree.He should've just broken up with Wendy if he no longer loved her.He not only dated two
women at the same time, but he also hurt Wendy on purpose to help his other woman.He cheated on
Wendy, who only loved him with all her heart, and watched her belly grow bigger.How cruel!"
"Wasn't he afraid of being punished by God after deceiving such an innocent woman?"
"What a player!"
The reporters expressed their disgust at Brian and Eris with each other.They also cursed the two.They
could not help but feel sorry for Wendy.
Her life at the hands of those vicious people had been miserable.She did not deserve any of that.With
tears streaming down her face, Reese continued, "Eight months into her pregnancy, something worse
happened to her at home.One day, Ruben told me that Wendy stabbed Eris, who was then rushed to
the hospital for sustaining a serious injury.Unsurprisingly, Brian stayed by Eris' side and never left.But
Wendy...Ruben and Cacia said that Brian had kicked her.Her belly happened to hit the corner of the
table, which resulted in her bleeding to death."
Reese choked on tears as she recalled what had happened three years ago.
"They said that Wendy was already dead, but I didn't believe them.She was just fine two days before
the incident.How could she die all of a sudden? I didn't believe it unless I saw her body.In fact, I
demanded to see her body.But, they told me that Wendy had already been cremated.What's more, they
held a funeral without telling me.The police even canceled Wendy's household registration.If you don't
believe me, you can verify this with the police." The reporters gasped in shock.
They turned to look at Wendy.
One of the reporters stood up and asked, "Wendy, can you tell us what happened three years ago?"
Wendy had just been standing on the stage quietly the whole time.She was gaunt.She lost weight
recently because of Raymond's accident, and her black shirt and pants were making her look even
thinner.
Reese sobbed several times as she spoke.
Wendy, however, just stood there calmly, as though she was listening to someone else's story.Her
calmness was what actually made people feel sorry for her.
"This will be the last time I'm going to recall what happened three years ago," Wendy said calmly.
Upon hearing this, the reporters stopped talking and listened carefully.
Not a hint of anger or unrest could be heard in Wendy's voice.
It was as though she was not telling about her rough and miserable past.
"To put it simply Eris stabbed herself in order to make Brian and me break up.She couldn't wait to be
with him anymore.She stabbed herself and put the blame on me.In a fit of anger, Brian kicked me, and I
had a massive bleeding.Cacia took this as an opportunity to get rid of me.I was lucky.She threw me into
the sea, and I got washed ashore.Thankfully, a kind person saw me and took me to the hospital.I was
in a coma for two weeks.It was a miracle that my baby and I survived.When I got home, I found out that
my family had held a funeral for me.I was afraid that they would finish me off if I stayed in Ywood, so I
took my child to the US.I lived there for a couple of years.In fact, I just came back a few months ago."
Her words were simple, but everyone could feel the bitterness in them.
The reporters could not imagine what Wendy had gone through.
After all, she was only twenty years old three years ago.
They had no idea how she managed to survive despite the fact that she was alone.
"By the way, the kind person I've mentioned earlier took me to General Hospital in Ywood.The doctor
who delivered my baby hasn't retired yet.If you have any doubts, you can ask him to prove my
statement."
Wendy paused for a moment and pursed her lips.
"I spoke out the truth because I want the public to help me obtain the justice I deserve.But that's not
all.I also have another reason for doing this."
"What is it?" a reporter asked.
"I have a child! I love him with all my heart.I don't want him to live in secret anymore.I don't want
anyone to wonder who he is if we're photographed one day while having fun.I'm a mother.I love my
child so much.I don't want him to get hurt."
