LOGINUpon returning home from completing a vital national project, I find out that my grandfather has been reduced to a cripple after being beaten up by a famous Internet star, Nathan Larsson. All because Grandpa accidentally got in Nathan's way when he was picking up trash. Enraged, I choose to call the cops on Nathan. But my CEO wife, Whitney Backman, becomes Nathan's witness. She sits at the witness stand with a righteous look plastered on her face. "Grandpa is sickly, to begin with. Yet he insists on picking up trash on his own. After he tripped and fell, he accused Nathan of pushing him! I can't just sit by and watch an innocent man get slandered! That's why I chose to defend him!" Everyone present at the court supports Whitney's statement. Even the judge declares that Grandpa is guilty, and that we are to pay a huge compensation to Nathan. Hatred brims in my eyes as I turn on the livestream and dig out Grandpa's medals of valor as well as my dad's first class medals.

The case where someone was crushed to death has also been dug up. The authorities are on site. They've also uncovered embezzlement and tax evasion!"The voice on the other end left Whitney no room to relax. She went pale, swaying as if she were about to collapse. If Nathan hadn't caught her, she would've fallen right there.Her pitiful state sparked his anger toward the rest. "So, this is what you guys have been planning, huh?"The police chief was infuriatingly speechless. "You guys are bold—I'll tell you that much."Austin handed the recovered footage to me. I walked up to the chief and pleaded, "This is the footage of Nathan Larsson assaulting Benjamin Spark, my grandfather. I hope you'll handle this fairly."The chief nodded eagerly. "Of course! Leave that to me! No matter what, I'll clear your grandpa's name!"After receiving his guarantee, Austin
I played the footage I had saved from the surveillance camera in my study. The lewd sounds and indecent scenes rendered Nathan and Whitney shocked."Since when did you have cameras in the study?" she blurted out, realizing she had misspoken, then quickly corrected herself. "How could you make a deepfake of us?" I chuckled lightly. "Deepfake or not, the experts will judge for themselves."I turned to Nathan. "Don't you love your work? And how fast you make money? If I just upload this video, who knows what will happen to your shining career?"His face darkened with a flash of anger. Before I could react, he grabbed my phone and smashed it to the floor. "Go ahead and do it! Let's see how you're going to upload it now!"His voice had an edge of madness to it.I shook my head softly. "Oh, no. Too bad, I already scheduled the upload. If saving Grandpa goes smoothly, I might still pull it back. But now that you've broken my phone, I have no way of stopping it from going out to the wor
I was worried sick about Grandpa. He had old illnesses on top of his new injuries. If he stayed in prison too long, there was no telling what might happen to him.Conrad and Maverick felt the same way. Thus, they brought me straight to the police station. No matter what, getting Grandpa out first was the top priority.As for the video evidence that had been swapped, they also helped arrange for technicians to work on it. The fake video Whitney had produced was also being restored and compared by well-known experts.Multiple teams were working simultaneously. To save Grandpa, they were truly putting in immense effort.When Conrad, Maverick, and I arrived at the police station entrance, we ran straight into Nathan and Whitney. Although they tried to disguise themselves with hats and masks, I easily recognized them from their figures.Whitney clearly saw me, too. She went from initially shocked to contemptuous when seeing Conrad and Maverick. "Wow. Sending one old man into prison was
Meanwhile, Whitney and Nathan, who hadn't managed to catch up with me, were looking extremely grim. In my scramble to escape, I had grabbed things at random and hurled them at them.One of the items struck Nathan square on the forehead, leaving a swollen bump there. Whitney looked at his forehead, distressed. "I don't think you'll be able to film for the next few days."In this era where traffic and exposure were everything, disappearing for too long meant being tossed into oblivion. Irritation churned in his head. Still, he pulled her into his arms and said, "It's fine. I have you, don't I?"She nodded. "Don't worry. I'm the CEO now. I'm running the company myself, so I'm not that powerless woman who couldn't fight alongside you anymore."The way she gazed at him screamed infatuation.He kissed her. "I believe in you. Once this whole thing is settled, we can finally be together. We'll get married openly, with no more restraints, no more hiding."Hearing that, Whitney leaned forw
