A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses stood up.

"Good day, everyone. I am Professor Eric Watson. From a psychological perspective, people like Phineas, who have long been at the bottom of society, tend to accumulate large amounts of negative emotion. When they see luxury cars like a Porsche, it can trigger resentment toward the ri

    A piercing police siren wailed outside the gates as several officers rushed into the lobby.The lead officer was the same heavyset man from yesterday, Officer John Smith.He brushed right past me and went straight to Layla.With a sharp click, he secured cold handcuffs around Layla's wrists."Layla Wagner, you are under suspicion of child abuse and making false accusations to frame someone. Please come with us."Officer Smith then turned to Lucas. "Lucas Davidson, you're suspected of obstruction of justice. You're coming with us too."I remained on the platform, watching as they were dragged away by the police. Only then did the anger I had been suppressing for so long finally dissipate.…Half a month later, Layla was formally placed under criminal detention on suspicion of child abuse and making false accusations. A long prison sentence awaited her.Steelmark Construction was hit with a wave of nationwide backlash. Business partners rapidly backed out and ended their con

    I pressed the report down firmly and shoved Lucas back with my free hand."Mr. Davidson, what's the hurry? Are you afraid everyone will see what's really going on?"I lifted the report and presented it to the cameras, ensuring the hospital seal and the doctor's signature were in full view."This is the emergency critical condition notice and ABG report from Walsington General Hospital's ER. It clearly states that the child was trapped in a sealed vehicle under extreme heat for an extended time, leading to severe heatstroke that was life-threatening."A wave of shock erupted across the hall."Oh my god, is that what happened?""He locked the child in the car? What kind of mother does that?"Cold sweat broke out on Lucas' forehead. He forced himself to stay calm and shouted into the microphone, "Don't believe his nonsense! He's trying to shift the focus! Even if the boy was sick, that doesn't justify smashing a car or assaulting someone!"I glanced at Lucas' panicked face and too

    "As you all can see, my wife has suffered severe psychological trauma. Today, we've also invited a renowned psychology expert, Professor Watson," Lucas said.A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses stood up."Good day, everyone. I am Professor Eric Watson. From a psychological perspective, people like Phineas, who have long been at the bottom of society, tend to accumulate large amounts of negative emotion. When they see luxury cars like a Porsche, it can trigger resentment toward the rich and destructive urges. Such individuals are a serious threat to society and must be dealt with strictly."The live stream chat exploded, flooding with insults and condemnation directed at me."Lock that delivery guy up!""Professor Watson is right. Poverty breeds evil, while wealth fosters morality.""Long live Mr. Davidson, a hero who cleanses society of its scourge!"At the height of the public outrage, I kicked open the glass doors of the lobby with a deafening bang. The sound echoed

    The assistant glanced around the place, covering his nose in clear disgust before walking over to me. He pulled a bank card from his briefcase and slapped it down hard on the table."Phineas, Mr. Davidson sent me to find you. There's 200 thousand dollars in this card. The password is six eights."I was sitting on a tire, wiping down a wrench in my hand. I didn't even look up."What's this supposed to mean?"The assistant looked down at me condescendingly."Mr. Davidson said all you need to do is record a video admitting you damaged the car out of resentment toward the rich and publicly apologize to both him and Mrs. Davidson. The 200 thousand dollars is meant to buy your silence," he said. "Mr. Davidson is being generous and will drop the lawsuit. You'll also be exempt from paying the 500 thousand dollars in compensation."He hesitated for a beat, then said in a warning tone, "You've lost your job, and your daughter can't even go to kindergarten now. Take the money and leave th

    In just two hours, the incident exploded across the internet.The headline "Porsche Female Owner Accuses Delivery Rider of Violence" shot straight to the top of the trending list.Collective outrage and moral judgment forced me into the eye of the storm. Online insults flooded in like a tide that refused to stop.Soon, all my personal information was laid bare online."Phineas Kensington, retired firefighter, currently a delivery rider. Address: 4 Peace Street, Riverville."Even information on my daughter, Lindsey Kensington, and her kindergarten was leaked."He's garbage through and through. His daughter must be just like him!""Let's go to the kindergarten and corner him!

    "I almost fell for his lies. People like him belong behind bars."Lucas straightened his tie and looked down at me with cold arrogance. "Kid, if you don't have evidence, then stop making accusations. Come up with 500 thousand within three days. If you fail to do that, I will make sure you won't be able to stay in this city."I was surrounded by a crowd, unable to defend myself. Money spoke louder than truth, and there were no cameras to back me up. In their eyes, I was already finished.I stared at Lucas's hypocritical face and Layla's smug smile. Rage churned violently in my chest.Layla pulled the latest smartphone out of her bag and opened Instagram. She went live and quickly captioned it, "Delivery Guy Smashes Porsche Out of Jealousy."Within seconds, thousands of people flooded into the stream.She adjusted her hair and squeezed out a few tears on camera.
