She Made It, Then Dumped Me Chapter 8
I turned back in surprise.She lowered her head, her eyes a little red."I'm sorry. I lied."I frowned.She looked up at me."It was the only way to get you to come see me. Will, can I ask you something? Why did you save me back then?"I answered without much patience."Simple decency, that's all. I was only trying to crush a competitor. I didn't need to wipe out an entire family.""Is that so..."She smiled bitterly."But you left an impression on me."I froze."Will, all these years, I've wanted to see you again. I created plenty of chances, but the moment you realized someone was connected to the Fryes, you'd cancel every appointment. You've been avoiding me, haven't you?"That was when it came back to me.I really had turned down more than a few meeting requests connected to the Frye name.Kaley's earlier warning hadn't left me unaffected.I knew she couldn't be coming to me with good intentions. But I hadn't had the time to deal with her either. So I'd simply black

The story kept gaining traction.Someone even dug up the fact that my mother wasn't a local, twisting it into proof that I was a traitor to my own country.Meanwhile, public sympathy swung hard toward Laura.[No way. Will played the wronged boyfriend so well, I actually believed Laura was the one who betrayed him!][Looking at this now, a literal traitor reporting Laura for tax fraud? Hard not to wonder if he's persecuting an innocent woman.][Laura says she never committed tax fraud! It has to be that she stood up to him, and that's why he's trying to sabotage her!][I never stopped believing in Laura, not even when everyone was dragging her name through the mud. I knew she was innocent all along!][Death to the mongrel! He's the reason Laura spent all that time behind bars! Bring her back!][Exactly! Bring Laura back!]The authorities launched an investigation into me immediately.Not just domestically. My headquarters overseas got pulled in too.Every one of my closest pe

"Will, I know you're just being stubborn right now, but this is your very last chance. Think it over carefully."Laura hung up after that.I forced down the anger rising in my chest."Bring Arthur Maxwell to me."The man was dragged in by my people.I looked him over and laughed coldly."Arthur, quite the display of power you've got. So many people warned me not to cross you."Arthur nearly dropped to his knees."I swear I had no idea it was you! I only backed Laura because I saw she had real potential and commercial value."If I'd known she was going up against you, I'd have had her blacklisted before anyone else could! I was wrong! I know I was wrong!"I smiled."Since you're this sorry about it, I don't see any reason Maxwell Group needs to keep operating."Arthur's whole body went rigid.He swallowed hard."Fine. Whatever you say, sir."I tossed a knife down at his feet.I took a sip of my coffee."Two fingers. Pick them yourself."Cold sweat ran down Arthur's for

"Leo, are you sure this is going to be okay? Will seems like he might actually have some real pull."In the room, Leo lay in bed with his arms around Laura.Laura pressed gently against his chest."No matter how much pull Will has, does he really compare to Arthur Maxwell? Don't worry. I've already had him blacklisted across the board. You don't need to worry about him getting back at you."Leo laughed and stroked her hair."You're so good to me."Laura held him, gazing into his eyes like she was lost in them."Silly. From the day he pulled you away from those debt collectors and brought you home to take care of you, I knew I was done for."Color rushed to Leo's face."The first twenty years of my life were miserable, but if meeting you was the reward waiting at the end of it, I'd let those debt collectors torture me all over again."A low, ragged breathing filled the room, along with the creak of the bed frame rocking."Thank you, Laura..."Leo said between breaths."I re

The call ended.The money hit my account.Given the situation, I had no choice but to grit my teeth and accept it.Once this was all over, I was going to get my revenge.…Dad's condition stabilized. But only for the moment.The follow-up treatment was still going to cost a fortune.And of course, the extremist fan who'd attacked Dad was as arrogant as ever, willing to sit in jail rather than pay a cent in compensation.My accounts still hadn't been unfrozen.Friends pooled money together to help cover part of the medical bills. But it was only ever a small part.The hospital said if I couldn't raise more money, Dad would have to be moved to a regular ward.I sat against the wall in the hallway, listening to the steady beeping of the machines hooked up to him, and for the first time I couldn't see any way out."Mr. Chappell, I heard you need money."A few strangers stood in front of me."We can offer you a loan. It just depends... on whether you want the money badly enoug

I hadn't done anything like that. The authorities would clear my name eventually, I was sure of it.But while I cooperated with the investigation, every asset I had stayed frozen.That delay was going to cost Dad his life.And worse still, the internet had already broken the story that I'd been laundering money.Laura stood in front of the cameras, her eyes rimmed red."He's very controlling, and he's done a lot of terrible things to me and to Leo. But he really did help the two of us once, a long time ago.""I never imagined Mr. Chappell was this kind of person." Leo's eyes turned red. "Is it because Laura and I fell for each other that he lost control and did something like this? If I'd never fallen for her in the first place, would none of this be happening?"Laura gripped his hand tight."No. None of this is your fault."Photos of Leo's dramatic teary eyes went viral across the whole internet.A picture of Laura holding Leo's hand shot to the top of the trending list.An
