Julian smirked. "Does defending someone require having a relationship with them first? What if I defended a beggar on the street? Do I have to be dating them too?"Victoria grew furious as her husband kept driving her into a corner. "Okay, if it were anyone else, maybe that wouldn't make sense. But this is your sister-in-law. Why do you always protect her?"The corner of Julian’s lip ticked upward. "Because I know the difference between right and wrong. Why would I defend a bunch of hypocrites?""You'd all better watch your step! Today I'm feeling generous enough not to drag you straight to prison for all the stupidity you've pulled," Julian hissed, punctuating his final sentence with absolute, unyielding finality.With that, the man walked out of the house. Elena had already slipped away earlier while Julian was defending her.The second the front door clicked shut, Victoria’s fragile composure completely shattered.

Julian’s jaw instantly locked. A lethal flash of pure rage scorched his eyes. "That foolish woman has completely lost her mind." Elena, lying beside him and facing his direction, flushed deep red from their successive rounds of intimacy, now wore an expression of rising anxiety. She noticed the drastic, terrifying shift in Julian’s features. Seeing the panic clouding his little bunny’s face, Julian softened his hand. He wrapped an arm around Elena’s bare shoulders and stroked her cheek with deliberate gentleness to calm her. Yet, the tone he used when speaking into his phone didn't drop a single degree of its cruelty. "Listen to me very carefully, Leon," Julian commanded, his voice dripping with frost. "I am not going to waste a single second of my time dealing with trash like her." "Then what about the chaos in the lobby, sir? Reporters are starting to record everything,

That night, while the entire city was fast asleep, an invisible storm began spreading through the students' communication networks.Incessant incoming message notifications flooded dozens of campus group chats and messaging apps. Sofia set her plan into motion, using a secondary account.She uploaded the blurred photos into her year's group chat, the faculty group, and anonymous student discussion forums.The photos spread like a deadly plague.Sofia: Look at this, everyone! Elena Thorne's innocent look is just a mask! She's actually a kept woman!Student A: Wow, seriously? Aren't those photos taken inside a luxury apartment?Sofia: One hundred percent true! And want to know what's even worse? The man in that photo is her own step-sister's husband! She stole her sister's husband just to live a lavish lifestyle!Student B: Insane! No wonder she's been getting picked up by luxury cars lately!Student C: Cheap slut! She's

Julian did not panic. Instead, he casually tossed the tablet onto the sofa.A cold, terrifying smile carved its way across his handsome face."Victoria thinks she's won this game by leaking those photos to the campus," Julian hissed."Sir?""My divorce proceedings with Victoria will be officially heard the day after tomorrow," Julian said, his tone laced with intrigue."Let public opinion burn to a crisp."Julian walked over to the large glass window, which offered a high-rise view of the city skyline."Leon, gather all the morning's campus CCTV footage. Find the identity of a female student named Sofia, and everyone who threw objects at Elena.""It's already being processed, sir. The IT team is tracking the accounts that first leaked the photos.""Good," Julian replied, his voice deadpan."The day after tomorrow in court, I won't just divorce Victoria. I'm going to destroy

"Not just embezzlement," Julian continued coldly."Victoria used a shell account under her mother Beatrice's name to funnel those funds to prop up the Thorne Group's nearly bankrupt debts.She committed banking crimes, forged my signature on asset transfer documents, and engaged in money laundering."Alvin stroked his chin, his eyes flashing with deep admiration for the meticulous trap orchestrated by his client."Incredible. You purposely let these transactions slide over the past two years just to use them as your trump card?""I let her feel like she was winning," Julian replied with a devilish smirk."She thought I was clueless. Yet every single cent she stole was just another nail driven straight into her own coffin."Julian then tapped his finger against the table. "Now, what about the incident on campus this morning?"Leon immediately stepped in. "We've secured high-resolution CCTV footage
