“Alright,” | relented. “See you tonight.”
After the call ended, | focused on the crisis at hand.
| began drafting my response and simultaneously contacted the lawyer handling Edith’s case to get a referral for
an attorney specializing in intedefamation.
| instructed Cherry to have our PR department gather data on the slander, compile it, and send it to Matt Cohen,
my newly hired civil case lawyer.
It was noon by the t| finished.
| published my lengthy response and tipped off a few media outlets about it.
| decided to make a quick lunch, but before | could finish eating, my phone rang off the hook.
My friends were helping spread my response across social media. They even hired bots to help combat the trolls.

family and ex were terrible people, but | had many friends who genuinely cared and helpedwithout
hesitation.
| couldn’t choose my family-and I'd sometimes made mistakes in picking acquaintances-but | had chosen my
friends, and they chose to stick by me. That alone spoke volumes about who | was as a person.
My aunt and grandmother found out what happened later, and | had to calm them down too.
Amidst the chaos, | received a message from an unknown number.
[I didn’t expect you to keep a list of every single little thing you've done. | bet you've been waiting to guilt-trip
| knew immediately who sent it, and | was disappointed.
Me: [Yeah, Edward. You should sing hymns about my amazing deeds, you ingrate. If it weren't for me, you'd be
six feet under and long forgotten. | think God made your disease cback because He took one look at how
you treated your savior and went, “Alright, what an ass.”]
There was no reply. He probably realized he wasn’t going to win this argument.

wedding?

What did Edward do for our relationship? He contributed smoney-that was all. On the eve of our wedding,
he was off with another woman, playing her hero.
Then | provided context for Sally’s actions that day. | explained Edith’s crime, but carefully avoided mentioning
the violation she endured afterward. | didn’t need to. Someone else would spread that part. Plenty of people in
our circle knew, and | knew they'd be waiting for an opportunity like this to bring it up.
That way, | wouldn't be seen as a villain in the public's eyes
Finally,
| attached receipts to support my claims-hospital records from back then, wedding planning photos, and even
pictures from the ceremony itself.
And of course, | couldn't forget the photo of Edward holding hands with Maddie on the red carpet, while | was
forced to be their witness.
