Sue added, "Yes, my parents scraped together every penny for my education because of my cousin."

In their desperate pursuit of victory, they no longer cared about making sense.

"Heartless beast!"

"Shameless scum!"

Suddenly, eggs were hurled at Nina, landing right in front of her.

Nina glanced over and saw a group of twelve people at the gate, holding eggs and vegetable leaves, all throwing them in her direction.

She quickly raised her hands to shield herself.

Witnessing this, the security personnel rushed to intervene.

"Why are you protecting her? She's just a heartless widow who breaks up other people's families! A mere secretary, nothing more than a mistress to others!" one of the egg-throwers shouted.

Nina realized that the situation was more serious than she had expected, and it seemed that they had come prepared. When Lily arrived at her door with people throwing things at her, it appeared to be orchestrated.

Looking at Lily's smug expression, it was clear that she wanted Nina to give in, hoping that she would succumb to the pressure of public opinion and repay their family.

The reporters did not shy away from the severity of the situation, asking, "Ms. Walker, is what they're saying true? Have you been involved in breaking up several families as a mistress?"

Nina felt fury inside. Their ruthless tactics and the reporters' mindless questions were infuriating. But she knew that she had to remain composed. Losing her temper would only validate their accusations. "Stop those dozen people!" Nina said coldly. "You've captured them on camera. I will hold each of them accountable for laying a hand on me."

"Understood, Ms. Walker," the security replied, surrounding the individuals involved.

Upon grasping the gravity of the situation and understanding the potential consequences, they chose not to instigate any further trouble. Nina gathered herself, preparing to confront the reporters and address the concerns that the online community had expressed about her.

She inquired, "You mentioned the amount of money you invested in my education. Do you have a detailed record of these expenses?"

Lily responded, "How could I possibly have such a thing?"

Adding to the conversation, Sue chimed in, "My mother treated you as if you were her own daughter. She put in tremendous effort to raise you. Why would there be a need for a detailed record?" Nina scoffed, "As if I were her own daughter? Is this how you treat your own daughter, by tarnishing her reputation in front of the media?"

"We had no other choice," Sue attempted to explain.

Nina continued, "Empty words. I could also argue that over the years, you have spent a substantial amount of our family's money. Whenever a problem arises, you come knocking at our door, expecting us to clean up the mess. When you don't receive the assistance you desire, you resort to spreading rumors. Just the other day, my dad became so furious that he fell and broke his bone, and now you're standing here in front of the reporters!"

"That's absurd! You're just speaking nonsense!" Lily vehemently rejected the accusations.

Nina found the situation ludicrous. "So what you're saying is true, but what I'm saying is nonsense?"

The online community was not easily deceived; they had simply been led astray. When confronted with baseless allegations, the discussions became more subdued, and individuals became less inclined to voice their opinions, remaining in a state of skepticism.

Nina was unhappy with the reporter because of her biased questioning.

"Excuse me," Nina said to her, "I am not a public figure. Your careless filming and unprofessional questions have already caused me psychological distress, and I will hold you responsible!"

The reporter suspected that Nina might have some tabloid-worthy news that would generate attention. Moreover, this wasn't the first time she had heard people say that her pursuit of news outweighed her professional ethics.

Persistently, she pressed on, "Ms. Walker, you still haven't addressed my question. Have you ever engaged in an affair? And are you currently causing harm to your aunt and cousin?" "My daughter has never engaged in such behavior!"
