Corinne frowned and calmly looked at the group of people surrounding her. She did not panic, eventhough she did not understand what was happening. “Why are you all taking pictures of me? Pleasedelete them now. You have no right to take pictures of me.”

The group of people threw dirty glares at her.

“What do you know about rights?”

“How can she be so shameless? Look at the way she’s leisurely drinking her Coke after screwingothers over.”

“She’s a bad seed, alright. She probably doesn’t even know what empathy means.”

“I agree. She’s not fit to be called a human.”

Corinne did not know what they were talking about. She wanted to let them have a taste of their ownmedicine, so she dug deep inside her pocket to look for her phone, only to remember that her phonewas still with Jeremy.

She remained calm even without her phone. “People, have you mistaken me for someone? I’m neitheran influencer nor a celebrity, so why are you taking pictures of me?” she said staidly.

“Nope, we’re pretty sure we got the right person. You’re definitely the girl we’re talking about. A youngpretty girl who is out and about scamming other people.”

‘Scamming other people? When did I ever do such a thing?” thought Corinne.

“Look at how bewildered she is. She sure has honed her acting skill over the years.”

“She should consider being an actress instead. Who knows, she might even win an Oscar.”

Corinne became more and more confused. “I don’t know any of you. Can someone please just explainto me why all of you are taking pictures of me?”

An indignant onlooker in the front row turned his phone screen toward her and said, “Find out foryourself. Can you honestly tell us that the young girl teaming up with the old man in this videoscamming other people isn’t you?”

There was a video playing on the onlooker’s phone. The video showed the scene of her coming acrossa blind old man when she was leaving the embankment of Yonder River that night.

The blind old man was stuck on a part of the tactile paving that was blocked by a car. She went to helphim out of the kindness of her heart, but the blind old man was so angry at how inconsiderate the driverof the car was that he did not hesitate to smash up the car with his cane.

Then, the blind old man got into an argument with the driver who happened to be the purple–hairedfemale influencer. Corinne could not stand it anymore, so she went to help the old man, but the purple–haired female influencer deliberately pretended to be a victim. She live–streamed the whole thing andlied to everyone, saying that she was the victim.

Her stream did not go viral on the day it happened, but the video was re–released online after beingheavily edited to skew the context. It ended up being the blind old man deliberately crashing into thepurple–haired female influencer’s car and asking for compensation with the help of Corinne.

Moreover, only the blind old man’s face was blurred out in the video. The purple–haired femaleinfluencer had no need to blur out her face because it was a live stream with her identity disclosed.However, only Corinne’s face seemed to have been magnified to an ultra–clear close–up so much that

each and every one of her pores could be clearly seen. It was no wonder strangers could recognize herat a glance.

‘Who edited and uploaded this video?‘ wondered Corinne. She remembered Lucas confiscated thepurple–haired female influencer’s phone so that he could use that to prove Corinne had indeed beencolluding with Chris. The phone was then turned into the police’s possession after the case was closed.

‘Was Lucas the one who edited and posted the video to slander me? Did he do it to make Anya feelbetter? If so, that’s really despicable of him. Ha! I can’t believe he’ll do this to a person who has helpedhis grandfather. He’s beyond ungrateful. The Rivera family is nothing but a bunch of hypocrites!‘thought Corinne.

Suddenly, a male onlooker picked up a cup of Coke and threw it at her. “You shameless woman! Howdare you pick on Xena? How dare you screw over my favorite influencer?”

Everyone clapped when the Coke splashed against Corinne’s body.

“Yeah, how could you do that Xena? Don’t you know that she’s an inspiration to many? Because ofwhat happened, she lost everything and was so traumatized that she said she’s going to quit being aninfluencer!”
