Chapter 15
“Mira, your family’s drama was the top trending story overnight. MVN Radiowave Network and our campus forum have completely blown up.
Netizens are all condemning that schemer now. Isn’t that great p>
“Now, that schemer in your family is a social pariah p>
Liora and Celine hovered by Mira’s bed, chattering away like two excited songbirds.
This didn’t surprise Mira. In her last life, the Mercer family’s affairs had also become a trending topic.
Except back then, she was the one being vilified. Now, the tables had turned.
“I have you two to thank for this outcome p>
“It’s not just us. The guests from last night deserve a lot of credit too.
Everyone is shocked by the level of that schemer’s manipulation p>
Speaking of which, Liora was so happy she was practically dancing.
“However, your family is already doing damage control. Your Damon’s PR department is also trying to suppress the story.
Early this morning, a lot of paid trolls started defending Mara.
But the power of the people is strong. For every one comment they post, a hundred more pop up to refute it. They won’t be able to shut it down that easily p>
Mira thought back to her past life when she was attacked by public opinion. Not a single person from the Mercer family had stepped in to stop it. It was truly pathetic how little she’d been valued.
As the three of them were talking and laughing, there was a knock on the door. It was Lacey, carrying breakfast.
“Mira, it’s time to eat p>
“No thanks, I’ve already eaten p>
Mira pointed to the containers. “Liora’s mother specially made me chicken soup and oatmeal and brought it over this morning p>
Lacey looked at Liora and Celine.
The two quickly said, “We’ll go ask the doctor what time you need to take your medicine this afternoon. Call us if you need anything. We won’t be far p>
Although Liora and Celine felt indignant on their friend’s behalf, they knew it wasn’t their place to interfere in a conversation between a mother and daughter.
“Actually, Mom wanted to come over sooner p>
“I know. Mara was upset, and you couldn’t leave her side, right p>
Mira finished Lacey’s sentence for her.
“You should go back to her before she starts calling for you. My two friends are more than enough for me p>
Mira said with a dismissive pout.
Lacey looked embarrassed. “Mira, Mom knows I’ve neglected you recently. I’m sorry p>
“Don’t bother. You knew you were doing something wrong, but you did it anyway, didn’t you?
Is your ‘sorry’ even useful p>
“But Mira, she’s your sister. She was lost to us for seventeen years. We only just found her p>
“What does that have to do with me p>
“How can you be like this, child?
We are a family. Even if she’s done wrong, we should be tolerant and understanding of each other p>
“The other day, when Mara was
bet
framing me, I don’t recall you saying
anything
about being a fami
or
being tolerant p>
“That day, Mom was just so angry she lost her head. I’m sorry, it won’t happen again p>
“Aren’t you angry that Mara framed me?
If I hadn’t proven my innocence last
night,
situation now would be
Se than hers. Would any
of
you have stood up for stood up for me?
Lacey paused for a moment. “Angry, of course I’m angry. We would have defended
you.
But ultimately, we owe her so much, and her health is so poor p>
“So you’re saying you don’t owe me anything, which means she can bully me as much as she wants?
And since I’m healthy and tough, you can punish me however you please p>
How did this child become like this? She used to be so understanding.
“We’ve been biased toward her recently and neglected your feelings. We’ll be more careful in the future p>
After all, Mira had once been the child they cherished. But ever since Mara arrived, their hearts had shifted.
That child was frail and pitiful. They just wanted to make it up to her. Was that so wrong?
“No matter what, we’re still family. Blood is thicker than water.
You’ve seen the comments online about your sister, haven’t you?
It’s seriously damaged her
reputation, made her life dit net
and it’s even affecting the company’s stock price p>
