Chapter 275 The Orphanage Director
When Magnus held up his blood donation certificate and revealed the truth about his recent struggles and false accusations, the onlookers' opinions began to waver. Before Magnus spoke, the public's knowledge of the situation was limited, and they were unaware that Magnus was an orphan who had only reunited with his parents a few months ago.
His elderly parents, his paralyzed older brother, and his young niece all depended on him. Such responsibilities were not easy to bear, and only a true man could handle them. Magnus had shouldered this immense burden, yet his own family had betrayed him.
As the crowd's sentiments shifted, Tobias loudly interjected, "Don't listen to him! He's just seeking sympathy. My granddaughter has already said that he took advantage of her, even kissing and touching her."
"Yes, I did kiss and touch her," Magnus admitted. His voice was unwavering. "As a child's uncle, I kissed her forehead to show encouragement and touched her cheek to express affection. Is that considered inappropriate? Just because I'm not Serenity's biological father, does that make my actions wrong? Which four or five-year-old child isn't showered with love and affection by their family?"
Indeed, in today's world, every child was cherished and adored by their family. A kiss or a hug is a normal display of affection. In reality, the online accusations were merely based on these actions, without any substantial evidence of Magnus's wrongdoing.
If there was any fault on Magnus's part, it was that he was not Serenity's biological father, making him an easy target for misinterpretation.
Jett, overcome with emotion, accused, "You're lying! You've been bullying my daughter all along, you beast, and now you're trying to defend yourself."
"You're the real beast," Magnus retorted. He was unable to contain his anger. "Both you and Tobias are greedy, selfish, and heartless. The money you spent on medical check-ups in New York was all mine. You lived in my house, ate my food, and now you want to ruin me. You asked me for money to buy a house and find a wife. It's only natural that a parasite like you ends up paralyzed. Serenity's unfortunate to have a father like you. You can't even take care of yourself, yet you want to bring harm to others by seeking a wife."
Magnus's words struck Jett's nerves. Tobias was about to say something, but Magnus immediately cut him off. "I used to have some illusions about you and hoped for a harmonious family. But now I see clearly. I wasn't lost as a child; you sold me. You sold me and your other five children for money. You're not worthy of being called a father."
Magnus's revelation led to a wave of condemnation from the neighbors. Indeed, Tobias was not fit to be a father. It was unbelievable that there were parents who would sell their children. After venting his accumulated anger, Magnus instructed the bodyguards to escort Jett and Tobias out, completely removing them from his life.
Meanwhile, Ophe began to work on restoring Magnus's reputation online. She presented all the evidence. The ugly truth behind Tobias and Jett's accusations was finally exposed.
Child trafficking, exploitation, and the absurdity of trying to sell off their own son's property were all revealed. The villagers could testify to Tobias's actions, and Finnegan had even sent people to Tobias's hometown to gather evidence.
One person could lie, but could dozens of people all be lying?
Ophe also exposed Tobias's malicious intent and revealed that his accusations against Magnus were motivated by a desire to buy a villa. Relatives came forward online to confirm that Tobias had indeed mentioned his plans to buy a house in his hometown.
Ophe also provided evidence of Magnus's upbringing in the orphanage, including testimonials from the orphanage director and teachers, proving that Magnus had always been a good and kind-hearted child.
The truth video obtained from Serenity was also uploaded online, providing enough evidence to clear Magnus's name.
After completing all of this, Ophe breathed a sigh of relief. She would never let anyone harm her family.
The online public opinion overwhelmingly sided with Magnus. Of course, there were also sympathizers for Tobias and Jett, but they were immediately met with backlash.
"If you sympathize with them, then you should support them. Don't just pay lip service."
"Magnus is truly pitiful. His parents sold him from a young age, and he has been searching for family and recognition, only to be met with a group of vampires."
"Magnus is a real man. If it were me, I would have long stopped indulging those vampire parents. They are not good people."
"Exactly. As parents, they only care about giving birth, not about raising their children. They don't know what's good for them."
"Not everyone is fit to be a parent."
The online discussion sparked a significant response, with unexpected turns of events. Natalie also saw the trending topic and looked into it from different perspectives. She discovered that Ophe and Magnus had both come from the same orphanage. The address of the orphanage was also available online.
