Chapter 286 The Shocking Truth
Watching Alexander holding Elizabeth, with Gavin following behind, the reporters looking at each other in astonishment. Did they really escape death just like that?
If it weren't for the man groaning in the banquet hall, the reporters would have thought it was all a dream.
"Help, help me, take me to the hospital," the man lying in a pool of blood raised his hand and pleaded with the reporters.
The reporters all avoided him.
Someone added insult to injury, "You deserve it! Just now, you were calling out to Mrs. Windsor. Anyone who didn't know would have thought you had something to do with her. People like you should have died long ago!"
The reporters were all quick to point out others' faults, never considering that they were also part of those who harmed Elizabeth.
They were all brought in by Molly to specifically ruin Elizabeth's reputation, yet at this moment, they forgot their own malice.
"Mr. Windsor told us to report the truth, so let's do it," someone reminded.
The reporters quickly sent what they had seen and the subsequent developments to their respective workplaces.
The shock on the other end was imaginable. The intense scenes leading up to that moment had generated a lot of heat, yet the outcome turned out to be like this. However, none of those entertainment companies dared to refuse to update the reports, as they all sensed the looming danger.
The netizens who had been waiting were already anxious, with many comments below, most of which were attacking Elizabeth.
[Hurry up with the follow-up report! I want to see how Elizabeth gets hacked to death!]
[It definitely wasn't public opinion that killed her. Elizabeth is shameless. She dared to bring her lover to confront the socialites. She's absolutely shameless!]
[Mr. Windsor is here! I hope he skins that shameless woman Elizabeth alive!]
[I really want to see if Elizabeth will still be so calm if Mr. Windsor shows up. Will she submit?]
So many netizens in front of their screens mostly wanted to see Elizabeth's downfall, most of them hoping Elizabeth's end would be miserable.
When the follow-up report was updated, many netizens were so excited they forgot to breathe.
[Here it is, finally!]
[This must be so thrilling!]
[Won't they strip her completely?]
[Probably!]
[I'll open it first and save the pictures immediately, just in case they disappear later. Fuck.]
[What is this?]
[Oh my God! How could this be?]
[This shameless Elizabeth, she actually is...]
[What is it? Tell me quickly, I can't see it. My internet is slow. Don't tell me she has an STD and spread it to others.]
[She is Mr. Windsor's wife!]
In an instant, the entire internet nearly crashed.
Everyone was stunned in front of their screens.
No one expected such an outcome.
The one who had been scolded the most by the public, who had always remained calm and unafraid of death, Elizabeth, turned out to be Alexander's wife.
Alexander had been in charge of the Windsor Group for six years.
In those six years, there had never been any rumors of women around him. It was said that even his secretaries were all men. Although Alexander was rich, powerful, and influential, he never played around with women.
The only woman ever acknowledged by the public was his fiancée, Clara.
No one in Sunwillow City had ever heard that Alexander had a wife.
On the screen, in the animated image, Alexander held Elizabeth with one arm, and Elizabeth's expression remained unchanged.
Half an hour ago, all the netizens thought Elizabeth's demeanor was shameless.
However, looking at Elizabeth now, they suddenly understood what it meant to remain unperturbed by honor or disgrace, to be detached, to be neither humble nor arrogant.
At this moment, they realized how proud and dignified Elizabeth was.
When Elizabeth was at a disadvantage, she knew she couldn't fight against the overwhelming slanderers, knowing that any explanation would be futile and would only bring more shame, so she silently resisted.
And now, in her husband Alexander's arms, she was saved but not arrogant in her moment of triumph.
She was very calm, to the point of admiration.
After a long while, someone made the first comment.
[Finally, I understand what it means for public opinion to kill someone. From now on, I will never believe those online news stories again. Sometimes they can really kill an innocent life. Fortunately, Mrs. Windsor has a strong heart and can remain unperturbed by honor or disgrace. If it were someone with a fragile heart, they might have died long ago. I'm sorry, I apologize.]
[Cyberbullying! Whose fault is it? I am the executioner! Sincere apologies.]
[I've been watching for over an hour and haven't said a word. I just felt something was wrong. How could there be such a woman in this world, bringing reporters to herself, bringing her lover to the scene? Are you kidding? Isn't that asking for trouble? You all followed the crowd, and it's a miracle Elizabeth wasn't wronged to death! Don't follow the crowd in the future!]
[Those seemingly noble women adorned with gold and silver are all incredibly filthy inside.]
[There are no real nobles in this world, just some vicious women who use the name of nobility to righteously commit violence against a defenseless girl. Those fake noblewomen are the ones who truly deserve to die!]
[Heartbroken for Mrs. Windsor; heartbroken to the point of tears.]
[Mr. Windsor! Kill all those vile noblewomen who maliciously attacked Mrs. Windsor. They don't deserve to live!]
[Mrs. Windsor, don't cry. I will always be your fan.]
In an instant, the comments below changed, siding with Elizabeth.
At this moment, Elizabeth was sitting in Alexander's car, scrolling through these comments on her phone, with an unchanged face.
She was on her way with Alexander to pick up Alice from kindergarten.
At the kindergarten gate, the car stopped, and Elizabeth got out. Five women immediately surrounded her.
"Mrs. Windsor," the first to speak was Susan's mother, Mira.
