Chapter 340 Breaking Big News
Elizabeth had a knack for picking up on emotions. Even over the phone, she could sense Amy's deep-seated malice. Amy wasn't just dumb; she was downright nasty. No wonder she and Brenda got along so well—they were two peas in a pod.
With a casual tone, Elizabeth said, "Even if you gift-wrap Eugene and pay me to take him, I wouldn't want him. So, don't worry about that. And if you want to cause me trouble, go ahead and try."
She sneered, "I was too lazy to deal with you before, but you just had to poke the bear. Seems like the last lesson didn't stick, so don't blame me for what's coming."
Originally, Elizabeth had planned to use the King Family's Generational Blessings to bring some bad luck their way after the variety show. But Amy's threats and provocations made her change her mind.
Amy's face fell, sensing trouble. "What are you planning to do?"
Elizabeth replied, "Just wait and see. This is all on you; you've got no one else to blame." With that, she hung up, not giving Amy a chance to respond.
Elizabeth knew people like Amy were too full of themselves. Over the years, Orlando had spoiled her, making her even more foolish. Orlando's tactic might have worked, but Elizabeth wasn't Orlando; she didn't have the patience to coddle Amy. People like Amy needed a reality check. She needed to learn who she could mess with and who she couldn't.
Elizabeth got up, found Arthur, and borrowed a laptop. Back in her room, she started hacking into the King Family's company. Sure enough, she found a ton of incriminating evidence.
There had been online rumors about the King Family's shady dealings, but no solid proof. Without evidence, it was impossible to take them down. Now, she was going to change that.
She also dug up dirt on several of Amy's nieces and nephews. Then she hacked into Caleb's Facebook account and made a post.
Caleb: [I can't stand the King Family getting away with so much crap, so today I'm doing a good deed. Here are the leaks and evidence, you're welcome!]
She posted all the dirt on the King Family members along with the evidence. Then she changed Caleb's Facebook password so they couldn't log in and delete the post. She also wiped all traces from the computer, making them unrecoverable. Only then did she return the laptop to Arthur.
If Amy wanted to play dirty, Elizabeth would make sure she was too busy to handle it. Let Amy see the consequences of messing with her. Amy valued the King Family so much; with them getting into trouble left and right, she'd be freaking out.
The King Family members were all scumbags. With this evidence, the company would definitely go under, and they'd end up in jail. At that point, Amy would be their only hope. Given their nature, they'd cling to Amy desperately. That would be enough to drive her nuts.
Later, when Orlando kicked Amy out, she'd have to choose between ditching her families or being exploited by them.
Plus, Elizabeth found herself disgusted by the King Family. They'd never done a good deed, only bad ones. Caleb, in particular, was worse than an animal. So exposing and taking down the King Family not only ensured they got what they deserved but also prevented them from hurting innocent people.
Because of the live broadcast, the day's events were a hot topic online. Caleb's Facebook was flooded with insults. When people saw the sudden post from Caleb, they were shocked and rushed to check it out.
It didn't take long for them to realize a hacker, who had a grudge against the King Family, had used Caleb's account to spill all their dirty secrets.
In addition to the King Family company's illegal activities, there were plenty of stories about the family members themselves.
Before Amy married into the Baker Family, the King Family lived in a small town. Ada was a notorious troublemaker who loved taking advantage of others. Her two sons were hooligans who often caused trouble and sometimes even joined Ada in extorting out-of-town drivers on the village road. Steven was a well-known gambler and drunkard. Their family was infamous locally, and everyone avoided them.
After Amy used her charm to marry into the Baker Family, the King Family started to prosper. Moving to Clifftonshireburg only made them more arrogant and domineering. From the oldest to the youngest, they never did any good deeds and committed plenty of bad ones.
Elizabeth also dug up dirt on Amy's past. For instance, Amy had hung out with street thugs from a young age and even had an abortion. Relying on her two thug brothers, she bullied many classmates she didn't get along with. In college, she framed a roommate, nearly driving her to suicide.
Amy had used the Baker Family's money and connections to clean up many messes for the King Family. The accumulated disgusting deeds of the King Family shocked netizens. The King Family members were all bad people, including Amy.
While everyone cursed the King Family, they couldn't help but marvel at how blind Orlando must have been to cherish a woman as wicked as Amy for so many years. Of course, besides wondering, they also cursed Orlando.
After all, if it weren't for the support of the Baker Family, Amy wouldn't have been able to so brazenly assist the King Family, giving them the audacity to become increasingly arrogant and reckless in their actions.
Soon, the Facebook post went viral. Amy and Orlando were also trending for being cursed. After Elizabeth hung up on her, Amy couldn't help but feel inexplicably panicked, so she kept an eye on the online news.
When she saw Caleb's Facebook post and its content, she was stunned. She never expected her family's past to be dug up. She panicked even more.
Her two brothers' company's incriminating evidence was all posted. Not only would the company be shut down, but her two brothers might also go to jail. The other family members' deeds were also exposed. Even if they didn't go to jail, they would become public enemies.
What made Amy tremble with anger was that her youthful indiscretions were also exposed. In her naive youth, she had thought it was fun to hang out with thugs. She had even had an abortion due to lack of precautions.
Later, she saw TV shows about commoners marrying into wealthy families and couldn't help but yearn for it. She thought she was pretty and smart, so if others could do it, so could she. So she stopped hanging out with outsiders and studied hard, eventually getting into Clifftonshireburg University, where she met the man she truly loved, became hopelessly infatuated with him.
In the end, she successfully married Orlando, who, despite not being her true love, adored her to the point of obsession, thus becoming a wealthy lady. She had deliberately forgotten those past events. Now that they were exposed, she felt her privacy had been completely violated.
Amy let out a scream filled with hatred, "Elizabeth, you bitch, it's war between us."
She didn't believe the online revelations were unrelated to Elizabeth. She had just called to threaten Elizabeth, and Elizabeth had told her to "wait and see." Not long after, so much was exposed online. She was sure it was Elizabeth's doing.
But she couldn't understand how Elizabeth had done it. Did Elizabeth hire someone to investigate? However, it couldn't have been this fast!
At the same time, she regretted making that call to Elizabeth, which had angered her deeply. In her memory, Elizabeth was nothing more than a lowly woman clinging to Eugene. Even though Elizabeth was later recognized by the Clark Family, she still favored and had more faith in Brenda, thus opposing Eugene's relationship with Elizabeth.
When Elizabeth left the Clark Family, she felt a sense of schadenfreude. Therefore, she never imagined that Elizabeth would truly retaliate and cause her such significant trouble. Now, with so much information being exposed online, she had no idea how to resolve it.
Her first reaction was to find Orlando and have him fix it, but she still couldn't reach him. Desperately, Amy could only send a message to a stranger's number.
