Chapter 8
After finishing the work, Laila used her connections to find out a lot of useful information.
When Laila helped me deliver the divorce agreement to the hospital, Calvin was frantic.}
Victor’s condition had taken a turn for the worse, and the doctor emphasized that surgery was necessary to prevent further complications. Faced with the high surgery cost, Calvin contacted the treasurer that night to borrow money.
However, he had already received my message and rejected his request, “Mr. Holmes, the company’s funds can only be used for production and operation. You need to go through the loan process, or I can’t do anything about it.“>
In Calvin’s eyes, this was his company. How could he be refused?}
The treasurer kindly suggested him, “Mr. Holmes, there are many lending platforms now. If you need money urgently, you can go to a platform. With your qualifications, you should be able to borrow a lot.”
Calvin immediately understood his meaning.
But he persisted in asking me for help, “Wendy, can you give me three hundred thousand dollars? I need it urgently!“}
I responded, “Are you kidding me? Did you not receive the divorce agreement or do you think I’m an ATM machine?”
Calvin continued, “Victor is waiting for money to save his life. We can’t just stand by and watch him die!“}
He said that again. He wanted to save his son. What did it have to do with me?}
I retorted, “Are you out of your mind? They indirectly killed my son, and you still have the nerve to ask me for money? Who would be such a good person? Could it be that Victor is your son?”
Calvin panicked and hurriedly denied, “Please don’t say such nonsense. I just lost our child, and now I see Victor is dying. I can’t bear it. Why do you say it differently?”
Calvin was actually blaming me.
I said, “Then do a paternity test. If he’s not your son, I’m willing to pay for it.”
Calvin fell silent, and then Olive called out, “Victor!“}
Calvin had to hang up the phone, “How can you be so cruel?”
He was trying to blame me.
In terms of cruelty, he was crueler than me.
I didn’t want to give him the money. I’m not going to take his life.
The next day, Victor was pushed into the operating room.
Calvin couldn’t tolerate the thought of not saving his son.

But he shouldn’t have tried to get me into trouble.}
He went behind my back, using our joint name to take out an online loan.
The forged signature on the contract was convincing.
On the third day, the paternity test results came out.
On the fourth day, I made the videos related to the fire popular.
The counterattack officially began.}
The lawyer took my handwriting identification to the online loan company, which promptly launched a background check on Calvin.
With rio assets to repay the loan, they gave him a deadline to settle the debt or face fraud charges.
Calvin used all the money for Victor’s surgery and had no money to pay back.
Besides, Calvin had invested all his personal money in that small company, and he had almost lost all his money!
Calvin, who was desperate, was afraid that I would know, so he had to secretly forge my power of attorney, spend money to make a fake notarization, and then go to the bank to apply for a mortgage loan.
He loved Olive and Victor so much and was willing to break the law for them.
During this period, Calvin was too busy to handle everything.”
I didn’t answer his phone, and he was happy to serve the mother and son.
Even the media reported his rescue efforts.
Our prior conversation, where I refused to give him life–saving money, went viral online, and the public branded me the villain.
The whole Internet called him a great man and scolded me on his behalf.
Neighbors who tried to defend me were dismissed as paid Internet trolls I had hired.”
Calvin reveled in his heroic image.
Olive moved to live broadcasting, capitalizing on their tragic story.”
