Chapter 714 The Public’s Suspicions

Sonia’s words made sense to the crowd. It was a fact that Jessica had been making claims without providing any evidence to the public. No one knew whether what she said was the truth or not. All she had given the public were words, after all.

As long as she hadn’t produced any evidence, it meant that no one could determine the validity of her statements. If the truth couldn’t be proven, why would Jessica continue to emphasize that Sonia had done something wrong?

Previously, the crowd hadn’t realized what was going on. However, after they heard what Sonia said, they realized that her words had some truth to it. It did seem like Jessica was doing all the talking in order to brainwash them and make them believe that Sonia had done something bad. Then, Jessica got the public to point their fingers at Sonia, so that everyone would label Sonia as the illegitimate daughter and evil sister who bullied Jessica.

Once the public realized this, they also realized that they no longer knew who was the evil person in that situation. Even if Sonia had actually done bad things, the public could tell that Jessica was no innocent saint either.

At that thought, many of the reporters and audiences turned to Jessica with looks of astonishment on their faces. One reporter broke the silence to ask Jessica a question. “Miss Jessica, since you claimed that Miss Reed has bullied you and your mother since you were a child, you probably have some evidence, right?”

“Yeah. You also mentioned that Miss Reed isn’t your father’s biological daughter, but you didn’t provide us any solid proof for that. If you can’t give us any evidence of this, and if you can’t prove that your father’s ex-wife had Sonia with another man, then we have enough reason to question your motives! Would we be wrong to suspect that you’re harming Miss Reed intentionally because you’re displeased by the fact that she has more shares than you?’ one reporter cried.

“That’s right, Miss Jessica. Please explain yourself. If you can’t provide us with sturdy evidence, then whatever you said online can be considered as defamation. You’d have to face the consequences of the law.”

When Jessica saw all the reporters turning to interrogate her, she felt her chest heaving up and down as her eyes turned red. She had been sneakily enjoying herself while the reporters interrogated Toby and Sonia just moments ago, and she hadn’t expected the tables to turn so quickly.

Unfortunately, Jessica didn’t have the evidence that the public wanted. “Why aren’t you answering us, Miss Jessica? Are you hiding something?” The reporters began to question Jessica when they saw her staying silent. Even the online audiences discussed it in the livestream chat.

 

‘Did you see that? Miss Jessica sure looks frantic when she’s questioned by the reporters,’ one commented.

‘I don’t think she’s frantic. I think that’s a look of guilt on her face. My brother always looks like that when he does something wrong and doesn’t want to admit it. I know that expression too well,’ another one replied.

 

‘Are you saying that there’s something wrong with Miss Jessica?’ someone asked.

‘Of course! I’m 100 percent sure that what Jessica said was a lie. If it were true, why wouldn’t she give us evidence? She could have given her evidence to the police after reporting about this online yesterday. Yet, she didn’t take any action or show any evidence—all she did was whine on the Internet. A normal person wouldn’t do that, would they?”

‘You’re right. I would’ve made a police report if I were Jessica,’ another one replied.

Although Jessica couldn’t see the comments that were being written about her in the live stream, she could tell from the demeanors of the reporters that the situation online probably wasn’t looking too good for her. With her fists clenched and her eyes darting around anxiously, Jessica attempted to reply to the reporters. “It’s true that I don’t have evidence of Sonia bullying me. After all, I mentioned that this happened when I was young. How am I supposed to find evidence for my childhood incidents?”
