A world 29

Chapter 22 

Backstage at the press conference. 

Carissa’s arm was scratched by Madilyn, leaving several scars. 

Melvin comforted her while he quickly tended to her wound. 

They didn’t realize something was wrong until Emma’s phone rang. 

The video of today’s press conference somehow got leaked onto the internet. 

The video editing was very clever. 

The contrast between the haggard and pitiful Madilyn and the elegantly dressed Carissa sitting on the stage was striking. 

Especially, the sight of the frail and weak Madilyn being dragged out of the scene by the security guards in a disheveled state further fueled public outrage. 

Without hesitation, all the netizens leaned towards Madilyn’s side. 

They stormed the internet in 

anger. 

“Down with the mistress! How dare a mistress be so arrogant!” 

“Did you have no mother to teach you not to destroy other people’s families? How disgusting!” 

“Bastard! Everyone at the press conference apologized to Ms. Archer. The mistress, get out and apologize to Ms. Archer!” 

Melvin suppressed his anger and put away his phone to comfort Carissa. 

“Come, I will take you back first. You don’t have to worry, I will help you solve this matter. I will not 

go.” let the person behind this 

Carissa also knew that it was not the time to dwell on past sorrows, so she followed Melvin and walked out through the safe passage. 

The two of them had just reached the door when they collided with a flustered Warren. 

“Carie, I didn’t do this, I had no idea Madilyn would come here, do you believe me? I really had no idea she would dare to slander you…‘

He walked over eagerly, wanting to hold Carissa’s hand. 

However, before he could even meet Carissa, he was coldly pushed away by Melvin.

“You dare to come again? If it weren’t for you, how could Carle have gone through such a thin 

Warren knew he was in the wrong, but he stubbornly insisted on explaining 

“Carle, listen to me, I really didn’t know she would do such a thing, believe me…” 

When he saw the video of the press conference and the intense remarks from netizens online. 

Warren felt as if a big hole had been torn open in his chest. 

He couldn’t imagine how upset Carissa would be when she saw those comments. 

However, what scared him even more was that Carissa would misunderstand this matter and think it was related to him. 

Carissa looked at him calmly. 

“I knew it wasn’t you who did it.” 

As the words fell, Warren suddenly lifted his head, and a gleam of delight burst from his eyes. 

Carie actually believed him! 

Does this prove that she forgave him? 

He was so excited that he could hardly speak. 

However, the next second, Carissa shattered all his fantasies in his heart. 

“But the evidence she used to spread rumors about me was given by you, so Warren, you are not entirely innocent in this matter either.” 

After saying that, she grabbed Melvin’s hand and turned away without hesitation. 

Warren stood still in place, his lips trembling, but he couldn’t utter a word to stop her. 

I could only watch helplessly as Carissa walked further and further away… 

The discussion about this matter on the internet was becoming increasingly intense at that time. 

“I exposed it! Carissa followed Madilyn and her husband to attend our class reunion. At that time, I felt something was wrong because the two of them were exchanging glances during the gathering. I never expected that she was actually the mistress!” 

“How dare Carissa, she even dares to bully the main character as a mistress?” 

“Carissa rolled out and knelt down to apologize to Ms. Archer!”

And finally, Madilyn’s posting of the marriage certificate on the Internet completely confirmed the fact that Carissa was the mistress. 

The public opinion escalated, and that night, Warren received a notification from the company. 

The boss angrily warned him that if he didn’t handle his personal matters well, he would be told to pack up and leave directly. 

Warren struggled for a full six years to reach the position he is in today. 

He never imagined that a slight hesitation on his part would eventually lead to this situation… 

The ringing of the mobile phone brought his thoughts back. 

Seeing the name jumping on the screen, Warren gritted his teeth and spoke. 

“Madilyn, who gave you the audacity to defame her? Clarify this matter immediately now, or don’t 

blame me for exposing everything you have done!” 

And at this moment, Madilyn had long lost her sanity. 

She took a desperate gamble and risked everything to bring Carissa down. 

“Warren, now we are like fleas on a rope. As long as you push everything onto Carissa, I will cooperate with you to clarify the situation. With regards to our future and your ex–girlfriend, you are a smart person, you should know how to make the right choice, right?” 

As the words fell, Warren tightly gripped his phone, with veins pulsating on his temples.
