After Nina left, Declan’s life became a desolate wasteland.Â
Every word from Nina’s final message and those shocking photos of her injuries tormented him day andÂ
night.Â
Twenty–eight–year–old Declan’s cold “teach her a lesson” and the blurry figures of his hired thugs made it impossible for him to stay calm anymore.Â
He decided to ignore twenty–eight–year–old Declan’s warnings and began secretly investigating.Â
Nina was too innocent and kind to drive Ruby to suicide.Â
Sure enough, he discovered security footage from the hospital that day. From start to finish, it was Ruby forcing Nina to leave, while Nina said nothing. Not long after, Ruby’s eyes flashed with malice before sheÂ
turned and jumped into the campus artificial lake.Â
Regret and rage consumed him instantly. Declan let out an agonized whimper, fingernails digging deep crescents into his palms.Â
Remembering Nina’s final message with its calm–to–the–point–of–despair tone, he realized that wasn’tÂ
stubbornness–it was complete heartbreak.Â
He grabbed the surveillance recordings and stormed home.Â
To better care for Ruby, twenty–eight–year–old Declan had moved her into his house.Â
In the living room, Ruby was lounging on the couch eating fruit. Seeing Declan come in, her faceÂ
immediately showed a fragile smile.Â
‘Declan, you’re back-”Â
Before she could finish, Declan shoved his phone in her face, voice ice–cold: “What’s THIS… Nina never forced you to jump in that lake, did she? This whole thing–you SET HER UP!”Â
Ruby’s face went deathly pale, her smile freezing.Â
Looking at Declan’s bloodshot eyes, she trembled all over: “It’s not like that… Declan, let me explain…”Â
“Not like that?”Â
Declan violently swept everything off the coffee table, glass shattering with ear–piercing crashes.Â

He leaned down, staring at her intently: “I’ve got ALL the security footage. You better tell me the TRUTH…”Â
With that, he played the surveillance video–ironclad evidence right in front of her, leaving Ruby no way toÂ
argue.Â
She broke down sobbing, her voice shrill with desperation: “YES! I did it on PURPOSE! I jumped in myself because I HATE her! I’m JEALOUS of her! Why does she get all your love and attention?! Why do I have to hide in the shadows like some ghost?! I just wanted you to feel sorry for me and hate her more… I just wanted you to stay with me forever!”Â
Hearing her confess to her crimes, Declan felt the world spin, his stomach churning violently.Â
So he’d been deceived by that innocent face from the very beginning!Â
Remembering how he’d abandoned Nina again and again for this vicious woman, hurting her repeatedly, even indirectly causing her to endure ninety–nine blows, endless regret engulfed him.Â
“GET OUT…” He pointed to the door, voice shaking with rage.Â
“Ruby, from now on, don’t ever let me see you again!”Â
Watching Ruby flee in panic, he decided to expose her true nature to the world!Â
Without hesitation, he packaged all the evidence and posted it directly to Metro University’s public forum and class group chats, even contacting reporters he knew.Â
Soon, the internet was flooded with contempt and disgust for Ruby.Â
Ruby was expelled from Metro University.Â
She didn’t dare go out or look at her phone. Everywhere she went, she faced scornful, hateful stares.Â
Everyone who used to surround her quickly distanced themselves, avoiding her like the plague.Â
Her reputation was completely destroyed–she became synonymous with malice and lies.Â
And after completing this public trial, Declan returned home alone.Â
“Use whatever means necessary to help me find Nina!”Â
After hanging up, he collapsed on the floor, listening to that brutal recording over and over, staring at the photos Nina had sent, his heart breaking beyond repair as tears poured out.Â
He finally knew the whole truth, but he’d lost her forever.Â
The damage he’d caused Nina might never be fixable.Â
