The Billionaire’s Regretful Obsession – Victoria Hale

Chapter 253 The Verdict Chapter 253 The Verdict Gilbert's words landed like a verdict. Case closed. Mystery solved. VPN 95 +5 Free Coins [See? Called it. Sherry's a total simp. If this were a real relationship, would any of you be that pathetic?] [Exactly. If two people enter a marriage normally, even if they end up acting humble, that happens much later, right? Like a year or two in, you get soft because you love that person. But this footage? That's right after they got married. That early? Suspicious as hell.] [So wait-did Sherry really trap Gilbert into marriage?

Like, climbed into his bed when he was vulnerable and lonely?] [Do you even need to ask? He basically said it. Sherry knew about Julia from day one and married him anyway. Then spends the whole marriage starting drama.] [Then Sherry deserves everything coming to her. What right does she have to play victim? What right to act all wounded?] "Gilbert, for your sweetheart, you're even lying now?" Sherry looked at Gilbert, feeling life slam her through every stage. Grief, hurt, disbelief-then a scornful, bitter laugh to cap it off. "Say it again.

I knew about Julia from the beginning?" Gilbert wasn't as combative as before-like he wanted her dead with every line, forcing her to apologize at the drop of a hat. This time, Gilbert was scarily composed-because he knew how important today was. He couldn't blow up. He couldn't let his bad temper trash Julia's career. "Don't pretend," he said evenly. "You're telling me you never heard Wendy's sister mentioned in our conversations? Not once?" Sherry had heard it. But no one had ever spelled out who that sister was-real sister, cousin, whatever.

Just hearing "Wendy's sister" means she knew everything? She watched Gilbert defend Julia and realized something. This was what it looked like when someone decided to protect another person at any cost. The lies came easily. To protect her, Gilbert even did what he'd always hated most-lying openly. 1/3 11:22 Sat, Mar 14 Chapter 253 The Verdict Well. Maybe not technically lying. She had heard "sister" before. VPN 95 +5 Free Coins Before tonight, she'd have called him willfully blind, found excuses to justify whatever he wanted to believe. But this? This was different.

Gilbert had crossed into shameless territory. He'd made up his mind-no matter what Julia did, no matter what anyone said, he'd defend her. That tenderness in his eyes-anyone could see it, even through a screen. Even if Sherry swore she didn't know-explained to everyone that she'd only ever heard the word "sister" and nothing more-what difference would it make? The footage was already out there. The image of her as the simp was already cemented. Explaining wouldn't change a thing. Destroying her own premiere just to expose someone else's embarrassing footage? That took a special kind of crazy.

And for what? So everyone could see Sherry looking desperate? Half their social circle already knew. Now it's just more people. "So you're saying this is all on me. What do you want me to do?" No guilt. No shame. No sign of a person caught red-handed. Sherry looked like a bully who genuinely believed she'd done nothing wrong, like she was the real victim here. Even before anyone there blew up, the online crowd was already losing it, Some people on-site started loudly whispering too. [Oh my God, I've never seen someone this shameless.

She's been publicly exposed, and she's still calm, asking what they want from her? Yeah, I'm Team Julia now.] [Poor Julia. Gilbert's literally her only friend here. They're building careers, dealing with business crap, and Sherry just won't let go. If they divorce, Sherry's definitely blaming Julia for everything.] [Well, now we know the truth. Her plan backfired. We'll explain things, set the record straight.] Someone shot that down fast. [You're adorable. People forget everything in a week. And there are millions of people out there with millions of opinions.

Guaranteed someone's still blaming Julia.] 2/3 11:22 Sat, Mar 14 Chapter 253 The Verdict VPN 95 +5 Free Coins "Tonight is Julia's night." Gilbert's voice cut through everything. "This premiere will go on." The meaning was clear. Whatever happened after-the reckoning, the confrontation, the consequences-that could wait. But tonight? Tonight belonged to Julia. After such a massive disaster-after dumping all the blame on her-he still expected her to just swallow it. 3/3 11:22 Sat, Mar 14 admin
