Chapter 444
Chapter 444:
“It was a hacker, someone highly skilled in video editing. His nis Francis Chapman—a known figure on the
dark net. The original video showed Charlotte returning something, not stealing it. But after it was edited, it looks
like theft.” Jessi’s eyes were blank, as if all life had drained from them, leaving her as nothing more than a
puppet in Khloe’s grasp. “Mr. Gray leaked confidential school information to create a distraction for Charlotte.
And my best friend helpedfind people willing to act like they'd been bullied. The girl in the bullying video
wasn’t Charlotte, but an actress made up to look like her.”
Braeden, who had maintained a composed front on screen, went pale as Jessi’s confession sank in. His legs
faltered, on the verge of buckling under him. He never thought Jessi would sell him out so easily.
“You're fucking idiot! How could you turn onlike this?” Braeden roared, jabbing a finger at Jessi. His once-
friendly expression twisted with rage, making him look almost monstrous. Framing minors and covering up for

Jessi’s phone slipped from her grasp, hitting the floor with a loud thud. Khloe bent down, picked it up, and fixed
Braeden with a chilling stare. “This is your only chance, Braeden Gray. Turn yourself in now. If you don’t, I'll see
to it personally that you're dealt with, and | promise, your punishment will be far worse.”
With those words, she hung up the call.
She didn’t waste tworrying about Braeden fleeing. In a city controlled by Henrik’s network, there was simply
nowhere for Braeden to hide.
Turning her attention back to Jessi, who sat on the floor in a daze, Khloe asked, “Did you keep anything else
related to Charlotte?”
“Why on earth would I hold on to the belongings of someone so worthless?” Jessi spat, her venomous personality
surfacing under hypnosis. “That pathetic tramp! She had the nerve to outshinein school and make my family
criticizefor not measuring up! | had no choice but to destroy her! The videos | took of her? They're priceless
entertainment. | made her cut off her hair and eat it. | even dangled her over a river, almost drowning her. She
deserved every bit of it!”

The room fell into stunned silence, every word from Jessi reverberating in the shocked minds of the crowd.
They had actually believed this monster just moments ago.
The crowd stood motionless, their expressions twisted in shock, horror, and anger.
Khloe’s eyes blazed with fury, the urge to strike Jessi almost consuming her. She clenched her fists, forcing
herself to calm down. “Jessi, you hate Charlotte so much, so you must have kept these videos.”
“Obviously! That's all she’s good for. Whenever I'm feeling low, | just watch those clips oftormenting her,
and they instantly lift my mood. It's so satisfying!” Jessi giggled, completely devoid of remorse, her face twisted
with satisfaction.
“And where exactly are these videos stored?”
“Where else? They're on my phone!” Jessi bragged, pulling out her phone and opening a private folder. “Here,
have a look. You'll find them hilarious.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs a video began to play, Khloe’s hands shook subtly, and her breath caught in her throat.
The footage revealed Charlotte, bruised and bloodied, reduced to a state of pure humiliation and helplessness.
Khloe stood frozen. Exposing Charlotte’s painful history to the public would surely spark outrage and turn
everyone against Jessi, sealing her fate. But at the stime, it would force Charlotte to face that horrific part of
her past again.
Just as Khloe hesitated, Charlotte took the phone from her. Her steady gaze met Khloe’s, and she said firmly,
“Lethandle this. It's my past, and | need to confront it myself.”
She pressed play, letting the others see the video for themselves.
