The Betrayed Heiress' Return to Elegance 214
Chapter 214 Corrine
Seemed Less Concerned
"Have you not caught the news yet?" Karina asked, eyes wide with disbelief as she
stared at Corrine.
She had come into the office to retrieve her belongings left at Corrine's place the previous evening. However, a startling post she encountered online hastened her
steps.
Karina had hurried over, only to discover Corrine seemingly less affected than anyone
else would be.
With a calm sip of her coffee, Corrine said, "Your things are over on the couch."
She than calmly opened her laptop.
Under a social media post concerning the Ashton family anniversary, an anonymous user had pinned a link.
Clicking on the link, Corrine was directed to a new revelation.
"Startling Revelation! Scandalous Snapshots of Ashton Group CEO's Ex- Fiancee!"
Minimal text accompanied the post, yet it displayed images of Corrine in tattered attire.
Upon seeing the photographs, a wave of paleness washed over Corrine's face, her eyes reflecting pure shock.
No one could grasp the origin of these photos as profoundly as Corrine.noveldrama
They were remnants of her abduction ordeal.
Corrine remembered that day like it was yesterday. Bruce had arranged dinner after
work, and they had plans to browse wedding dresses together.
However, Bruce failed to appear. As she exited, assailants ambushed and subdued her.
She struggled, but they stuck a needle into her neck. A wave of darkness hit her, and
everything went black.
.
Awakening to a nightmare, she found herself amidst masked figures photographing her in vulnerable poses.
Though she resisted fiercely, the damage inflicted was irreversible.
Memories of her smashing the cameras resurfaced in her mind.
Yet, these photographs had leaked somehow.
The misleading post claimed that Corrine had created these images for financial gain, hidden her suspicious background, and misrepresented herself to secure a union with the Ashton family.
Corrine gripped the mouse so tightly her knuckles turned white, her whole body trembling.
She took a steadying breath and clicked to view the comments.
"She threw accusations of unfaithfulness at Bruce just yesterday, and today it's clear
she's the dishonest one!"
"It's shocking to see such a reputable lady involved in dark dealings!"
"Poor Mr. Ashton. Imagine being stuck with a woman like her. What a mess!"
Karina, observing the strain on Corrine's face, leaned forward and gently asked, "Corrine, these images aren't authentic, right? What's the real story here?"
Her question was driven by concern, not suspicion, for what Corrine had been through.
Corrine exhaled deeply and said, "I was abducted a month before my planned wedding
with Bruce."
Shock painted Karina's face as she absorbed the news.
After a brief silence, Karina exclaimed, "What the hell! Why was I not informed earlier?"
As Corrine detailed the kidnapping with unnerving calm, Karina's heart grew heavy with empathy.
Corrine's strength was evident, yet she remained vulnerable, deserving of compassion
and care.
Holding back her tears, Karina replied, "I'm going to pull every string I have to find
the culprits who posted the photos and ensure they face justice!"
With a quiet intensity, Corrine responded, "I know who is responsible."
