The young heirs and daughters of Harmonfield''s richest families watched from the sidelines, eyes wide and mouths shut.
None of them dared to speak against the Dunns.
But Hank''s disy of emotion was enough to make them hesitate, a flicker of sympathy stirring within them.
The reporters, always on the lookout for the next big story, took full advantage.
Their cameras shed, capturing Hank''s every tear and desperate plea. His words spread quickly across the city, live on every screen.
Soon, the online world erupted. Those who only saw the moment, not the full story, flooded the
"Poor Mr. Miller. How can someone his age go through such pain?"
"What did you expect? The strong always win. The Dunns have the power, they always get their way
"Drake said it himself. He''s crushing them today. What can anyone do?"
"But this is too much. The Dunns are cruel and cold. This isn''t how anyone should behave."
"Someone should stop them. No one should get away with this violence."

Con Outrage spread faster than wildfire.
Hank watched it all unfold. The crowd''s anger was like a tide, and he knew how to use it. He pressed on, feeling the weight of their support. The louder he got, the more the crowd''s sentiment swayed in his favor. If the public kept this up, the Dunns'' empire might crumble under the pressure.
But Drake wasn''t waiti
for the world to weigh in. His anger was already a storm, ready to explode.
Vera stepped forward quickly, a sharp look in her eyes. "Hank, you''ve got it all wrong!
"This Vi One-it''s really Robin''s!"
Vera''s words instantly drew the attention of the cameras. All eyes turned to her.
"Alice came to me a few days ago, asking for help to borrow Vi One," Vera started.
"I told her it was Robin''s, but no matter how much I tried to exin, she wouldn''t believe me.
"I helped you get the vi, but I did it without telling Robin.
"Robin didn''te here today to stir up trouble at your engagement," Vera continued.

"He''s here because a friend of Mr. Carson is bringing him two Treyshan mastiffs. That''s why he showed up." Alice hissed, her eyes narrowing with fury...
"Vera, how could you?" she sneered. "We''re supposed to be close, yet here you are, defending Robin!
he pay you to say all of this? How much did he bribe you?"
"I want to know, how much did
Vera let out a long sigh, shaking her head. "Alice, I honestly don''t know what''s happening anymore. Are you being this foolish, or am I just the one who''s blind
"Robin is the one man I respect above all others. If I didn''t think I was too unworthy of him, I would''ve tried to woo him long ago.
"You keep insulting him, calling him worthless. And yet, you''re too blind to see what''s right in front of you.
"Look around, Alice. The smartest, most respected, and most beautiful women in Harmonfield-Ms. West and Ms. Dunn-they both show him nothing but respect. "How do you, with all your so-called status, have the nerve to look down on him?
"You''ve insulted him again and again. Are you really so lost that you can''t see how foolish you sound?
"Alice, deep down, you must know the truth. But you refuse to admit it.
"You''ve convinced yourself that the man you rejected could never be that good. And worse, you''re terrified that he actually is.
"You can''t stand to see Robin rise higher than you.
"You want him to fail. You want him to fall, so you can stand over him, look down, mock him, pity him- anything to feel superior.
"But that''s all just a pathetic fantasy in your
mind.
"Robin is the man you''ll never be able to reach.
"You''ve always said he''s not on your level. And you were right.
"His level is beyond your wildest imagination.
"Every time you see something good in him, you only feel hatred. You keep putting him down, over and
over.
"You still think he''s obsessed with you, don''t you?" Vera continued.
"Look around. The women who are close to Robin-none of them are like you. They''re better.
"Robin''s no fool. He doesn''t obsess over you, and yet you act like he can''t live without you. It''s ridiculous.
"You don''t get it, Alice. Robin doesn''t even care enough about you or your family to fight with you. You''re too blind to see it. I can''t stand it anymore.

"Robin is the most important man in my life. No onees done.
"When I helped you borrow the vi, I wanted you to see something, Robin is the man you''ll never have.
"So stop thinking you''re above him. You and your family? None of it matters to him.
*I like Robin.
"I know I''m not worthy of him, but I''ll follow him for the rest of my life.
"I''d rather have nothing, no title, no im to anything than live without him"
Augh broke from Alice then. It wasn''t one of joy. It was wild, manic, full of rage and something darker.
"Vera, I''ve treated you like my closest friend. But I guess that ends now.
"Since you''ve decided to say all that, I''ll just say what''s been on my mind."
Vera blinked, confused. "Alice, what are you talking about? If there''s something you want to say, then say
it"
Alice''s lips curled into a bitter smile. "Oh, I will.
"That vi you borrowed? It''s not Robin''s. It belongs to someone else. Someone powerful, someone who stays hidden in the shadows.
"You''ve been his kept woman, haven''t you? That''s the only way you could''ve gotten your hands on such an expensive ce."
A collective gasp rippled through the crowd.
The cameras from every newswork zeroed in on Vera. The words hit like thunder.
The woman who led Silva Group, the one who''d risen to the top with elegance and charm, was now the target of usations. Someone''s mistress?
No one had ever suspected it, not with her polished exterior, her fierce ambition.
But now it all made sense. Vera had gained control of the Silva Group with shocking speed.
In just one month, Silva Group had be a force to be reckoned with in Harmonfield.
Was it all just a mask? Was the power, the beauty, the grace just hiding something darker?
