Vera Hansen didn’t seem like soone who would apologize.
So, everyone flocked to Vera’s live stream, curious to see what she was up to.
Vera watched the flood of people coming in, a glimr of satisfaction in her eyes.
A few minutes ago, she announced in the live stream that she would publicly apologize to Serena Sterling in five minutes.
There it was, she just piggybacked on Serena Sterling’s traffic.
She knew what the netizens wanted to see.
As the live stream audience numbers soared rapidly, she began: "We’ll start in three minutes, I hope more people can see my ’apology’ to Serena Sterling."
More and more people spread the word about the situation here.
Connor Goldsmith’s team was also pushing things along behind the scenes.
Fanning the flas everywhere.
So, everyone wanted to see Vera Hansen apologize to Serena.
"Three minutes are up, hurry up!"
Everyone urged impatiently.
In the car, Serena was also watching, curious to see if Vera was genuinely apologizing.
In the live stream.
Vera set the last vase of flowers in place.
Then, she sat by her temporary workstation.
"I saw what everyone was saying," Vera said.
"Serena Sterling, I don’t know if you’re watching."
Vera continued, "Since you want to apologize, well, although I did nothing wrong, Serena, I’m sorry."
"I’m sorry I didn’t realize you were such a person."
"I’m sorry that I thought we should understand each other as won and didn’t lash out at you."
"I’m sorry I didn’t expect you to be so manipulative, involving so many people just to make say these words."
As Vera continued speaking, the bullet chat exploded.
Repeatedly saying sorry, but every word was slandering Serena.
Making it sound like everything was forced on her by Serena.
As if she were the victim.
Vera smiled watching the live stream traffic surge.
She still wasn’t flustered.
"Sorry," she continued, "I have a few months to live, not dying imdiately in front of you is really regrettable."
"You want to repent, I really don’t know what to repent for."
"I don’t understand, Serena, I only have a few months left, why would you do this to , target soone who is terminally ill, is this your style?"
With that, she laughed and cried.
"I just wanted a wedding."
She said, "What do you want to do?"
"Serena, what do you want?"
"Do you want to kneel? Kowtow? Kowtow and admit I was wrong?"
"It’s okay, anything, as long as you let go."
"You don’t know what I’ve gone through... That wedding is my last wish."
Vera cried pitifully, and Serena found it disgusting.
Now she knew Vera was faking stomach cancer, and she was disgusted seeing Vera always use it as a pretense.
If it weren’t for Cygnus still acting, she would have exposed Vera directly.
But it’s not long now, there’s news that everything is progressing smoothly, to be resolved by noon tomorrow at the latest.
In the live stream, Vera continued speaking.
"At 9 am tomorrow morning, I will be at Vivian’s Floral Studio on ti."
"I will host a charity sale, all the funds raised will be donated to charity foundations to help others like who are ill."
Vera cried as she said, "It’ll be for my own good, burning paper in advance for the who will leave this world in a few months."
"I’ve thought it through, instead of repenting for sothing I’ve never done, it’s better to do sothing real."
With that, she looked at the cara and said, "I have no guilt in my heart."
Vera’s die-hard fans all comnted, expressing their determination to support her.
"Did soone see it? Even under such extre circumstances, Vera is still thinking of doing sothing for others, that’s true kindness!"
"There must have been difficulties for Vera before, or she was set up, she’s almost dying, why target Serena?"
"And Julian Lawson is already by her side, there’s no need to target Serena."
...
"She just wanted a wedding."
Vera looked at so wavering bystanders and her staunch defenders, feeling smug.
She would never truly apologize.
On one hand, she was unyielding.
On the other hand, if she truly apologized, she would lose her controversy and relevance, be abandoned just like she was before, and even lose the chance for notoriety.
What she said now could still market her "authenticity," if she truly apologized, even her loyal fans would scatter.
There would be nothing left.
Vera didn’t believe Serena had anything against her.
If she did, it would have been brought out long ago, not waited until now.
Serena was just bluffing.
Thinking this, Vera stood up as if to bow, but then "fainted" on the ground.
"Ms. Han!" The assistant imdiately rushed to support her up, and it seed chaotic.
In the live stream, Vera’s die-hard fans filled the bullet chat with ssages—"What do you want, the fans of soone? Vera was already critically ill, both physically and ntally, if anything happens to Vera, Serena, you and your fans will be burdened with a life!"
Serena was speechless.
She had thought the sun rose in the west, that Vera had learned to apologize.
She was just considering what to do if Vera sincerely apologized.
Now there’s no need to think about it.
So people aren’t worth sympathy, nor worth letting go.
Thinking this, she prepared to publicly release the docunt she was originally going to privately send to Vera to prove she indeed had evidence.
Uploading, waiting for the file to buffer, soone acted quicker than her.
It was that netizen 567 again.
567: Told you not to jump around anymore, still marketing your illness every day, I really can’t take it, Vera, do you want to see what this is? Faking depression?
Netizen 567, like last ti, attached pictures.
It was Vera’s real records at the sanatorium, sohow obtained by this mysterious netizen 567.
Serena watched her file still buffering and glanced at Silas Hawthorne beside her.
"Who do you think this is?" Serena was a bit curious.
Silas frowned slightly, he didn’t know either.
Serena thought about it, and deleted her unsent ssage.
She had previously ntioned giving Vera two chances.
She planned to release two files.
One was of course the file exposing Vera faking stomach cancer, but that had to wait until tomorrow.
To be released when the concert ended, of course, the fake depression file first.
From faking depression to faking stomach cancer.
Step by step.
But soone acted before her.
Since Vera had already "fainted."
The live stream had ended, now it was trending on the platform’s account instead.
There were already countless viewers of Vera’s live stream earlier, and now this happened, adding to Serena just finishing her concert, with Vera hitching onto Serena for marketing, the buzz was intense.
In no ti, the topic #VeraFakingDepression# exploded.
