I inexplicably appeared in the hot search.
My parents had sought out the media to complain about my lack of filial piety.
They also enlisted relatives from my hometown
to accuse me.
They even shifted the blame for Selena’s hospitalization onto me.
Busybody netizens dug into my identity, found out that I was a company director, and considered me an ingrate, accusing me of not supporting my parents despite my wealth.
As a result, the company was affected.

My partner, who was a close friend, asked me how I wanted to proceed.
I held a live–streamed press conference in the name of the company.
Having status and position had its advantages; at least I didn’t have to perform under the scorching sun but could instead explain in an
air–conditioned room.
“Ms. Morita, are those two really your parents? Is what they said true? You haven’t supported
them and even drove them out of the house?”
The press conference began with the reporters. launching their questions.
I raised my hand to interrupt and said, “First,

I apologize to everyone for using public resources for personal matters. Secondly, I am here to make a statement, not to answer your questions.”
Next, I presented the remittance records of the money I had sent to my parents and Selena over the years, as well as evidence of purchasing a house for my parents and paying off the
mortgage.
“These do not include the expenses for my sister’s education and study abroad during her university years.”
“Back then, my parents favored Selena and tore up my admission letter from Harvard University.“As soon as these words came out, the scene was in an uproar.

Before they could raise questions, I continued, “The college entrance exam scores can be checked. If you do not believe it, you can inquire with Harvard University and the high school I
attended.”
The internet had a memory, and through it my past college entrance scores could be found. Compared to Selena’s score of over 300 points, everyone would see my parents‘ favoritism.
They wanted to destroy me, but they forgot one thing: it was no longer the era where the weak were right.
They left me no way out, so I exposed them.
I also presented a recording of a phone call from my parents a few days ago, demanding me a million dollars. Their imperious and harsh

words made everyone present uncomfortable.
“I believe I have never wronged my parents. I bought them a house, sent them money. regularly, and supported my sister. In the end, I am being slandered like this. I don’t know what I did wrong to be treated this way.”
“You didn’t do anything wrong,” a male reporter shouted.
“Thank you. The money I have given them over the years is enough to repay their upbringing. Therefore, I hereby announce that I am severing all ties with my parents. After their retirement, I will provide them with the national minimum pension. Apart from that, we will have no further relationship. If they have any objections, I don’t mind going to court.”

“Additionally, they barged into our company for Selena’s sake, causing me to fall and suffer a severe head injury leading to unconsciousness. They then colluded with my ex–husband Dr. Charles from Taran Hospital, who, during my unconsciousness, forcibly removed half of my liver. Even my sister’s hospitalization fees were deducted from my account. Therefore, I have filed a lawsuit to hold Taran Hospital
accountable.”
“How can such things happen in a rule–of-law society?”
“How can such a major surgery be performed without the patient’s consent?”
“I am willing to bear all legal responsibilities for the above materials and statements. Thank you
all for attending.”

I didn’t give the reporters time to ask questions
and left.
As I had anticipated, the Green family was denounced by everyone.
FBI intervened, and Charles was suspended for
investigation.”
