Chapter 244

Emily Lowell's doe-like eyes blinked rapidly, giving her the vulnerable appearance of a startled fawn.

Victoria Lowell's heart melted at the sight. "Silly child, there's no need for formalities with your parents."

She sighed inwardly. It was all those wretched adoptive parents' fault for raising such a well-mannered child with such warped sensibilities.

"Mmm." Emily nodded obediently. "Don't worry, Mother. I can handle it."

A shadow flickered in her eyes.

Those lowlifes were like leeches that refused to let go. She'd deal with them eventually.

But Richard Lowell must never suspect a thing.

As long as that secret remained buried, Sophia could never touch her no matter how much she thrashed about.

Victoria patted her hand approvingly. "If only Sophia were half as sensible as you."

Her gaze lingered on her docile daughter with deep satisfaction.

Meanwhile, Sophia Laurent lounged in the backseat of a car scrolling through her phone.

The whitewashing comments from Emily's fans drew a cold chuckle from her.

Kind? Virtuous?

Adrian Valdemar stole a glance through the rearview mirror and felt an involuntary shiver.

That particular laugh never preceded anything good.

He hunched his shoulders, making himself as inconspicuous as possible.

The internet suddenly exploded.

#SHOCKING! Rising star's intimate photos with multiple men surface#

#The dark truth behind entertainment industry's fake heiress#

#Twisted sibling relationships in wealthy family exposed#

Netizens initially dismissed it as fake news.

Then they opened the posts and collectively gasped.

The woman in the photos was unmistakably Emily Lowell.

Her male companions? The Lowell brothers themselves.

The first photo showed Emily pressed flush against Christopher Lowell, her arms wrapped tightly around his waist.

In the second, she perched on Nathan Lowell's lap feeding him fruit while they exchanged intimate smiles.

The third was even more scandalous—Emily sharing a bed with Daniel Lowell.

The final image depicted William Lowell cradling her in his arms, his gaze dripping with tenderness.

The internet went nuclear.

"Holy shit! Is this really free content?"

"Rich people are disgusting!"

"Are we sure these are siblings?"

"My moral compass just shattered!"
