Public interest was aroused by the case, and with Fiona homeless and sent to a shelter, the trial date for the lawsuit has been pushed up significantly.
On the day of the trial, Stella showed up in person.
With so many people paying attention to the case, the court has approved a live stream so that everyone can follow the proceedings.
In the courtroom, Fiona sobbed heart-wrenchingly, making herself out to be a tragic victim. Many people were moved by her act, so they joined in and denounced Stella.
After Fiona finished her performance, tears came to Stella's eyes, too.
Just when everyone thought she'd cave and apologize, she said, "Mom, the internet leaves traces. Some things are still out there online.
"I don't think everyone will stay in the dark about your past if they look it up. I'll start from when I was a kid and go through everything, one by one."
Fiona was stunned.
She pleaded with the judge, claiming that Stella's stories had nothing to do with the case, but the judge overruled her objection.
After hearing what Stella said, everyone was left in shock.
Some people immediately went online to check, and only then did they realize that Fiona was truly terrifying.
With tears streaming down her face, Stella said, "Mom, if you'd been even a little kind to me, I wouldn't have to treat you like this.
"I'm not your only daughter. Anna turned her back on you the other day. You knew you couldn't count on her, so you chose to come after me instead, didn't you?
"It's not the first time that you let me down. Why do you have to treat me like this? Mom, am I really your daughter? You've never cared about me, but you gave me such a hard time. Why?"
Hearing these accusations, Fiona was completely dumbfounded.
Everyone finally realized what was going on. They had all been duped by Fiona's story.
"Damn, is she even a mom? This is just—" a guy said angrily.
They were at a loss for words.
Even lions didn't maul their cubs. It was fine to have a favorite, but this kind of blind favoritism was not right. It was almost cruel.
The more everyone felt sorry for her back then, the more they loathed her now.
Everyone knew that Stella could get where she was today because of Eleanor.
They trusted Eleanor and believed she wouldn't pick the wrong person.
Thinking about what they did to Stella, people started apologizing online.
The judge dismissed the plaintiff's claim and prohibited any future appeals. Fiona was completely dumbfounded.
She tried to argue with the judge, but he just ignored her, so she turned to Stella instead.
When Stella looked at her, a faint smile tugged at her lips.
As Fiona came closer, Stella leaned in and whispered in her ear, "Fiona, I have to thank you. Do you know why I went along with you? You've saved me a huge amount of money on advertising for my supermarkets.
"You made such a big fuss about this whole thing, and so many people know I'm opening supermarkets. It's blowing up, and so many people are looking forward to it. Thanks a bunch, mom."
Fiona stood frozen to the spot. She never imagined Stella would do it.
By the time she snapped out of it, she was so furious that she wanted to tear Stella apart. But Stella was gone.
Fiona still had nowhere to stay. People told her to ask Anna for help.
Of course she wanted to, but Anna wouldn't even talk to her.
No matter where Fiona showed up, people would treat her harshly.
