Seven Years Lost: My Firefighter fiancé Saved Everyone But Our Love - Chapter 55: Chapter 55

While I was in the security office pulling surveillance footage, the company group chat completely exploded.
It started with someone sharing a forum post.
"The female manager at my internship keeps hooking my fiancé. How do I get her to back off?"
The post was from a month ago and hadn't gotten much attention at first.
But the OP had been updating it constantly for a month.
Now it was like some twisted soap opera.
Someone traced it back to the very first post, dated right when Calla started at our company.
With hot topics like "internship," "homewrecker," and "marriage," the post had blown up with tons of comments.
I skimmed through it quickly, then ignored it.
But then people in our group chat started tagging me like crazy.
I clicked in to see the latest screenshot from the poster.
It was the notification about getting kicked from the group chat, along with a pity party.
"Got fired before my internship even ended. Can jealous women just stay home instead of working?"
I rolled my eyes internally and read through the comments with a blank expression.
Some people were already jumping on the hate train, while others stayed neutral.
After all, the chat screenshots Calla posted were obviously edited.
I thought about it, then created a new account and commented boldly.
"Can't control your own man's dick, so every other woman on earth is the problem."
As soon as I posted it, replies started flooding in:
"OMG here we go with victim blaming again. Use your real account if you've got balls."
"You're totally the manager, aren't you? So embarrassing. They're literally getting married."
I didn't rush to respond. Instead, I scrolled through other comments.
My coworkers had jumped in to defend me.
They explained that Calla got fired for her own screw-ups.
Ever since she started at the company, she'd been obsessed with Matthias.
If he hadn't been cleaning up her messes behind the scenes, she would've been gone ages ago.
Before long, my comment got hate-voted to the top.
Seeing all the attention I'd attracted, I smugly made my own post.
I screen-recorded my chat history with Matthias, including when he confessed his feelings.
Then I grabbed the timestamp from Calla's marriage certificate post.
Finally, I uploaded that fake certificate.
Matthias shouldn't get to hide behind the scenes in all this drama. I wasn't about to let him off easy.
After I posted my evidence, the company group went dead silent for a moment.
Then the messages started flying even faster.
Matthias and I had been rivals during our internship.
We'd fought like cats and dogs 365 days a year - it was practically World War III.
Even though we'd kept things quiet these past few years, we still clashed plenty.
Everyone thought we were completely incompatible, like putting a match to gasoline.
Nobody ever imagined we'd end up together.
Getting blindsided by this office love triangle drama.
While they were still trying to figure out how to comfort me, I'd already kicked Matthias out of the company group.
Then I posted sarcastically.
"If even the certificate was fake, what could we possibly have that's real?"
"For me to fall for him, my ancestors' graves would have to explode."
In my DMs, Matthias's avatar had been bouncing non-stop.
After getting kicked from the group, he was sending dozens of messages per minute.
Didn't need to look to know he was losing his shit.
I couldn't be bothered to read any of it. Just blocked and deleted him.
After finishing my counterattack, I looked back to see Calla had completely lost it.
This time she didn't even bother censoring anything, just posted raw chat screenshots.
Embarrassing nicknames, suggestive messages.
Even some intimate photos, showing off her relationship with Matthias.
"Your certificate is fake. You're nothing but a homewrecker."
Calla was clearly panicking, even using real names now.
But while she was trashing me, one comment rose to the top.
"Didn't your mom already pass away? Why is she still alive in these chat logs?"
