The Moment I Froze His Black Card Was More Satisfying Than Our Wedding Night - Chapter 88: Chapter 88

I suddenly remembered Patrick pushing me to the floor during arguments, causing huge bruises on my shins.
A few days ago, he'd also slapped me...
All of this had been recorded by the security cameras at home.
Reed continued explaining:
"These scattered, ongoing injuries seem minor individually, but when combined, they prove you've been subjected to long-term violent behavior."
I perked up immediately.
I pulled out my recording device.
In the background, Patrick's voice was roaring:
"You crazy bitch! If you don't apologize to Luna properly, I'll fucking kill you..."
Reed's eyes lit up even more.
She nodded with a smile.
"Perfect. According to the Civil Code, insults and threats between family members also fall under domestic violence."
As soon as Luna got out, she couldn't wait to find me.
She waited for me downstairs at my company.
"How's that feel? Pissed off yet? Not only am I fine, but Patrick feels even more sorry for me now."
"Well, keep gloating then."
I turned and walked into the company.
Luna was stopped by security but kept screaming at me.
"Hey, doesn't your company check people's character when hiring?"
"Do you know what she did? She's a total slut who likes group sex..."
The security guard looked at her like she was insane.
Then they hauled her off to the police station.
Since she'd just gotten out and was causing trouble again, this wasn't just going to be a fine.
She got locked up for seven days.
Hearing this news improved my mood considerably.
That night, I was at home eating ice cream when someone started pounding on my door.
Through the video doorbell, I saw Patrick.
"What the hell's your problem? What gives you the right to kick me out?"
I yanked the door open.
Patrick stumbled and almost fell.
He steadied himself and snarled at me:
"What's with this attitude? Keep this up and we'll have to break up."
I thought I'd heard wrong.
"Didn't we already break up?"
"That was just talk - I had to say that so Leo would get over it."
Patrick acted like nothing had happened and walked into the house.
This penthouse was worth over 8 million - my mom had left it to me.
Patrick knew the market value, so he wasn't willing to really break up with me over this property.
Luna was someone he liked physically.
With me, it was purely about profit.
Patrick's tone softened:
"Look, I'll stay away from Luna from now on, okay?"
"That day she seduced me, and I'd been drinking a little - I couldn't resist... but I swear it was just that once."
I stared at him expressionlessly.
Then I pulled up Luna's INS to show him.
First, she'd embellished the story about me deliberately trying to break up her and Leo.
Then she'd posted screenshots from that fake group video Patrick had made.
All the body parts were censored, but she deliberately left my face visible.
Anyone could see how intense the "action" was.
Patrick's scumbag friends were already pissed at me over the birthday incident.
Now they swarmed like flies on shit.
They were outraged, all condemning me for being promiscuous.
They even shared it on more platforms - Twitter, TikTok, Facebook.
This immediately sparked online debate.
People who didn't know the truth were tearing me apart.
Some who recognized me messaged asking for the real story.
"What's going on? Did you piss someone off?"
I gripped my phone tightly, staring Patrick down.
Patrick's face kept changing color, his breathing getting rapid.
He knew damn well that video was fake.
They say you don't fear a strong opponent, but you fear a stupid teammate.
Originally not many people knew about it, but now that it was spreading online, that changed everything.
With this much circulation, it was already criminal.
