Chloe shot me a venomous glare, then slowly began to name the criminals.
There were eight in total—seven were CEOs of major companies in the city, and one was a tycoon from a neighboring city.
This shocking case not only stunned the police but also all the media present!
To prevent leaks and ensure the criminals couldn't escape, the police immediately launched arrests.
In just three hours, all eight were captured.
When I saw the eight men who had attacked my dad being handcuffed and brought into custody, looking disheveled and defeated, I couldn't contain my excitement!
Dad, Mom, our family's revenge is finally here!
Every one of those who hurt us will go to hell—no one gets away!
Chloe probably knew that once she exposed these eight, there was no turning back.
If she didn't take them down completely, they would come for her.
After turning them in, Chloe provided a massive amount of evidence against them.
Each piece of ironclad proof was enough to sentence each of them to death.
In just one day, the verdict was delivered.
All eight were sentenced to immediate execution, their companies seized, and assets confiscated.
Chloe's small influencer agency, which had been backed by these eight, was also shut down.
Just one day ago, Chloe was a popular internet celebrity, a millionaire.
A day later, she was a paralyzed penniless woman.
After the verdict, Chloe sat in her chair and asked bitterly, "Are you satisfied now?"
I picked up a pen and quickly wrote down an address.
The police immediately sent people to search the location.
By now, the live stream had been running for forty-eight hours straight.
The comments section was no longer one-sided—now it was divided.
Some called me a hero who used bloodshed to expose evil.
Others said Chloe was just a cheap streamer who sold herself to sugar daddies.
Yet others claimed I was a monster seeking attention, profiting from tragedy.
The two sides argued fiercely, making the stream hotter than ever.
To ride the wave, more media outlets jumped in, turning Chloe and me into bigger celebrities than A-list stars.
I asked, "You'll see your precious son soon—aren't you excited?"
Chloe lowered her voice, seething with hatred, "Lily, don't get cocky!"
"Even if my company's gone, I can use this attention to start streaming and make even more money!"
"Even paralyzed, my son will take care of me when he grows up!"
"I'll earn enough to make him an elite, continue our family line!"
"And you? You'll be executed soon!"
"Maybe someday, I'll take my son to your grave and stream there for more views!"
Facing Chloe's vicious taunts, I remained unmoved.
Soon, the police followed the address I provided and found what I had hidden in the underground storage.
Forensic officers brought the evidence into the interrogation room.
The veteran officer frowned as he opened the sealed bag. Seeing the charred fingers inside, he couldn't help but gasp.
Chloe stared in shock, then muttered in disbelief, "What… what is this?"
The officer said, "We followed Lily's directions and found charred fingers and a small gold ring in the basement."
The older officer put on rubber gloves, picked up the ring with tweezers, and examined it carefully.
"Based on the size, it's for a child under five."
"But the finger bones seem too large…"
When she saw the charred fingers and the ring, Chloe's psychological defenses completely collapsed.
She let out a wail, "That's my son's protection ring! I bought it for his third birthday!"
