Hensen looked old and sorrowful. There was unspeakable agony in his eyes as he brought that tragic story up.
He was starting to sob, so his wife explained, "He blackmailed us with the video and demanded money from us. And it didn't stop after one time, no. He kept demanding more and more. Yvonne almost killed herself a few times when she found out what was happening."
Mrs. Spencer started crying at that point as well.
Veronica pulled out some tissues and handed them to her. The lady wiped her tears with them and continued, "She's our only daughter, and we love her. We couldn't stand by when someone was trying to humiliate her. In the end, we had to give him everything we had before he finally let us go."
Castron was a liberal country that wouldn't stop anyone from uploading pornography. If Zac did upload that video, he definitely would not censor Yvonne's face, and the video would go viral and turn Yvonne into the butt of everyone's joke. She was born in Castron. If the video made its way to the internet, everyone would start throwing slurs and bullying her whenever they saw her.
The Spencers were old school, and they loved Yvonne. There was no way they would let Zac spread that video.
Zac had been eyeing the Spencers' wealth for a while. So, he exploited their love for Yvonne and set her up just to get his hands on all their money. Now that they had lost everything, Zac had no more use for them or the video, so he deleted everything.
"That b*stard."
Veronica clenched her fists. So, that's where he got the funds to invest in Spinfluence. He wrung the Spencers dry and injected the money into Spinfluence. Zac's gonna turn it into his plaything soon enough. Conrad is nothing but a fool.
"It's never wise to go against the royalty. You made the right choice, Mr. and Mrs. Spencer. When push comes to shove, money's only superficial. A united family is more important," she said.
Zac was the youngest prince of Castron royalty, and he was spoiled rotten. A small family like the Spencers couldn't hope to fight him.
"Yes. At least we're all still alive." Mrs. Spencer heaved a long, long sigh. "I'm just worried about Yvonne."
The lady started bawling her eyes out, and Veronica was upset as well. She wrapped her arm around the grieving woman and hugged her. "Don't worry, Mrs. Spencer. They'll pay for what they did to you guys."
