Five Years Wasted Now They Beg Her Back novel Chapter 105

Lilian hatched a wild plan: she would use public opinion to drag Grace down from her pedestal.

She dried her tears and found the number of a tabloid reporter she knew.

“Hello, is this Mr. Parker? I have a big scoop for you. Interested?”

“It’s about… that brilliant scientist who’s all over the news, Grace Hart.”

“Yes, I’m her sister.”

“Oh, she’s not as pure and innocent as you all think. She’s ungrateful, and she’s left her own family to die…”

On the other end of the line, Lilian embellished the story, twisting the truth and painting herself as a poor, pitiful victim being oppressed by her wicked sister.

She tearfully claimed that Grace’s current achievements were all thanks to the Hart family’s early, no-expense-spared cultivation.

But now that the Hart family had fallen on hard times, Grace, their own daughter, wouldn’t even come back to see them and was even kicking them while they were down.

The story was fabricated with such heart-wrenching emotion it would make anyone weep.

The tabloid reporter, sensing a story that would generate massive traffic, beat his chest and promised to write her a “scathing exposé” that would shake the heavens.

The next day, an article titled “Behind the Genius: A Scientist’s Abandoned Family and the Cold-Blooded Truth” quickly went viral online.

In the piece, Lilian, using the pseudonym “Lina,” recounted her sister’s “wicked deeds” in a tone dripping with sorrow.

[My sister was gifted from a young age. To nurture her talent, my parents gave her everything. The best schools, the most expensive lab equipment—if she asked for it, our family would have sold the shirts off our backs to give it to her.]

[But what about her? After achieving fame and success, she became ashamed of our family’s decline and cut off all contact.]

[My father is gravely ill, the company is bankrupt, and we have nowhere to turn, but she won’t even answer a single phone call.]

[She said we are a burden to her and would tarnish her brilliant image.]

The article was highly inflammatory. Paired with a few photos of the Hart family’s now desolate mansion and a picture of Mr. Hart’s haggard “sickly” face, it worked like a charm.
