Reclaiming What Was Meant to Be Mine novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19 Here Comes the Karma

In the eyes of June and the others, Roslin appeared like a fleeing rat. Confused by Linda's worried expression, they asked, "Linda, we humiliated that woman for you. Why aren't you happy?"

"June, I'm worried... she might go back and complain. If my dad and mom believe her, they'll blame me."

"Your mom and dad love you so much. How could they blame you for the words of an outsider?" June said naively.

An outsider?

Linda was the outsider.

The image of her father immediately asking her to move out when Roslin mentioned wanting her room flooded Linda's mind, and she could not suppress the pain and resentment in her heart.

"You have no idea how much my mom and dad favor her. Sh-she's staying in my old room now." Linda lowered her head as her eyes welled up with tears.

"What?!"

"That woman even took your room?"

"Why didn't you tell us earlier? If we had known, we wouldn't have let her go so easily."

"No need to rush. There's plenty of time ahead," Sarah said with a sinister tone. "She must be truly sick of living to dare to bully my best friend."

...

Meanwhile, as Roslin left the mall, she took out her phone and watched the recorded video. A cold smile spread across her face.

She dialed a familiar number on a public phone, contacting a paparazzi she had worked with numerous times in her previous life. However, this time, she chose to remain anonymous and not reveal her identity.

"I'll send you the video. It's up to you how you make this incident go viral. I'm offering you 75 thousand dollars for it. I'll provide an advance payment of 15 thousand, and the remaining amount will be paid once the job is done."

"No problem."

On that same evening, a secretly recorded video went viral. The video depicted a wealthy heiress from a prominent family arrogantly demeaning poor people, claiming they were unworthy of wearing their family's branded clothing. Adding to the intrigue, another heiress from a renowned shopping mall family shamelessly asserted that the poor would taint their family's establishment.

Even though the media pixelated the faces of the individuals in the video, it was no match for the keen eyes of netizens who swiftly uncovered their identities.

[This is Sky Mall, owned by the Garcia family in H City. The young lady of this family sure has a big mouth, suggesting that the mere presence of the poor in their mall would be considered contamination. Perhaps they should consider putting up a sign at the entrance with their exclusive requirements.]

[What a garbage mall.]

[Sky Mall has been a long-standing establishment in H City. It's disheartening to see them hold such a contemptuous attitude toward people. It's quite ironic that they're profiting from us while harboring such derogatory thoughts. That's *****]

[I really don't deserve to wear JL clothes.]

[I had the impression it was a prestigious brand, but it turned out to be JL. I was considering purchasing their latest collection, but now, haha, it seems my social status doesn't meet their standards.]

[I was actually considering buying the latest JL collection too. After seeing the news, I'm relieved that I didn't. It would have been so embarrassing if I were publicly exposed. JL is just too high-class for me to afford.]

[Boycott JL. Boycott Sky Mall.]

[Yes, let's boycott them. Let's see if they'll still be so arrogant when they lose customers like us.]

[Agreed. Let's boycott together.]
