Adam stood at the top of the stairs, clutching his tablet. On the screen, the so–called scandals about Skylar were shockingly on display.
Adam could barely understand what was on the tablet. He thought about going downstairs to ask his grandparents what was happening.
When he reached the stairway and saw his grandparents frantically calling Mom, his heart sank. Something must have happened to Momt he thought
Clutching his tablet, Adam hurried back to his room and called his father.
“Dad, quickly help Mom!” Adam pleaded, his voice trembling with tears. “Someone’s bullying her, and she’s not answering her phone. Did something happen to her?”
Yosef gently reassured Adam, “Don’t worry. Daddy’s already looking into it.”
Yosef softened his voice to comfort Adam. “Your mom won’t be crushed so easily. She’s probably tied up with something right now,” he said.
“Hang in there. Daddy will come to pick you up soon, and we’ll go see your mom at her office.”
Adam sniffled while responding to him. Yosef gently coaxed him, “Don’t cry. If your eyes get puffy, Mom will feel bad.”
“I’ll stop crying now.” Adam sniffled, wiping away the tears from his cheeks. Yosef said a few more comforting words before hanging up.
“Mr. Campbell, we’ve tracked down one of the influencer accounts. When asked about the source of the photos, he claimed an anonymous contact had
sent the pictures.
“They contacted via WhatsApp, but he doesn’t know who that person is,” Hudson explained.
“Send me the account details,” Josef instructed. Hudson sent the account details he obtained from the influencer account to Josef.
Yosef traced the account’s IP address and discovered it belonged to Zachary, who was currently at Chestbee Hospital.
‘Zachary? The son of the Stone family, who went abroad to study many years ago. He used to treat Skylar well, but why is he suddenly turning on her after returning?‘ Josef wondered.

In a flash, Josef suddenly understood. ‘Zachary’s kindness toward Skylar might have only been for show. Otherwise, how could he turn on her so suddenly?
‘Behind the scenes, he had been bullying her and even taking those kinds of photos, likely so he could use them later to control or threaten her into obedience,‘ Josef thought to himself.
Yosef felt a pang of remorse and sorrow. Just how much had I neglected Skylar in the past, that others could bully her like this and i didn’t even know,” he thought, guilt gnawing at him.
‘No wonder Skylar refuses to forgive me and is determined to get a divorce. Without Adam between us, I might never have seen her again in this lifetime, he thought.
Yosef’s face paled slightly as he shut his eyes, his head pounding with tension.
Hudson, having worked closely with Yosef for many years, immediately sensed something was off. “Mr. Campbell, you don’t look well. Should we get you checked at the hospital?”
“I’m fine, but we do need to go to the hospital,” Josef said.
Zachary was at Chestbee Hospital. ‘This demon who has wanted to ruin Skylar, absolutely won’t let him off this time,‘ Josef thought.
Yosef headed to Chestbee Hospital with Hudson and several bodyguards.
Chapter 293
In the ward, Ellanna was peeling some fruits for Zachary after the meal.
Her eyes sparkled with amusement. “Zachary, I didn’t expect you to cause such a big scene in the short time was gone. You really are something
Elianna said.
Zachary glanced at her coldly. “How I do things is none of your damn business. Just peel the damn apples and shut your mouth,” he said.
Elianna gritted her teeth. ‘What the hell! Just because I gave you a few compliments and you think you’re awesome? Don’t take it seriously, she cursed deep down.
Fuming, Elianna peeled the apple with.extra force, imagining Zachary’s face on it. ‘If only I could strip his skin off like this, she thought bitterly.
The door suddenly knocked. Thinking it was her mother, Elianna got up and opened it. “Mom…”
The voice came to an abrupt stop, with a faint tremble lingering in the final syllable.
Zachary sensed something was off and looked up, asking, “Who is it?”
