“Know what to do?” Yosef said coldly.
David shook his head at first, but when he met Yosef’s piercing gaze, he began nodding frantically. “Yes, I know what to do” But the truth was he didn’t.
“Go online and make it crystal clear to everyone–who’s the liar here, making things up and spreading rumors,” Yosef said, surprisingly cairn.
David nodded repeatedly. “Got it. I’ll do exactly what you said.”
He was terrified that even the slightest slip–up might anger them and get him beaten up.
Zachary struggled to lift his head, gasping weakly, “No, you can’t do that.
“Don’t you dare ruin everything. I’ve worked so hard for it.”
He wanted Skylar to come crawling back to him and act like a po
pet. He couldn’t let all his efforts go to waste.
David didn’t care. He just wanted to make it out of there alive. “Mr. Campbell, what do you want me to do?” he said, smiling.
“Hudson, show him how to shoot the video.” With that, Yosef walked

sapology and how to record it.
David paid close attention, desperate to get this over with and leave.
“Mr. Stone, your turn now,” Hudson said after showing him.
David cleared his throat, hit record, and started reciting the script word for word.
“I am Zachary’s biological father and Skylar’s adoptive father. I’m making this video because I need to set the record straight. Everything that’s been said about Skylar online is not true.
“She never did any of those things. The so–called photos? They were taken when Zachary and his friends were bullying her. They used them to mess with her, blackmail her.
“The truth is, the one who did wrong was my son. And that’s on me I failed Skylar, if you’re watching this, I want to say I’m sorry.”

raise him right. Because of that, Skylar got hurt, and she didn’t deserve it.
David ended the recording and looked over at Yosef, nervous. “Mr. Campbell, is that good enough?”
Yosef responded with a nonchalant hum. “Hudson, handle the rest.”
He stood up and told two bodyguards to stay behind and assist Hudson, then led the rest out of the hospital.
Hudson quickly edited the video, added a short caption to explain what it was, and uploaded it across every major platform.
Then he paid to boost it, making sure it popped up instantly on people’s phones.
Online, things exploded. Comments poured in, fast and furious.
[What the heck just happened? That’s such a big twist! Did I just get played for a fool again?]
[What’s going on? Why is the truth only coming out now? I just trashed Skylar so badly, I’m such an idiot.)
[The whole story flipped overnight. Should’ve waited before jumping in. Now I’m just another clueless hater.]
[Ugh, I actually believed in Skylar at first, but I caved and joined the hate train. I’m such a jerk. Skylar, I’m really sorry!]

People kept spamming “Sorry” in the comments, and it quickly shot to the top of every trending list.
After checking the response online, Hudson talled in a doctor and said Zachary’s injury had out of bed, he “accidentally” fell to the floor.

His injuries have gotten worse. Make sure the doctor examines him thoroughly and while you’re at it, have his mental state checked, too.
He was so furious that he looked like he might explode. He wanted to curse them out, but the pain left him unable to speak.
