Falling for a Lie: My Stepbrother's Hidden Revenge

Chapter 262

“Just kneel for 30 minutes with the washboard?” Eder let out a long sigh of relief.

Based on the severity with which Sylvia had treated him in the past, he had thought she would make him. kneel

all night, or at least start with four or five hours.

Compared to before, Sylvia was very gentle today. It seemed that Sylvia still cared for him.

He felt much better in his heart and reSylviactantly lifted his head from Sylvia's legs, straightening his posture to

accept his punishment.

In the correct position, the weight of his entire body pressed onto his knees. It becincreasingly painful, and

he continuously adjusted his breathing, occasionally closing his eyes to count the time.

Seeing that he had stopped making a fuss, Sylvia opened her phone and continued to deal with Abigail's

matter.

Beth had sent her several messages in a row, but she had been too focused on setting rules for Eder and had

forgotten to check her phone.

Now, as she looked, Beth asked her to check the trending topics.

The news of Abigail's “suicide” couldn't be suppressed. It had been exposed by bystanders who filmed a video

and uploaded it online, and it had made it to the trending topics. Despite Angle's PR team’s efforts to reduce its

popularity, the topic remained in the top ten.

She was considering a soSylviation when Dark Bell sent her several high-definition photos.

There were photos of Peter and Elizabeth holding hands and kissing late at night, as well as clear, uncensored

photos taken by the hidden cameras in their hotel room. There were over twenty of them.

A mischievous smile tugged at the corners of Sylvia's lips. These photos cat just the right time!

She called Beth, “Send a notice in Angle's name. State that Abigail is the victim and reveal her previous romantic

relationship with Peter, as well as the truth behind her heartbreaking choice to ‘commit

suicide.”

“Also, | have a photo here. BSylviar the woman's face, but make it obvious that it’s not Abigail. Send it to the

reporters and media, urging them to quickly write articles and generate more attention.”

After hanging up the phone, she selected a provocative yet not too explicit high-resoSylviation photo and sent it

to Beth.

Ten minutes later, the hot search rankings quickly underwent a thorough cleansing. The term “Peter's affair

leading to Abigail's heartbreak and suicide attempt” swiftly climbed to the top.

The entertainment company Starlight Entertainment, where Peter belonged, couldn't sit still and immediately

released a statement. They denied Peter's past romantic relationship with Abigail and his affair. They even

threatened legal action, claiming they would sue those spreading rumors.

Sylvia read Starlight’s official blog, then used her own account to edit a short article and posted it.

[When walking the path of darkness, you will inevitably encounter ghosts. Speople think they can hide their

heinous acts from everyone, but even if they don’t admit it, we have solid evidence! If these individuals have

even a shred of conscience, they should sincerely apologize to our company’s victim and admit to all their

wrongdoings. Otherwise, they will bear the consequences!]

Shortly after posting this message, Sylvia received a call from Peter's manager.

Mr. Noah, the manager, asked, “Miss Sylvia, do you really have solid evidence?”

Sylvia responded coldly, “Over twenty high-resoSylviation, uncensored photos. What if they were displayed on

the big screens in the square on repeat tomorrow?”

“No, please! Please don’t do that! Our boss's intention is for both sides to take a step back. Since you've just

entered the S city market and are not yet firmly established, let's find a compromise. How much money do you

want?”

Sylvia chuckled upon hearing this, “Your company, Starlight, can’t afford my price. If you offer too little, | won't

even take you seriously. In fact, my goal is quite simple: | only target Peter. He should apologize, admit to all his

mistakes, and leave the entertainment industry. Not a single demand less.”

“Well...

“You can’t decide on this matter. Ask your boss at Starlight if he wants to give up Peter or the entire company.

Let him decide! | want to see the result by tomorrow at the latest, or else tomorrow's trending topics will be

about Starlight Entertainment’s dark secrets.”

After hanging up the phone, Sylvia sent another message to Beth, [Butterfly Girl Group's group activities will be

suspended for now. Except for Abigail and Elizabeth, the other members’ solo activities will continue. Keep a

close eye on Elizabeth, and I'll deal with her when | have time.]

She was concentrating on her typing when her sleeve was lightly tugged by a man beside her.

Eder was breathing heavily, sweat dripping from his forehead. His knees were nearly numb from the pain,

enduring this torture for over half an hour.

He used his own method to silently remind Sylvia. “It’s time!”

Sylvia was busy typing on her computer and ignored him.

He felt helpless and frustrated, so he weakly called out to her, “Sylvia...”

“Mm.” Sylvia didn’t even lift her head, casually responding, clearly not paying attention to him.

“I'm in pain... It's been 30 minutes!!” He tightened his grip on her sleeve.

“Fine,” she replied absentmindedly, still not looking up.

What does “fine” mean?

Should I get up or not?

Eder couldn’t understand her attitude. He endured for another ten minutes, but Sylvia was still

engrossed in her phone...

Is the phone more interesting to her? Or has she becaddicted to it?

Eder becfurious!

He quickly stood up from the washing board, grabbed Sylvia's delicate wrist, and pushed her down onto the bed,

using his arm to hold her down.

“Hey, my phone!”

Eder increased the pressure, not allowing her to reach for her phone.

“What's more important, the phone or me?”

Sylvia frowned, confused by this ridiculous question. How can they be compared?

“Of course, you are more important.”

Eder snorted and leaned closer to her. Dangerous coldness flickered in his black eyes. “Then why do you only

look at your phone and not at me?”

“I... I'm working,” Sylvia turned her face away, her cheeks bSylviashing from his warm breath.

“Work can never be finished. It can be dealt with tomorrow as well.”

His dark eyes narrowed slightly, and he licked his upper incisors with his tongue, a wicked smile forming on his

face. “You've ignoredfor so long, are you still angry?”

“Hmm?” Sylvia's tone rose, not understanding his meaning.

Eder directly answered her with his actions. He grabbed her arm and flipped her over.

His husky and magnetic voice approached her ear, teasingly. “Today, no matter what you say, it won't stop me,

my dear wife.”

Sylvia sensed the dangerous aura emanating from him and started to panic.

A wicked smile adorned the noble and handsface of the man. His uninjured right hand covered her

mouth, not giving her any chance to speak or resist.

Then, regardless of her sobbing, he continued without stopping.

It was only now that Sylvia realized that Eder was feeling frustrated and angry tonight. He must have been

holding back his anger for a long time.

He truly cherished and loved her. Within the bounds of control, he could obediently endure being beaten and

even let her vent her frustrations.

However, there were limits. He wouldn't tolerate going too far or crossing his bottom line.

Once the line was crossed, he would respond like he was now.

Using his own way, he punished her fiercely.
