Chapter 6
“Lily’s calling Ryan daddy, and Madison’s calling Ryan daddy too! Either someone’s lost their mind or we’ve got MAJOR drama!“[
“Quick, start livestreaming! This is gonna go viral!“]
Lily’s face was red with frustration. “Dad, say something!“]
“You little bitch! Stop calling him that! He’s My daddy! You’re nothing!” Madison snarled at Lily.[]
Charlotte’s eyes narrowed as she studied my face, then she actually started laughing.
“Oh, I get it now! That’s why you were so determined to mess with me today. You’re here trying to steal MY Ryan, thinking you can seduce him? Bitch! In your dreams!“]
“You and your brat are both pathetic!“]
Then she looked at Lily with pure disgust: “No wonder this ten–year–old already gives off slutty vibes. Like mother, like daughter. Has she already been with men?“[]
That was IT. My voice turned deadly: “You’re DONE.”
Nobody talks about my daughter like that. My face went ice cold as I stared Ryan down:[]
“Ryan, are you gonna tell them the truth or not?“]
Ryan stared at me for a long moment, then smiled this sick, twisted smile. He mouthed the words without speaking:]
“This is payback for crossing me!“]
Then he completely ignored Lily, who was looking at him desperately, and took Charlotte and Madison’s hands instead.[]
“This is my wife, this is my daughter. As for everyone else – just some bitch trying to cause drama.“[]
“All bark, no bite.”
Lily went completely still, her face crumpling with hurt. “Dad, how can you say that?! We’re your family!“[]
Madison rolled her eyes. “Lily, you’re so cringe! My mom told you the truth but you’re still trying to claim us!“[]
I was absolutely DONE. I pointed right at his face: “Ryan Mitchell, you backstabbing piece of SHIT!“]
“This woman’s still talking trash! Mr. Mitchell’s being way too nice – just beat her ass already!“[]
“Livestream fam, look at these shameless wannabes trying to homewreck! They’re not even in his league! Mr. Mitchell already shut them down but they’re still trying to clout chase!“[]
Everyone was staring at me and Lily with pure disgust, hurling insults like weapons.[]
Ryan brushed his hair back casually and walked over, his smugness written all over his face. He whispered:[]

Chapter 6
“Maya, this is what happens when you don’t listen. Your daughter wouldn’t be suffering if you’d just stayed in line. Just apologize and this ends.”
I stared him down coldly. “You’re dead.“]]
My people should be arriving any minute now.
The principal was practically groveling as he rushed over to Charlotte and Madison: “My apologies! I clearly didn’t recognize true excellence! This award absolutely belongs to your daughter!”
Everyone was kissing their asses while Charlotte and Madison basked in the attention, getting more arrogant by the second.[]
But then, one luxury car after another started pulling up to the school entrance.]
Men in expensive suits stepped out clearly powerful business types.
“Holy shit, those are Oceanview Corporation’s board members! Every single one of them is a total powerhouse in business!“]
“Damn. Mr. Mitchell really pulled out all the stops! He brought the big guns just to back up his wife and daughter!”
Charlotte looked thrilled. “Ryan, you love me SO much! I’m so touched!“[
But Ryan wasn’t even listening. He was staring at me with what looked like pure terror flashing across his face.]
