Yes, confessions.

She told Mike she regretted her decision and wanted to accept his pursuit–I saved all these messages.
On the third day of this citywide scandal, I organized all the materials and uploaded them online with a capt-
ion: “I will forever reserve the right to sue Ms. Emily for invasion of privacy, unfounded defamation, and failu- re to repay debts.”
Mike, who had been holding back for days, immediately reposted my post.
“My wife and I have a great relationship. Our contractual marriage was my promise and protection to her. I wanted to tell her she had the right to love me and the freedom to leave, but whatever her choice, I would wait for her. I’m also attaching the complete screenshot of our conversation that day. I’m the one who loves her so desperately–she will always be my queen.”
Unexpectedly, Mr. Chen, who rarely went online, registered a new account that same day specifically to rep-
ost my statement.
“I was unaware of her relationship with Mr. Mike. What prompted me to accept Ms. Sarah’s interview request was her sense of justice. Revealing the truth is a journalist’s most basic quality. After interacting with her, I found Ms. Sarah’s views incisive and unique. She has her own insights and perspectives on future market development. Conversing with her was very enjoyable, and I’m also heartened to see today’s young people have more ideas than our
generation.”
With Mr. Chen speaking up, many business leaders no longer held back..
They reposted to support me, shattering the rumor that I had risen through connections.
The tide immediately turned. “So it turns out the intern had designs on someone else’s husband?”
“How shameless–spreading rumors to sabotage someone’s marriage because you couldn’t get the man?”
“I don’t care about anything else–when is she going to pay back the money? $20,000+ makes her practically
a deadbeat!”
“Am I the only one heartbroken that my husband is such a simp? I can’t accept this!”
In an instant, Emily’s reputation was completely ruined.
Journalism values factual accuracy above all.
After this incident, it became impossible for Emily to enter journalism again.
Of course, Mike’s reputation as a devoted fool was also cemented.
When I returned to work, the colleagues who had gossiped behind my back about my husband cheating all
came to greet me.
“Oh Sarah, you were too low–key before. We had no idea your husband was Mike!”

“Mike is my idol! When I entered this field, I dreamed of interviewing him one day. I’m so envious of you.”
“No need to be envious,” I smiled slightly. “My husband isn’t as great as you think. He’s always showing off, constantly trying to please me, making me constantly worried he’s done something wrong. I can’t even feel pleased about it anymore.”

Later, I actually sued Emily. The court forced her to repay the money she owed me, plus compensation for defaming my reputation.
After that, I never saw Emily again.
Two years later, Mike and I held our wedding ceremony.
At the wedding, he got drunk and kept talking nonsense when we got home.
“I spotted you right away. That little mouth of yours rattling away like a machine gun–it shot straight through my heart.”
“When I heard you cursing out Emily, I almost wanted to build a shrine to your mouth and burn three incense
sticks to it daily.”
? No, that’s unnecessary!
A few days later, I was shopping at the market when I unexpectedly ran into Emily.
She was holding hands with three children, dressed sloppily, her figure bloated–nothing like a female lead.
The three children, about a year old, were crying and making a racket.
One had mucus running down his face, apparently having just fallen. His clothes were dirty, and Emily couldn
‘t even clean him up properly.
After a moment, a tall man walked over.
He was over six feet tall and good–looking, but his posture was hunched, and his face showed impatience.
“You’re so slow. You can’t even take care of the children properly.”
Emily became angry. She let go of the children’s hands, put her hands on her hips, and started yelling.
“What do you mean, Tom? When I found out I was pregnant with triplets, I wanted to terminate the pregnan- cy, but you insisted on having them. You said you’d take care of all four of us. Now look–you got out of pris- on and can’t even find a job. I can’t count on you for the children at all. You’ve never taken care of them for a single day, and now you have the nerve to blame me?”
If Emily hadn’t called him by name, I would have forgotten there was a male lead in this novel whom I had
never met.

Looking at him now… he wasn’t even that impressive.
The current Tom clearly hadn’t been “healed,”

Hearing Emily’s words, he started cursing. “Did I force you to marry me or beg you to sleep with me? If
look down on me, just say it straight. Don’t beat around the bush.”

“Back then you were always begging that rich kid for money, with no shame at all. Now that he’s dumped you, you start throwing tantrums at me. Nobody’s going to spoil you anymore!”
“Tom, get your facts straight! Who was I borrowing money for?!”
They argued more and more fiercely.
The three children cried in unison.
Passersby gave them a wide berth.
Just then, Mike came over with a fish in his hand. “What are you looking at?”
“Nothing.”

Mike didn’t think much of it and took my hand. “I’ll make you boiled fish tonight. This time I’ve received expe- rt guidance. Your husband is going to show you what it means to reach new heights!”
I laughed softly and turned to kiss Mike’s cheek.
“What’s wrong?” he asked.
I shook my head. “Nothing.”
“I just think… some people are dealt a great hand but ruin it through their ill intentions. The female lead has been reduced to an extra.”
“And some people who start as extras can rise to become true queens through their own efforts.”
Mike squeezed my hand. “You’re absolutely right, my queen.”
