Chapter 8 Chapter 8 My company's livestream link brought in tons of haters ready to tear me apart . Watching my screen fill up with the nastiest insults , I felt absolutely nothing and just started talking . I pulled out a stack of credit card statements and asked the viewers , " You know what these are for ? " Nobody in the comments gave a shit , but I kept going . " Take a good look - these receipts add up to six hundred million dollars . Every penny was spent by my foster brothers during their twenty years in my family . " " And that's not even counting their food , clothes , housing , or all the gifts my mom and grandma gave them over the years . " " If my family really abused them , how the hell would they have access to spend that kind of money ? Why would we give them executive positions at our company ? " " The fact that they got kicked out shows they did something to betray my family and disrespect me as CEO . " " Oh , and about that so - called house manager Ryan ? He's actually the father of the gold - digger my brothers were both screwing . " " And that gold - digger isn't some innocent college student - she's a con artist who played my brothers to get their money . " " As for disowning my father , that's true . But HE'S the one who brought it up first . " " I'm not embarrassed to show you this security footage from my company's centennial party last year , where my father and foster brothers verbally and physically abused me to protect their sugar baby . This kind of thing happened constantly . " " Tell me - what sister , what daughter wouldn't be heartbroken after treatment like this ? " " That's all I've got to say . If you don't believe me , let those people I'm talking about sue me for slander . " " You internet trolls got manipulated by Tiffany and her crew , so you mindlessly attacked me . " " I won't go after you for the harassment and death threats from before . " " But the main culprits ? I'm coming for all of them. " " Get ready for my lawyers ' letters , assholes . See you in court . " After I finished , I noticed my livestream had over a hundred million viewers , so I took advantage of the traffic to showcase our company's newest products . Using my controversy and today's massive audience , I got free advertising worth millions . After the livestream ended , I bought a bunch of bot accounts . Overnight , public opinion completely flipped . Now I was the victim and my foster brothers and Tiffany were getting canceled . Their streaming accounts got banned , and every platform blacklisted them . Even when they tried using fake identities , they'd get recognized and banned instantly . They had defamed me , and despite spending tons of money on lawyers and connections , they still couldn't escape prison time . Because they'd messed with ME . Meanwhile , my company's new products became bestsellers after that day , constantly selling out , and our stock price recovered completely . Deanna Dlan ? Simple : Bankrupt Them All ! 87.5 % Chapter 8 Before their court case was even decided , Tiffany and Ryan ended up murdered by my foster brothers and dad . Turns out they'd finally discovered Tiffany and Ryan's con game and realized they'd been played . But it was way too late - their futures were already destroyed . So my foster brothers and dad decided to go all in and kill Tiffany and Ryan . In the end , both foster brothers and Dad got life sentences and will spend the rest of their lives behind bars . My company Apex Industries kept growing stronger with higher profits every year . Two years later , my net worth surpassed even Grandma's , making me America's new richest woman . And that's how the Brielle Hartwell empire began .
