A few days later, our company’s legal team came rushing to me. “Miss Shirley, Joel is suing us.”
I guess Joel hadn’t expected me to actually take things that far, and out of sheer humiliation and anger, he turned around and sued A51 Mall. He claimed that the whole proposal was a publicity stunt and demanded compensation of a million dollars!
It was unbelievable. The whole situation left people speechless, and netizens mocked him mercilessly.
“Wow, this guy’s really got no shame. Is he that broke after breaking up with the boss’s daughter?”
“I’ve seen shameless people before, but this is a whole new level!”
It seemed like Joel had hit rock bottom. He even started live–streaming, accusing me of being promiscuous and playing with his feelings, but I wasn’t going to let that slide.
I posted screenshots of bank transfers I’d made to him over the years, along with our chat logs, exposing his true colors as a scumbag. To make matters worse for him, he was now facing defamation charges, with no way out.
