Revenge On My First Love

Chapter 523 The Old Riley Was Dead

Chapter 523 The Old Riley Was Dead

Sophia had gained an insight into human nature. At that time, she finally understood that Lily didn't

have common ground with her.

Then Sophia took out her cell phone and called the police. "I want to have a physical examination to

prove that I'm innocent!"

People there were stunned.

It didn't matter whether there was an affair or not. The photographs had been taken, so she couldn't

avoid being stigmatized no matter how hard she cleared things up.

However, no one expected Sophia could be so tough and intend to go to the police station for a

physical examination.

"Sophia!" cried Drake.

Drake looked at her sorrowfully. He could have protected her.

Sophia looked at him. "Drake, I know you trust me. But it's not enough if you are the only person who

believes me in the world. Some people persist in smearing me, but I will not be okay with that."

"Besides, people will bear negative opinions against you if I cannot prove my innocence. So I'll do it not

just for me."

"No, I disagree!" said Drake.

He was quite clear that it would be rather disgraceful and humiliating for Sophia if she had to do the

physical examination to prove herself.

It was not a big deal if other people thought that his wife had betrayed him.

As long as he knew that it was not the case, he didn't care about what they said.

"No, I have to!" said Sophia.

"Sophia!"

"Drake, I love you so much. You know it. And I won't let anyone smear you. So I must prove my

innocence."

The Old Riley was not out of danger, and Sophia left with police officers.

Drake looked at Lily and Rashad. "Finally, you showed your true colors. Lily, Rashad, we shall see it!"

Then he left.

He wanted to be with Sophia instead of letting her face the trouble alone.

When he came out, crowds of journalists rushed towards him.

"Mr. Riley, it's said that your wife met your cousin at night privately. What do you think of it?"

"Mr. Riley, they said that you were actually 'the third party'. Do you have anything to say?"

"Mr. Riley, would you divorce your wife to let them be together?"

Questions came out one after another, and each of them was devastating.

It was particularly the case for someone like Drake Riley, who was quite influential in Sealand.

His eyes were as piercing as those of a hawk. When he glanced at everyone in front of him, the

reporters took a few steps back, for fear that he might kill them in a fit of rage.

He replied, "Today, I answer your questions only once. I'm not 'the third party'. And there's no third

party between my wife and me."

"Moreover, do you think you could take any photos if my wife was really seeing someone else? Think

about it!"

When he was leaving, these people made a path for him automatically, as if they were unable to control

their bodies. They wondered the reason why they did that.

When Drake arrived at the police station, Sophia just finished her body check.

"Sophia, I'm here for you!"

Drake embraced her.

If he had known that something would happen to Sophia, he would not have let her go to the banquet

last night.

Sophia shook her head in calmness. "It's okay. Drake, I don't care what they think of me. I will be

satisfied as long as you trust me in the world." This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Drake kissed her on her forehead. "Sure, I trust you. Sophia, you are everything to me."

Sophia hugged him tightly. She still had Drake with her even though the whole world was against her.

The Lawson family finally made a phone call. Sophia explained what had happened briefly.

Her family all felt very upset when they learned that she had done the physical examination.

"Sophia..."

Drake took her phone and said to those on the other side, "Abbott, Laura, I'm sorry. I failed to protect

her from the trouble."

"Well, you cannot be careful enough to avoid those who want to frame you. It's not your fault!"

Drake would have felt better if they had blamed him. Instead, they comforted him, which made him feel

worse about himself.

"However, it seems that there's a tough battle between you and Rashad. If you need any help, tell us

immediately!"

"Okay, Abbott, Laura, I get it!"

Drake hung up the phone.

Before long, the police station released an official announcement, declaring that they had carried out

examinations and taken the evidence, which proved that Sophia and Rashad had no illicit relationship

with each other.

People were shocked when the announcement was released.

They couldn't believe what had occurred since it would have been impossible to make it if it were

someone else. Sophia must need a lot of courage to do so.

They could not question any further since the official announcement had been released.

Sophia formally received an interview from a media organization, during which she declared firmly, "I

will sue the media that spread rumors to stigmatize the Lawson family and the Riley family. Besides, as

you know, I believe that everyone involved in the fake news related to me in the past will receive their

deserved penalties."

She continued, "However, some people haven't learned their lessons, and they have smeared me

again and again. Then I can only safeguard my legitimate rights by law."

At last, she said, "Those who have hurt me and my family, familiar ones or not, just wait and see. The

policemen will come to arrest you."

As a result, those who had watched the video were all panicking. They wanted to escape. But Sophia

had asked policemen and Drake's fellows to wait on the spot before the video was released.

Instantly, lots of people were arrested and sent to the police stations.

People were all terrified as they didn't know what would happen to them.

Harris Sutton, the mayor of Sealand, attached great importance to the issue. It was reasonable that

they should receive high penalties due to their misdeeds.

However, it would lead to social problems if so many people were put in jail, which was not the proper

solution to the issue.

So those involved were given a chance to redeem themselves with a $10, 000 fine and a criminal

record, which was the result of talking to other people and negotiating with Sophia.

If they behaved properly in the next three years, their criminal records could be removed. If not, their

criminal records would be kept.

Although the country allowed freedom of speech, those who used it to hurt people should be severely

punished.

Gradually, the rumors on the Internet died down.

When Sophia and Drake arrived at the hospital, the doctor gave them a piece of bad news. The Old

Riley was dead, despite all efforts to save him.
