Reborn Heiress: Taking Back What Is Rightfully Hers!-Chapter 627: Misleading Public Opinion
Chapter 627: Misleading Public Opinion
Caroline stood to the side, unsure how to comfort Autumn. Audrey was furious, and Caroline didn’t dare approach.
Autumn’s eyes were red, her face full of resentment. "You’re wrong. She didn’t get all that because of hard work. She got it because she’s manipulative..."
Audrey slapped her again. "Stupid girl! Autumn! We’re done. I’m no longer your agent. Just wait — the company’s going to fire you!"
Audrey knew continuing this conversation was pointless — like talking to a brick wall.
They didn’t see the world the same way, so there was no point trying. Audrey had assumed this was all Caroline’s bad influence, but now she realized Autumn’s twisted thinking had been there all along.
As Audrey stormed out and slammed the door, Autumn was so angry her chest hurt. Audrey had always treated her well, like a big sister — looking out for her and helping her grow.
But now, she’d completely blown it.
Everything was gone.
And it was all that bitch’s fault. If it weren’t for Aurora, how could she have ended up like this?
That thought only made Autumn angrier. She jumped up, grabbed a nearby vase, and smashed it to the floor. "Aaaah! Aurora, go to hell!"
Caroline trembled, silent. The hope she had just seen was gone, along with her future.
What would Aurora think of them now? What would she do? Did she really call the cops?
The thought made Caroline panic. She ran over and grabbed the furious Autumn. "Cousin, what do we do now? What if she really reports us? What then?"
Autumn shoved her hard. Caroline fell right onto the shattered glass. Pain shot up from her backside as she tried to crawl up.
Autumn glared coldly at her. "What? Regretting it now? You think she’ll really call the cops? What if I turn the tables? I can say we were just playing a game... hah. She only made a scene to get Brown’s sympathy — or better yet, Everett’s!"
Caroline’s eyes widened. She hadn’t expected Autumn to recover so fast and come up with such a plan. "That’s a good idea... let’s do that."
She endured the pain and dared not complain — just kept praising Autumn. "Cousin, you’re so smart..."
"Get out. Don’t bother me again!"
Caroline’s face changed, but she left quietly. Autumn slumped onto the couch. Her stomach was empty, but she had no appetite at all.
Just like Caroline said — what if Aurora really called the police?
Would anyone believe her?
No time to hesitate. To protect herself, Autumn quickly opened her chat app and Twitter, and posted:
"Thanks for the concern, everyone, about what happened with Aurora. It was actually just a game between us that people misunderstood. Please don’t be angry or speculate — everything was planned between me and Ms. Aurora, and she agreed to it. Mwah, love you all!"
When Aurora saw the post, she was livid.
Did Autumn really think she’d just forgive her?
Eleanor and Dominic were beside themselves. "That shameless bitch didn’t even bother to call you — just made it up and posted it herself!"
In Autumn’s mind, Aurora had always been easy to talk to — soft-hearted.
So, as Aurora was about to post her own response, Autumn called her.
"Aurora, I’m sorry. Caroline and I were just bored and thought we’d prank you a little. We planned to scare you and then let you go once you woke up. But when we came back in the morning, you were already gone. Please forgive me, okay? Could you help me out and repost my tweet?"
Autumn’s voice was full of fake remorse. Aurora sneered — unbelievable. Shameless.
After everything she’d done, she still wanted forgiveness?
Keep dreaming.
"Miss Autumn, do you think I’m an idiot? Everything you and Caroline said was recorded. It’s clear you planned to hurt me. If I forgive you now, who knows what’ll happen to me next time."
Aurora was shaking with anger, eyes brimming with tears — a mix of pain, betrayal, and fury. "I always treated you as a friend. I never thought you’d hate me this much — enough to commit a crime. If Everett hadn’t come in time, I would’ve starved or frozen to death out there. You had no intention of coming back to help me!"
Autumn sobbed, choking on her words. "No, Aurora, you misunderstood. I never meant to hurt you. I was just being childish and thought it’d be a joke. We didn’t mean to harm you. Please, for old time’s sake — forgive me just this once. If it ever happens again, you can do whatever you want with me."
Her tone was desperate, but Eleanor had heard enough. She grabbed Aurora’s phone.
"Miss Autumn, cut the crap. We already reported you. All the evidence has been handed over to the police. Just wait to be arrested."
Autumn shrieked, "No — please! I didn’t mean any harm!"
Eleanor hung up without another word and told Aurora she should issue a public statement.
Aurora rubbed her aching temples. She felt so let down. She’d always treated people kindly — why did Autumn still choose to do this to her?
Dominic saw how upset she was and gently said, "Aurora, don’t stress over it. Let me handle the statement. You and Eleanor go get some air. Don’t let someone like her ruin your health."
Eleanor pulled Aurora outside. Aurora nodded — she didn’t have the energy to argue.
Using Aurora’s account, Dominic posted a statement, explaining that what happened in the woods wasn’t a game. It was a setup by Autumn and Caroline.
"I recently shot a music video in Boshi. During our trip, we got lost — and worse, someone tried to harm me. I’ll be pursuing criminal charges against Ms. Autumn. Thanks for everyone’s concern. I won’t let anyone who plotted to hurt me get away with it."
The post immediately drew massive attention and support. Countless verified celebrities and writers reposted Dominic’s message.
One well-known celebrity even added:
"Aurora, you’ve been through so much. And that woman even claimed you were in on it to get Brown and Everett’s attention!"
The comments section exploded. Some cursed Autumn. Some even blamed Aurora.
It’s a big world — and sadly, there were still fools out there who believed Autumn, accusing Aurora of being manipulative.
