The Bound Between Us

Chapter 170

They teased each other relentlessly, every word as honest as it got. Their past conflicts were real, and the gradual dissolving of their estrangement now was also real.

Gianna lit a cigarette, took a skilled puff, and Anastasia asked, “When did you start to smoke?”

“I can’t remember, probably several years ago.” Gianna said self-deprecatingly “I’ve always been unable to get pregnant, which has been really tough. I had no one to talk to, so I relied on this to unwind,”

As Gianna began to share all her issues with Anastasia, their relationship became even closer. Blood ties were strange like that. Even after incompatible pasts, when hardship struck, it was always family who stuck around.

Gianna opened her phone to see Joey’s river jumping video ranking first on trending topics. In just an hour, there were over ten thousand comments and nearly a hundred thousand likes.

Gianna clicked into the comment section. Netizens were extremely polarized, some criticizing her as a heartless woman, while others criticized Joey

Those criticizing Gianna didn’t mince words. Most of those bashing Joey were women, especially stay- at-home moms. They sympathized with Gianna and condemned Joey.

Their marriage lasted for eight years, six of which Joey spent cheating. His child was already in kindergarten, only for him to find out the child wasn’t his. This caused him to threaten to jump into the river to force Gianna to forgive him. What a jerk.

Anastasia was also reading the comments and said, “Most people are swayed by public opinion because they don’t know the full story. Gianna, don’t worry about it

Cyberbullying could ruin a person, and Gianna was emotionally fragile. These harsh words could be the last straw that broke her.

Reading the comments from the netizens criticizing her, Gianna said, “Anastasia, youre night. They don’t know the full story. I’ll make sure they do.” Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Anastasia realized what Gianna was about to do and asked, “Are you sure about this?”

“I won’t tolerate this injustice, nor will forgive Joey. This is the only option left. I won’t let this marriage tamish my reputation, the jerk deserves to be punished.”

Gianna immediately created a new account and began to clarify the truth about her marriage with Joey online. She posted evidence of Joey’s betrayal, including receipts from hotels where he met his lover, and pointed out that although the Edmunds family had previously looked down on her for her infertility, the problem now lay with Joey.

When a woman decided to fight back, there was nowhere for a man to hide.

Netizens quickly sided with Gianna after seeing her evidence and condemned Joey’s hypocrisy. Netizens were also keen investigators, quickly finding out that Joey was a hospital director. They found the hospital’s Twitter account and left messages criticizing Joey’s unethical behavior.

Gianna’s move caught Joey, who had just woken up in the hospital, off guard. He received a call from the hospital administration, telling him to take a leave of absence and not to come to work for a while.

The hospital quickly issued a statement suspending Joey’s position and duties. Joey, in his hospital room, was furious and started throwing things around.

Carmen heard the noise and walked in. “Joey, what happened?”

“That bitch Gianna, she’s gone too far. She’s spreading rumors online, and the hospital has suspended me,” Joey said, revealing his true colors and cursing Gianna.

“What?!” Carmen was shocked. ‘How could Gianna do this? Has she really decided not to forgive you? What about your three houses? Joey, you can’t divorce Gianna. If you do, we’ll lose the houses.”

Even now, Carmen was still thinking about Gianna’s three houses.

Gianna was an only child. After marrying into the Edmunds family, it was assumed that Gianna’s properties would belong to them.
