Chapter 292 Sophia Collapsed
Everyone didn't understand what Evelyn meant, but they all looked in the direction she was pointing.
The next second, what they saw absolutely shocked everyone.
Suddenly, Sophia's photos appeared on the big screen.
If they were just ordinary photos, everyone wouldn't have been so shocked.
In the photos, Sophia looked completely different from her usual fresh and elegant image. Her makeup was vulgar, and her clothes were revealing.
The backgrounds in the photos showed many places—bars, yachts, sports cars...
And in every photo, she wasn't alone. There were men in the pictures too.
They were intimately close, hugging, and there were even photos of Sophia sitting on someone's lap kissing.
What was even more unbelievable was that the men in the photos were all different people.
Some photos were so explicit they were no different from those trashy pop-up ads.
The banquet hall erupted in chaos.
Sophia's mind went blank, and she felt dizzy.
Where did these photos come from?
Why were these things showing up here!
The Johnsons were shocked, their eyes wide, as if they couldn't accept what they were seeing.
Michael's face turned dark. He stood frozen in place, rage surging through him.
He couldn't believe that the person in the photos was the clean, pure, innocent first love he had cherished.
"Oh my god, is that Sophia in those pictures?"
"The makeup is different, but that face is clearly hers!"
"My god, she's a seasoned player in love!"
"Looking at the photos, they don't seem recent?"
"Right, looking at the buildings in the background, it looks like they were taken abroad."
"Hey, now that you mention it, I remember she went abroad to study!"
"Look, in some photos she looks pretty young, definitely like college age!"
"So young, already messing around with men!"
"It really shocking. With these photos out, you can tell she's been with countless men."
"Her private life is really something."
"Didn't they say she was Mr. Johnson's first love?"
"What a joke! If Mr. Johnson is her first love, then what about all these other men?"
"Oh my, Mr. Johnson is so pitiful. He married someone like this, who's been with who knows how many men."
These comments reached Sophia's ears clearly, one after another.
She was almost going crazy.
"No! These are all fake! Fake! Turn them off! Turn them off!" She screamed hysterically, but no one listened to her.
Everyone was too shocked by what they were seeing to react, and some were watching Sophia with looks of pure entertainment.
This made Sophia even more panicked.
She couldn't turn back time to a few minutes ago to stop all this from happening.
Now she could only instinctively grab Michael's hand and tell him anxiously, "Michael, don't look, don't believe it, these are all fake! Fake!!!
I've never done these things. I don't know where these photos came from. This must be Olivia and them trying to frame me.
They want to ruin our relationship, ruin our engagement. You can't fall for their trap."
Michael didn't speak. He just looked down at her with dark, vicious, cold eyes.
Not far away, Evelyn heard Sophia still talking nonsense and couldn't help but laugh coldly. "Sorry, but these photos are completely real.
I specially had someone investigate and get these from abroad."
She then looked at Michael and said, "Mr. Johnson, Sophia has been with many men without your knowledge. If you don't believe it, you can send people to investigate yourself.
These photos aren't exactly a secret in circles abroad.
I think you trusted her too much in the past and never looked into what she was really doing abroad, right?
If someone truly loved you, how could they marry someone else and even have a child?
Sophia had abortions abroad, and not just once or twice.
Because of the doctor's warning that she might never be able to have children, she had no choice but to have a child with her ex-husband.
What happened after that, everyone knows. She hated her ex-husband, so she divorced him and came back to find you—rich and wealthy—trying to become your wife.
To keep you from knowing about her past, she even had someone delete her abortion records from abroad.
Of course, abortions have consequences.
Too many abortions damaged her body, and her chances of getting pregnant again are very slim.
Mr. Johnson, I forgot to tell you—she might not even be pregnant. She could be lying!"
This news caused another uproar.
"Oh my god, how can there be such a shameless woman in this world? How is she any different from a slut?"
"Mr. Johnson is so pitiful, actually marrying someone like this."
"Pitiful? For a woman like this, he abandoned his own wife. Isn't this karma?"
"How ironic."
"He deserves it, this is karma!"
The guests talked among themselves. Michael couldn't hear what they were saying anymore.
His mind was full of these humiliating photos.
He had thought about this woman for so many years. It turned out that while he was giving his wife the cold shoulder and thinking about her constantly, she was abroad, frequently changing men.
Just thinking about this woman's wild life abroad, sleeping with different men—his dignity as a man, his pride as the president of the Johnson Group, was all being trampled on the ground.
Michael was trembling with anger. He grabbed Sophia and asked through gritted teeth, "Is all this true?!"
"No, it's not..." Sophia was scared by him and quickly shook her head to explain. "Michael, don't listen to them. These are all fake! Believe me, I love you so much. You know what kind of person I am. How could I do such things?
They're deliberately framing us!"
Sophia desperately tried to explain. Michael's eyes were bloodshot, and his usually cold, handsome face showed a hint of ferocity.
At this moment, Evelyn added fuel to the fire, saying, "You're still making excuses, Sophia. I only showed photos because I didn't want to pollute everyone's eyes.
I have surveillance videos on my phone of you having sex with other people in bars.
Mr. Johnson, if you don't believe me, I can send them to you!"
Sophia had done so many bad things. Evelyn wouldn't let her escape so easily!
As soon as she said this, Sophia lost it first.
She screamed, "Don't send it! Don't send it!"
Like she'd lost her mind, she lunged at Evelyn, trying to grab her phone.
Evelyn was prepared and dodged nimbly.
Sophia, due to momentum, fell to the ground herself.
Seeing this, Daniel nearby showed no sympathy and even made a sarcastic comment, "Well, can't keep your cool?"
The guests had been watching Sophia, but after Daniel's comment, they all realized what was going on.
"Looks like all of this is true?"
"I think so too. Otherwise, why would she be so anxious?"
"These days, whether photos or videos are fake can be verified. If she hadn't done it, why would she be so desperate?"
Instantly, everyone looked at Sophia with complete contempt.
"The Brown family used to be considered wealthy, but they raised a daughter like this."
"Truly shameless!"
"If my child dared to do this, I would have kicked her out long ago."
"Only the Johnson family would still want a woman like this."
"The Johnson family is really generous."
The highly sarcastic comments made Amelia furious. Her whole body was shaking with anger.
Her harsh eyes stared at Sophia on the ground.
How dare this woman?
How dare she humiliate the Johnson family like this?
A cheap woman who slept with countless men, after having her fun, actually wanted to marry into the Johnson family!
And they had been deceived, played for fools by her!
Amelia was furious. She immediately rushed over, grabbed Sophia by the hair, and started slapping her wildly.
"Slut! Slut! How dare you ruin Michael's reputation! How dare you disgrace the Johnson family!
We treated you so well, how dare you do this!"
Chase, who usually protected Sophia, was also severely shocked.
In his mind, Sophia had always been pure and harmless, but she turned out to be such a promiscuous woman.
He couldn't accept it for a moment and stood there without moving.
Hayden and the other Johnson family members were barely maintaining their composure at the scene.
With things having gotten to this point, the engagement couldn't possibly continue.
Hayden immediately ordered people to clear the venue.
The guests thought the show was over and prepared to leave.
But then Daniel spoke up: "Don't rush off, everyone. I still have something I haven't shown you yet."
Hearing this, the guests who were about to leave stopped and looked at Daniel, as if waiting for him to drop more bombshells.
Hayden's face looked terrible.
He would not allow anyone to continue making a laughingstock of the Johnson family today.
He sternly rebuked, "Mr. Wilson, things are chaotic enough here today. Please know when to stop and don't go too far!
Are you really trying to make an enemy of the Johnson family?"
Hayden's words were full of warning.
If he were facing anyone else in Emerald City, they might give him some respect.
But standing before him was Daniel.
He had long wanted to stand up for Olivia. How could he back down now because of a few words from Hayden?
