Three days before the wedding, Alexander Kensington said he would take me to see the wedding house, but he took me to a small rental house with a monthly rent of $600.
I couldn't believe it: "You want us to get married here?"
Alexander said confidently, "Why, do you dislike it?"
"Sophia, I'm still in the struggle stage. As long as you accompany me to start from scratch, I will definitely let you live in a villa and live a good life in the future."
I still felt something was wrong, so I gently advised him:
"But we are getting married after all, which is a major event in life. Are you sure you want to rent a house?"
Alexander was impatient. "Sophia Rossi, don't look down on rental housing. And now is the best test for you. Women should not be too materialistic, otherwise no man will like them."
Before leaving, he did not forget to say:
"By the way, the rent is 600 a month, don't forget to give me 300."
Three days later, I accidentally saw him buying a villa worth 300 million US dollars for Isabella at the real estate transaction center with a wave of his hand.
Isabella Dubois hugged his arm and smiled happily, "Brother Alexander, if your fiancée knew that you were so generous to me and asked you to split the rent with her, would she be mad to death?"
Alexander sneered:
"She can only afford cheap goods and live in public housing. This is the test she deserves if she wants to marry into our Kensington family, a wealthy family."
I laughed. You little Kensington family, and my dad are not fit to polish their shoes, yet you pretend to be in front of me.
I made a phone call:
"Dad, you promised to help the Kensington family with that cooperation a few days ago for my sake. Cancel it now."
……
In the bustling real estate trading center, Alexander was surrounded and congratulated by people like the moon surrounded by stars.
"As expected of Mr. Kensington, he is very generous. He bought a villa worth 300 million US dollars in just 10 minutes. It is really beyond our reach!"
"This Isabella should be your girlfriend, right? Mr. Kensington is so nice to his girlfriend!"
Isabella was wearing a white dress and looked at the man next to her with a sweet smile.
"You misunderstood. Brother Alexander is my childhood sweetheart. He is not my boyfriend..."
"Because it was my birthday and I complained to him that the house I lived in was too small, he gave me this villa as a birthday present."
Although she was explaining, her eyes were full of superiority.
She took Alexander's arm proactively and skillfully, and the two of them looked a perfect match.
"Oh, it's all my fault. I didn't expect Mr. Kensington to be so generous. He gave his friends a villa as a gift!"
"If it's a girlfriend, wouldn't it be even more pampering?"
"I wonder if Mr. Kensington is still in need of friends?"
Alexander was wearing a welltailored suit worth millions, and he looked like a completely different person from his former self who was unkempt and pretended to be poor.
As soon as he appeared on the stage, he became a legend in the entire real estate transaction center.
He spent 300 million US dollars in minutes to buy a topnotch villa.
It also led to this wealthy villa area becoming a hot topic.
Listening to the exclamations and congratulations around him, Alexander raised the corners of his lips:
"My girlfriend isn't that easy to deal with."
He said a few words in a cool and concise manner, then stood up and left with Isabella: "Excuse me."
Until his figure completely disappeared in the real estate transaction hall, I still clenched my fists tightly and didn't come to my senses.
"Ms. Rossi, are you still buying this villa?"
The salesperson's voice came softly, and I shook my head, "No."
I forced myself to stand up, but my heart was still aching and I felt suffocated by being deceived.
The reason I showed up at the real estate transaction hall was because I couldn't bear to use the $600 rental house as a wedding house.
I thought of buying this villa in my father's name and giving it to us.
When the time comes, you can find any excuse, such as winning the lottery, or saving a rich man and that person is repaying you.
After all, I have never been short of money.
Alexander really loves me.
Every time we cross the road, he always lets me walk on the innermost, safest side.
Every time we eat together, he would take the initiative to pick up my favorite dishes.
He can even remember my menstrual period accurately.
He would save three months’ worth of breakfast money to buy me a birthday cake.
Even though he usually asks me to split the rent and is a bit stingy, I still subconsciously make excuses for him.
Understand how difficult it is for him.
I believe Alexander is just temporarily in trouble. He has potential and can help me live a good life in the future.
That's why I took care of him, even though I was poor, I had a strong sense of selfesteem.
But I didn't expect to encounter this scene here.
Alexander is not some poor selfmade guy at all.
He was the young master of the wealthy family Kensington, but during the three years we were in love, he deliberately pretended to be poor in front of me.
What made me even more angry was that he bought a villa worth 300 million US dollars for Isabella without blinking an eye.
But he even asked me to split the $600 rent.
Do you really think I'm a sucker?
After leaving the real estate transaction center, I immediately called my assistant:
"Go and help me investigate Alexander. I want all her real information."
Half an hour later, the assistant sent an electronic document to my email.
It was filled with Alexander's information.
It turned out that Alexander's father was the Kensington family who came to my house repeatedly a few days ago and almost knelt down in front of my father to beg him to agree to invest.
The information sent by the assistant also includes various photos.
Alexander spent a lot of money on Isabella in the bar box.
For Isabella's birthday, he gave her a plethora of luxury bags.
Even Isabella's Moments were filled with photos of the gifts he had given her.
Even the only time I received a fake Chanel from Alexander.
It was also because she gave the real thing to Isabella, and then she used the invoice and the fake thing to make me happy.
The funny thing is that I felt sorry for Alexander because he knew nothing and got cheated, so I used my own pocket money to pay for a year's rent and two months' living expenses.
After watching the whole thing, I admit that I was pissed off and laughed.
I stared at the last line of words, which were Alexander's original words at the real estate transaction center:
"Sophia, she is so worthless, she only knows how to pay for things, she can only use cheap goods, and she is only worthy of living in public housing. If she wants to marry into our Kensington family, this is the test she deserves."
I still couldn't help but tears in my eyes.
Even though I gave so much, my selfrighteous love only moved myself.
In Alexander's opinion, I'm just shamelessly trying to get what I want.
But now, I didn’t have the patience to act with him, so I just sent a text message.
"Alexander, we break up."
After sending the text message, I didn’t even bother to reply to the rental house. I just asked my assistant to go over there and throw all the things into the trash can.
I don't want anything related to Alexander anymore.
Two hours later, Alexander's phone calls came like a bombardment.
"Sophia, why are you so mad again? Our wedding is in three days. Don't you know how busy I am now?"
"To make money for you, to give you a good life, and to let you drive a sports car sooner."
"I'm working overtime like a beast every day. Do you think I'm idle?"
"It's already this late and you're still breaking up. If you really dare to break up, stop pretending to be nice to me and pack up your things and get out!"
He said all these words in one breath, without even giving me a chance to refute or explain, and just hung up.
I watched the video on my laptop in silence.
That was also a live broadcast sent by the private detective in real time.
After hanging up the phone, Alexander threw his phone aside and pulled Isabella, who was trying on a wedding dress, against the wall and continued to kiss her deeply.
"Your girlfriend broke up with you, and you don't even bother to comfort her? And..."
Isabella whispered in his ear:
"Brother Alexander, I'm wearing your fiancée's wedding dress and doing it with you here. What if it gets dirty and she finds out tomorrow?"
"What if they find out?"
Alexander sneered:
"She loves me so much. I'm so poor, but she doesn't plan to break up with me even though I'm paying for you. Even if I do it with you right under her nose, she will still marry me with tears in her eyes."
"After all, the only chance a poor woman like her can take is to marry me to turn her life around. Do you think she's really stupid? Women like this are very smart. If I become a wealthy family in the future, she will be the wife of a wealthy family."
They were tangled up in the fitting room.
But I didn't have the patience to read on.
He pretended to be poor and deceived me for three years, and then asked me to split the rent, treating me like a dog.
Now he is having an affair with another woman before my wedding and even soiled my old wedding dress.
You really think I'm easy to bully.
I remained calm and rational throughout the process. I downloaded the live video sent by the private detective and then forwarded it to social media.
Half an hour later, the video went viral on the Internet.
Some people recognized Alexander.
"Oh my god, isn't this the prince of the Kensington family?"
"I didn't expect him to be such a jerk. I heard from them that the wedding was in three days, but he was cheating on his fiancée with another woman!"
“Is this how rich people play?”
"I recognized him. Isn't this Mr. Kensington the rich secondgeneration who bought a villa worth 300 million US dollars at the real estate transaction center with a wave of his hand that day?"
"It seems that the person who accompanied him to the real estate transaction center was also this cheating woman. It turns out that they had been having an affair for a long time..."
In just 10 minutes, the video received 99+ comments.
Many enthusiastic netizens tagged me below.
"Spread it quickly so that the deceived girl can see it."
"Alexander's girlfriend, come here quickly, your boyfriend is cheating on you!"
"And he's been pretending to lie to you. Quickly kick this scumbag out."
Most of those avatars and nicknames are of kind girls.
I was deeply moved when I saw it.
He directly posted a comment using a secondary account: "I saw it, thank you everyone, I have broken up with the scumbag, I wish him and the scumbag woman to have a son soon and have many children and grandchildren."
Just after the comment was posted, the door was kicked open.
Sitting in the office, I looked up and met Alexander's bloodshot eyes.
His eyes were bulging with anger and he rushed over with his cell phone in hand.
"Sophia, look what you've done!"
"Do you know that this will destroy me and Isabella?"
Alexander's first reaction when he saw the video was panic, and he came to me in a hurry.
"I saw your comment, I know this video was definitely posted by you, delete it immediately!"
I didn't admit that I did it.
But Alexander's eyes were red, and he held my shoulders tightly, with hatred in his eyes.
"I know, you've already figured out that I'm pretending to be poor, right?"
"Sophia, how can you be so cruel and do such a thing? If you have any opinions, why do you have to come to me? Post the video online. Do you want Isabella to live?"
I sneered.
“Since you dare to do it, why are you afraid of others posting it?”
"Didn't you say that what you did was honorable and there was nothing you dare not say openly?"
Alexander was stunned. This was the time when our relationship was at its best, and he made these promises to me over and over again.
He also said he would never lie to me.
Always be true to me and always put me first.
But these words are all bullshit.
"I can explain."
Alexander's voice was hoarse and a little stiff. "We were drunk that day, and I mistook Isabella for you..."
"You know, Isabella has always been my friend. I don't have any feelings for her. I treat her like a brother. If something happens to us, how can you still be there?"
This is ridiculous talk again.
I said it in a highsounding manner, as if I was being unreasonable and making a big deal out of nothing.
But he knew better than anyone that these were all bullshit excuses.
They didn’t just have everything happen.
Also enjoying the pleasure of having a secret affair.
I stared at him with a sneer, "Alexander, you finally admitted that you lied to me for three years."
I looked into his eyes and asked word by word:
"I just want to know, why?"
Why can't you show your true self in front of me?
Why do you have to pretend to be poor and say you have a gambling father and a sick mother?
Every year, he has to send his salary back to his hometown, and he even needs my financial support to make ends meet.
He obviously doesn't lack money.
Obviously, he looks like... he still loves me.
When he was at his poorest, I also pretended to be poor and homeless.
He rented me a house for $600.
He also said that he didn’t have much money now, so he was just living in a rented house for the time being.
When you make millions in the future, buy me a big villa.
But why could he lie to me so confidently?
Alexander sneered when he heard this. There was no trace of guilt in his eyes, and he raised his proud head slightly.
"Sophia, don't you know that I am the next generation leader of the Kensington family?"
"Everyone in Metropolis City knows about the wealthy Kensington family. I have been a secondgeneration rich since I was born. The girls who approach me are all after my money. I think you are pretty good and suitable to be married home to continue the family line. Pretending to be poor is just a test for you."
Alexander looked at me indifferently, and suddenly reached out and touched my face, with a bit of pity in his expression.
"Sophia, you are a smart girl. Now that you have seen the truth, you should cooperate obediently. Only then can you marry into a wealthy family and become a socialite as you wish."
"But now that you've exposed everything, it's meaningless."
I coldly slapped his hand away and took a step back in disgust.
Taking out alcohol wipes for disinfection in front of him made Alexander's face turn pale with anger.
"Sophia, what do you mean?"
I didn't even raise my head. "It's nothing, I just think you're dirty."
“Sophia!”
Alexander stared at me with gritted teeth. He has always been an impatient person, but his patience is limited.
At this moment, he threatened me with his fist:
"I advise you to be more sensible and delete that video immediately."
"Otherwise, I will make you regret it."
I couldn't help but sneer. I was never afraid of being scared.
I really don’t know what regret is.
Not only did I not delete the video, but I actively forwarded it to my family group and asked my parents and relatives and friends to follow suit.
Overnight, the video's popularity increased instead of decreasing.
The heroine of the video, Isabella, climbed onto the rooftop that night and threatened to commit suicide by jumping off the building.
Alexander was so angry that he called me more than a dozen times that night and threatened me to delete the video.
I turned off the computer directly, covered myself with the quilt and had a good sleep.
Early the next morning, I was awakened by the bombardment of videos and messages.
Even my best friend who was busy on a business trip saw it and frantically reminded me:
"Sophia, check the news. You're famous and people are scolding you like crazy!"
I was confused and opened the hot news.
A huge title appeared before my eyes:
#Sophia, a scheming woman! She used dirty tricks to marry into a wealthy family, forcing the victim to almost jump off a building and commit suicide! #
I was stunned for a moment, not understanding how I could be so dirty.
I continued reading and finally understood what was going on.
It's easy to guess that the mastermind behind hiring internet trolls to spread this negative news is Alexander.
In order to get revenge on me, he spread rumors about me online, saying that I was a gold digger and had been in a relationship with him for three years just for his money.
He just wanted to test me, but he didn't expect to be retaliated against.
Even the friends around him were plotted against.
The enthusiastic netizens who were full of sympathy for me yesterday suddenly changed their attitude 180 degrees.
"How could Sophia be such a bitch? She is poor and a bitch, and her methods are despicable. It's disgusting."
"As expected, there must be something hateful about pitiful people. I was wondering how a rich secondgeneration guy like Alexander, who is rich and handsome, could possibly cheat on his wife? He has no idea what kind of woman he wants."
"Another scheming woman who wants to marry into a wealthy family. Those who harm others will not have a good death."
……
The internet is flooded with abuse and accusations against me.
They believed the rumors spread by Alexander who hired internet trolls.
Even the intimate video of Alexander and Isabella having an affair in the fitting room yesterday was whitewashed.
Because I am a gold digger.
This scene was deliberately planned by synthesizing the video.
He also said that I drugged Alexander and Isabella and tricked them into taking this video.
Alexander even spoke from his own experience:
"Otherwise, think about it yourself. How could it be such a coincidence that I just cheated on her and she immediately filmed the video and saw it clearly. Isn't this a sting operation?"
This remark immediately angered many righteous netizens.
Many of them found out my identity, my unit, and even my license plate number.
I haven't been to work these two days and my car is parked downstairs of the rental house.
"Ms. Rossi, the car has several holes in it and is a total loss."
The assistant took a video for me and couldn't help but sigh.
"Should we call the police?"
But I just thought calmly for a while and said, "Okay, but I want to wait until the loss is more serious so that they can sentence me more severely."
I was cyberbullied, it was an invisible smoke and war.
I can't let them just end up like that.
At least Alexander, the mastermind behind this, must pay the price.
I ignored the cyberbullying on my phone, turned off my phone, returned to my private villa, and enjoyed a threeday vacation.
The nanny filled the bathtub with roses, I took a comfortable bath, and then went to play golf.
When I came back from my satisfying game, I found that Alexander had called me via video.
He was standing downstairs of the rental house, questioning me angrily:
"Sophia, you haven't come back these days. Which wild man have you been looking for?"
"I know you're angry, but you've gone too far this time. Where did you throw all those things? And what about the gift I gave you?"
"Don't think that if you pretend to run away from home I will regret it and beg you to come back."
"If you still want to marry into a wealthy family and become a socialite, I'll give you 15 minutes to come downstairs in the community immediately."
I glanced at the time and nodded, "It's indeed time to meet."
It's time to settle the accounts in the autumn.
When the driver drove me to the downstairs of the community, I sent the location to the family group and tagged my father.
"I'm here."
“Sophia!”
As soon as I got out of the car, a loud noise came at me and Alexander looked displeased.
"I knew you were reluctant to give up the opportunity to marry into a wealthy family, but you still came here obediently."
"Now you know my true identity. I am the prince of the Kensington family. As long as you beg for mercy from me, admit your mistake to Isabella, and delete the video, I will forgive you."
Alexander spoke in a condescending tone, as if he was giving me a rare favor.
"Maybe I'll be merciful and give you two more rental houses, freeing you of the rent."
I laughed. This whole building belongs to me. Do I need someone like you to waive rent for me?
Seeing me sneer, Alexander's expression suddenly changed.
"Don't you go online? Don't you see how those people are scolding you now?"
"Sophia, how can you be so shameless? If you don't apologize, I will let the netizens scold you even more. By then, you will be pelted with rotten eggs when you go out to buy groceries."
My voice turned cold.
"You are the one who should apologize."
"Alexander, you've lied to me for three years. We should settle these accounts."
"To tell you the truth, you are the prince of the Kensington family, and I am the eldest daughter of the Rossi family."
Alexander sneered as if he had heard a joke.
"Just you?"
"Who's daughter would live in a $600 rental house? And willing to pay AA with me? Don't be ridiculous."
"Do you know who the eldest daughter of the Rossi family is? She is the only daughter of a top wealthy family. And you can't even lie."
Isabella came out from behind him and, in front of me, took his hand as if to assert her sovereignty.
"Sophia, I'm different from you, a girl from the slums. My family is rich and powerful, and we're going to recruit a soninlaw in the future. I will definitely not compete with you for brother Alexander."
"We are just good friends, don't misunderstand me. Today, you just need to kneel down and apologize to me, and this matter will be over."
Alexander touched her head tenderly, "Our Isabella is still kind."
I sneered, "You are from a wealthy family, but even if your father comes, he won't be fit to polish his shoes."
Alexander completely lost his patience when he saw me talking nonsense.
He held my head and forced me to apologize to Isabellakneel.
"How can a poor woman like you who came out of the slums compare to a little princess like Isabella? You are not afraid of making such a big statement."
"If you want to blame someone, blame your own bad luck. You were not born into a good family, and now you have to kneel down and kowtow to others."
