Delete, Block, Move On: Your Little Crybaby Upgraded to Untouchable Queen novel Chapter 86

hapter 86

Summer barely had the door open when Tristan pushed past her and rushed inside.[]

“Adeline…”

He burst into the living room, his eyes landing on her sitting motionless on the sofa []

The exhaustion in her eyes and the way they instantly went glacial at the sight of him made his throat tighten. I swear I didn’t know about this morning’s statement,” he said hoarsely.]

Adeline’s face remained expressionless. “And? What exactly did you come here to say?“]

Tristan sat down beside her.[]

Adeline immediately stood and moved to the opposite couch.]]

Tristan didn’t follow. Im releasing my own statement tomorrow to set the record straight.1]

“Set what straight exactly?” Adeline asked, her voice sharp with frost. “Are you going to contradict your mother’s fabrications? Or finally admit to your affair with Evelyn? []

Tristan wanted to say there was never any engagement with Evelyn, no legitimate relationship, that Adeline was his lawful wife, and that the photo of her with a man at a hotel was complete bullshit.[]

Adeline seemed to read his thoughts. Your half–assed explanations will just muddy the waters and create more confusion. You still can’t own up to what you did, can you, Tristan?

Tristan leaned forward. If we get back together, all this gossip will eventually fade away on its own.” 1

Adeline let out a sharp, bitter laugh. Your affair with Evelyn isn’t gossip. The crap your mother tried to smear me with–that’s the gossip. Either tell the whole truth or just shut up.

Tristan fell silent, cornered []

People naturally avoid pain and seek advantage–how could he publicly admit to cheating?]

Summer had been leaning against the wall, listening quietly.[]

She casually interjected, “So, Tristan, you’re confirming that all the accusations your mother made against Adeline this morning were completely made up?“]

Tristan glanced at her.

His dark eyes were somber as a rain–soaked forest.]]

He seemed to recognize what she was doing but chose not to call her out. With a resigned half–smile, he nodded. “Yes.

“Your mother was nearly sent to prison because of Evelyn’s schemes, yet now she’s defending her. Don’t you find that bizarre? Do you think the Granthams put her up to it? Or more specifically, Evelyn did?]]

“Maybe. It’s possible. I don’t know.”

“So you’re saying that’s the most likely scenario?

-Yes 1

“So the whole story is that your mistress was getting slammed online because of that airport video from a few days ago. She was pissed and wanted to clean up her image. So she went to your mother–either through threats or bribes–and together they cooked up these harmful lies about Adeline. Your mother went public with these claims to make Evelyn look innocent while trashing Adeline’s reputation. Is that accurate?]

– Yes []

v.1

After answering. Tristan exhaled deeply Seeing Summer about to continue, he raised his hand. “Counselor, you’ve probably recorded enough for your purposes by now.”

Summer’s expression turned sheepish.]

So he knew

Of course the CEO of Harmonex wasn’t an idiot. She’d been fishing for incriminating statements, and he’d caught on[]

What she hadn’t expected was that he would willingly take the ball. Well, the bastard was finally showing a glimmer of decency…]

Adeline looked at Tristan, her expression complex.[]

“Let’s grad Hus.”

1 we don’t end it, Evelyn will never let go. Today she’s manipulating your mother to trash me. What about tomorrow? Or the day after that? You may not be killing me directly, but I’m dying because of you–what’s the difference?”

“Whether you genuinely regret it ur sill have feelings for toe–It doesn’t matter What’s done is done. We can never go back. What’s the point of the three of us staying tangled up in this mess?]

“Orice were officially over, she’ll have no reason to keep coming after me And whatever happens between you two will be none of my business

“Trunk about it”

A video response where she faced the accusations head–on!]

The Internet exploded again within minutes.[]

Users frantically shared it, gathering like spectators to a celebrity boxing match, consuming the high–society drama as if it were the season finale of their favorite show

In the video, Adeline appeared polished but understated. With remarkable composure, she recounted her history with Tristan–how they fell in love in high school, overcame family resistance to get married, and how Evelyn had eventually come between them. Her delivery was natural and measured, like someone finally setting the record straight []

She didn’t immediately attack Amanda’s claims.[]

Though not aggressive, her account was loaded with context.[]

They’d met at seventeen–meaning they connected as teenagers. Without directly addressing the childhood engagement claim, she made an implied point: why would a high school senior be romantically involved with a child instead of someone his own age?

The “obstacles” they overcame referred to Amanda’s disapproval and difficult demands.[]

By mentioning the timing of the affair and noting that contact with the Granthams only began recently through business, she undermined the claim of a long–standing family connection.

Only after establishing this context did she present her evidence.[]

She had her own text messages, recordings, photos, and documentation.[]

She revealed the full story behind the “exorbitant compensation” demand–it had been mutually agreed upon after Amanda learned of her son’s affair. It wasn’t Adeline refusing to divorce unless paid.]

Regarding the hotel accusation, she noted that Amanda had conveniently edited the surveillance footage. But Adeline had obtained video of her leaving the hotel just nine minutes later–barely enough time to take off a coat, let alone have an affair []

The final piece of evidence was Tristan’s own admission that his mother’s statements were fabrications.[]

Despite everything she revealed, she still left Tristan one last shred of dignity by withholding the most damning evidence–the affair recordings and compromising photos.[]

Public opinion shifted dramatically in her favor.]]

And as the internet was exploding with reactions, Adeline quietly returned to her apartment, packed a small bag and drove out of the city at 11 PM]

What she didn’t notice were two vehicles following at a careful distance.]]
