Out Of The Shadows Tilda’s Brilliant Second Life novel Chapter 105

Chapter 105 My Sister, Tilda

Andy spoke coldly, “I think I get what the Jensons are trying to do.”

The whole lawsuit blew up because of Wade.

And only he could untangle it.

Everyone was aware. They knew Wade had to handle this carefully to minimize the fallout.

Tilda and Andy guessed instantly.

Facing the crowd packed below and countless cameras, Wade spoke with calm composure

Light seemed to shine around him, highlighting the sharp features inherited from both Russell and Blair.

Talented beyond his years.

Even as a young man, he carried the aura of someone in high power.

He laid out the entire misunderstanding the cause, the sequence of events–clearly.

He even presented testimony from people at Orica University who knew about it back then.

Everything was logical.

Convincing.

Then, a reporter asked a pointed question.

“Mr. Wade, according to you, this all started as a misunderstanding. Mr. Jenson, out of concern for you, misjudged Ms. Tilda.

“When you met Ms. Tilda, was her fainting caused by breaking your record, making it hard for you to react? Or was there another reason?”

The microphone was handed to Wade.

He met every probing gaze, one by one.

Wade took a slow, steady breath.

“There are two reasons. But the other reason … I can’t say.

“This is mostly my fault. My dad fainted after seeing Tilda, and on top of that, she broke my record. That’s why I felt I had to get answers from her.”

Wade stepped back, mirroring Russell exactly.

In front of countless cameras, he bowed deeply.

“Here, I sincerely apologize to Tilda and to her friend, Una.

“I offered this apology from the start. You didn’t want to accept it.

“So… then, by your terms, in front of the whole nation, I hope this apology is something you can accept!”

Below, cameras clicked, video cameras whirred, and the crowd murmured and shifted.

Wade quietly clenched his fists, pressing his nails into his palms.

He gritted his teeth, letting the pain sharpen his senses and bring back his focus.

This… this should be enough.

It should minimize the harm Tilda caused the Jensons.

I… no, the entire Jensons knew the truth.

I had told a massive lie, but it sounded like the truth.

Just a few details were shifted.

The most terrifying lies in this world aren’t distortions.

They’re the ones that speak the truth–so no one can call you out.

Except that you know.

You know it’s a lie.

It’s the kind of lie that someone with a conscience, morals, education, and a sense of dignity cannot accept.

And it’s the line I myself cannot cross in my heart.

But I know that if I didn’t do this, the Jensons wouldn’t survive this storm.

So…

Tilda.

I’m truly sorry.

I’m sorry…

In his mind, Wade knew he was wrong, but for the Jensons, he was willing to lie without hesitation.

Even if it manipulated public opinion and hurt Tilda.

“Damn it! I need my knife!

“My sister, Tilda?! How can Wade say that?!”

Andy was disgusted by this bizarre Jensons.

Even his snacks tasted bland.

Chapter 105 My Sister, Tilda

Tilda’s face was expressionless.

Her eyes grew colder, sharper, cutting right through.

She had long seen through this family’s hypocrisy.

She never held any hope for them.

At Jenson Group, when Dominic and Howard saw the press conference hitting its peak, they immediately mobilized their social media team.

Accounts linked to the family flooded every trending post with comments, likes, and shares, trying to spin the story and keep it from blowing up.

[Seriously? I thought this was huge, but it’s just a misunderstanding?]

[This heiress is way too harsh. Mr. Jenson was just worried about his son–clarify it and move on. Why drag it into a lawsuit?]

[Total waste of resources. Pathetic!]

[Tilda’s still the daughter Mr. Jenson finally found after 19 years! If I were him, I’d be ready to throttle her myself.]

[Mr. Jenson’s apology is so sincere–he’s clearly a great dad. Loves his family, looks sharp, treats his wife right, is rich and powerful, admits when he’s wrong… and Tilda can’t even appreciate it!]

[No way. Misunderstand someone for a second, and that’s okay? Are your morals broken? Especially when this is a daughter missing for 19 years. Any parent would cherish her, not misjudge her. Anyone would flip out!]

Of course, some people disagreed.

But their voices were quickly drowned out by clueless bystanders and the Jensons’s online push.
