But the internet wasn’t buying this weak little counterattack.
Just as Luna expected, the moment Gwen published the official legal letter on Kaia’s behalf, angry netizens swarmed like sharks.
[Pfft! Think being a lawyer makes you invincible? Go ahead, sue us for defamation. Which part was defamation, huh? Spell it out!]
[Using the law to trap people is no better than being a murderer!]
[Sure, sue us. You think you can shut us up? With this many people talking, good luck suing us all!]
Kaia wasn’t fazed. She handed all the evidence over to the police.
“Ms. Domont, we’ve received the materials. But the suspect Finn Martins is currently overseas. If he refuses to return, cross–border enforcement could be tricky.”
Lucien stepped into the precinct. “No need to worry, Finn’s back.”
Kaia blinked in surprise, then smiled brightly.
Apparently, Lucien had him dragged back himself.

Lucien winked at her, like a puppy waiting for praise.

“Ah, thank you, Mr. Graves. Do you happen to know where Finn
is now?”
Lucien spoke calmly, “My men are on their way to bring him in for voluntary surrender.”

The moment Finn landed in Sydney, he dove headfirst into the nightlife, indulging in every vice.
He’d already forgotten he was responsible for pushing his own cousin to suicide.
But one night, a group of armed men burst into his suite and dragged him onto a plane back to New York.
When he stepped out, Lucien’s men were already waiting. They shoved him straight into a car and drove him to the station.
The internet was already in a frenzy. By late afternoon, the police issued an official statement–one suspect had been taken into custody, and there was new development in Kimberly’s suicide case.
That was when Kaja posted the two suicide notes online.
She didn’t add a single word of commentary,

Meanwhile, Luna was napping when Charles‘ phone call jolted her awake. “Luna, it’s bad! Something’s happened!
“You’ve got to help me figure out a solution!”
Luna was still half–asleep, confused. “What are you even talking about? That’s a hell of a way to ask for help.”
Charles didn’t bother sugarcoating it. “Don’t play dumb. Kimberly tried to kill herself more than once and failed. And then suddenly, after one little chat with you, she comes up with this over–the–top way to die and even leaves a suicide note?
“Who else could’ve planted the idea in her head if not you? Inciting suicide is a crime. And let’s not forget, you and Kaia are practically family. If Lucien finds out, do you think he’ll just let it slide?”
Luna felt her blood pressure spike. She hadn’t expected the Martins to sink this low.
They were like sewer rats, filthy, shameless, and disgusting.
“Say whatever you want. This has nothing to do with me. I don’t know what you’re talking about, and I have nothing to explain. I’ve got nothing to hide,”
Luna wasn’t taking the bait.

Charles was recording the call, hoping to catch something useful, but came away with nothing.
Before he had time to worry about clearing his son’s name, was taken away by the disciplinary committee.
All of Charles‘ assets were frozen under charges of bribery.
Only then did the enraged online mob start to realize they’d attacked the wrong person.
Some stubborn conspiracy theorists still tried to come after Kaia, but they all got hit with another round of legal notices.

“Kaia, I’m heading to the courthouse tomorrow. Let’s start by suing these three groups of users first.”
Kaia smiled. “Thank you, Ms. Dillon. Want to have dinner tonight?”
Gwen declined. She had other plans.
That evening, Lucien brought Kaia back to the Graves Manor for dinner,
When Alyssa heard her best friend was coming, she immediately invited herself along.

Joanne, who had been throwing shade just days earlier, now
kept completely quiet after realizing she’d misjudged the whole situation.
Alyssa couldn’t help but jab at her. “Aunt Joanne, you’re awfully quiet tonight.
“You’re always the one glued to celebrity gossip and internet drama. You haven’t heard what happened to the Martins?”
Joanne gave an awkward smile. “Oh, really? I haven’t been on my phone much lately.”
“Is that so?” Alyssa drawled, dripping with sarcasm. “No biggie. I’ll fill you in. Kimberly’s death had absolutely nothing to do with Kaia. It was all thanks to the Martins and the sick things they did. Some people online just believe anything they see, no critical thinking whatsoever.
“Aunt Joanne, aren’t they the shallow ones? Wouldn’t you say?”
Kaia struggled not to laugh.
Joanne’s face turned a ghastly shade of green and white.
She finally put down her utensils. “Allen, I’m done. Enjoy the rest of your meal.”
Zane’s face didn’t look much better. He followed her upstairs.

Allen gave Kaia an apologetic smile. “Kaia, don’t take it to heart. Joanne had been stuck at home too long. Her perspective’s a bit… limited.”
Lucien, however, wasn’t feeling quite so generous. “Dad, I’m not in the mood for that kind of talk. If it happens again, don’t expect me to be polite.”
Luna kept her head down, quietly eating, terrified the fire would turn on her next.
After dinner, Kaia turned to her, her eyes glinting cold. “You’ve been pretty quiet lately. Kimberly was close to you. You’re not even a little surprised by all this?”
Luna did her best to stay calm. “Of course, I was shocked. But the dead can’t come back. I just hope she finds peace.”
Kaia sneered. “Let’s hope so.
“But just so you know, Kimberly’s last phone call before she died was to you. What did you two talk about?”
Luna’s heart skipped a beat.
