You Looked Down on Me Once, Now You Look Up. novel Chapter 30

Nina had seen more of the adult world in her twenty years than most people ever did.

When she was studying abroad, they actually had classes about anatomy and intimacy. Not the kind of thing you usually learned from textbooks. So when she got back home and heard—thanks to a well-placed bribe to the Newton family’s housekeeper—that Theo and his wife hadn’t even shared a bed in two years of marriage, Nina made up her mind. She was going to get involved.

The energy in the living room changed in a flash. Theo grabbed her chin, making her look right at him. His voice was shaky. “Do you even know what you’re doing?”

Nina looked up at him, eyes shining and sincere, just a hint of mischief in her smile. “I know exactly what I’m doing. And I want this. I want you.”

…

“Turn that off. What’s so interesting about watching something so dirty?” Patricia’s voice echoed in the villa’s quiet. She sat in her wheelchair, staring at the steamy scene playing on her tablet—a small, mocking smile tugging at her lips.

She’d almost believed that Theo and Nina’s night together was just a drunken accident, nothing more. But seeing this, she realized how wrong she’d been.

The Miller family always acted like they were so proper and high-class. But their daughter? Throwing herself at a man like she had no shame at all.

On her knees, begging for his attention—Patricia couldn’t help but scoff.

She didn’t reply, just took a deep breath and shut her eyes for a second.

“Just wait. Let them release their statement. Then we’ll leak this video and see what happens.”

Nina wasn’t the only one who could bribe a servant—Patricia could play dirty, too. An eye for an eye.

That same night, Theo, still basking in the afterglow, had Newton Enterprises’ PR team issue an official clarification.

Newton Enterprises: “Our little sister, @Nina, whom we’ve watched grow up.”

The tweet didn’t allow any replies. No one could even comment, like they were shutting everyone up before the rumors could get louder.

Patricia made sure Newton Enterprises paid for trending spots. Suddenly, every influencer and gossip account was siding with Newton, dragging anyone who’d doubted them.
