Her wounds were filled with gravel and dirt, making her a pitiful sight.
The impact on her head was so severe that blood poured from her nose uncontrollably. Medical staff worked for a long time to keep her from passing out.
Chloe struggled to lift her eyelids, staring at me for a long time before finally uttering the words that were three years too late: "I'm sorry!"
Exhausted both physically and mentally, Chloe no longer had the energy to lie or resist.
Once she told the truth, the lightest sentence she could expect was life imprisonment. For someone already half-paralyzed, that was practically a death sentence.
Her son's life was still in my hands.
If she angered me, her son could die at any moment.
To avoid provoking me, Chloe chose to confess everything in front of countless viewers and media.
She didn't dare hide a single detail.
Chloe explained that initially, she had indeed been cornered in the alley and assaulted.
But as she struggled, the men offered her a tempting deal—$100,000 per person.
With eight men, that was $800,000!
Chloe barely hesitated before agreeing.
After all, working at a karaoke bar for ten years wouldn't make that much money!
At that critical moment, my dad heard her cries for help and rushed to save her.
The eight men retrieved baseball bats from their car and beat my dad mercilessly!
While they were focused on beating my dad, they left Chloe alone.
She had a chance to call the police.
But after some hesitation, Chloe decided against it and simply waited quietly.
After the assault, the men lost interest in continuing their ‘game' with Chloe.
They paid her $500,000 for the first five men, wrote her a check, and left.
If Chloe had called an ambulance right then, my dad might not have been paralyzed so severely.
But Chloe resented my dad for interfering and costing her $300,000, so she pretended not to see him and heartlessly left the alley.
My dad missed the golden window for treatment, leaving him paralyzed from the waist down with severe lifelong complications.
After my dad was discharged from the hospital, our family began seeking justice.
Since there were no cameras in the alley, we went to great lengths to identify the eight perpetrators.
If Chloe had had any conscience and agreed to testify, our family would have received compensation, and the criminals would have been brought to justice.
But to please the eight wealthy men, Chloe chose to recant her testimony in court, claiming they were all friends and she knew nothing about my dad's beating.
Chloe's ‘efforts' were handsomely rewarded.
With the support of the eight men, she started a media company and became a famous influencer.
Up to this point, Chloe's confession aligned with my suspicions.
But there was one thing I hadn't known.
After we appealed, the eight men, to prevent our family from causing further trouble, gave Chloe $1,000,000 in compensation to pass on to us.
When our entire family knelt outside Chloe's door, begging her to testify, she chose to keep the money for herself…
Chloe's confession left everyone present stunned.
I doubt anyone could have imagined how despicable Chloe truly was!
