He Scorned My Love Now He Watches My Rise Chapter 22
Bianca did not apologize as required.
That night, she reopened her public account and posted an edited video.
It showed only the footage of me projecting the group chat and bank records.
She deleted the part where Colton testified, where the elders questioned her, and where she admitted the screenshots were real.
[Three years later, she came back with a title and dragged a private breakup into a professional meeting.]
[Some people never truly reject status. They just couldn’t get it before.]
The moment comments started appearing, she deleted every one that questioned her.
My director forwarded me the video.
“Do you want to respond?”
“Not on her post.”
I submitted the original link to the records Colton had posted in the pack’s public channel three years ago, along with the review office’s file numbers for the archived evidence, directly to the public channel administrator.
I didn’t add a single word.
Half an hour later, a notice appeared under Bianca’s video.
[This content concerns matters already reviewed and concluded. The poster previously confirmed on-site that the group chat records, airport video, and transfer records are authentic. Full materials are available in the public archive.]
Bianca deleted the video almost immediately.
But she forgot she had done the same thing three years ago.
She could delete comments asking about her apology, but the group chat records had never disappeared.
This time, the public archive wouldn’t disappear just because she hit delete.
The next day, she showed up at the transport-line cooperation meeting.
“The review only proves those chat records are real.”
Bianca blocked the entrance to the meeting hall.
“It doesn’t prove she’s fit to work with the Nightfall pack.”
I walked around her and took my seat.
Two proposals lay on the table in front of me.
The first would route through the Nightfall pack, shortening transport time in the Gray Harbor section.
The second would continue using the two lines I had built in Red Sand territory, bypassing the Nightfall pack entirely. It would cost slightly more but already held long-term operating approval.
I had never staked a project’s survival on any Alpha.
Just as I had never staked my identity three years ago on Colton’s claim.
An elder asked me, “If the cooperation is not approved, what is your plan?”
“We’ll activate the original route.”
“You’re not worried about the loss?”
“The project will take a loss, but it won’t stop.”
I flipped open the pricing page.
“The Nightfall pack would also lose the long-term revenue this line brings. So what we’re discussing today is a mutual partnership, not a charity case.”
Colton sat in the gallery and said nothing.
Bianca let out a laugh.
“Sounds nice. But if you really don’t care, why insist on taking the Gray Harbor route?”
“Because it’s my job.”
I looked at her.
“Not everyone makes their decisions with Colton at the center of their universe.”
The smile froze on her face. a
