These brainless fans did not know the truth at all.

However, Valeria could not explain it clearly either. Valeria could not even produce evidence to prove her innocence.

and threw it at Valeria. Valeria was surrounded and could not find her way out.

Suddenly, someone picked up a

Valeria cried out in pain as she was hit by the rock.

"Enough! You don't know anything and you're here framing someone!" Valeria could not take it anymore. Valeria wanted to defend herself, but at this moment, she realized how weak her words were. The group of fans were all criticizing her.

"The evidence is conclusive, and you still dare to say it's a frame job! Shameless woman! I don't know how someone like you managed to sneak your way to become a lawyer!"

"In the surveillance video, you were the only one who entered Cheryl's house. If it wasn't you, who else could it be? Would Cheryl be so crazy as to disfigure her own face?"

"That's right. You're really vicious. Does Hackett James know that you're so ruthless? Isn't he afraid that you'll poison him to death?"

Valería really couldn't take it anymore.

Valeria was not a public figure. Faced with the verbal attacks of these brainless fans and the fact that they were all holding their phones and taking photos of her, her mind was a mess. Now, Valeria couldn't leave either. Valeria was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. She could only let these fans curse and throw things at her.

Even when Valeria had been bullied and humiliated by Hackett four years ago, she had never felt so aggrieved.

At this moment, a path emerged in the middle of the crowd and Valeria heard Tyler's angry roar.

"Get out of the way! If you don't leave now, I'll call the police. Your current actions are already considered a crime!

"This was... Tyler's voice?" Valeria thought.

Valeria was in a daze as she watched Tyler push the fans to the side. Then, Hackett walked out from behind Tyler. Hackett's long legs walked up to Valeria in a few steps, and his tall figure completely enveloped her.

Hackett was wearing a black shirt with two buttons slightly unbuttoned. His sleeves were casually rolled up, and he was wearing a silver wristwatch. Hackett's entire body exuded a noble aura, making people involuntarily respect him. Hackett walked up to Valeria, grabbed her hand, and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."

Valeria subconsciously retracted her hand because her hand was dirty with the remnants of eggs that had been thrown at her earlier.

Even Valeria was a little disgusted with her current sorry state.

Hackett frowned slightly and glanced at Valeria's hand. Hackett then held her hand tightly again and pulled Valeria away.

When the fans saw that it was Hackett, they became even crazier They completely put themselves in Cheryl's shoes and shouted bitterly.

"Mr. James! Why did you abandon the pure and kind Cheryl and like such a bitch! What kind of taste do you have?"

"Hackett James, you've been blinded by this bitch! She disfigured Cheryl's face! Do you still want to protect her? How has she bewitched you?"

""You'll be killed by this woman sooner or later!"

"What did Cheryl ever do to you? No matter what, she was once your girlfriend. Do you have to be so heartless? Why are you still protecting this bitch at a time like this?"

"They're an adulterous couple. They're a perfect match! No matter how rich you are, you're not worthy of our kind Cheryl! You may be rich, but you're brainless! Serves you right for being deceived by a bitch!"

The insults became more and more unpleasant. Even Valeria could not stand it anymore. However, Hackett acted as if he could not hear anything and quickly pulled Valeria away from this area.

Hackett left Tyler and the rest to handle everything else.

Hackett pushed Valeria into the back seat of his car and said coldly to the driver in front, "We're going home."

"Yes!" The driver immediately started the car and slowly drove away from the hospital.

Hackett took a towel and handed it to Valeria. "Wipe it off with this first. You can take a shower when we return."

Now, Valeria was mentally and physically exhausted, and she didn't want to say anything. Valeria just silently wiped off the remnants of rotten eggs from her body with the towel. There was even some on her hair. Valeria didn't dare to imagine how bad she looked at this moment. She probably looked like someone who collected scraps for a living.

Then, Valeria saw Hackett make a call and give an order in a nasty tone, "Delete all those things on the Internet! Also, sue those websites that are spreading these unfounded rumors! Don't tell me all these fucking nonsense! I don't want to hear a word. I want to see the results!"

With that, Hackett hung up.

Everyone knew that Hackett had a bad temper, but...

Valeria was about to say something when Hackett called Cheryl again. His voice was emotionless. "Cheryl, stop this nonsense."

On the other end of the phone, Cheryl shouted hysterically, "What do you mean nonsense! Do I deserve to have my face disfigured like this?! I'll make Valeria Sharp pay! I won't stop! She caused me to become like this! Hackett, you can't be so biased! My brother will be sad if he finds out about this. Besides, you promised my brother to take good care of me. Is this how you take care of me?"

Because it was too quiet in the car, Valeria could hear Cheryl's voice clearly over the phone.

Valeria looked up at Hackett's tense profile. Hackett was silent for a few seconds before he hung up.

Valeria felt that Hackett was in a very conflicted position. On one hand, Hackett felt guilty toward Cheryl, and on the other hand, he wanted to protect Valeria.

Valeria felt tired on Hackett's behalf as well, wondering why he had to go to such lengths.

"Don't you feel tired?" Valeria suddenly asked.

Hackett looked at Valeria. "This is my business. Besides, I don't feel tired."

Honestly, Hackett did not feel tired at all. However, it would be even better if Valeria could accept his pursuit. At the very least, whatever he did would not be in vain. Right now, Hackett was the one making all the moves, while Valeria completely

ignored him.

The car slowly entered the James Manor.

The door was opened by the butler. Valeria got out of the car, and Hackett followed her.

"Go take a shower and change your clothes. Don't go to the law office for the next few days. Stay at home. Leave this to me."

Hackett said from behind Valeria.

"There's no need. I think I can find evidence to prove my innocence. I didn't do this. I won't take the blame for it," Valeria said confidently.

Hackett was silent for two seconds before saying, "I understand if you don't want to admit it. Everyone has times when they can't control their emotions, but... Valeria, no one will believe that Cheryl disfigured herself with a knife." Indeed, no one would believe such a ridiculous fact. However, only Valeria knew the truth. Cheryl had disfigured herself.

"You don't believe it either. You think I did it too."

Hackett didn't respond.

Hackett was conflicted. It was not that Hackett did not want to believe Valeria, but Cheryl was a female celebrity who relied on her looks to make a living. Would Cheryl ruin her future like that
