Chapter 11:
The news of Derek’s family reunion was all over the internet. Keywords such as “wealthy heir,” “impoverished village,” “human
trafficking,” and “biological parents finding their son” combined to make the story incredibly sensational. Major media outlets
were broadcasting it far and wide, and it quickly climbed to the top of the trending topics list
So far, reports had only described Derek’s parents as wealthy and successful, without disclosing their identities or showing their
faces. Instead, the focus was on showcasing Derek’s miserable past, which had drawn significant sympathy and tears from
numerous people online. Speculation circulated about which wealthy family Derek’s parents were from and what his future would
look like after the reunion. The media kept the public in suspense, generating considerable attention and discussion
Derek quickly became a sensation on the internet. Marissa could see that there was a deliberate effort shaping this narrative. A
professional PR team was carefully orchestrating stories before, during, and after the reunion. If her guess was correct, Derek’s
parents would soon go public and start appearing in various interviews, strategically increasing their fame. Next, they would likely

was being exploited in their marketing ploy! To enhance Derek’s tragic image, the PR team fabricated numerous bizarre stories,
including a painful love story. They portrayed her as someone who had pursued Derek for his intelligence and looks, leading to
their engagement. Then, they claimed she grew disdainful of his poverty, was unfaithful during their engagement, and eventually
left him. According to the story, she publicly humiliated and assaulted Derek, damaging his reputation and driving him to a

Derek’s fiancée. It was a distasteful spectacle

flooded with hateful comments, and some even contacted her university, demanding her expulsion. It was a complete
humiliation!
Upon grasping the full extent of the situation, Marissa was seething. She had been ignored by her parents, often beaten and
starved, and even cast out of their home when she was little. Derek’s grandmother had taken pity on her, occasionally offering
her some bread. Grateful, she had become close to the Tucker family and naively promised to marry Derek, swayed by his
grandmother at the age of six. She had always treated Derek kindly. As a young girl, she had defended and shielded him. As she
grew older, she financially supported his education and provided him with clothing and food. She had even secretly planned to
help him start his business and remained true to her promise of marriage. Now that he was an affluent heir, he tarnished her
reputation to enhance his own tragic narrative! Even though Denise was currently taking the fall, Marissa knew the focus would
