Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

"Fool!" Maisie scoffed, "What's half a million gonna do these days? Can't even buy you a luxury car. Is that all the ambition you got?"

"But if we ask for too much, they won't pay a dime! Better to have half a million easy peasy..." Farley retorted.

"Boy, you seriously lack vision! Look at that skyscraper, or the mansion Beverley lives in. And don't get me started on Murray Sherwood's watch. Each worth more than half a million, easy!"

"So what if they're loaded? Why can't we ask for more? Even if we don't hit fifty million, we could at least snag five million, right?"

Farley was tempted. The difference between half a million and five million was no small change.

"But they're not even giving us the time of day. Not even five bucks, let alone fifty million..." Farley felt deflated.

Maisie, however, was confident. "You know what rich folks value the most?"

"What?"

"Pride! The richer they are, the more they care about their image. Anyway, your sister's the one who got hurt here, and it's all Murray's fault. We're totally in the right on this one. Remember when we cornered Beverley at the hotel? Didn't you record a video? Get someone to edit it, and post it online. Online folks can't get enough of that high-society drama! Once this story goes viral, there's no way they'll just sit back and ignore it!"

Farley quickly called his crew.

"Mom, you're brilliant! Coming up with ideas like this! Hey, Slim, I got a job for you..."

At three in the afternoon, Farley posted a video on his Tik Tok account.

The video, with the faces blurred, showed a middle-aged woman confronting a socialite, accusing her son of impregnating her daughter and then abandoning her! Around them, a group of well-to-do ladies watched the drama unfold with great interest.

The person recording positioned himself as the victim's brother, defending his sister's honor.

The caption read: #Spectacle! Top socialite of Lumina City gets a smackdown, the shocking truth...#

Socialite, smackdown, truth.

Farley bit the bullet and spent two hundred bucks to boost the post.

Naturally, the reaction was explosive.

Soon, the comment section came alive-

"Turns out high-society ladies also pull hair, heh!"

"More of this, please. Love it!"

"One socialite getting smacked brings out a whole audience of them. Pure gold!"

"Which socialite is this? Is her hair okay? Did she go bald?"

"The Sherwoods"

As the comment section heated up and the likes and shares soared, Farley hummed in triumph.

But his joy was short-lived. A violation notice soon popped up, and his video was quickly taken down. Farley was stunned.

Grabbing his phone, he kept refreshing: "Where's my video? Where?!"
