Chapter 7: The Court of Public Opinion

Attempting to control the narrative, Beatrice went on a daytime talk show, playing the victim. She wore pastel colors, cried without shedding a single tear, and claimed it was a ""terrible misunderstanding."" The host, however, was prepared. Live on national television, the host played the garage security footage that David had anonymously released to the press. The audience gasped in collective horror. Beatrice's facade crumbled live on air. She snapped at the host, revealing her true, venomous nature. The PR stunt became a total disaster, cementing her status as a national villain.
