Love in New Memories
Chapter 68 The Fall of Sophia Carter
un Pear!
Sophia grabbed her son and hurried outside. As she walked out, she caught sight of Amelia standing in the
distance.
But she had no energy left to mock Amelia for her recent disgrace. Instead, she shoved her son into the car and left in a hurry.
What she didn’t realize was how far the incident had already spread. The video of her beating the child last night had gone viral and was trending across social media,
In the video, she was visibly agitated, slapping the child repeatedly as he sat crying on the floor.
Outrageous mothers flooded the
cons
“How could anyone hit her son like that? She’s evil! She must be a stepmother!”
“Look at his face–it’s completely swollen! What’s wrong with the people around? Why didn’t anyone intervene?”
“When I was little, my dad slapped me like that, and I lost hearing in hers shouldn’t have kids.”
“This is child abuse. Someone should call the police.”

Some netizens quickly recognized Sophia and discovered she worked at Hale Corporation.
Soon, people found Hale Corporation’s official social media and demanded that the company fire Sophia for abusing a child.
Sophia sat in her office, restless and uneasy. She had seen the comments too.
These days, once your face goes viral, everything about you gets dragged into the spotlight.
Now that the scandal had reached the company,/she knew she was finished.
Even if she tried to explain–that the child had been diagnosed with a supermale syndrome, and that she’d been deceived by a man back then, that she always believed she could raise the child well–none of it mattered now.
Her face was ashen when someone from the HR department arrived.
“Ms. Carter, here’s your compensation package. We’ve received over two hundred calls today–all complaints about you. The HR team can’t keep up.”
The bigger the company, the more it values its reputation.
Holding the termination letter, Sophia felt her entire future collapse. Just then, she remembered A laugh.
It dawned on her instantly. The child had always behaved in the restaurant next door–why had he lost control last night? Someone must have provoked him.

“It was you, wasn’t it? Amelia, you bitch! You ruined me! Do you have any idea how hard I worked to get here? I won’t let you get away with this!”

Amelia walked over slowly, her tone calm.
“Sophia. I never start fights. When you sent Nate after me, you should’ve known this was coming. You say you won’t let me off? Well, good luck with that. After this scandal, what company would hire you? And if I remember correctly, you’ve got quite a few loans, don’t you?”
Sophia’s face turned even paler. To land a wealthy man, she bought a luxury car worth over half a million dollars and was still paying off a monthly loan of 20 thousand dollars. Losing her job now was a disaster.
“Amelia, I swear I’m going to kill you!”
She lunged at Amelia.
Amelia calmly raised her hand and slapped her across the face.
Sophia froze, clutching her check in disbelief.
Amelia had actually hit her?
Amelia adjusted her sleeve, looking perfectly composed.
“You still think you’re the victim here. I can’t be bothered to argue. You’re on your own now.”
“Amelia! Amelia!”
Sophia’s eyes burned red, her whole body trembling with rage.
Everyone in the department who saw the slap said nothing and lowered their heads in silent agreement.
They’d always thought Amelia was just a pretty face with connections to Nolan. But just now, her presence was overwhelming, and she’d gotten Sophia fired, destroying her career.
Amelia was terrifying.
Before, people gossiped about her in group chats. After toda whisper her name.
no one in the department would even
Amelia was more than satisfied with the shift in atmosphere. These people had never liked her anyway, and she had no interest in fitting in..
This kind of uneasy peace suited her just fine.
With Sophia gone and her manager position now vacant, ambition stirred among the remaining staff. Amelia herself had no interest in the job–after all, she’d only been with the company for two weeks. But Nolan seemed determined to make things difficult for her. The very next day, he gave her the
sition.
Promoting a newcomer with just two weeks of experience to a manager? It was a poisoned gift, sure to breed
resentment.
As soon as she arrived at the office, Amelia intended to confront Nolan, but he was conveniently absent.
The others in the department were clearly unhappy with her promotion, but no one dared to voice their discontent. After all, Amelia had connections.

Taking a deep breath, Amelia unblocked Nolan and dialed his number.
“Where are you?”
Nolan had expected her call. He’d promoted her on purpose, wanting her to feel the pressure..
Now, seeing her call him first, he couldn’t help but smile.
“Well, if it isn’t Amelia Summers. You actually took me off your block list–now that’s a surprise.”
