Chapter 14 The Counterattack " I see . " Finished Rosalie nodded knowingly , lowered her head , and searched through the original Rosalie's phone until she found what she wanted . " They may be telling the truth , but I don't like suffering losses , nor do I plan on handing others an easy victory . So ... send this video and these photos to a gossip account and let them leak it . " When Wendy saw the clips and photos Rosalie had sent , she was stunned . " Where did you get these ? " " Accidentally caught them on camera . " " Holy crap , that's brilliant ! " Rosalie sighed . " You don't understand . " " Right , right , I don't understand . I'll go find someone to spread it now ! " Wendy's face was lit with excitement . " Go ahead , " Rosalie sighed again . It looked like she was destined to play the role of the vicious supporting actress . Only .... This time Chris might really divorce me . Who will you two choose to stay with ? " she asked the boys , her voice heavy . At her words , Holden frowned . " Besides that , don't you have something else you should be telling us ? " You're right , I do . " Rosalie paused , then carefully gathered her thoughts . " I want to apologize for everything I did in the past that hurt you ." The boys ' eyes widened in shock . Rosalie continued , " I shouldn't have taken out my anger at the Leigh family on you and Chris . I shouldn't have hurt myself and you in the process . I don't want to make excuses , but I want you to know this - I've never regretted having you . You've always been the greatest gift Heaven gave me . " This all goes back to your grandfather . If he hadn't hidden your mom's pregnancy and locked her up , she never would've gotten so sick ... " Wendy's anger flared at the memory . When the original Rosalie first found out she was pregnant , she had been happy . But there was no love between her and Christopher . She didn't want to use a child to bind them together , nor did she want the child to grow up in a loveless home like she had . She didn't want them to suffer the same cruel truth - that they weren't born from love . So she had thought of ending the pregnancy . But Yelena discovered it and told Fletcher .

Her dignity stripped away , her spirit gradually collapsed . And so , she came to hate Christopher - and the baby in her belly . " She hurt you deeply , but she hurt herself even more , " Wendy added quietly . Holden and Alex's eyes widened , filled with fear and unease . Seeing this , Rosalie quickly said , " Don't listen to her nonsense . I didn't . " " You just need to know your mom did wrong , yes . But she didn't deserve death . She had pain she couldn't speak of . Of course , her poor judgment of character was her greatest sin ." Wendy knew the two boys were smart . And because they were so sharp , she didn't want them to hate Rosalie . In her eyes , Rosalie was a pitiful person . That's why , after the child - abuse video leaked , Wendy used her anonymous Facebook account to post a message . " Cvivi : The world says she's guilty . She thinks so too . She even once thought of ending it all . If she grabbed her child by the throat , maybe what she was really strangling was the child version of herself . Severe depression and postpartum depression aren't things everyone can truly understand . She may have made mistakes , but none worthy of death . " . She attached pictures : two official depression diagnoses , hospital records of multiple suicide attempts , and rows of prescription bottles .

The video showed Yelena letting a potbellied old man grope her , kiss her , and hold her as she giggled on his lap . Countless viewers cried out in shock , some even gagging in disgust . They couldn't understand how someone as pure - looking as Yelena could stomach a man like that . Tristan's fans had never liked Yelena , always thinking she wasn't good enough for him . They had only tolerated her because he seemed to care for her . But now , seeing her cheat behind his back in such a shameless way , they exploded . They stormed Rosalie's forums and Facebook posts , railing against Yelena , some even going so far as to make black - and - white death edits of her .
