The Mocked Miss’s Hidden Crowns novel Chapter 1670

Stella didn’t know what to say. All she could do was feel sorry for the twins.

Parrish focused on the road while Charlotte and Stella sat together in the back seat. Charlotte was glued to her iPad, watching the video that had just exploded online.

In the video, Shirley pulled out her phone and opened a message. The screen filled with messages you’d never want people to see.

“Shirley would never do that,” Stella whispered, leaning closer. “Someone set her up. I just know it.”

“Don’t worry,” Charlotte said gently, giving Stella’s pale cheek a reassuring squeeze. “I’m here, remember? What’s there to be afraid of?”

Stella let out a shaky breath. The knot in her stomach finally started to loosen. Of course. When Charlotte was around, there was always a little sunlight. Everything suddenly felt a bit less scary.

Charlotte arched an eyebrow and shifted her gaze to her laptop. Her fingers flew across the keyboard as she dug into the details.

There weren’t any signs that Shirley’s phone had been hacked. The messages had definitely been sent from her own device. Which meant... someone must have gotten her phone without her noticing and sent those texts, making the whole thing look like her fault.

This wasn’t just about a scholarship. It was personal. Whoever did this wanted to ruin Shirley.

Wow. That was ice cold.

Charlotte exited the system and immediately called Jackson. “I need you to trace a few IP addresses. Get me the exact locations.”

As soon as she ended the call, her phone rang again.

“Charlotte?” Adonis sounded nervous on the other end. “There’s a story about you trending everywhere right now. Do you want help shutting it down?”

Charlotte opened another tab and took a quick look. The corner of her mouth twitched. She didn’t even look worried. “No need,” she said, voice flat and calm.
