Chapter 3 - The Viral Karma
By the time Arthur woke up the next morning, the internet had completely exploded.
One of his foolish cousins, a teenager desperate for social media fame, had recorded the entire incident on the terrace.
The cousin had posted the video online, attempting to frame Arthur as an unstable, violent son attacking his poor, elderly parents.
But the cousin had forgotten to edit the audio properly.
The crystal-clear recording captured Margaret’s cruel, undeniable words: "The offspring of trash are only meant for servant work."
It also perfectly captured Arthur revealing the massive receipt and exposing Richard's total bankruptcy.
Instead of turning Arthur into a villain, the internet crowned him a hero overnight.
Millions of people shared the video, praising the father who fiercely protected his children from toxic grandparents.
The comments section was completely ruthless toward Richard and Margaret.
"Imagine treating your own grandchildren like slaves just because you hate their mother," one top comment read.
"That man didn't kick his dad hard enough," another user wrote, gathering thousands of likes.
Arthur sat at his kitchen island, sipping his black coffee while scrolling through the massive media fallout.
He wasn't surprised by his parents' cruelty, because they had treated his late wife, Sarah, with the exact same disdain.
They hated Sarah because she came from a working-class family, and they had officially disowned Arthur when he married her.
Arthur had built his massive real estate empire entirely from scratch, using nothing but his own brilliance and Sarah's unwavering support.
When Sarah passed away, Arthur’s parents suddenly tried to slither back into his life, completely unaware of how incredibly wealthy he had become.
