Zoey was struck down with a severe fever, the kind that scorched her body to a sweltering 104 degrees. In the dead of night, she
was rushed to the hospital.
Throughout her fevered dreams, she muttered Ozzy's name, one moment envisioning Ozzy turned into a hot dog, the next
witnessing Wendy tossing Ozzy off a cliff.
The doctor pumped her full of every medication under the sun, but nothing took.
Ozzy had becZoey's haunting obsession.
Cornelia, feeling a pit of worry in her stomach, called Maja.
After hearing the full story, Maja's head throbbed with fury.
Hanging up, she dialed the property management without hesitation.
She had negotiated the contract with them and had no trouble remotely accessing the surveillance footage.
Maja also had Beck look into Wendy's international rap sheet and sure enough, Wendy's mean streak abroad was as clear as day.
She'd led a bullying crusade against a classmate at Windhelm Academy, driving the poor soul to drop out and, rumor had it, to a
suicide attempt. It cost the Bennitts a cool $200,000 to smooth over.
But since the incident was abroad, it barely made a ripple, at least not all the way to Windhelm.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMaja's fingers flew over her keyboard, her expression grim.
In no time, a bombshell dropped on the domestic trending charts.

The video clearly showed Wendy's face, and even her cruel words about turning a dog into a hot dog were captured.
However, to protect Zoey's reputation, her nwas omitted from the report.
When the news hit the trend list, Maja logged onto her domestic Twitter and retweeted without a second thought.
Her account wielded significant clout in the entertainment industry; ever since her company pivoted to showbiz, they had launched
numerous A-list stars. Plus, the buzz from her fling with lan only boosted her following, which had surpassed the ten million mark.
Now, with her leading the charge in sharing the news, it cemented the truth of Wendy's outrageous act.
Maja didn't stop at just one tweet. She also posted a video of Wendy bullying the Windhelm exchange student.
In that footage, Wendy's arrogance was unmistakable.
She slapped the student across the face repeatedly, sneering, "When I'm around, do yourself a favor and vanish. Don't make me
remind you. Just because we share a school doesn't mean we're in the sleague. The lifetearnings of your parents back
hprobably can't touch my allowance."
The student, her face hidden, sobbed and pleaded for mercy.
But Wendy's hand rose again and again.
With this video, paired with the pet-snatching footage, Wendy was catapulted to the center of a scandal.
Maja added fuel to the fire, tweeting, [Quite the sense of entitlement the Bennitt family has.]
That was a heavy blow, dragging the entire Bennitt clan into the mire.
Public outrage exploded. Netizens turned Wendy's video clips into a slew of memes - menacing, disdainful, disgusted.
An overnight intesensation, Wendy found herself the target of over a million vitriolic comments.
Still seething, Maja instructed Cornelia to unlock Zoey's phone and screenshot the braised meat chat history Wendy had sent,
blasting another tweet.
[Stealing pets and then taunting with a braised meat video? Dog lovers out there get the sentiment, right? Is the law penned
exclusively for the Bennitts?]
This chat screenshot sent the online furor skyrocketing.
Even the other Bennitts were dragged through the mud, except Tyler, who had long declared his estrangement from the family on
Twitter, not having returned hin years.
Netizens spared him, flooding his Twitter with messages urging him to break free from such a toxic family.
Tyler, catching up on the online , knew Maja had made her move.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs expected, once Maja struck, Wendy's downfall was sealed.
Although he found Wendy's actions reprehensible - from causing an accident to the outright insult and provocation - he had
warned the Bennitts. They didn't listen, so who could they blame?
The Bennitts found themselves in the eye of a public relations hurricane, the scandal erupting faster than they could comprehend.
Just yesterday, they were negotiating a marriage alliance with the Haskins, and now, the Bennitts' reputation had nosedived.
Wendy, reading the online hate, felt she couldn't take it anymore. She spent her days crying in her room, smashing things in
frustration, but to no avail. The condemning comments grew more intense by the day, and even her social circle began to shun
her.
Bullying was bad enough, but snatching someone's pet away was a new low, both deplorable and vile.
