Up until this moment, I was still bewildered, not understanding why they were targeting me in their fight against mistresses.
I shouted to the group urgently, "Wait a minute! You've got the wrong person. I'm not a mistress!"
As soon as I finished speaking, Serena slapped me across the face with a snarl.
"Bitch! We're here to hit you! You've become a CEO yet still seduce my boyfriend. Shameless!"

Before I could react, Blanche also came at me, beating me up.
"You're so wealthy and yet you're someone's mistress! You're just asking for it!"
The onlookers outside also squeezed in to see the drama.
"It's eye-opening! This woman is so beautiful and wealthy, yet she's a mistress!"
The crowd surrounded me, talking and pointing, berating me mercilessly.
I held my reddened face from the beating, glaring at Serena.
"Serena, have you lost your mind? When did I become someone's mistress? Please clarify, who is your boyfriend?"
Serena snorted coldly, pointing at my face and shouting, "You know in your heart whose mistress you are. Don't play innocent with me!"
With that, she threw her phone onto the table.
"You want evidence before you admit it? Then see for yourself!"
I frowned and looked over to see a photo of Leon and me dining together on Valentine's Day.
In the photo, we were in a loving embrace, with the caption: [Happy Valentine's Day, Honey!]
I actually never post photos online. It was Leon who insisted on showing our love that day, and that's why I posted it.
"This is a photo of me celebrating Valentine's Day with my husband. What's the problem? What does it have to do with you confronting a mistress?"
My expression of innocence only served to infuriate Serena further.
"You're still pretending to be clueless. Fine! Then let me show you something else!"
She flipped through her phone and pulled up a photo of her with Leon.
"Do you understand now? Leon is my boyfriend! You spent Valentine's Day with my boyfriend and posted the photos online to show off, calling my boyfriend 'honey.' Do you still not admit that you're the mistress?!"
A whirlwind of emotions churned within me for a moment, and I finally understood what was going on.
So Leon had been having an affair with this woman behind my back. She was Leon's mistress, yet she considered herself his girlfriend!
I never expected that Leon, who had always been submissive in front of me, would have been secretly involved with Serena.
