The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance

The scandalous video of Karl and a group of men rocketed to the top of the trending charts.

Although it was swiftly scrubbed from local networks, on international sites, the footage was broadcast in all its lurid detail, captivating audiences everywhere.

People are always drawn to the outrageous-especially when it shatters every social norm. This wasn't just Karl with another man; it was Karl with several men.

Even though people at home couldn't access the unedited video, the censored clips of Karl had already gone viral, spreading across every corner of the internet.

As for sites abroad... there wasn't even an attempt at censorship. Every explicit detail was out there for the world to see, crystal clear.

Countless curious netizens found ways around the firewalls to watch the livestream, generously posting step-by-step guides to help others do the same.

In no time at all, Karl's video was the most talked-about scandal on the planet.

Even in countries known for their liberal attitudes, people were left speechless. After all, this kind of thing is private for most-nobody airs it out for the world to

see.

Yet here was Karl, not only engaging in a wild orgy with men, but actually livestreaming the whole event.

As the livestream played, viewers around the globe couldn't stop commenting:

"Word is, Karl's the golden boy of the Burton family... Is this how the rich have fun?"

"The upper crust really is a mess!"

"Gotta say, Karl's got a great body... heh!"

"He looks strong and masculine, but turns out he likes to be the submissive one... guess you really can't judge a book by its cover."

"And the craziest part? One guy isn't enough-he needs a whole crowd..."

"Unbelievable! And I get to watch this for free?"

The internet was ablaze with excitement.

Back at the Burton family estate, chaos reigned.

Sellers Burton's face was as cold and hard as ice. He turned to his assistant and snapped, "Shut that livestream down. Now."

His assistant's voice trembled, on the verge of tears. “Mr. Burton, it's not that we don't want to-believe me, we tried-but it's impossible. Even if we cut off the stream here, it's still live everywhere else. The servers aren't under our control."

Sellers' handsome features darkened like a gathering storm. "Find a hacker. Take down their servers."

The assistant swallowed hard.

"We've tried, sir. They were prepared we're up against even better hackers. Their firewalls are practically impenetrable. Our people are working on it, but... it'll take time. By the time they break through, Karl's livestream will be long over."

For the first time, Sellers' stoic mask cracked, and real anger flickered across his face.

His voice was a low, dangerous growl. "Who? Who the hell dares to target the Burton family like this?"

Now the entire world was laughing at the Burtons.

He was the current head of the family, yet this had happened under his watch. It didn't take much to imagine how his enemies and those

relatives vying for the family inheritance would seize on this disaster, using it as ammunition to force him out.

At that moment, Sherman Burton came rushing in, breathless and pale.noveldrama

"Uncle, we've tracked Karl's location. He's in Aetheria."

it?"

"Aetheria?" Sellers frowned. "If I recall, that's the Gardner family's territory, isn't

Sherman nodded. "Yes. The thing is, we've never had much to do with the Gardners. We haven't even met the current head of the family. We have no way to reach them..."

Among the top-ranking old-money families, everyone maintained some kind of relationship-even if rivals, they kept up appearances.

No one wanted to make an enemy of a family as powerful as their own. After all, there was that infamous fallout between two major foreign families—both destroyed in their bitter struggle, wiped from existence, never to be heard from again.
