Chapter 11 - Sarah Faces Public Shaming And Rapid Social Ruin

Isolated inside her temporary downtown hotel suite, Sarah stared at her television screen as news anchors discussed her downfall.
Her phone buzzed incessantly with text messages from former friends canceling dinner reservations and distancing themselves.
Even her own father called from his estate in Florida to express deep disappointment over her reckless, cruel behavior.
“You humiliated our family name with your vicious temper, Sarah. Don't expect any financial bailouts from my accounts,” her father warned.
She threw her smartphone against the hotel room wall, shattering the glass screen into a thousand sparkling fragments.
Her high-priced attorney, Victor Thorne, called her landline moments later with even more devastating legal news.
“Sarah, the corporate firm’s public relations team released the security footage to validate Mark’s custody filings,” Victor stated.
“They released my private home video to the public? Sue them for breach of privacy!” Sarah shrieked hysterically.
“We can't sue anyone because the judge unsealed the evidentiary records for public safety interest,” Victor replied tiredly.
“You’re on your own if you expect to win alimony or asset splits; public opinion has completely poisoned the jury pool,” he added.
