After I Became Pretty Chapter 09
Seren couldn’t let it go.
She took to the forum, posting her own speculations.
“Three months and that much weight loss? Really?”
“I’m guessing she either had gastric surgery or used illegal drugs.”
“There’s no way she did it through exercise alone.”
“Elara risked her health to snag a rich guy.”
“That’s a terrible example to set—what if everyone starts doing this?”
The discussion exploded.
“Can you prove she used anything? She looks great.”
“Clearly she did it the healthy way.”
“If your base isn’t good, losing weight won’t make you pretty.”
“Elara was always a beauty—she was probably just fat for fun.”
“Seren’s just jealous her spotlight got stolen.”
Some defended Seren:
“Now everyone knows you can get a rich guy just by getting skinny.”
“She’s teaching people how to be gold diggers.”
“If anyone else goes for surgery or gets scammed by shady diet pills, Elara should be held responsible.”

I couldn’t help but laugh.
Dorian leaned in.
“What’s so funny?”
When he saw what Seren was doing, he was furious.
“Does she ever stop?”
“I haven’t even confronted her about how she treated you before.”
“And now she’s still attacking you. I’m going to make her regret it.”
He called his lawyer on the spot, instructing him to gather evidence for a lawsuit:
defamation, privacy infringement, the works.
Seeing him step up like that, I didn’t stop him.
Inside, I was quietly relieved—I’d fought for myself, and I’d kept the man who was always meant to be mine.
Dorian finished gathering the evidence.
I logged onto the forum and posted under my real name—
along with a vlog I’d filmed throughout my transformation.
“At 200 pounds, my doctor sat me down.”
“My blood sugar was through the roof. Cholesterol was dangerously high.”
“And my knees? Already taking damage.”
—
“I didn’t just lose weight to look good for my partner. I did it for my health.”
“This isn’t easy. Without real willpower, it’s impossible.”
“But I’m posting this video to mark my journey—”
“and to encourage anyone out there who’s struggling.”
“If you believe in yourself and put in the work, you can reshape yourself too.”
I even listed the workouts I’d done and the meals my trainer had recommended.
“I learned a lot over these three months.”
“If anyone wants to get healthy in a safe way, feel free to reach out.”
“I’ll offer free guidance wherever I can.”
The post went viral.
And just like that—I became the most talked-about person on campus.
