Regretting The Wife He Threw Away

Here is a culturally localized adaptation for a Western novel audience, following your requirements:

The anonymous poster kept dropping bombshells-

They claimed that when Briony was born, a renowned priest predicted she was a bringer of misfortune, destined to bring tragedy to those closest to her!

*"The Kensington family sent Briony away to the countryside when she was just a year old, only bringing her back at eighteen. And what happened? Within four years, her father was dead-because of her! Thank God we've completely cut ties with Briony and her mother. Who knows how many more of us would have died if we'd let them stay!"*

The internet was stunned.

Wealthy families are notoriously superstitious, so most readers bought the story without a second thought.

Of course, besides the rubberneckers, Rosita's fans were the loudest. They openly attacked and cursed Briony, convinced she was after Stewart.

After all, Stewart-handsome, successful, from an impeccable background-was the very definition of the perfect man. According to the supposed insider from the Kensingtons, Briony was a scheming opportunist, and no way would she let someone like Stewart slip through her fingers!

It wasn't that they doubted Stewart's feelings for Rosita-they just didn't trust Briony at all.

Rosita's followers were fiercely protective. Almost overnight, posts smearing Briony started spreading like wildfire.
