The villian had trusted this person for years, so it was quite a shock when they discovered that the friend had been plotting against them for some time.

Over time, these comments turned into outright lies and rumors were spread around the city. As the villian's reputation started to suffer, it became clear that something more sinister was at play.
The friend had used their close relationship to the villian's advantage by gaining access to sensitive information and secrets that could be used against them. With this knowledge, they were able to manipulate others into doing their bidding and eventually ended up orchestrating a plan of betrayal against the villian.
When the truth was revealed, everyone around the city was appalled by how someone could do such a thing to a friend they had known and trusted for years. In an instant, the villian had gone from being feared to becoming an object of pity as people started to sympathize with what happened.
