So that everybody would hate him

Which is correct:


1) Unlike you, I didn't invent lies about Pete and speak behind his back so that everybody would hate him. I tried to help him get along with others.


2) Unlike you, I didn't invent lies about Pete and speak behind his back to make everybody hate him. I tried to help him get along with others.


Meaning: You invented lies about Pete and spoke behind his back so that everybody would hate him. I did not do that. I tired to help him get along with others.


Gratefully,

Navi.
