Elsie threw herself into Owen’s arms, sobbing uncontrollably. “Yunice didn’t give in? How could she be so cruel, so selfish? You’re her brother!”

Owen closed his eyes heavily, and two silent tears slid down his face. His voice was hoarse. “It’s me who has failed her. Perhaps this is heaven’s punishment for my sins.”

Elsie buried herself in his arms, weeping bitterly, while shooting Yunice a venomous glare, as though Yunice was the root of all evil and the one tearing their family apart.

Lily looked at her children, one crying bitterly in the other’s arms. She was trembling with rage, her hands curling into spasms of anger.

This was something Yunice could resolve with just a single nod. Why did she insist on breaking this family apart?

In Lily’s eyes, all of this was Yunice’s fault.

Hatred filled her to the point her teeth almost shattered from clenching too hard. She stormed into Yunice’s room like a madwoman, pouncing on her and reaching for her neck.

“Is marrying Wyatt so unbearable for you?! Owen only go sit back and watch him go to prison?”

Lily was beside herself with rage, so much so that she knocked Yunice over in one blow.

The two of them tumbled onto Yunice’s bed.

Lily’s hands locked around Yunice’s neck, her voice shaking with resentment as tears fell. “Ever since we brought you back, this house has known no peace. If I had known things would turn out like this, I would rather have left you to rot in that asylum forever!”

Fueled by fury, Lily used all her strength.

Lily’s curses poured on. “You stabbed Elsie, and your to see you suffer, so he risked everything to forge a medical report to send you to the asylum for protection. And how do you

Pay him? By sending him to prison yourself? Even a snake that bites its savior isn’t as vicious as you!”

Yunice clawed at Lily’s wrists, but her grip was iron–tight, only tightening further.

A choking sound rasped from Yunice’s throat. Her head pounded painfully, and Lily’s accusations blurred, muffled like a voice coming through a thick fog,

As her consciousness began to fade, Yunice shifted her gaze toward the living room. Her bloodshot eyes were full of a desperate plea for help, but all she saw were indifferent faces.

Owen stood tall, coldly watching, as though believing she deserved this punishment.

Elsie’s eyes were filled with hatred, as if Yunice’s suffering at this moment finally soothed the humiliation of not marrying into the Powell family.

Even Luke, calm and detached, pretended to see nothing. His task was simple. Make Yunice agree to marry Wyatt. And what Lily was doing now suited him just fine.

As a child, Paul had always been trouble. He was always provoking enemies, always getting into fights. Back then, driven by youthful loyalty, when Paul was beaten or bullied, Yunice had stood in front of him, ready to take the blows herself.
