'If it weren't for Claudia clinging to him, how could they have been involved in this kidnapping case? Dad was taken away by those kidnappers just to save her. All of this was her fault!' thought Thalia. "I didn't say anything wrong! If it weren't for Claudia having an ulterior motive for you, why would my dad be lying here right now? Why didn't you save him?"

Lucas remained silent; he did not know where to begin explaining. Nothing was going on between him and Claudia.

"The ambulance is on its way. We've already administered emergency measures to your father. I'm sorry." Jimmy turned away, unable to offer better emergency treatment for Henry lying on the ground. That was their mistake.

Thalia did not want to argue with them anymore. She just knelt beside her father, crying out in distress.

She was filled with resentment. 'Dad, why didn't you listen to me when I advised you? It's been like this since I was little. You were even willing to sacrifice your life for Claudia. Am I not your daughter too? Is it because Claudia looks more like Mom?'

Thalia, both sorrowful and regretful, wondered why it was not Claudia lying on the ground but her father instead. She hoped it would be him, not Claudia, if she had to leave behind a loved one in this world. She felt that Claudia, the damned woman, did not deserve to live.

Claudia continued to cry. She became unable to speak as if she had lost the ability to react to the outside world.

The ambulance arrived quickly, and in just over ten minutes, Henry was on his way to the hospital. Only one family member could accompany him in the ambulance, and Claudia wanted to go up. However, when she caught sight of Thalia's eyes, she recoiled. 'This is all my fault. I have no right to accompany Dad.'

Lucas' expression also turned grim when she saw Claudia's state. He never expected her family situation to be like that. Although they were sisters, Thalia and Claudia had quite a few differences in appearance, and their relationship was not exactly close.

Thalia leaned in close to Claudia and whispered, "If you had any self-awareness, you wouldn't come near Dad again! It's because of you that such a big accident happened in our family. Without you, Dad and I could have been living happily. You're on your own now

She did not even care how shocked her sister was and climbed into the ambulance. She even flashed a smile at the officer who helped her up. Her tears had not dried yet, but she showed such courtesy, immediately earning the sympathy of those officers.

'Perhaps the girl was so angry at her sister earlier because she cared too much about her father. That's understandable.'

Most people present thought this way, but only Claudia knew in her heart that her own sister's malice toward her was glaring and unapologetic. She realized that she to

such an extent. On the other hand, she could not help but agree with Thalia's words.

'If it weren't for me...' That sentence circled in her mind like a curse, and she could not shake it off.
