Your Regrets Mean Nothing To Me
Chapter 28

Chapter 28 

Early the next morning .

Twitter was abuzz with trending hashtags , “ Memory Viewer Unveiled : Revealing Elysia’s Crimes , “Ten Years Without Scandal : A Top Actor’s Secret Turns Out to Be a Puppet ” and “ Rowena : A Rising Star’s Hicklen Childhood Secrets “.

Everyone’s attention was immediately caught by these peculiar tags .

However , as soon as they clicked , their phone screens automatically switched 

to à live broadrası .

At the center of the screen stood Stellan , dressed in a classic black suit 

Under a sea of confused gazes , he began to introduce the purpose of 

of this 

is live stream , using much the same speech as 

has the previous day .

Yet today , he added a new detail .

This stream will utilize a third – person perspective , reconstructing scenes from Elysia’s memories with Al- generated environment .

“ Meanwhile , VR glasses will continue to provide a first – person experience , and today , they are officially on sale ,” 

The moment the stream started , nearly a hundred million viewers flooded in .

Across cities and neighborhoods , screens of all sizes displayed the broadcast – it was , after all , the infamous villain’s memories .

The scene opened with a spacious kitchen .

KitchenGuru : [ Wow , it’s the Drayton family’s kitchen , buh ? Even their kitchen is bigger than my whole living room ! 

MysterySeeker .

[ But why is it empty ! I thought this was Elysia’s memory .

Where is she ? ] 

DigitalDoulter [ I’m betting the Al – generated the scene hased on things she heard and saw .

I heard Elysia has incredible clairvoyance and super hearing .

She’s absolutely amazing ] 

Scandal Hound : [ Wait Someone’s coming ! Is that Elysia’s back ! No matter how fancy her clothes , it can’t hide her ugly face ] 

DairyDetective : [ Hold on ! is she pouring a packet of white peneder into the milk ? II – 

“ That’s it , Torin ! Everyone can see it now – she drugged me herself .

Fenwick said confidently .

This morning , after receiving an invitation from Stellin’s live stream .

Torin had dragged Fenwick along 

Caellan was it school – still a senior in high school – and Rupert had dismissed the whole affair as irrelevant , confident that a memory stream wouldn’t change the final outcome .

Torin hesitated , his lips twisching , before finally voicing his doubt.

“ Tenwick .

.

When have you ever seen .

Elysia wear such an expensive dress ?” 

Fenwick’s response was swift .

“ She must have stolen it from Rowenal There’s no way that dress washers , right ? Disgusting 

thief 

GossipGuine ( Wait , isn’t Elysia a Drayton ? That dress looks like one of Tivelkis cheapest ours – only a few grand .

Why would she need to steal from Honerna ? ] 

FliteEagle ( Wow , the Drayton family is stingy .

If Elysia were with us , we’d get her dresses worth at least fifty grand .

Why wear second – hand stuff ? ] 

OpulentEye : Are you nuts ? A dress worth a few grandt Stealing that is enough for a lawsuit ! Can’t believe people actually like that creep .

Elysia .

SharpMind : [ Just go watch yesterday’s scream replay .

I’m not arguing with morons , but I have a hunch that this girl isn’t Elysia .

] 

Fenwick smirked , clearly amused .

“ That milk was delivered to me personally by Elysia .

Who else could it have been ? 

“ Sure , I remember she wasn’t wearing this dress that day , but out of everyone in the family , only Elysia would want to harm me ! 

“ She probably changed because she was scared of being caught stealing a dress , so she 

He was abruptly cut off by a high – pitched , almost shrill voice from the screen .

It was the kind of voice that seemed to pierce the eardrums .

“ Daddy’s ridiculous ! He wants to have another baby with Mom , but I don’t need any more rivals in this house ! 

“ I worked hard to get this drug and once Daddy drinks it , he’ll never be able to have more kids , ” 

On the screen , a girl in an elegant princess dress stirred the milk with a pair of chopsticks , quickly dissolving the powder .

The livestream chat instantly exploded with a barrage of insults , even harsher and more numerous than yesterday’s .

The moment she turned around , the streaming comments froze .

10:50 AM 

Chapter 28 

It was Romerna , holding the milk and looking both startled and angry .

“ Elysia ! You – you’re here ! What did y 

you hear !! ” 

Fourteen – year – old Elysia then appeared on screen , wearing a plain , washed – out dress that looked like it came from a thrift store , 

Her delicate and pale face , however , inanaged to give the simple outfi 

unexpected touch of elegance .

Rowena’s teeth ground together in frustration – no matter how basic the dress .

Elysia somehow managed to look graceful .

Unfazed by Rowena’s listense glare .

Elysia responded , her expression righteous .

“ Theard everything .

You put something in that milk to make sure Dad can’t have more kids ! Fin going to … ” 

Her words trailed off , and a hint of sadness flickered in her eyes 

The memory of Rupen and Fenwick’s mistrust from the previous day weighed heavily on her , casting a shadow .

She swallowed her initial threat and softened her staner .

If you pour it out now , 11 pretend I didn’t see anything Otherwise , I’m going to Dad ” 

Rowena’s face flushed a deep red as if every ounce of anger boiled to the surface .

But in a heartbeat , the tension eased , replaced by a sly , almost imperceptible smile .

Rowena’s voice dripped with venom , her eyes glinting with challenge as she batted her lashes provocatively .

Fine .

I’ll pour it out if you let me cut your hair .

Otherwise , 1 sell Dad you tried to poison his food .

This milk will be my proof ! 

“ Let’s see , who do you think he’ll believe – me , or the same bad girl who sent me to the hospital yesterday ! ” 

Elysia frner , usmned by Rowena’s lirazen threat , ber eyes widening in disbelief .

Whol Who : [ Who even 

The even is Elysia ! I’m so confused right now .

) 

Al – Detective : [ Wait , is this Rowena ? I’m confused – why does it feel like the roles are reversed ! This Al stuff can’t be trusted ? Clearly , the pretty one is Rowena , and the one in the Tavello dress is the snake , Elysia I 

Rowena Fanatic : [ Knew it Elysia is so hung spiking her own dad’s drink just to stay his favorite .

We need to report this clip to the cops and throw in the time she pushed Rowena down the stairs for a life sentence .

I 

Watching the comments Stellan saw more and reviewers start to doubt what they were seeing .

The reactions of those who had watched yesterday’s VR stream were being overwhelmed 

Meanwhile , the Drayton brothers remained silent , utterly baffled .

Taking charge , Stellan rabed his voice .

“ Our lab’s Al hasn’t made a mistake 1 , Stellan Rookwood , guarantee this with the Rookwood family’s name .

“What you’re seeing is the truth .

If you can’t believe me , borrow ce buy a pair of VR glasses and see for yourself 

The 

eineation of the Rookwood family silenced the skeptic .

The family was renowned in the scientific community , with countless patents benefiting the country .

Their reputation was unassailable in both science and business .

LiveWitness .

I was there yesterday Rowena’s antics will blow your mind – just replace the replay: 

Stylist Savvy : Rowena’s evil ! Look what she dil to Elpar’s hair – the bunchered 

On the scree 

screen , Elysia’s once long hair had been reduced to a choppy , jagged mess , ber bangs falling awkwardly around her chin .

Rowena clearly wasn’t satisfied , trimming more with glee .

As she snipped , she taunted , “ Oh my dear sister , you’re so ugly now .

” 

Elysia remained expressionless , seemingly unfazed by the butchering of her appearance .

Years of hardship had dulled her vanity , focusing her solely on survival .

Now that she was back home , she had to be even more careful ilsis time , not just for her safety , but to avoid her family’s rejection .

Fear of being abandoned , of ending up in the filthy bar or the suffocating lab again , weighed heavily on her .

She desperately wished to turn back time , to ten years ago when everything was perfect – when , like Rowena now, cherished and accompanied by her whole family .
