Your Regrets Mean Nothing To Me
Chapter 34

Chapter 34 

Suddenly , Torin remembered that on this particular day , Rowena hadn’t called Rupert to come to school but had called him instead .

And what had le said to her back then ? 

Ely * Torin spoke up , his tone sharp .

“ Yesterday , you begged Dad to let you start school .

And now , on your very first day , you’re late ! ” 

Rowena , noticing that Torin had entirely missed the paint , rushed forward with a few dramatic solis .

“ Torin , don’t be mad anymore .

It’s all my fault I should’ve kept it a secret for her , she said .

Turning to Elysia , Rowena whimpered .

T’m sorry , Elysia .

I don’t know Mr.

Janes would call Torin 

David , bearing this , gave Rowena an unusual look , thinking .

Hasrit she just told me that Mr.

Drayton is too busy , which is why she asked me to call her brother instead ! 

But then again , Rowena’s just a kid .

How much scheming could she really manage ? It’s probably just a slip of the tongue , saying in a moment of panic .

Deciding to go along with her story , David sighed and said , “ Torin , your little sister was late , and when she got into a fight , I tried to step in , but she hit me .

Look here ” 

David rubbed his arm absentmindedly , wincing as if he could still feel the faint ache of the bite .

Then he gave Turin a pitying look 

Torin , after all , was the high school’s living legend , top of his class every y year , winner of cureless competitions , and already accepted into Storford University .

Yet here he was , burdened with a rebellious sibling 

Elysia , who was listening nearby , had tears welling up in her eyes .

Feeling the sting in her eyes , she lowered her head to hide her emotions quickly and kept quiet 

Also , Elysia dared not interject a worl .

After all , David was a teacher at this school , and having already crossed him once , further displeasing hum might really result in her being expelled .

Meanwhile , Torin’s icy gaze bone into her , sharp enough to freeze anyone in their tracks .

Her silence only confirmed her guilt in his eyes .

Mr.

Jones .

I’ll handle this with them Torin said evenly , 

David thought , ‘ Fine .

You’re the academic star here .

Whatever you say goes 

As soon as the door shut beland David Torin ruled Rowena’s hair gemily , silently assuring her everything would be okay 

Then , Torin asked Elysia coldly , “ What does Rowena ever do to you ! What could she possibly have done to deserve being treated like this over and over again ! 

When Elysia didn’t respond , Torin pressed on , his voice heavy with accusation “ Say something Yesterday , you had plenty to say when you tried to explain yourself .

“ What’s the matter now ? Cargo your tongue ! Or are you just trying to come up with another excuse to pin in all on Rowena ! ” 

Even though Elysia’s chest tightened with every word , she said nothing .

She thought bitterly .

What can I say ? That I haven’t bullied Rowenu ? That İ haven’t skipped school ! ” 

Yesterday’s confrontation replayed in her mind , and Elysia couldn’t stop hearing that single , devastating word Torin had used .

Ridiculous 

And now Elysia took a deep breath , trying to steady herself , but her thoughts spiraled out of control .

She thought .

If even my own brother doesn’t believe me , then who in this world possibly could ? 

“ I didn’t bully Rowena ,” Elysia said finally , her voice steady but pleading , “ I didn’t skip school , 1 swear I didnt .

Torin , you know me .

Can’t you … trust me , just this once ? ” 

When Elysia said that , her eyes were ablaze with emotion , carnest , raw , and tinged with unshed tears , But not a single tear fell .

e the same .

Torin’s brows furrowed further .

He replied , “ I don’t know you , Elysia All I know is that you’re my sister .

To me , you and Rowena are That’s it 

Beyond her shared bloodline with him , Torin truly knew nothing about Elysia .

Torin thought .

What I do know ! That she’s selfish , heartless , and cruel .

That she has left me to be taken by kidnappers And now , here she is , asking me to trust her again .

Don’t know me .

That’s it Elysia thought , ber heart shattering into a thousand pieces .

In Torin’s eyes , she was no different from a stranger , just someone tied to him by family .

If not for our blood relation , would he rather I don’t exist at all ?” Elysia wondered .

She had endured coundess hardships and clawed her way back to

them .

But now , she stood trembling like a flame on the verge of going out .

Unbeknownst to her , Torin was feeling just as broken .

Tim sorry .

.

I’m so sorry ” he muttered under his breath , his hand shaking as it covered his aching eyes .

Meanwhile , Torin’s mind raced with memories from ten years ago , memories that haunted him now .

He snapped to himself , Torin , not believing Elysia is bad enough .

But why do you have to hurt her too ? 

Torin swore and there that when he saw Elysia again , he’d apologize , no matter what.

He’d make things right .

In the meantime , the livestream’s comment section exploded .

[ Why don’t you believe her , Torin ? WHY ? ] 

No investigation , no right to speak .

Torin , are all those books you’ve read just for show ! 

Ugh , my heart .

This hurts so much .

I want to pull Rowena out of the screen and slap her ! 

[ Elysia has been so humble .

Torin , how could you say something so hurtful ? I wish I were her sister ! By the way , where does that shameless traitor Odessa runoff 10 ] 

[ Odessa ? Jun’t that the quite famous singer ? Does she also do something wrong to Elystal ) 

Just watch the replay of yesterday’s livestream to replace out .

The things this woman did are much worse than what Torin and Fenwick did .

“ Sull refusing to admit Torin asked , his cold voice snapped back to the present .

Fine , 111 take Rowena to the mine’s office .

But you ? Stay here until you’re ready to apologize to her ” 

and the door .

With that , Torin turned , scooping Rowena up from the couch and heading toward 

However , Elysia just was standing there like a feless shell , her silent protest the only way she knew to declare her innocence .

Just before he stepped out , Torin paused and glanced over his shoulder .

“ Not here , Stand outside .

Don’t get in anyone’s way , ” he said coldly .

If Elysia had any bape left , it was extinguished entirely by those words .

[ Wow .

I take back everything .

Both of them are awful .

Standing in front of the whole school and apologizing to Rowena ? Really ? 

[ Why does Rowena need the nurse every time ? Isn’t that embarrassing at some point ) 

[ It’s called pretending to be sick .

And judging by her tears , she’s probably great aric ) 

[ Alright , maybe you guys have a point but I still think Elysia betraying Torin over such a small matter is wrong .

I’m just a low – level employee arthe Drayton Group , but I’ve seen enough to know what Elysia’s really like .

) 

[ Yeah , I’ve got something to say too .

I’m one of Elysia’s classmates .

Sure , she might be innocent in this case , but she’s definitely guilty of the bad things she’s done later .

We didn’t make those up ! I 

Torin stared at the endless stream of cominents flooding the screen , his heart burning with a surge of unexplainable anger .

Why do people always try to dismiss the injustices Elysia has suffered by bringing up her past mistakes ! Even Fenwick isn’t any different , Torin thought 

“ Torin , don’t you remember ? Elysia tore up your exam admission ticket before .

She stole Rowena’s hairclip .

Oh , and there’s more .

Fenwick said , his tone utterly devoid of guilt or empathy .

Fenwick’s face was cold and indifferent li seemed eager to fast – forward to the parts where Elysis was at fault .

But this wasn’t some silly puzzle game ! Did Elysia’s future mistakes somehow erase the unfair treatment she was enduring now ? 

“ She’s your sister , Fenwick ! Your real sister ! Not some enemy you’re trying to take down ! ” Torin shouted .

Fenwick flinched at the outburst , clearly unprepared for Tonin’s anger .

It was the first time in years since he’d become an adult .

Torin had shouted at him so many times .

Being a public figure , Fenwick couldn’t help but feel a flicker of indignation .

Yet that annoyance , instead of turning inward , redirected inelf toward Fi 

‘ In just two days .

Torin defends her above all else .

Finel Fenwick thought bitterly .

If that’s how it is , then Rowena can be my only sister 

Then Ferwick glanced at the unconscious Rowena and sighed .

He couldn’t help but wonder when she would finally wake up .

Not that it mattered , it was all Elysia’s fault anyway .
