Chapter 36
Turin watched Elysia standing under the scorching sun .
His heart clenched with pain and bitterness
Soon , his gaze shifted to Rowena , who stood nearby , smirking at Elysia’s misery .
Torin’s disappointment deepened .
Because Rowena framed Flysi and called her an illegitimate child
Years ago , to protect Rowena’s feelings .
Torin had given her the last name when she started middle school .
Everyone had agreed to publicly acknowledge her as Rupert’s daughter .
“ Who would have thought she’d repay us by taking over Elysia’s place in the family with such calculated cruelty ? ” “ Torin thought
However , as much as Torin’s anger burned , his mind kept replaying Rowena’s past deeds , Like the time she shielded him when Elysia tore his admission ticket or when she tirelessly made soup for him while he was sick .
Moreover , Torin couldn’t forget that one time when Rowena saved him from food poisoning .
These were debts of gratitude he owed her .
But gratitude didn’t absolve her .
Rowena needed to face the consequences of her actions .
And so did David .
The one who , with his biased and reckless judgment , decided on punishment without even checking the surveillance footage.
Grabbing his phone , Torin dialed a number quickly .
On the other end , the principal of Ridgewood Middle School picked up immediately , despite being in the middle of delivering a lecture .
The moment Richard heard what Torin had to say , his tone changed drastically .
“ What This is outrageous ! Torin , I promise you .
I’ll handle this and give you a satisfactory resolution
OMG ! I go to the same school as Elysia The principal just announced that David got fired ! Ahhh , Elysia is saving Ridgewood Middle School ! ]
The scene shifted to the nurse’s offer , where Llys lay unconscious .
The strands of hair hiding her face had been pinned back , and the freckles on her face had been wiped off , revealing delicate , porcelain – like features .
Elysia looked pale but breathtaking , like a fragile beauty straight out of a fairy tale
Π
Just then , a woman with long hair , wearing a nurse’s uniform , burst into the room , visibly upset .
She said , “ Oh , you’re awake ! How are you ferling ! What kind of teacher would make you kneel under the blazing sun like that it’s outrageousT
Before Elysia could answer , the nurse continued , “ This heat is no joke ! This is student abuse Tell me who did it , and Ell make sure you’re protected ! ”
Instantly , her eyes filled with tears at the nurse’s words .
Protected Elysia thought .
For so long , this was the first time someone had spoken to her with such biased wants .
Elysia’s body trembled slightly .
But she couldn’t bring herself to say it .
The person who punished her wasn’t a teacher , it was her brother , Turin
The mune noticed her discomfort and assumed Elysia wasn’t feeling well .
Then she wiped Elysia’s forehead with a damp cloth .
“Are you still feeling unwellt Should I call your family to pick you up ? ” the nurse asked gecily .
Hearing this .
Elysia shook her head instinctively .
In that split second , she could almost see it happening : Turin being called in standing right there , spinning those twisted facts as if they were the truth .
Torin would glare at her with those icy , judgmental eyes , piercing through her again and again , his disdain for her growing even deeper
A storm of emotions welled up inside Elysia , crashing over her heart with pain .
far worse than the beatstroke she’d just endured .
In reality .
Elysia didn’t care much for the opinions or stares of others .
But if this teacher , who had shown her a flicker of kindness , were to look at her with the same disgust , it would utterly break her .
Elysia felt like she couldn’t breathe and forced herself to say , Tm sorry , ma’am , for making you worry .
I’m fine , really .
”
( Why didn’t she tell the nurse ? She looks so kind and understanding .
She’d definitely help ! ]
[ I agree .
Elysia finally met someone kind , and she blew it .
So dumb .
II
Are you all crazy ? What can the nurse do about a family problem Let’s be realistic here .
]
[ No.
Elysia’s scared .
She doesn’t want Turin to hate her even more .
That’s why she didn’t say anything .
Scared of what ? She’s just fourteen ! No kid should have to endure that under the blazing sun ! ]
Meanwhile , Ferwick sat in front of the screen , his emotions churning .
On that day he had been at school too .
He wasn’t the one who punished Elysia , but Torin had been .

‘ But why doesn’t she call me instead ? Fenwick frowned .
If she’d reached out , maybe I would’ve seen her suffering and treated her better
Or does she already hate me back then ! Is it because of that misunderstanding a few days prior ! Does Elysia stop sering me as her brother over something so trivial ? Fenwick wondered .
huh ! She’d rather stay with a nurse
Thinking this , Fenwick looked at Torin , his expression twisted into a smirk .
“ Guess we’re outsiders to her now , ho she barely knows than come home to us when she’s sick .
”
Torin didn’t respond , his focus still on the screen .
He wouldn’t relax until he saw Elysia safe and well again .
But the live didn’t grant Torin that peace of mind .
Instead , the scene darkened , leaving everyone puzzled .
No one saw what happened that day , and even Torin couldn’t remember clearly
me out ! Please , let me out !
Suddenly , a panicked scream pierced the air , pulling everyone’s attention back to the screen .
“ Let me
The image shifted, revealing Elysia .
Unfortunately , she renamed to her usual attire .
The thick bangs covered her forehead , freckles scattered across her face , and her school uniform was wrinkled and disheveled
Right now , Elysia pounded on an iron door , her voice shaking as she called out , “ Why did you he to me ” Torm’s not here , is he ? ”
Elysia’s words , paired with the bruises visible on her skin , painted a grim picture of the bullying she’d endured
But who had deceived Elysia into coming here under the pretense of Torin !
Hefore anyone could m
ake sense of it , a voice rang out from beyond the door .
“ Dream on , you little bitch .
Why don’t you just go die with your mom , the mistress ? Stop ruining Rowena’s familly !”
This was followed by a cold laugh Serena continued , “ Oh , and enjoy the little surprise I prepared for you .
Have fun !”
Soon , a burlap sack was suddenly thrown through the ventilation opening in the iron door .
With a dull chud , the sack landed heavily on the ground .
From inside the sack slithered several long , twisting snakes .
Their thin , sinewy bodies swayed as they hissed , crawling closer to Elysia .
JAHHHHIPSNAKES ! Damnat I’m terrified
[ Same ! Blur the screen ! Plur it now !
As the serven became pixelated , obscuring most of the sore , Fenwick’s imitation rose .
snupped .

sshat

Han ! ses s
A comment popped up .
[ Didn’t you say you didn’t care earlier .
Mr.
Drayton ! Why so interested not
Fenwick’s forehead throbbed with frustration , veins visibly pulsing as anger surged through him .
If it weren’t for the screen separating those mocking him , he’d have dragged every last one of them out to shut them up .
Tim just curious , that’s all Yes , curious if those snakes a are venomous or not , Fenwick thought .
him
But fate didn’t grans Fenwick the chance to replace out .
The screm abruptly shifted to the view outside the iron door , and the voice they’d just beard ? Tunnistakably belonged to Serena
Standing beside Serna , Rowena looked visibly distressed .
She bit her lip nervously and said , “ Serena , don’t you think this is a bit much ? After all , she’s still my sister .
”
Serena , completely unfazed , waved her hand dismissively .
“What’s the big deal Those snakes aren’t even venomous .
A couple of bites won’t kill
“ Rowena , you’re way too soft .
Someone as lowly as Elysia doesn’t even deserve to step foot in our school , Serena continued .
Rowena dabbed at her eyes , sniffling as tears welled up .
“ Buc .
but .
”
Meanwhile , Rowena’s expression of conflict was so convincing that not only Serena but also the viewers of the live stream were momentarily fooled into believing she might actually feel remone .
See ? Rowena’s just that kind – hearted .
She barely does anything wrong and already feels bad about it .
Elysia could never be like that ! ]
[ Told you I wasn’t wrong about her Rowena , go save Elysia and shut those haters up ! ]
[ Are Rowena’s fans brain – dead ! After those things , they still can’t see she’s faking it .
Oh , wait , her fans and her brother are cut from the same cloth ]
Fenwick shouted , his voice ringing out , loud and defensive .
“ Rowena’s not faking it ! She’s always been kind ! ”

But as soon as the words left his mouth .
Serena’s voice on the screen cut through , saying , “ What’s wrong , Rowena ! Are you regretting luring her out here ! This was your idea .
The snakes ! You brought them .
Don’t you dare turi me in ?
No one could’ve predicted that Rowena wasn’t just a bystander or an instigator .
She had been actively involved in the scheme , and not just involved .
She had orchestrated in
Serena’s revelation hit like a bombshell , the livestream exploding into chaos as viewers reacted with shock and disbelief .
At the same time , Fenwick stood frozen , his head spinning “ No way .
Rowena’s terrified of snakes ! How could she have brought them here ! ”
Torin lowered his head in thought, frowning , Rowena’s fear of snakes is well – known .
And Elysis has once scared her into fainting by leaving one in her path
But when does this fear begin ! What counts as since she was little ” ? A year old ” Three ? What about thirteen ”
Suddenly.
Torin’s head shot up .
“ Fenwick ! Isn’t it around this time that Rowena’s fear of snakes started ! ” he asked .
