Your Regrets Mean Nothing To Me
Chapter 57

Chapter 57 

As the audience furiously typed in the chat , their collective venting was interrupted by the screech of a microphone .

“ I owe Elysia an apology as well 

All eyes turned to a new screen in the broadcast – the live feed from the studio where Stellan sat 

Why are you chiming in Get the main culprits out here first ] 

at the 

At first , many assumed Stellan was apologizing for his teenage recklessness , particularly for drawing Rupert’s attention to Elysia .

But as perspective shifted to show the younger version of Stellan standing in a corridor ten years ago , the audience grew silent .

“ It was me , ” Stellan admined , his voice subdued .

“I was the one who called Rupert over back then .

I thought … ” 

He paused , eyes clouded with regret .

I thought that since Elysia was his biological daughter .

.

Before he could finish .

Torin leaped forward and landed a punch square on Stellan’s face .

The blow was powerful , sending Stelian staggering to the ground , momentarily stunned .

Stars danced in his vision as Torin’s enraged shout echoed through the studio 

“ Stellan , you’re the one who deserves to die ! ” “ Torin said .

Stellan , regaining his composure , retorted , “ And you don’t ! ” 

The two 

two began trading blows , grappling like wild animals .

Fenwick immediately rushed to assist Torin , only for other members of the crew , who harbored their own grievances , to join the fray .

Chaos crupted as decades of suppressed guilt , anger , and accusations culminated in a live , nationally broadcast brand .

Two million viewers witnessing a royal rumble live .

It was unprecedented .

Meanwhile , at the Stoneford Police Department , the chief’s office door creaked oper 

There 

was a knock on the door of the chief’s office 

“ Sir ,” a junior officer hesitated , clutching his phone , “ there’s a situation .

He hesitated , then handed over the device , displaying the broadcast of the melec in the studio .

The middle – aged chief , face stern , glanced up .

Recognition flickered in his eyes .

It was the same man who had once comforted a young Elysia at 

The station .

“ Yoy … You’re .

.

The rookie stammered , shocked to realize the connection 

The chief sighed deeply , waving the officer off .

“ Send two officers .

Have them leave in thirty minutes .

Now get out , I have other matters to attend 

Once alone , he reached into his desk drawer and retrieved his own phone , which he had previously turned off .

The screen lit up , showing the feed of a much younger Elysia huddled in a tiny room , her innocence stolen by those meant to protect her .

“ She was just a child ,” he murmured , voice breaking .

“ And I failed her .

” 

He pressed a hand to his reddened eyes , but a few tears still escaped .

If only he hadn’t been swayed by the Drayton family’s power .

If only he had stood up for her when she was unjustly accused .

If only he hadn’t sent such a good , obedient child to juvenile detention on trumped – up charges .

And if only he hadn’t … almost sent her to prison after that incident .

The chief clenched his fists .

Back then , he had chosen to believe lies over the frightened truths of a child .

It wasn’t until Stellan intervened and took Elysia away that she was spared what could have been a devastating fate .

Though she had pushed Rowena , Rowena deserved it .

The Drayton family’s darling had committed acts that , under the newly revised juvenile criminal laws , could land her in prison for years .

Perluja Elysia’s actions had been justified as self – defense .

The chief’s heart ached , his regret intensifying .

How could anyone believe this child , who had never truly harmed anyone and had saved so many lives , was the monstrous figure others painted her to be 

[ Stellan , I knew you weren’t a saint .

Everyone , get him ! Punch , kick , do whatever it takes ! 

Stellan , you’re trash ! I can’t believe I defended your 

[ At least Stellan is honest .

He’s 

s admitting his mistakes on a live broadcast .

And let’s not forget , Elysia did say that line , Rupert didn’t frame her .

[ Honest ? Come on .

Nobody here is trying to deceive anyone .

The fact he even released Elysia’s memories proves he’s prepared to own up- I
