Sabrina nodded hesitantly. "Did...did I do something wrong?"She was instantly overwhelmed by a feeling like something horrible was about to happen. Nine years ago, this was exactly how she had been taken away out of the blue when she was in her second year of college."It's still about the case nine years ago. The family of the victim has found you and intends on pressing charges again."Sabrina stayed silent."That's her! That's her! God damn it, it took me and my son so long to hunt you down! You man-stealing vixen, you wronged us and now you want to shift the blame?" A mid-aged woman roared at her.Sabrina was stunned, as she recognized the woman. It was the same middle-aged woman who clawed at her car door to take one look at her before leaving."Why you...!" At that moment, she was so furious that she was struggling to get words out."Nine years ago, you insisted that my man destroyed you, but he is such a good and honest man. He was old enough to be your father and we hav
If this was any other time, her father-in-law Sean would have never come, neither would he dare to lash out at his son. But today, Sean had been fierce from the moment he showed up and Sabrina was confused as to what was happening to her father-in-law. However, whatever baffled her had now made sense. She thought back to the scene where her father-in-law puked blood before passing out that morning, could it be that he was faking it as well? They had been aiming to lead Sebastian away. She finally understood, this was a diversion, just like how one would lure a tiger away from the mountain.She couldn't hold back her tears. What had she done wrong, for them to endlessly seek for her to repay over and over again! She had always been a child who was excellent in her studies while remaining modest. Her parents had been dutiful for their entire lives but what did they get in return? Her father died of illness, her mother had been imprisoned and was missing, while she was framed and sent in
The old Master chuckled. His tone was calm as though he had everything under control, which was also his way of showing his contempt to Sabrina. "I wouldn't have succeeded if I had nothing on you. Where there's smoke, there's a fire. You have to have weaknesses for this to work."She looked over at Lincoln and questioned, "You...are my dad, right? Biologically speaking?""I don't have a daughter as despicable as you," he responded fiercely."All these, just so you can save your lovely daughter laying in the hospital?" she mumbled."Shouldn't you save her?" Lincoln roared. "Both of you have the same blood coursing through your veins, and yet you plan on watching her die! How did I become a father to such a cold-blooded monster like you?"Cold-blooded monster!" Sabrina muttered to herself. She lifted her head to gaze at the sky above, trying to blink back her tears. She looked back to the old Master Shaw and said, "now I truly believe what you said before.""About what?" he asked,
"I agree! With no cost or conditions!" she answered decisively."Too bad, it's too late now!" The ruthlessness in the old Master Shaw's words made Sabrina feel as though she was suffocating. His tone became increasingly cold and merciless as he continued, "Why would I settle with one of your kidneys, when I can have both?"She swallowed. "Is there no room for negotiation?""I'm sorry, but you are in no place to negotiate with me!"Sabrina chewed on her lips as tears scrolled down her face despite all her effort of holding them back. She was biting down so hard that she was close to drawing blood. Once again, she was pushed to the edge of a mental breakdown at the old Master Shaw merciless ways and roared, "come on then! Kill me! Lincoln Lynn, I, Sabrina Scott, will haunt you for life even after my death! You were the one who fathered me, I didn't ask to be born into this world, why do you have to treat me and my mother like that? Did you even fulfill your duty to us even for a day
The roar had stunned everyone at the scene, startling every single person for how hoarse and rough the sound that erupted from the crowd was. It sounded as though it was coming from a beast that was ready to fight for its life. Followed by the voice, a person found her way out of the crowd. The figure barely looked human. The figure that darted out had no resemblance to humans nor phantoms. The clothes on her were ragged and tainted to the point that one could barely tell its original color. The clothes were filled with patches, leaving little to no space on the fabric that was untouched. The person was holding a long, thick wood stick and stood before Sabrina. Because of the close proximity, Sabrina was able to see everything about the person. Her hair was all tangled up in little knots of dirt and soil, covering half of her face and showing only her two hazy eyes, which were glaring at the old Master Shaw."Shaw, you try touching a hair on my daughter and I will tear your granddaugh
"I didn't know whose child it was in my belly. I was finally out of jail, but I had no money and no place to go. I went back to the Lynn Family in search of justice. I confronted Lincoln Lynn as to why he lied to me and refused to save your life. He told me that he tried but you didn't make it through, and told me that he buried you back in our hometown. I wanted to go back but I didn't have any money on me. I had an unborn child on the way and I couldn't go back.""I'm sorry, Mom, I'm sorry. I didn't know that you have been alive all this time. I thought you were dead, I thought that you were buried by my father. I was desperate to earn some cash, just enough for me to travel back to our hometown, but then I was hunted down by the Lynns. I hid for six whole years out there, but no matter where I ran to, Lincoln and Jade could always find me. I had no choice but to hide my identity and move around, and then...""Half a year ago, the father of my child found me, and we finally managed
Marcus approached the stray woman as he called her his aunt. The woman froze and turned her hazy eyes to Marcus. The tears from her eyes flowed down her cheeks, washing the dirt away as they went. She looked at Marcus with blood-like tears falling from those eyes. In a hoarse voice, she asked, "Young man, what...did you just call me?"Marcus stepped forward and held the woman's hands in excitement. "Auntie, you are my aunt, right? You are not the child of my step-grandmother, but my actual grandmother. You are my aunt by blood."His speech was unorganized due to his frantic state. "But auntie, you were raised by my step-grandmother. The two of you were forced to move away from the Shaw residence and lived in a small house. In the year you turned eighteen, my step-grandmother told my grandfather that you are actually my grandmother's child. My step-grandmother, she was an incredibly talented person. I still keep her drawings with me till this day..." Marcus studied his aunt's expressi
"Do you even eat like a human? No! You must be surviving on human blood! Old bast*rd, not only do you want my daughter's kidneys, you even try to frame her for all those crimes. You think that she doesn't have someone to depend on or someone who would defend her, don't you? Well, you are wrong! There's me! I am going to defend my daughter! You old bast*rd who only dares to bully to weak! You think that you are the almighty man who could just take whoever's life as you please? You tried to harm my daughter over and over again by insulting and humiliating her, because you thought that she had no one to back her up, right? Let me tell you something, you old bast*rd, I am my daughter's back-up! Anyone of you try to hurt her and I'll murder every last member of your family! I've already become a stray who sleeps in the sewers everyday, what else do I have to be afraid of?"Her words shook every person standing at the scene and rendered them speechless. Some had started pointing the blame t
