My younger brother had opened a high-end beauty salon, so I took my mother there for a facial. We picked the most expensive package, but the moment the mask was applied, Mom's face began to burn. When we peeled it off, her entire face was covered in rashes. I called for the director, but she looked impatient. "Oh, that's just a normal detox reaction." I was stunned. "Her face is practically ruined! What products are you even using?" "Ruined?" She flared up like someone had stepped on her tail. "Your mom's skin is just too bad to handle premium nutrients! Once our products are opened, they're non-refundable—got it?" I pointed to the brochure. "It says right here—'gentle and non-irritating, full refund if any adverse reaction occurs.' Is this how Stellan Fallow taught you to run a business?" She crossed her arms and lifted her chin high. "I am the boss! You and your mother look broke as hell—clearly here to mooch a free treatment. Now that it didn't work, you're trying to scam us for money? "Let me tell you something—this set costs 38 thousand, and with my emotional damages and lost wages, that's a total of 100 thousand. If you don't pay up today, I'll have the police take you both in!" A hundred thousand for a product that ruined someone's face? It was no wonder Stellan suddenly wanted to open a salon—it turned out he and his girlfriend were running a scam together! I was about to call Stellan, but before I could, she hit the video dial first. "Bubby, get over here—two broke idiots tried to freeload a treatment and now they're trying to shake us down for money!"

Stellan stared at the black-and-white pages in his trembling hands, his eyes turning red before he crumpled to the floor like a man whose world had just collapsed.Evelyn sensed the shift instantly. While everyone's attention was on Stellan, she tried to slip away quietly—but Julian stepped in front of her. "Ms. Scott, where do you think you're going?"All eyes turned to her. Evelyn stammered, "I… I'm pregnant. My belly doesn't feel right—I just need to see a doctor…"Stellan immediately dropped to his knees and pleaded, "Dad! Hazel! I'm sorry! I've realized my mistake, really! Even if we're not blood-related, we've been family all these years—please, give me another chance!"And Evelyn… she's carrying my child! That's something to celebrate, isn't it? Dad, you're going to be a grandfather! I'll make things right, I promise. I'll take care of Mom and make it up to everyone!"Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic.I gave Julian a look, and he understood immediately. He pulled out his phon

The light above the operating room finally dimmed. My mother had been pulled back from the edge, but her heart had sustained serious damage. She was transferred straight into the ICU for intensive care. If Julian hadn't been there beside me, I might have completely broken down.My father was overseas on business, and I hadn't told him what had happened. I was terrified that, in his panic, something might happen to him on the way back. Thankfully, he was due to return that day.Just then, footsteps echoed down the hall. When I looked up, Stellan appeared—three hours late—swaggering in with Evelyn, who was dressed to the nines.If he'd had even an ounce of conscience left, he would've been here the moment he learned our mother was in surgery."What more do you want, Hazel?" he snapped the moment he saw me. "Didn't Evelyn already apologize? Why do you keep clinging to this and blowing it out of proportion?"I was too tired to even be angry anymore. I finally understood what it meant

After the bodyguards dragged them out, I gently helped my mother steady her breathing. "Mom, your condition just stabilized. Don't worry about all this filth—I'll take care of it.""Hazel, I raised both you and Stellan. I treated you no differently. How did he end up like this?" Tears welled in her eyes and slid down her cheeks, soaking the edge of the pillow. All I could do was hold her hand tightly and sit beside her in silence, letting her grieve in her own quiet way.I thought that once we threw them out, things would finally settle for a while. But I had underestimated just how shameless Evelyn could be.As I was helping Mom sip some warm water, my phone began to vibrate nonstop. When I unlocked the screen, I found dozens of frantic messages from Julian. 'Ms. Fallow, we have a problem! Evelyn Scott is spreading rumors online about you and Mrs. Fallow—the internet's exploding!'My pulse quickened as I clicked the attached link. The headline hit me like a slap in the face. 'Shoc
Bullied at the Salon, I Snapped Chapter 6 For Love, He Forgot His Blood
The moment Stellan turned and saw our mother lying unconscious beside me, all the color drained from his face. "Mom! Mom, wake up! What happened to you? Who did this?!" He clutched her in his arms, his voice trembling, eyes wide with panic.Behind him, Evelyn and the two store employees finally realized what was happening. Their faces went pale as paper, fear written all over them.…My mother and I were rushed to the hospital. After emergency treatment, her condition stabilized at last. The doctors said it was acute heart failure triggered by allergies and asthma, and she'd need to stay for observation. I, on the other hand, escaped with nothing more than surface injuries and a deep puncture wound through my hand.Once my mother was transferred to a VIP ward, the very first thing I did was have the bodyguards bring Evelyn and the two employees who had hurt us straight to the hospital."Hazel, I'm so sorry! I've realized my mistake, I really have…" Evelyn's voice trembled as she s
