Chapter 9

Author: The Gardener's Robin
Ariel had been holding back her anger the entire way. But at this point, she finally reached her limit. She rolled up her sleeves, plucked her sunglasses from her face, and turned around to slap Erina across the face.

Erina staggered backward. She wiped the blood trickling from the corner of her mouth before lunging forward defiantly and grabbing Ariel's hair.

The two women were soon locked in a catfight.

"You bitch! How dare you still have the nerve to keep pestering Sebs?"

    Ariel had been holding back her anger the entire way. But at this point, she finally reached her limit. She rolled up her sleeves, plucked her sunglasses from her face, and turned around to slap Erina across the face.Erina staggered backward. She wiped the blood trickling from the corner of her mouth before lunging forward defiantly and grabbing Ariel's hair.The two women were soon locked in a catfight."You bitch! How dare you still have the nerve to keep pestering Sebs?""If I'd known that you were going to hurt him like this, I would have taken him away with me back then!""Stop it, both of you! Aren't you ashamed to be brawling in the middle of the street like this?" I yelled, rushing up to them and kicking Erina in the guts."Sebs!"Erina's eyes were bloodshot. She grabbed my pants leg tightly and refused to let go."I was wrong! I'm sorry! Give me another chance!""What kind of chance?" I said, stepping back as I flung off her hands expressionlessly. "Another chance fo

    "Dustin Nielson! How dare you lay a hand on my sister!" Jeffrey roared, his face twisting with rage as he lunged forward and grappled with Dustin."If it weren't for the fact that Jan loved you so much back then, I wouldn't even have helped you all this while!"You fucking animal! How dare you nearly get Jan killed? How dare you cause a rift between me and Sebastian when we'd already known each other for more than 20 years!"Dustin finally ran out of his patience and struck back, landing a punch squarely on Jeffrey's face."That's fucking enough!" he roared. "Did you think that you and your stupid sister were any better? Your sister's just a slut for getting pregnant before marriage! "And you've always been jealous of Sebastian for coming from a wealthier background than you! You were the one who approached me first, saying you wanted to get close to me so we'd ostracize him!"Every shred of pretense was finally being stripped away. And yet, Erina somehow felt a strange sense of

    I clapped my hands, and Ariel immediately brought Dustin's parents, Simon Nielson and Marina Chandler, forward.The elderly couple had a head full of gray hair and stooped backs. Their clothes were splattered with dust and mud from the journey here. Yet, despite their disheveled appearance, the kindness in their faces shone through.Simon stepped forward in a shaky manner, reaching out to take Dustin's hand. "Dustin, you're already married and with a child now? Why didn't you tell us about it?"Marina also wiped her tears from her eyes. "Yeah, Dustin. The last time you came home, you suddenly said you were severing all ties with us, and your dad got so anxious he wanted to come and look for you in the city, but he ended up falling from the hills and breaking his leg."Can't you please tell us what we did wrong to you?"Dustin pulled his lips in a firm line as he backed away, a look of panic crossing his face.Jeffrey immediately shielded Dustin behind him. "You still have the ner

    Erina and Dustin chose to hold Ruby's month-old celebration at the most luxurious hotel in Cantonia. The decor and arrangements were exactly as I had originally planned for my own child.On stage, Erina cradled the baby while nestled in Dustin's arms, delivering a speech for their daughter."Thank you all for coming to our daughter's month-old celebration today—""Aren't you going to thank me specifically for that?" I asked, cutting her off as I slowly made my way onto the stage amid everyone's shocked gazes."The both of you wouldn't even have gotten together if it were not for me. And seeing you both so happy makes me happy too. I even prepared two wonderful gifts for you two."Why don't you open it and see for yourself, Erina?"I took out the box from my bag and slid it over to her."Sebs!" she exclaimed in delight, handing the baby to Dustin and rushing over to me at once. But after giving me the once-over, she asked, "Where did you go yesterday? I searched everywhere for yo

    Erina and the rest of the group rushed to the police station at once, finding the baby safely in the nanny's hands.The police officer glared disapprovingly at Erina."What kind of a mother are you? How could you have sent your baby to the nanny at the daycare center and forgotten all about it? How do you think you're going to bring your child up when you're so careless and forgetful like this?"Erina was shocked. "Wait. You mean Ruby hadn't been taken away by someone? She was just sent to the daycare?"The police officer nodded and showed her the surveillance footage from the center. "It was your husband who sent the baby there too!"Erina immediately whirled around to stare at Dustin.Dustin shrugged and scratched the back of his head awkwardly. "I was just too tired lately and forgot about it, I guess."Jeffrey stepped up to defend him at once, shielding Dusting behind him. "Forget it, Erina. What's the point of blaming it on him now? Everything's fine now, and the baby is al

    I looked up blankly, only to catch a glimpse of evasiveness in Erina's eyes.Jeffrey then stepped in front of Dustin and glared at me. "Get this straight, Sebastian Mercer. You are the homewrecker who ruined their relationship instead of it being the other way around!"Mom produced a psychiatric evaluation report and apologized to the reporters. She said, "I'm so sorry. My son is suffering from a mental illness, and he's been pestering Erina for ages, even drugging her and trying to sleep with her, causing a lot of trouble for Dustin. I'm here to apologize on his behalf."I stared at Mom in complete disbelief. My emotions were so intense that my hands and feet went completely numb."Mom? Have you lost your mind? He is the one who—"At that moment, Erina returned with a group of people in white lab coats. They took the psychiatric report from Mom, and before I could even defend myself, they stuck a needle into my neck and injected a sedative into my bloodstream.As my vision faded
