Chapter 5

Author: Rich and Skinny
Blaire was stunned for a moment, and then she looked at them calmly and uttered, "I think I already mentioned it before. I was the one who saved you during the earthquake."

She was about to marry Matthew, so she hadn't thought of using this matter to win their favor. She was merely stating the facts, yet the three brothers immediately exploded with anger.

"Now you're even getting an accomplice to help you put on a show to deceive us."

"Do you think we would believe your nonsense by doing this? We know very well who saved us."

"Blaire, no matter how well you pretend or try to win us over, we'll never marry you."

Blaire was not surprised when she heard these words, as if she had expected it. They wouldn't believe it. Even if the evidence was right in front of them, they still wouldn't believe it.

Thus, this would be the last time. She would never say a word about it again in the future.

She shut her eyes and wanted to drive them away, but Brandon suddenly spoke. "We've long known about the earthquake, but Tammy's face is still swollen from your slap. You must kneel and apologize to her."

Blaire could hardly believe what she was hearing. It was just a slap; how could it still not have healed by now?

Moreover, it was Tammy who had broken her stuff. They had already thrown her into the pool to humiliate her, and now they wanted to force her to kneel and apologize?

"She broke my thing. Why should I apologize to her?"

When he saw her refusal, Anthony's eyes instantly turned cold. With an imposing demeanor, he said in a deep voice, "You have to go today."

He then ordered his bodyguards. "Bring her over and make her kneel before Tammy. She can only leave when Tammy forgives her."

Not only Blaire, but even the doctor found it completely outrageous. He wanted to defend her but was restrained by the bodyguards.

A burly bodyguard forcibly removed the IV needle from Blaire's hand, and another bodyguard dragged her off the hospital bed. She was utterly weak and barely recovered, having no strength to resist at all.

The moment she was pushed out the door, she braced her body firmly against it, upholding her dignity as the daughter of the Presley family.

She hadn't done anything wrong. There was no way she would apologize, especially not to the housemaid's daughter who had slandered her.

Her fingertips turned white from the force, and tears fell in large drops as she cried out, "If you dare force me to apologize, I'll end myself today."

The defiance and stubbornness in her eyes struck the three brothers deeply. It was the first time they had seen her cry after all this time. Seeing her so emotional, they were a little surprised and inexplicably panicked.

After a long silence, Anthony's expression grew uneasy as he coldly warned. "We'll let it slide this time. If you dare to bully Tammy again, we won't let you off so easily next time."

Brandon's and Cameron's expressions also softened, and they were no longer as firm as before. "Let her go."

After being released, Blaire leaned tightly against the wall. It wasn't until the three brothers had left that her tears began to fall uncontrollably.

She stayed in the hospital for a full three days. She was only discharged after her body had recovered.

The first thing she did after being discharged from the hospital was not to go home, but to buy a few bouquets of flowers and hurried to the house Matthew gave her. She planned to complete the final touches.

But when she opened the door of the house, she could hardly believe what she saw. The meticulously decorated house was now in a complete mess.

All the wedding decorations were removed and replaced with pink and white decorations and balloons, featuring the words, "Happy 23rd Birthday, Tammy!"

The cute, cozy, and festive ornaments were all covered in cream and colorful ribbons.

The music was deafening, and everyone was immersed in the joyful atmosphere of the birthday celebration. The noisy crowd was fooling around in the villa, and the five-layer giant cake had almost become a weapon in their cake fight.

Blaire felt as if her heart had stopped. She fought to keep her composure as she walked over to unplug the speaker, cutting the music off abruptly.

    Cameron suddenly pulled out a pair of wedding rings and dropped to one knee before everyone."Don't listen to them, Blaire. I know you actually love me, right?"Marry me. I love you. I want to take care of you for the rest of my life. Let's start a life together. No more misunderstandings, okay?" he begged.The diamond ring sparkled even more brightly under the bar lights.His eyes were filled with nothing but sincerity and love."You like my movies, so I'll take you with me wherever I go to film. My fans are reasonable. They'll accept you. We can go public with our relationship, and you'll have everyone's blessing."Matthew's expression darkened as he watched the three of them challenge him right to his face. Jealousy burned deep inside him.At that moment, Blaire gripped Matthew's hand, letting him feel her warmth. She smiled at him as if to calm him down.Then, she turned back to Brandon and Cameron, her smile turning cold."Haven't I made myself clear? I'm happy with my li

    Tammy panicked the moment she heard what Matthew said. She quickly fell to her knees, begging for mercy. "I'm sorry! I was wrong! Please don't send me to prison!"She knew that if Matthew wanted her gone—even if she had done nothing wrong—she would still end up behind bars. Not to mention, she really had committed so many offenses.Tammy kept sobbing. The lingering effects of the drug made her voice sound oddly seductive, but Matthew didn't even give her a glance. His attention remained on Blaire by his side."No. A person who does wrong must be punished," he said coldly, leaving no room for compromise.When he finished speaking, Tammy was taken away before she had another chance to apologize.Just then, Anthony, Brandon, and Cameron rushed over."Blaire, we got stuck in traffic and came a little late. Are you alright?"They all worried about Blaire.Blaire didn't look at them or say a word.Anthony didn't mind her coldness. He held out a bouquet of fresh roses."Blaire, let

    Anthony saw the messages too. His face darkened, and there was a dangerous glint in his eyes.Cameron glanced at it and couldn't hold back his anger. He kicked Tammy in the chest."How dare you lay a finger on Blaire! You are about to learn how wrong you are!"With that, Anthony called in the bodyguards and had them take Tammy to Nightfall Bar."If she was going to drug Blaire, let her get a taste of the suffering!"Brandon's eyes flashed with fury, and he gritted his teeth. He ordered the bodyguards to take a stronger drug along.Blaire still went to the bar the next evening at six, even though she knew it was a trap. However, she came with Matthew."If anything happens later, stay close to me and protect me," she said nervously.Matthew gave a faint smile and nodded. "Alright. Don't worry. As long as I am here, you can do whatever you want."They headed for the private room Tammy had reserved, only to hear chaos inside.When they opened the door, Tammy was in the middle of a

    Tammy bit her lip and stomped in frustration, her expression dark."Brandon, you said you didn't want to marry me, and I've already asked to cancel the engagement. What more do you want? I just want things to go back to the way they were."I know it was wrong to take credit for saving your lives. I've already been punished. Can you forgive me?" she pleaded.She raised her voice and shouted through the door, but Brandon gave no response.Before long, Anthony and Cameron came out, annoyed by the noise."What is all this racket?" Anthony asked, displeased.Tammy instantly softened her voice and pursed her lips pitifully. "I asked Brandon to help me apply the medicine, but he said no. Can you help me?"She looked at the two of them with pleading eyes.Cameron refused without a second thought. "No. If he won't do it, I won't either. Don't you have your own hands? Or a mirror, maybe?"Anthony coldly refused to help her as well.Tammy's expression froze for a moment.Then, she noti

    Olivia cleared her throat and signaled everyone to quiet down. "I know how you treated Blaire. William and I saw it all. Matthew will deal with you, and we won't step in."But look what you've done to Tammy now. What about her reputation? What about the Carter name?"You said you liked her at first, and now you want to break off the engagement? I already made it public. I can't just take it back!"Unless the three of you find someone you truly want to marry. Otherwise, someone else will just end up getting hurt!"Right after she said this, Olivia stood up angrily and was about to leave.Matthew stepped forward and helped her, while Blaire followed close behind.Once they were gone, all the hope faded from Anthony's eyes."There is no chance anymore," he mumbled in disappointment.Brandon and Cameron stayed silent.After a long silence, Cameron clenched his fists and spoke hoarsely. "That can't be. Blaire chased after us for so long. How can she not like at least one of us?"S

    The entire room fell silent as though the air had frozen.William and Olivia, seated in the center, looked furious. William slammed his cane against the floor, the sharp sound cutting through the silence and drawing all eyes to him."Anthony, Brandon, Cameron, explain yourselves. What on earth is going on?"With a crash, William threw his teacup to the floor, shattering it into pieces.At his words, they dropped to their knees. Their faces had gone pale, and it was clear they weren't in good shape either."Grandpa, it's my fault. I messed up, but I really don't want to marry Tammy. She lied to us. That's why we acted like we liked her and didn't marry Blaire—Aunt Blaire. But I've made up my mind now. I don't want to be stuck with someone like her. Please let me end the engagement!"Anthony spoke first, his voice firm.Brandon nodded immediately. "I feel the same way as Anthony. I never loved Tammy, and I never will. I'm not going to marry her. Grandpa, Grandma, please cancel the
