Chapter 183

Author: Lilian Green
She kept telling herself not to get angry.

Anger would only make her condition worse and serve no purpose at all.

Keith slipped an arm around her shoulder, straightening her so she faced him, then asked, “Want to go over there and vent some of that anger?”

Autumn looked up at him. “Do you have a way?”

She had wanted to do that for a long time.

Ever since her mother’s death anniversary, she’d been looking for an opportunity.

Not finding one didn’t mean she approved of what they’d done or had let go of their wrongs.

Keith’s dark eyes held hers. “Take my arm, and I’ll bring you in. Do whatever you want, I’ll back you up. How about it?”

Today, Simon had arranged this dinner through Jesse.

Keith hadn’t planned to go at first, but after thinking it over, he told Jesse to accept.

Autumn hesitated. She knew that with him there, things would be much easier.

No matter how far she pushed it, those people would just have to endure it—they wouldn’t dare cross Keith.

But was it really the right thi

    Hearing Autumn’s cold words, Hector felt as if his heart were being held over open flames—burning and unbearable.But he couldn’t argue back, because everything she said was true.He had done every mistake and cruel act . No matter how much he regretted it now, the damage was done. Even the chance to make amends was gone.After a long pause, he finally spoke. “We really didn’t know about you and Julian back then. You never mentioned it, and we thought you were only getting close to him to get back at Luna.“I’m sorry. We were wrong. We never thought about how you felt. I deserve every bit of this.”Every memory of what he’d done to Autumn cut into him like a knife, stabbing straight through his chest until he could barely breathe.Autumn’s lips curved into a cold smile. “You didn’t know? Then tell me, why do you think Luna had the nerve to provoke me so openly? Because you all enabled her.“If you fools hadn’t believed her every word and doubted me every time, she never would’ve dared

    Pain flickered in Hector’s eyes. “I’m sorry. I was a bastard back then. I did so many things that hurt you and Mom.“I regret it all now. I shouldn’t have believed Luna and her mother. I shouldn’t have helped them go against you.“And worst of all, I shouldn’t have doubted you. I mistook glass for diamonds. I was blind, completely blind. I’m sorry.”As he spoke, he slapped himself across the face—hard, again and again—until both sides of his cheeks were swollen.Autumn stepped back, staring at him in disbelief. “Regret that comes too late isn’t worth a dime. Your apology isn’t for me, it’s just to ease your own guilt. I don’t accept it.“I told you on the third anniversary of Mom’s passing that if you didn’t show up, whatever bond we had as siblings would end that day.“That was your last chance, and you threw it away. So, tell me, what right do you have to ask for my forgiveness now?”She’d already given up on the Lewis family long ago. None of them would ever be forgiven.No matter w

    After she was done talking, Luna turned and walked away. Hector stood there, jaw clenched, shaking with rage but powerless to do anything.Now he finally understood how Autumn had felt—being falsely accused, abandoned, and disbelieved by the people closest to her.The feeling was unbearable, like being carved open slowly, and yet Autumn had lived through that kind of pain again and again.When she’d been framed by Luna and her mother, he, his brother, and their father had all stood on their side.How hopeless must she have felt back then?Even after just one taste of it, he could barely endure it. Autumn had lived it for years. What kind of cruel life was that?Maybe this was his punishment.And as for his brother—his blind trust in Luna and her mother would one day come back to haunt him too.Hector packed a few clothes, had the driver drop them off at his old apartment, and then took a cab to find Autumn.He knew it probably wouldn’t change anything, but he still wanted to apologize

    Hector wiped the blood from his head, fury burning through him.“If it weren’t for everything you’ve done for us all these years, I would’ve thrown you both in prison a long time ago.“I kept giving you chances to come clean, and you wasted them. Don’t blame me now.“I just saw Grandma’s will in Luna’s hands, with her thumbprint on it. That’s proof she was murdered for the estate.”He lunged for the document, determined to tear it away; it was the one piece of evidence that would prove Luna had killed for money.Susan tried to stop him, but Hector shoved her hard; she hit the table corner, blood seeping out, and then she fainted.“Mom! What’s wrong? Don’t scare me. Wake up!” Luna cried.Hector still fought to snatch the will, but Simon shoved him aside.“Hector, are you insane? You beat Luna and now you’ve pushed Susan down.“How can you be so cruel? Get out! There’s no place for a brother like you in this family.”He thought to himself, “Hector, don’t make me do this. I’m doing it for

    Seeing the blood on the floor and the streaks around Luna’s mouth, Susan screamed, “You beat Luna until she’s coughing up blood. How can you say this is just an argument? Simon, if you don’t give me an explanation today, I won’t accept it.“Luna has an important signing tomorrow. She’s supposed to close that contract. Look at her now. How can she face anyone like this?“I seriously suspect Hector has a violent streak. First, he beat Autumn, and now he’s attacked our Luna. Well done, really!”The mother and daughter were holding a powerful card now; if the family crossed them, they could walk away at any time.With that leverage, they could take the contract to another firm; there was no need to stay and swallow this humiliation at the Lewis house.Thinking that, Susan straightened and snorted coldly, “Simon, I’m not saying this to shame you, but as the elder brother, you should punish your brother when he messes up, not sweep it under the rug.“Our Luna is a tech prodigy; she’ll be in

    “I don’t know what sister told you to make you misunderstand me so badly, but I swear I didn’t do any of those things.”She forced herself to stay calm. She couldn’t lose control now. She needed to think of a way to get this fool out of the house before he caused her trouble.With that thought, Luna burst into tears and grabbed Hector’s leg. “Hector, you’ve always cared for me the most. You can’t just believe whatever sister said and turn against me like this!“I may be only your half sister, but I’m the one who’s been by your side all these years, taking care of you.“Hector, please don’t be angry with me, alright? It’s all my fault. If you want to hit me or scold me, I’ll take it, just don’t stay mad.”No sooner had she finished speaking than Hector kicked her hard, so hard that she coughed up blood.But Luna’s lips curled faintly. The fish had taken the bait. Hector was still as hopelessly foolish as ever.A little provocation was all it took to make him lose control. Heaven was cle
