Chapter 4

Author: Windchill
With that, her eyes rolled back and she collapsed limply in Shawn's arms, faking unconsciousness. Her acting was so superb that Oscar owed her an award.

Shawn didn't even spare me a glance. He only had eyes for his kind, harmless fake sister.

"Janice! Janice, what's wrong?!"

He shouted anxiously, then turned to me. He looked as if he wanted to hack me into a thousand pieces.

"You vicious woman! If anything happens to Janice, you'll pay with your life!"

He strode over and kicked my wounded thigh hard. The excruciating pain made my vision go black, cold sweat instantly soaking my back.

The doctor rushed in, took in the scene, and immediately understood what was expected of him. He made a show of examining Janice.

"Mr. Lingard, this is bad! Miss Janice is experiencing myocardial ischemia from extreme shock!

"If she doesn't get a blood transfusion immediately, it could lead to heart failure!

"But the camp is remote and has no blood bank..."

What a clumsy lie. Shock required a blood transfusion? It was a blatant robbery.

Shawn's gaze instantly locked onto me viciously.

He knew I had O-negative blood, making me a universal donor.

"Take hers!"

Shawn pointed at me and ordered without any hesitation.

"As long as Janice is saved, drain her dry for all I care!"

I weakly raised my head and looked at my biological brother.

"I... just survived an avalanche... I've already lost… too much blood... Drawing blood now... is murder..."

My voice was hoarse, offering the last shred of rational protest.

Shawn scoffed and crouched down, grabbing my hair and forcing my head up.

"You dare talk about living? A cheap life like yours is tough. Losing a little blood won't kill you!

"If Janice doesn't wake up, I'll make your whole family pay with their lives!"

He pinned down my struggling arm and signaled the doctor to proceed.

The doctor didn't hesitate either. He instantly produced a thick needle and roughly jabbed it into my vein that had already shriveled from hypothermia without performing disinfection.

Bright red blood flowed along the tube, rapidly filling the collection bag.

As the blood drained from me, my vision started to blur. I felt a bone-chilling cold, and my heartbeat turned extremely weak.

Janice, in Shawn's arms, secretly opened an eye to peek. She flashed me a venomous smile, like she was watching livestock being bled out for slaughter.

I smiled too. It was a smile of release.

Looking at that bag that had once been my life source, I finally understood.

The so-called family love was nothing but a lethal shackle.

In the last moment before my life force drained away, I summoned all my strength and cried out, "Dad! Mom!"

The next second, a thunderous boom shook the world.

The entire wall of the storage room was blown open!

Gravel flew everywhere.

The doctor holding the blood bag was sent flying by the shockwave. The blood bag in his hand smashed to the floor and burst, splattering Shawn's face.

The dust settled. Three figures in top-tier black tactical gear stood silhouetted against the light like deities who descended from heaven.

My adoptive mother TNT held the latest C4 detonator, red lips curved in an elegant and crazed smile.

My adoptive father Old Hawk had a sniper rifle raised, the red dot of the infrared sight locked onto Shawn's forehead.

Eason twirled a Nepalese kukri knife in his hand.

"Anna."

Eason's voice carried a chilling excitement.

"It seems your brother's not just naughty, he's also a vampire. Shall I drain all his blood for you?"

    I looked at Shawn."Brother, you're right. The snowy mountain is a nice place. Great view, perfect for burying people."Shawn stared at the detonator in my hand and finally broke down. He let out a desperate roar, "NO!!!"I pressed the button.The explosion triggered a chain reaction. The entire peak trembled. A white wave of snow instantly swallowed up the two tiny humans.Their screams were cut off before they had even escaped the throats, completely engulfed by the wind and snow.No rescue. No miracle. This time, it was a complete burial.Looking at the vast expanse of white, the last knot in my chest finally loosened.Anna Lingard was dead. That pitiful creature who craved familial love was dead.Eason walked over and draped a thick military coat over my shoulders. My adoptive father's tall frame stood in the wind's path, shielding me from all the snow and wind. My adoptive mother gently held my hand."Let's go home, Anna."I looked at them, my eyes growing warm. The

    We pushed open the basement door.The heavy metallic door made a dull sound as it opened. Shawn and Janice immediately sprang apart, staring at us in horror."That's quite an elaborate plan, Shawn."I looked at Shawn with a half-smile."Unfortunately, Uncle Hank won't be coming."I snapped my fingers. The projector on the wall lit up, showing a live broadcast from an international news channel.On screen, the usually respectable-looking Hank was being shoved into a police car by two Interpol officers, his head pressed down.The headline read: "Transnational Crime Syndicate Dismantled—Lingard Corporation Executive Suspected of Arms Smuggling and Attempted Murder."And in the informant column were the words: Dark Night.Shawn and Janice were dumbfounded. Their last hope had burst like a soap bubble.Shawn collapsed to the floor, muttering to himself: "Impossible... impossible..."Janice was so terrified she lost control of her bladder. A foul stench spread through the air.

    He clutched the bedsheet, his eyes filled with desperate hope.He was betting that I would show mercy, betting that I still craved family affection.I sat by the bedside, watching him grovel like a dog. My eyes gradually "softened". I sighed, as if resigning myself, as if compromising."Brother, I am a Lingard after all. The company is the fruit of Mom and Dad's labor. I don't want to see it destroyed either."Shawn's eyes burst with surprised delight. He thought I had turned back into that easily manipulated pushover."Yes, yes! We're a family! If you make those people stop, I'll listen to everything you say from now on!"I picked up a bowl of warm soup from the bedside table and gently stirred it with a spoon."Brother, have some soup. It'll help you recover. After you finish, we can have a good, long talk about how to save the company."Shawn was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes. He opened his mouth and drank.Unbeknownst to him, the soup was laced with a neuroto

    "Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"It was Mr. Lingard's fault! Mr. Lingard forced me to draw the blood!"It was also Mr. Lingard who told me to pull the tube! It has nothing to do with me!"My adoptive father nodded, his tone flat."Since Mr. Lingard enjoys pulling tubes and drawing blood so much, let him experience it himself."Eason immediately understood.He efficiently strapped Shawn onto a simple stretcher and gave him no anesthesia.He pulled out a row of gleaming scalpels from his bag and laid them out one by one."Shawn, I heard you're a business prodigy. I wonder if the inside of your body is different from ordinary people."Shawn struggled frantically, tears and snot smeared across his face."I have money! I'll give you money!"I'm the CEO of Lingard Corporation! I'll give you as much money as you want! Shares! I'll give you shares too!"Let me go! I'm Anna's brother!"He finally remembered that he was my brother.I sat in a wheelchair while my adoptive mother band

    The explosion left Shawn's ears ringing and his vision spinning. He instinctively shielded Janice, the cruel expression still lingering on his face.But when he saw what stood before him, he froze completely.Then, his legs started to tremble uncontrollably.These were not ordinary people. They were killing machines armed to the teeth.My adoptive father's tactical vest was covered in magazines, and the caliber of his sniper rifle was terrifyingly large. Even someone who knew nothing about guns could tell that one shot from that gun would blow the top of a skull clean off."Who are you?! This... This is Lingard family's territory!"Shawn forced himself to shout, but his voice shook like a leaf in the wind.Bang!My adoptive father didn't waste words and instantly pulled the trigger. The bullet grazed Shawn's scalp and hit the fire extinguisher hanging behind him.Psssh—White powder erupted, covering Shawn and Janice in a cloud of white dust, leaving them looking disheveled
