Chapter 3

The disgusting stench rushed straight to my head.

I struggled violently and warned them that this was intentional assault.

However, they looked at me like I was dumb, mocking me for not knowing what was good for me.

“Get away from me!” I roared, suddenly jerking my head sideways and slamming it hard into Camila.

She lost her balance, and the bottle slipped from her hand, which caused most of the liquid to splatter onto Maria’s face beside her.

“Ah! My face! My eyes!”

Maria let out a piercing scream. The liquid seemed corrosive, and her face instantly turned red.

That completely enraged them.

“How dare you! Drag her in there!”

Camila pointed viciously at a storage room nearby, scowling.

The two male nurses grabbed me and dragged me inside like a dead dog. Then, they used medical bandages to bind my hands and feet to a cold metal chair.

Maria took out her phone and aimed it at my miserable face.

“Say it! Say you voluntarily accepted our purification because your private life is filthy!”

As she spoke, the two male nurses took out scissors and started cutting my clothes, preparing to film a short video.

That wasn’t all. Feeling that it wasn’t enough, they wanted to take things further.

Just then, frantic pounding came from downstairs.

“Maria! Open the door!”

Hearing my brother’s voice, I finally felt some relief.

At least I didn’t have to worry now.

However, a vicious smile appeared on Maria’s face, and she exchanged a look with Camila.

“Mom, go stall Liam. Tell him I was provoked by this shameless woman and might go into premature labor!

“Once everything’s done, we’ll use the video to force her to admit everything!

“Then she won’t be able to clear her name no matter what!”

The storage room door was locked from the outside.

Bit by bit, my heart sank.

I understood their plan now.

They were going to wait until Maria gave birth, then use this humiliating video to force me to submit and confess ‌everything.

They wanted to destroy my reputation, my career, and my life.

Outside the door, Camila’s crying grew louder and louder.

“Liam! Look at what your sister did!

“She was jealous of our Maria and pushed her down! If something happens to both mother and child, how are we supposed to live?!”

My brother tried to force his way in, but Camila blocked the door tightly, keeping him outside.

Inside the storage room, with my clothes cut to shreds, I instead calmed down.

I had to save myself.

With fingers aching from the tight bandages, I fumbled for the smartwatch on my wrist.

Hidden there was the highest-level emergency call function.

One press. Two presses. Three presses.

This was the emergency signal my brother and I had agreed on. It meant my life was in danger.

In the delivery room, Maria continued pretending to scream in pain while directing the two male nurses.

“What are you standing around for? Strip all her clothes off!

“A mistress should be prepared to be played with by men. It’s just the way it is!

“Later, just throw her out and let her walk out naked!”

The two male nurses exchanged glances and licked their lips as they approached me.

One of them had already taken off his pants.

I shouted urgently, “Are you insane?! This is illegal!”

Maria filmed everything with her phone. “So what if it’s illegal? It’s nothing my man can’t suppress!”

Hearing that, the two male nurses became even more brazen.

“I’ve never played with a woman before. I can’t wait.”

“Don’t worry, baby. I’ll make you feel very good.”

Just as they were about to tear off my underwear—

“Bang!!!”

A deafening crash echoed through the room as the storage room door was kicked open by brute force.

“Who dares to touch my sister?!”
