Chapter 7

Author: Perfect Timing
When Ollie saw how badly I'd been beaten, his face twisted with rage.

"You've been with me all these years and still couldn't recognize my sister? How could you let people do this to her? I'll teach you a lesson!"

Tyler groveled again, looking desperate.

"I swear, I didn't know! They cut off all her hair, gave her a silly name, and beat her up so badly—how could I have possibly recognized her? If she had been her real, beautiful self, of course, I would've known right away!"

At that, Ollie's eyes reddened.

"I washed her long hair and took care of it since she was a kid. How dare you cut it off!" His voice dropped, cold and sharp. "Throw him in a boiling vat and burn off every hair on his body."

Roger's face went pale with terror. He tried to beg, but the guards dragged him away.

Meanwhile, the doctor hooked me up to an IV and carefully cleaned and bandaged my wounds. Margaret, Neil, and Ollie hovered around me, full of concern.

But no matter how kind they acted, I couldn't brin

  • The Last Tear   Chapter 9

    My mother raised her hand toward me, but before she could strike me, Margaret grabbed her hand."She's so stubborn. Mia, you shouldn't have saved her."I sat up and shook my head."I had to. She risked her life to give birth to me. I owe her at least one life in return."Margaret thought about it, then slowly let go of my hand."You're right. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have you. But I'm worried she'll hurt you in the future. I don't want you two to meet again."With that, Margaret ordered them to wheel my mother away. She told the guards to lock her in a dark room and give her one small meal and some water every day, just enough to keep her alive.I didn't argue anymore.As my mother was pushed out, she screamed in desperation, "I'm your real mom! Save me!"I let out a long sigh.More than saving my mother, I wanted to save all the innocent people who were dragged into this.Another month passed.One day, Ollie's men brought back a beautiful young woman. They said sh

  • The Last Tear   Chapter 8

    Margaret gently laid me back on the bed, then called the bodyguard in."How's that woman?""Her right leg got chopped off and fed to the dogs. She passed out from blood loss, but she's not dead yet.""Good. Patch her up. Don't let her die."The guard nodded and left.I relaxed a little.This was all the payback my birth family brought on themselves.My mother always complained that she almost bled out and died from giving birth to me. Well, this time I returned the favor. She bled out the same way, but I made sure they saved her.I spent the next month lying in bed, recovering.Honestly, I was mostly healed after ten days, but the doctor insisted on telling my foster parents and Ollie that I needed at least a month of rest.They assigned a few people to watch over me 24/7. I couldn't go anywhere except my room.One afternoon, while watching TV, I saw a news report. The media had noticed our whole family went missing after a trip to Tranvego. They'd already tracked where we d

    The moment those words left Margaret's lips, everyone froze.Tyler finally snapped to his senses. His legs gave out, and he collapsed to his knees. His voice shook as he stammered, "Y-you're Miss Mia? No way… This can't be real!"Margaret ignored him completely. She pulled a handkerchief from her pocket and gently dabbed the blood off my face."From the time you were little, we never let anyone lay a finger on you. And now look at you, beaten half to death. If you hadn't run off, this never would've happened…"Tyler broke down completely. He spun around and groveled before me, looking as if he was about to kiss the ground."I'm sorry, Miss Mia! I didn't recognize you! Please forgive me!"My family just stood there, stunned, still trying to figure out what was happening.Margaret soon got annoyed by Tyler's voice and waved her hand impatiently."Quiet. You're disturbing my baby girl."She glanced at one of her men. "Go. Bring a doctor to check her injuries."Tyler, as if he'd

    "Bambi?"Margaret said my name in a cold, distant voice, then turned her sharp gaze on my parents and Roger."Yes, that's her," my father said quickly, eager to please. "She's cursed and nearly dragged our whole family down with her. So, we gave her a silly name as a kind of payback."My mother chimed in right away, "That's right! But now that she belongs to you, you can call her whatever you want."Roger, noticing Margaret's expression falling, leaned close to Tyler and whispered, "Hey, can we leave now? Let's just sign the papers and grab the money."Tyler motioned for him to shut up, then asked Margaret carefully, "Mrs. Fuller, should I go ahead and send this girl to the winery?"Margaret didn't answer him. Instead, she reached down and helped me to my feet. Her hands trembled as she ripped the tape off my mouth.The scab on my swollen, torn lips ripped open again, and blood dripped down, splattering onto her high heels.Tyler's face darkened. He shoved me aside and dropped

  • The Last Tear   Chapter 4

    Two days later, the car finally stopped. My family dragged me out, and the second they yanked the hood off, a wave of sadness hit me.I had guessed correctly. It was the house I'd lived in for 18 years.The statues at the front gate still had the dark circles I'd drawn on them as a kid, back when I thought it was hilarious.I glanced around, caught up in my thoughts, when my father suddenly slapped me so hard that my ears rang."Keep your damn eyes down. Don't look at things you're not supposed to."It was a while before the gates creaked open. Then out stepped a tall, broad-shouldered man.It was Tyler.Roger hurried forward, rubbing his hands together nervously. "Hello, Ty. We brought the girl, just like you asked. So, uh…"Tyler's gaze swept over me, and he frowned."You didn't have to rough her up this badly."Over the past two days, my family had beaten me more times than I could count. To keep me quiet, they'd even taped my mouth shut so I wouldn't blurt anything like l
