Bonnie flipped to the next page. Her voice had already begun to choke with emotion.

[January 29th, 2025.]

[It was Grandpa's birthday today.]

[I should've gotten up early to go back to Dad's hometown, but because I was sick, I overslept.]

[By the time I got downstairs, Mom and Dad had already gotten into the car with Ethan.]

[Wanda, our maid, glanced into the house and carefully asked, "Is Mr. Henry still not ready?"]

[Mom frowned. "I think he just doesn't want to go out with Ethan, so he's

    Ethan knew there was no way left to defend himself.He screamed hysterically, "You say you gave me everything? Everything I lost before belonged to me in the first place!"I was only taking back what was mine! What did I do wrong?"Dad seemed agonized, but he said nothing more.Grandpa took a deep breath and turned to the officer. "Two days ago, I already had handwriting experts compare Henry's and Ethan's writing. You can compare them again against the exam papers."As he spoke, Grandpa pulled out my phone from his bag. "This is Henry's phone. I found it hidden in Ethan's room. It contains chat records between him, Ethan, and Celia."As for the videos, I already had people investigate them. The original uploads all came from Celia's phone."I also located witnesses from the bar. Please investigate everything they did to frame and coerce Henry."After hearing those words, my heart clenched painfully.I never knew Grandpa had done so much for me, and I never imagined there was

    Dad finally couldn't bring himself to look at Ethan anymore. He muttered to himself, "How could Henry be dead? This has to be fake."People in the audience had already started crying. "Henry was killed by all of you! The one who truly stole someone else's life was Ethan!"Bonnie's hands trembled as she turned to the final page of the diary.It was written with the last of my strength.The handwriting was crooked and uneven. Every stroke looked like it had been written in a race against death itself.[I thought I was really going to die.][It's just a shame it wasn't in Serenica, the place I loved most.][Suddenly, I recalled the first day I was brought into the Jefferson family.][Mom and Dad had looked at me with such affection as they lifted me high into the air, saying how adorable I was.][They decorated my room exactly the way I liked it. Plush toys covered the bed.][They took me to eat all kinds of desserts I had never tasted in the orphanage before. There were strawbe

    [June 23rd, 2025.][The SAT results finally came out. Ethan got the score he needed for Kingstone College just like he wanted.][Meanwhile, two of my subjects were invalidated, and I skipped another exam entirely. I failed completely.][I knew Ethan did it on purpose, but it didn't matter anymore.][I only wanted to fulfill my promise and see Grandpa one last time.][But I never expected him to kneel before the media and smear my reputation publicly.][I demanded to know why he went back on his word.][He only smiled and said, "If Grandpa sees you again and softens up, what if he leaves all his money to you?"][I completely broke down.][I felt so dumb for ever believing him.][After the interview aired, countless people found me online. They all told me to go to hell.][Dear Diary, do I really deserve to die?][Why does everyone want me gone so badly?]By the time Bonnie finished reading, she was already choking with sobs.People in the audience were wiping their tears a

    [January 30th, 2025.][Mom and Dad came back from Grandpa's house. The very first thing they did after returning was lock me in the basement while I had a high fever.][That was when I found out Ethan had projected my videos onto the giant screen at Grandpa's house.][Grandpa was so furious that he was hospitalized immediately.][I struggled desperately and pounded on the basement door.][That's because I wanted to get out and to see Grandpa.][But then I heard Ethan's voice outside the door. "Stop wasting your energy. That darned old man was still talking about you in the end. He kept saying you must've been forced into it. But luckily, Mom and Dad are still on my side."][I didn't care who Mom and Dad believed. I just wanted to see Grandpa.][Lowering my voice, I begged him. I told him that if he let me out, I would leave.][I wouldn't fight him for anything in the Jefferson family.][After all, I had already planned to leave for Serenica once the SAT test was over.][I wa

    Bonnie smoothed out my diary calmly and continued reading.[After Ethan got out of the car, he walked up to me with a smug look on his face.][He leaned close to my ear and whispered, "Do you think going back to our hometown means you can compete with me for their love? Dream on."]["This trip is supposed to be a surprise for Grandpa. Tell me, wouldn't it be perfect if he saw your videos and got so angry he died on the spot?"]["Once he dies, Dad inherits all the property immediately, and eventually it'll all belong to me. What share of it would you even have left?"][That was when I realized he knew about the videos too.][I was furious. I demanded to know why he and Celia were doing this to me.][But the next second, almost as if he'd rehearsed it beforehand, he suddenly fell backward onto the ground and burst into tears.][Mom and Dad ran out of the car to help him up. They then pointed at me and started yelling furiously. "Your brother got out to kindly ask if you wanted to

"I think he just doesn't want to go out with Ethan, so he's pretending to sleep in on purpose."][Dad added, "He's not even a real Jefferson anyway. It doesn't matter whether he goes or not."]Although Dad still didn't look quite happy, he wasn't as furious as before.He muttered, "Henry is so petty. Does he really have to write about something this trivial?"He was the one running late. How is that Ethan's fault?"The crowd stayed silent and stared at Bonnie, but the livestream comments began defending me.[Even if he's adopted, that's still a ho
