Lahat ng Kabanata ng Scammed at My Sister’s Restaurant: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 9

We were in the dark room. I was their prisoner. The manager said nothing. The first thing he did was slam his foot into my belly. He wore leather shoes. The agony made me grunt as my stomach churned."That's for spending my girlfriend's money! That's for butting into her business!"Harold's roars kept coming. His voice was getting hoarse and twisted. Jealousy and fury oozed from his tone.He looked at me like I was inferior to him, and he told his bodyguards. "Mess him up. Teach him a lesson!"The bodyguards were his trusted confidants. They did not hesitate to carry out his orders. And then a rain of fists crashed into my body.I clenched my teeth, swallowing the pain that was making my flesh scream. Even so, I could feel my bones threatening to be crushed into smithereens. My organs were going to move around too.Harold did not stop taunting me. "You are nothing but a loser who leeches off his sister!""I told you, I'm her brother! Ask her! Call her! I'll talk to her!"I trie

The air itself froze. Not a soul made a sound. Only the echoes of my shoe tapping against the ground remained.Step by step, I approached the couple in the center. The one locked in an embrace. The look on Selina's face was priceless.First, there was shock, and then unshakeable horror, and then her face quickly turned whiter than paper. She let go of Harold without even thinking. As she tried to stand, she saw the pained look on Harold's face. Her terror turned into hesitation.In the end, she masked her fear with a headstrong mask. She remained seated, her eyes nailed on me, as if that was enough to keep her panic down.The moment Harold saw him, his pupils shrank, but then he realized we were on Selina's turf, and they had numbers on their side. That gave him the courage to lie in Selina's arms and wail, "Selina, that's him! That's the guy!"He looked at me with venom and smugness in his eyes, as if he was challenging me to do something to him.He was saying, 'See? She tak

I did not hold back with my slap. Selina's head turned sideways, and her cheek started to swell.That slap caught her off guard, and so did everyone else. She put a hand on her swollen cheek. When she looked at me again, her eyes were filled with disbelief and humiliation. "H-How dare you…""That was a wake up call." My voice was cold enough to freeze fire. I scanned the whole crowd before returning to Selina again. "I'm sure you think that the princess of the Grayheims owns this place."No one said anything. I smiled, but it never reached my eyes. "You think so too, don't you, Selina? You think that you should own everything because it's your birthright. This villa, the supercars, the company's shares, and that black card with an unlimited credit I gave you."Selina said nothing, but with how defiant her gaze was, that was enough."Have you ever wondered why our father gave me 90% of the company's shares when he obviously likes you more? Have you ever wondered why I cleared all t

Things moved smoother than I imagined. There was enough evidence to prove Harold guilty. The restaurant's surveillance footage, my wound assessment, the transaction records, and his bodyguards' testimonial. He had no way out, and so he was sentenced to three years in prison.If the stories were true, he cried and screamed for Selina in court, claiming she would save him.Selina had more important matters to tend to. Namely, her own survival. She did not have a single cent after I kicked her out. The people she called friends were nowhere to be found.Then, she tried to seek out Grandpa, but he never liked her, not when he knew who she really was. And because of the hold I had on the family, he refused to see her.When she tried to go to the company, the guards stopped her right in the lobby. It was embarrassing.She finally knew what it felt like to fall from grace. Then, she found Michael's number and would not stop calling him. Day to night, that was what she did. She begged Mic
