The flicker of warmth in Lily’s gaze iced over completely.

Her eyes locked on Luna with a glare as sharp as blades, and then a mocking laugh escaped her lips. “Mother...

raisedfor over ten years... Ms. Luna, you really are forgetful when it suits you. When | married James in

Mathilda’s place, we made things crystal clear-you and the Ginger family owenothing, and | owe you

nothing. So how dare you bring up the so-called kindness of raisingjust to guilt-trip me? And Wendy didn’t

mean it? She didn’t mean to do it-so | forced her to have that truck crash into me, then held her down and made

her pour liquor down my throat, so everyone would believe i was drunk and ran someone over? Ms. Luna, your

shamelessness is truly something else.”

Luna faltered, momentarily caught off guard and ashamed.

But faced with Lily’s eyes full of scorn, embarrassment turned to anger. She scowled and snapped, “You say you

don’t owe us anything? | raised you for over ten years. That's a fact. Lily, you'll never be able to repay what the

Ginger family did for you! If you have any conscience left, stop persecuting Wendy!”

“I owe the Ginger family nothing.”

Lily's voice carried a biting edge of self-mockery. “Yes, | ate your food, lived under your roof. But once | earned

my own money, | paid it all back-twice over. The money from the Luke family? I left it all with you. | owe you

nothing. It's you who owe me. Ever since Mathilda cback, you believed every twisted word out of her mouth

and turned against me-mocked me, bullied me. You threwinto a freezing river in the dead of winter. When |

fought to swim to shore, you kickedback in again. Over and over, until | was nearly drowned. Because of

that, | lost my ability to ever have children.

“If anyone here owes anything-it’s you. You owea healthy body. You're not worthy of my trust or my love.

None of you deserve to be called parents, or brothers. You don’t even deserve to be human.”

At the mention of the river, the expressions on the faces of the three Ginger brothers shifted, a flash of guilt

passing through their eyes.

They hadn’t known the punishment they’d given her would cost her the ability to ever have children.

But in their minds, they had acted only because she had tried to drown Mathilda first. So they shoved their guilt

aside.

What happened to her, in their eyes, was her own fault.

“What did you say?”

John stared at her in disbelief.

He hadn't known. He hadn't known Lily had gone through something like that. That she couldn’t have children

anymore.

He only ever wanted her. Even if they never had kids, he wouldn't mind.

But what shattered him was knowing she had been so cruelly abused and tormented.

Fury boiled in his chest. He turned and threw a vicious punch at the nearest person-Taylor-who took the blow

square in the jaw.

“How dare you treat her like that?! You deserve to rot for what you did!”

“She had it coming!” Taylor roared, retaliating with a punch of his own. “If she hadn't tried to drown Mathilda

first, we wouldn't have taught her a lesson! She brought it on herself!”

John clenched his fists until his knuckles cracked.

He didn’t want Lily to suffer. But if she’d been the one to start it, then maybe she wasn’t entirely in the right

either.

So he stopped, turning back to her with a hoarse voice. “I don’t care if we can’t have kids. Lily, as long as you

agree to forgive Wendy, | swear I'll treat you well for the rest of my life.”

If this had happened back when she loved John the most-if she'd found out she couldn't have children and he'd

said this to her-she would have cried from how touched she was.

She would've given him her heart, her soul, everything.

But now? She didn’t feel moved. Didn't feel touched. Just... insulted.

He said he’d treat her well, but he still believed she’d been the one to hurt Mathilda first. That she deserved her

punishment.

He still stood on Wendy and Elsa’s side, expecting her to be a saint and forgive them all.

So what right did he have to ask for her love?

But last night, she'd consulted her lawyer. What she’d done was serious. If Lily pressed charges, she'd go to jail.

No question.

To save herself, she gritted her teeth and bent her arrogant head, stepping up to Lily's bedside.
