Taylor closed his eyes in torment. When he opened them again, the grief and regret inside seemed enough to

devour his soul.

“And you keep saying Lily stole your life, that she took your place...”

He suddenly lifted his gaze toward Bodger and Mergan. “Ask yourselves honestly-was Lily ever enjoying some

blessed life by being adopted into the Ginger family? If anything, she healed us. She even saved bothand

Mom's lives. She owes us nothing! In fact, if she had been adopted by the Luke family instead, she would've

lived better. If she had gone to the Luke family, she wouldn't have been bullied, wouldn't have been targeted by

us, wouldn't have been left alone, helpless... How unlucky was she, to end up in our house instead?”

Every word shredded him from the inside out.

His voice broke as he pressed his hands to his face, choking back sobs until he could speak again.

He looked at his brothers, anguish twisting his face. “We always said blood was thicker than water, that Mathilda

was our blood sister, so we had to protect her. But the truth is, blood means nothing. Even without our blood, Lily

called us her brothers for twelve years. She was family. She was our sister. And yet we abandoned her, for that

parasite, and drove her into despair with our own hands!”

The raw truth in Taylor's voice pierced Bodger and Mergan. They squeezed their eyes shut, their hearts seared

with pain.

They had always known Lily hadn't caused Mathilda’s abduction.

But they’d buried the truth beneath their guilt, shoving all blonto Lily to escape their own conscience.

And deep down, they had always known Lily was more innocent than any of them.

After Mathilda was found, they could have cherished both-making amends to their blood sister while continuing

to love the foster sister who had saved them again and again.

Instead, like fools bewitched, they believed every poisonous word Mathilda spoke. And they had broken Lily's

heart beyond repair.

When Lily had first cinto the Ginger family, they had wanted to be good brothers, to treat her with all the

warmth in their hearts.

How had they grown up only to grow crueler, to nearly destroy the very sister who gave them warmth?

most now was to see Lily, to look her in the eye and say the words that burned his throat: *I was wrong. | regret

everything.*

“I need to find Lily. | need to beg for her forgiveness...”

He didn’t look at his brothers again, didn’t care to hear Mathilda’s excuses. Muttering hoarsely, he staggered

toward his car.

“I'm going too. | have to see her...”

Bodger, filled with regret, rushed after him.

Mergan’s heart twisted with a darker, selfish emotion. He still couldn't bear that Lily carried James's child.

But knowing how badly they had wronged her, he told himself it was understandable that she had sought

someone to lean on, that she had ended up pregnant with James's baby.

Once he found a way to get rid of that child, he thought grimly, he would cradle her in his hands and cherish her

the way he should have all along.

With that in mind, he cast Mathilda a cold, hateful glance before striding off to join his brothers.
