âHoney, how are you doing in Roz Town?â
The familiar voice took me by surprise.
It was none other than my father on the other end of the Line.
My heart ached.
My painful past surged up like a tide.
I remembered how my father ruthlessly drove me out of the Silver Ridge Pack since he was bewitched by Marley.
Pretending to be weak, Marley said to my father in a pitiful tone, âIâm not doing so well, honey.
I got injured at the welcoming ceremony, and my wounds might scar.
Donât you think I should make the person who did this to me kneel down and apologize?â
âHoney, thatâs only fair,â my father responded accordingly.
âHowâd you get hurt anyway? Do you need me to send a professional medical team over? Are you feeling better now?â
âNo, itâs okay.
â Having achieved her goal, Marley smiled with satisfaction.
âThere are doctors here.
I got hurt here, so they should take responsibility.
â
âOkay, if you insist.
Take care and donât work too hard,â my father said fawningly.
âHoney, I came across an acquaintance here.
I think you know her, too.
Do you want to talk to her?â Marley leered at me, grinning viciously
As she spoke, she pretended to hand over the phone to me.
This bitch!
She knew exactly what would hurt me the most.
Anger surged through my veins.
Blinded with anger, I knocked the phone out of Marleyâs hand without thinking.

The phone clattered to the floor and the call was inadvertently ended.
âWhat the hell did you do that for? You little tramp!â the servant cursed.
She squatted down to pick up the phone and handed it back to Marley.
I could tell that Marley wasnât done making trouble for me, so I had to warn her, âMess with me again and Iâll torture Colin.
â
Unexpectedly, Marley didnât buy it this time.
She crossed her arms over her chest and said calmly, âDebra, you have no idea where my brother is, do you?â
My blood ran cold.
How did she realize it so soon?
I took a deep breath and tried to keep my voice steady.
