Chapter 24 Fatal Oh , youre finally willing to come back , huh ? Jacks voice dripped with sarcasm once he saw me .
I thought youd spend more time cuddling with Eric .
Is that how you talk to your sister ? Dad shot him a stern glare , and Jack was forced to restrain himself slightly .
Still , he retorted somewhat begrudgingly , Dad , shes acting bold because you and Mom spoil her so much .

She meets up with Eric late at night .
I dont care if she chooses to degrade herself like that , but what about the fact that she drugged Elsa ? Thats evil .
Are we going to let that slide too ? Jack got more agitated as he spoke .
He shot to his feet and snapped , Theyre both your daughters .
Are you going to wait until someone loses their life to realize how serious this is ? Mom pulled Jack back into his seat and urged him to calm down .
Then , she exchanged a heavy look with Dad .
They sighed collectively .
That was when it hit me ; it seemed they trusted his words .
Elsa had caused her fair share of chaos before my rebirth .
Every bit of blame would conveniently fall on me .
She could cunningly make her acts seem flawless .
It did seem I had motives against her as I had fought with her in front of the family , expressing my dissatisfaction over her closeness with Jeremiah .
Though my parents doted on me , they started falling for the mounting evidence over time .
Mom got up and held my hand .
She said in a concerned tone , I know youve got a fiery temper , Jae , but you shouldnt have gone this far regardless of what Elsa mightve done .
Elsa needed to have her stomach pumped .
Shes very weak right now , so lets all visit her at the hospital and clear everything up .
Dad nodded in agreement .
Yes .
Apologize to her , and well make it up to her in other ways .
Then , this matter can be put to rest .
Frowning , I asked , Mom , Dad , are you saying I did this ? Jack glanced at me coldly and sneered , Regardless , she fell ill after being at your place .
Dont you think the least you could do is apologize ? If it werent for Mom and Dad , youd be in a holding cell at the police station by now .
I froze and noticed the flash of unease on Moms and Dads faces .
Then , it dawned on me .
My expression darkened as I stared hard at Jack .
You wanted to call the police ? Jack met my gaze and snapped back , Youve hurt Elsa again and again ! Even if were family , her patience has its limits .
How else can I teach you a lesson if I dont report you to the police ? Chap 24 Lafal His words sent a chill through me .
I hadnt expected Jack to go this far for Elsa .
Even without evidence and just by relying solely on Elsas claims , he was ready to send me to the police Mom and Dad mustve worked hard to smooth things over .
I would have no choice but to visit the hospital for their sake .
When we arrived , Elsa was awake .
Jeremiah was by her side , attentively tending to her every need .
Hed bring her water and wipe her mouth My parents expressions visibly soured at the sight , When Jeremiah noticed us enter , he toned down his attentiveness slightly After greeting my parents , he turned to me with a cold voice .
Now that youve seen Elsa in such a state , are you finally satisfied ? Jacks face filled with pain as he urged me to apologize .
I couldnt hold back a cold laugh .
Why should I apologize ? She brought all of this on herself Didnt she have her stomach pumped ? Did the doctors tell you the real reason shes sick ?
