“No! No!” Renee seemed trapped in an endless nightmare, covering her ears and screaming in terror. She wanted
to escape, but an invisible hand seemed to grip her tightly, throwing her into a quagmire from which there was no
salvation.
“You worthless girl! Just like your mother, brainless trash! You had the chance to revel in endless glory and riches,
but you insisted on giving it all away! Useless waste!”
“Shut up!” Renee lunged forward, pounding on the glass as if possessed. “You animal! It’s all because of you! My
mother… It’s because of you she suffered and ended up with dissociative identity disorder… And now she’s dead!
Are you satisfied?!”
“What?” Melvin was surprised, then burst into increasingly loud laughter.
The prison guards had warned him multiple times, but it was futile. Thus, they eventually decided to push him back

A female guard outside gently patted Renee’s shoulder and guided her to sit down.
Just as Melvin was about to be pushed back through the iron door, he suddenly turned around, his eyes like an
abyss from hell.
“Heh! Renee, you are my daughter!
“Nicholas and Linda won’t treat you well sincerely. One day, they’ll abandon you, too!
“How about our family of three reuniting in hell? Hahaha!”
“Get lost!” Renee lost control of her emotions again, and it took two guards to restrain her.
The cold room fell silent, filled only with the sound of her sobbing breakdown, echoing in every corner.
After a while, someone escorted her out of there.
Outside, the sky was blue, and the sun was shining, yet she felt cold to her core as if plunged into an icy abyss from
body to soul.
Toph called her. Before she could even speak, his cheerful laughter came through the phone.
“Renee, guess what gift I’ve prepared for you?”
Renee forced a bitter smile and replied softly, “I don’t know.”
“Come on, take a guess. Alright, let me give you a hint…”
Renee’s voice was feeble. “Toph, I don’t want to guess.”
“Okay.” Toph chuckled. “Since you don’t want to guess, I won’t tell you I’ve prepared a litter of little kittens for you!
Hahaha!”
Renee’s heart clenched, and her hand holding the phone trembled slightly.
There was a time when she casually mentioned wanting to raise a kitten, and Toph had actually taken it to heart.
She cried abruptly, unable to even utter a word.

brought the whole litter with me!
“Pick your favorite. Let’s raise them together, okay?
“Renee? Renee!” With no response for a while, Toph grew worried. “What’s wrong?”
Renee sniffled, struggling to say that she was fine.
“Your voice doesn’t sound right! Where are you? I’m coming over…”
“No need, Toph!” Renee fumbled for words, “I-I’m just a little touched. You’ve taken every word of mine to heart.
You’re the best person in this world to me.”
“Silly girl, what are you saying!” Toph chuckled. “You’re my future wife. Shouldn’t I treat you well?”
“Toph…”
“Alright, tell me where you are! I’m coming to pick you up and take you to my place to see the kittens!”
“It’s really fine.” Renee’s heart warmed. “I’ll go to your place myself.”
After hanging up, she hurriedly headed to the Hamertons’ residence.
