The doctor frowned as he told Marshall, “Ms. Samantha was badly stung this time; especially the ones on her
face. I'm afraid scars will remain.”
Marshall's expression was so dark it seemed to drip with anger. He motioned for everyone to leave the room,
keeping only the unconscious Samantha behind.
“Stop pretending,” Marshall said coldly. “I know you're awake.”
Samantha’s swollen eyelids trembled before she managed to pry them open a slit.
“Dad...” Her voice was hoarse as she tried to reach for his sleeve, but her hands were covered in stings; the pain
made her gasp sharply.
“You've disappointedfar too much.” Marshall stood above her, not the slightest trace of pity in his eyes. “I
warned you not to lay a hand on Sloane; did you think my words meant nothing?”
“No... I...” Samantha tried to make excuses.

us, you should be the one to keep her appeased. If | ever catch you two pulling something this stupid again, both
of you can get out of the Rivers family!”
Adrian’s face drained of color; the bowl of medicine nearly slipped from his hands.
At that moment, Sloane was standing at the third-floor landing, having witnessed everything. She stroked the
sachet in her hand; her lips curved into a cold smile.
A soft knock sounded at her door. Setting aside the medical book in her lap, Sloane said lightly, “Cin.”
Helen crept inside and shut the door behind her. Suddenly, with a heavy thud, she sank to the floor before
Sloane.
“Sloane.... please, let Samantha and Adrian go...” Helen's voice shook; tears streaked down her worn, pale face.
“It’s all my fault... if you must hate someone, hateinstead...”
Sloane stared down at the woman who had once treated her with nothing but icy indifference; her gaze

“I know...” Helen clutched at Sloane's hem. “Samantha’s face, and all those strange injuries she’s been getting
lately... it's you...”
