Chapter 9

Author: Goodtale
After the family doctor left, Damien had just changed the bandages on my hand when the bedroom door was pushed open. My mother rushed in first, and her eyes were red. She reached out, wanting to touch the bruises on my face, but then hesitated and pulled her hand back.

“Does it hurt?” she asked.

I shook my head. Tears immediately started streaming down her face, and she turned her head away to wipe them.

My father followed behind her without saying a word. He stood at the head of the bed and

  • The Billionaire’s Sister   Chapter 9

    After the family doctor left, Damien had just changed the bandages on my hand when the bedroom door was pushed open. My mother rushed in first, and her eyes were red. She reached out, wanting to touch the bruises on my face, but then hesitated and pulled her hand back.“Does it hurt?” she asked.I shook my head. Tears immediately started streaming down her face, and she turned her head away to wipe them.My father followed behind her without saying a word. He stood at the head of the bed and stared down at me for a long time. He placed the thermos he was carrying onto the nightstand, unscrewed the lid, and warm steam from the chicken soup rose.He stirred it with a spoon and brought it to my lips. I opened my mouth and took a sip, but I hissed from the heat. He quickly pulled the spoon back, blew on it twice, and offered it to me again.Damien stood at the doorway, leaning against the frame with his arms crossed, a look of regret written on his face. My parents ignored him, though

    Damien lost his grip on the coffee cup, which fell onto the table, spilling dark brown liquid everywhere. The smile froze on his face. He looked as if he had been turned to stone, his eyes staring fixedly at the screen without blinking.As silence befell the room, Howard pushed the camera a little closer, magnifying my unconscious face on the screen.“If I hadn’t thought about coming over to check on Pia today, nobody would have known she was being bullied like this,” Howard said.Damien’s voice came through the phone. “Who bullied her? Who did this?”Damien’s voice dropped even lower than before. It was so low that it sounded as if a knife were being forced out of his throat.“Who had the nerve to touch my sister?”Grace’s phone slipped out of her pocket. With a loud clack, it hit the floor, and a huge crack spread across the screen. She stepped back until her back was pressed against the cabinet. Her lips parted, but nothing came out of her mouth.The phone in Lucy’s hand drop

    “Turn it off.”Howard’s voice wasn’t loud, but Lucy’s hand holding the phone trembled anyway.“You think you can just tell me what to do?” Lucy shot back.“Say one more word about her. I dare you,” Howard said, taking a half-step forward before stepping back against the doorframe.Lucy’s lips twitched, but she didn’t say another word.Grace glared at her. “What are you afraid of? What can he possibly do to us? We’re the ones in the right here!”Howard glanced down at his watch and then looked back up toward the door. Outside, the hallway was silent, but his posture relaxed visibly as he leaned back against the doorframe.Grace clenched her fists tightly.“If you get out of my way right now, I won’t hold this against you,” she snapped. “But if you insist on standing in our way, don’t blame me for what happens next.”When Howard didn’t budge, Lucy leaned in and whispered something into Grace’s ear. Grace gritted her teeth, then raised her voice even louder. “Let me tell you so

    Seeing Howard stopped by the two burly men, Grace swaggered over to him and sized him up.“Why aren’t you coming over? Go on, take a good look at this darling little sister of yours.”She gestured with her chin toward where I was lying on the floor.“Just a moment ago, your precious girl was calling another man on the phone. I bet she’s got a whole bunch of ‘brothers’ waiting in her contacts, huh?”Lucy walked around to Howard, holding her phone up and bringing the camera to his chin.“Hey, handsome. Let me tell you, this girl makes a living out of calling rich men her brother just to beg them for money. Don’t fall for her trap. Oh wait, you already did! Hahaha!”Howard ignored Lucy’s camera. He looked past the shoulders of the two large men, fixing his eyes entirely on me. His fingers clenched into a fist and then relaxed.The lanky man reached out and shoved Howard’s chest. “We’re asking you a question. What’s your relationship with her?”Howard raised his hand, brushing the

    Grace froze as she stared blankly toward the doorway.“Is that Damien?”The two men, too, had stopped what they were doing, and I began to gasp for air, struggling against them.That was just the smart home voicemail system. Damien couldn’t get hold of me, so he had started leaving a voice message! However, he had no idea the situation I was currently in, and I had to find a way to contact him myself!The very next second, a phone ringtone echoed through the room. I knew that ringtone all too well. It was Damien’s ringtone.Grace paused for a moment, looking toward the living room as her gaze darkened. She had actually believed Damien was at my house, unaware that she had been fooled by the automated voice.“So it was just a voicemail. You bitch! If you think one trick is going to make me let you off the hook, you’re dead wrong!”She glared down at me, but I didn’t answer. Instead, I crawled along the floor to escape, my knees scraping against the ground until they were bright r

    Lucy shoved the phone right into my face, the camera pressing against the tip of my nose.Meanwhile, Grace walked over through the mess in the room. She bent down and pinched my chin, her nails digging deep into my skin as she forced my face toward the camera.“Say it. Say you’re a homewrecker.”I twisted my head, trying to dodge her hand. “I’m not.”A slap landed on my left cheek. The force of it knocked me off balance, and my forehead slammed hard against the cabinet door.“Say it. Say you’re a homewrecker.”“I told you I’m not!”This time, my right cheek went numb, my ears rang, and I could taste blood in my mouth.Grace pinched my chin, yanking my face back to the camera again, and said, “Look at the camera and say you’re a homewrecker. Say you seduced my boyfriend, and say you conned him out of his money.”More comments flooded the livestream. [Good job hitting her! Homewreckers deserve to be punished!][Make her return the money! Thirty thousand dollars isn’t a small
