Late at night, Bethany stood at the door with a meal box in her hand,
knocking gently. “You haven't eaten anything all day. You won't be
able to hold out like that. I've brought you sfood. They're all your
favorites. Open up, Mom.”
But there was no response from inside the room.
Bethany began to feel anxious. She turned the doorknob and found
the door unlocked.
Fury surged within her.
The servants in the Salvador household were nothing but
opportunists, quick to change their tune depending on the situation
With news circulating about Gregory's possible divorce from Shannon
and her declining influence, they started to show disrespect.
The servants claimed that the door was locked when they tried to
deliver food. However, that was not true. The servants made a half

hearted attempt at sending food.
Bethany cautiously entered the room. The room was in complete
darkness, sending shivers down her spine.
Suddenly, moaning sounds echoed from the bedroom.
Bethany’s heart raced as she hurried to the door.
As she pushed the door open, the clatter of the meal box slipping
from her grasp echoed in the room, almost startling her into a

scream.

There, she saw her mother, Shannon, in agony. Her disheveled
appearance and deathly pale face resembled a ghastly specter in the
darkness.
“It hurts. It hurts so bad... I-can’t bear it any longer!” Shannon cried
out, trembling uncontrollably.
With her heart pounding in her chest, Bethany pressed herself against the door, her fear palpable as she
addressed her mother. “Mom, w- what's going on?!”
Although Shannon was her mother, Bethany was terrified, as if she
had encountered a ghost.
“B-Bethany, I'm dying... I'm dying!”
Shannon tumbled off the bed with a clang, crawling to Bethany’s feet
like a dog, clutching her skirt desperately. “Nobody else can helpnow... Only you can do it... You're the only
one who can help
“H-How can | help you?!” Bethany asked, trembling.
“Go find Dr. Fairchild right away and get the medicine from hi
inject it myself!”
At the mention of the medicine, a glimmer of hope flashed in
Shannon's dim eyes. Her bloodshot eyes widened. “As long as | have that medicine... Everything will be fine.
Without it, | might as well be
dead!”
“Mom! How are you any different from a drug addict now?! You can’t inject more of that stuff. That Dr. Fairchild is
only causing you harm!” Bethany was both anxious and angry, on the verge of tears.

Even if she were dumb, she still knew what her mother meant by
medicine”.
If Shannon's current state were to be known by others, it would be a
complete disaster!
“Just go! You're going whether you like it or not!”
Shannon descended into a frenzied madness, tearing Bethany’s dress
in the process. “If | go down, you're going down with me! Do you think Gregory's going to protect you? Do you
think he’s going to keep spoiling you? If he despisesso much, he’s going to hate you too! Your sister now has
Ryan to protect her, but what about you? You
only haveby your side!”
Bethany’s face turned pale with astonishment, as if a sudden
realization had struck her.
Left with no other option, Bethany was compelled to follow the address provided by Shannon and stealthily drive
out of Tideview
Manor amidst the deep night.
She sped down the road, both in a rush to save tand to release the pent-up frustration in her heart.
Recalling Shannon’s remark about her sister having Ryan by her side while she had nothing, she seethed with
intense hatred, angrily blaring the horn to vent her frustration!
Why did that idiot have such good luck? Why?!
