Suzanna stood by the window. Her complexion was pale as she gripped her phone tightly, her knuckles white, as if she might break at any moment.
Derrick entered the hospital room. His tall figure was straight, his brows sharp as blades, and his high nose looked as if sculpted with precision.
His dark eyes, usually cold and indifferent, softened slightly as they landed on Suzanna.
He approached Suzanne and comforted her, saying, "Suzie, this is the luxury beauty cream I had someone get for you. They say it works wonders for scars. Give it a try. Don't worry about Carson. If he's decided to take the case to court, I'll be there to back him up." Derrick had always been kind and indulgent to his younger sister. Despite his fearsome industry reputation as the Legal Titan, known for his unyielding and merciless demeanor, het was famous for doting on his sister.
While Derrick was razor-sharp in his judgments, he saw his family through a lens of overwhelming affection, especially his sisters.
Both Melody and Suzanna were his sisters, but he had spent more time with Suzie, especially since she had had a heart condition since childhood. This made him more protective and caring toward her.
Suzanna glanced back. Her tear-streaked face was still wet, and she looked fragile and pityful.
"Derrick, I have wronged Mel, and I can't forgive myself for that. If she really wants me to pay the price, I'll .... D
Suzanna's voice trailed off as though the thought had hurt her. Her frail body trembled as she pressed her hand to her chest, trying to steady her erratic heartbeat.
Derrick's brows furrowed. The iron-willed lawyer, who was always distant and unsmiling to outsiders, now showed a rare look of concern.
He quickly moved forward to catch Suzanna, who was on the verge of passing out. His eyes. lashed with a cold, dangerous light. "This doesn't make sense! You've already apologized to her. We're family-she can't keep punishing you! And if we're keeping score, what about her tealing Carson's work three years ago? That was unforgivable! If Carson wants to teach her a esson now, she's only getting what she deserves
de gently guided the pale and fragile girl back to the hospital bed.

Almost a week had passed, and the handprint on Suzanna's face had turned darker, the bruises more vivid. However, what was more horrifying was the scar on her forehead.
When Melody forced her to bow and banged her head against the floor, her wound was a
mess.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Now, though the wound was healing, a ghastly scar remained.
""But I don't think she meant to
Suzanna lowered her eyes, which shimmered with unshed tears. Her lips trembled as she spoke in a soft, broken voice, appearing every bit helpless and weak.
Though Melody had treated her so cruelly, Suzanna was ever kind-hearted. She still believed. Melody hadn't done that to her on purpose.
Derrick's frown deepened. When he compared both of his sisters, his disdain for Melody's. stubbornness and coldheartedness grew stronger. Suzie had been too well protected by the family
How could Suzie possibly fight against someone like Melody, who had spent 13 years out in the world? They didn't even know what kind of life she'd led or what kind of low-class, destitute family had raised her. They molded her into something so lowly and twisted that he doubted she could ever be redeemed.
At that moment, Carson walked into the room. His expression was cold, his voice rough and worn out as he cut into Suzanna's words. "Haha! She meant it. Melody's been acting against ne on purpose! How did our family end up with such a venomous disgrace?" The words were cruel, especially coming from a brother talking about his own sister. His vords were laced with venom.

But because he was detail-oriented and understood that Melody was to blame for the scar on Suzanna's forehead, he perceived Suzanna as the victim and naturally sided with her. And yet, despite this, his mind kept drifting back to how Melody used to be-back when she would tenderly take care of him whenever his headaches flared up.
When he used to refer to her as Mel, the kind, considerate girl would eagerly approach him.
She was always concerned, urging him not to stay up too late or work himself too hard. Melody would then gently massage his temples, soothing his pain with care.
