Watching James defend Lily tonight–and watching his car slowly disappear into the distance–Sean suddenly felt a hollow void open up inside him.

He didn’t want to admit it. He didn’t think he could.

But the truth was, in all the years since Lily had left the Ginger family, he’d never stopped thinking about her.

He missed how, when she was little, she would cup his cheeks with her soft little hands and whisper in that sweet voice. “Don’t be sad! We’ll definitely find Lily!

He missed how, as she grew up, vibrant and full of life, she’d hug his arm and beam, “You’re the best! I’m so lucky to have the best brother in the world!”

She had said he was the best. So why wouldn’t she come home anymore?

Sean was pressing hard against his chest, overcome with pain, when he suddenly heard Mathilda’s timid

voice.

“Why are your eyes so red? What’s wrong?”

Like waking from a dream. Sean’s gaze snapped to her face.

He didn’t want to think anything dark about his biological sister Mathilda.

But the evidence tonight was undeniable–Mathilda had framed Lily,

He couldn’t help but wonder: All those times in the past when Mathilda cried and shook, claiming Lily bullied her or beat her… were the terong about those too!

His chest tightened, the pain so suffocating he couldn’t breathe, let alone speak.

It took several deep, agonizing breaths before he could even find his voice.

“Mathilda, why did you frame Lily? Four years ago.. you said she pushed you into the water. Was that a lie too? Just how many times have you falsely accused her? Answer me!”

Mathilda stumbled back a full step, face pale as ash.

Ever since she returned to the Ginger family, they had treated her like something precious. If she even furrowed her brow, they’d be distressed for days.

Her brothers had only ever looked at her with affection and worry.

This was the first time Sean looked at her with such coldness–maybe even hatred.

Still reeling from the shock, she then heard Jonah’s voice.

Mathilda, years ago you said Lily lured gangsters into an alley to attack you. That was a lie too, wasn’t it?

Lily never hurt you. You made it all up, didn’t you? Speak!”

The water in the fountain had been scy

Mathilda was soaked to the bone, shivering her face pale like flour.

Now, being interrogated by Jonah and Sean at the same time, her complexion turned even greener–like someone had smeared vegetable juice actou her cheeks.

Years ago, Lily had never hurt her

Not the time she said Lily pushed her into the water. Not the time she said Lily hired thugs to harass her. Not the time she claimed Lily shoved her down the stairs. Not the time she accused her of constant bullying.

All of it–she had orchestrated herself

Everything was part of her plan to take back what she bebeved was rightfully hers.

To her. Lily was just a disgusting thief, a lowly adopted girl who never belonged in the Ginger family. Driving her out was simply restoring what was fair

Mathilda knew her brothers now doubted her. She could feel their disappointment, deeper than ever.

If she told the truth, they’d only grow to hate her more. She never be stupid enough to admit the resentment she held for Lily.

Sniffing pitifully, she decided to fall back on the trick that had always worked.

Play the victim.
