Luna arranged to meet Kimberly, whom she hadn’t seen for a long time.
“Kimberly, how did you become so haggard?”
Kimberly looked listless, her eyes hollow, her skin wrinkled and lacking luster.
Her gaze seemed off, too, like a soulless puppet doll.
Luna frowned.
Her father’s death has affected her this badly?
“Kimberly, what’s wrong? You’re scaring me,” she added.
Kimberly finally snapped out of it. “What did you just say?”
Luna repeated, “I asked how you’ve been recently. You’ve been staying with your mother’s family this whole time?”
Kimberly shuddered, as if Luna had mentioned something terrifying.
“I haven’t been doing badly. I haven’t!”
Luna grew increasingly concerned about Kimberly’s strange behavior.

She reached out to touch her arm, but Kimberly reacted violently, jerking away.
“Don’t hit me! I’ll be good.” Kimberly covered her ears and
curled into a ball.
Luna narrowed her eyes.
Kimberly might be having mental issues.

She coaxed, “Kimberly, don’t be afraid! It’s me, Luna, your best friend. Don’t worry, I’m here. Tell me who hurt you, okay?”
Kimberly’s eyes gradually focused on Luna’s face.
She sobbed, “Luna? Luna, it’s you! Please save me!”
Luna patiently comforted her, “Don’t be scared, I’m back now and I’ll save you. Tell me, what exactly happened?”
Kimberly burst into tears. She had pinned her hopes on the Martins, only to realize she’d stepped from one nightmare into
another.

Ruben slapped his nephew Finn Martins across the face,
“Have you lost your mind? I’m the court president, not God.

How dare you scheme against women in our own family!”
Ruben was the eldest brother, a civil servant. The second brother, Charles Martins, worked at the resources bureau, while the third was Sally, who was still in prison.
When Sally married the illustrious Tobias, her status rose significantly above her two brothers.
And Tobias had secured many projects through his connection with Charles.
When Sally framed Kaia, she had Finn execute the plan, which failed, forcing Finn to issue a public apology to Kaia online.
Since then, Finn had held a grudge against Sally.
After Sally’s imprisonment, Kimberly was sent by Lucien to farm in the countryside for a full year.
Upon her return, her second pillar of support, Tobias, also passed away.
Thus, Kimberly returned to the Martins family.
Finn enthusiastically welcomed her to stay at his place,
“Stay in my place, as long as you want.”
But Kimberly never expected Finn to have ulterior motives.

Once, when drunk, he actually raped Kimberly.

With some money at his disposal and his father and uncle holding influential positions, Finn grew increasingly brazen, even confining Kimberly.
Had Luna not come looking for her, Finn would’ve kept her hidden forever.
But to avoid drawing suspicion and risking exposure, he reluctantly allowed Kimberly to meet with Luna.
Hearing Kimberly’s account, Luna felt nauseous.
But who was to blame? It was Kimberly’s own fault for ruining such good cards.
If she had maintained her father’s favor, she wouldn’t have ended up like this.
Luna comforted her, “Kimberly, I have a vacant apartment you can stay at for now. Okay?”
Kimberly nodded blankly, uncertain about her future.
“Think about how spoiled you used to be, Your dad adored you, and your mom could cover for you.
“If not for Kaia, your life would have been smooth sailing.”

Just when Kaia thought Kayla would keep up the momentum next year, she suddenly announced, “Kaia, Alyssa, I’m going home.”
The other two were stunned.
“Home? Which home? Where are you going?”
Kayla had originally become an actress against her family’s wishes. Having experienced both obscurity and fame, and played most types of roles, she felt no regrets.
“My parents are overseas. They never really approved of me acting, but gave me a few years to try making it on my own. Now the time’s up. I should go back.”
Kaia hadn’t expected Kayla to leave just as she returned.
Though they’d met later, Kaia cherished this friendship.
Alyssa pursed her lips. “Does Calvin know?”
Kayla paused briefly before smiling, “He doesn’t. And he doesn’t
need to.”
