On the eve of my wedding, I was dragged into the woods by two thugs and tormented for three hours. When my brother found me, I was disfigured, four teeth knocked out, covered in blood. My dad rushed over after finishing a business deal, pounding the wall and swearing revenge for me. Before entering the operating room, my brother, in his white coat, promised he would do everything to help me recover my looks and heal my body. But as I lay in the emergency room, I heard my brother whisper to my dad: "Dad, wasn't it too much letting those animals bully Chloe like that?" My dad was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect them to be so heavy-handed! But this is good too. With Chloe ruined like this, there's no way she can marry Liam Scott anymore. Bella can marry him rightfully now." "We did this for Chloe's own good. With her arrogant and domineering personality, if she really married into the Scott family, who knows what trouble she would cause." ... Since that's the case, I don't want them anymore. 1 My brother's assistant checked my injuries and hurried out. "Dr. Chen, the patient has multiple injuries, should we operate immediately?" "Okay, we..." Just as my brother was speaking, my dad interrupted him. "No rush. Wait until Bella and Liam's wedding is over before you operate." "Chloe only suffered external injuries, she'll heal quickly. If we do the surgery early and she runs to interrupt their wedding, what then?" The assistant beside him was shocked. "This kind of surgery can't be delayed. We have to consider if the patient has any unexpected complications..." My brother echoed: "Right! We must operate on Chloe as soon as possible. I won't allow anything to happen to her!" With a crisp slap, my dad hit him hard across the face. "Fool! We're halfway done, how can we retreat now? Chloe is already like this. Our task now is to ensure 100% that Bella can marry Liam!" "Do as I say! Give Chloe the best medicine to lessen her pain, and delay the surgery until tomorrow night!" Listening to the conversation between my dad and brother, my heart went cold. When my parents divorced, my dad refused to let my mom take me no matter what. I thought he couldn't bear to part with me, that he loved me. Who would have thought he would hurt me like this for an adopted daughter? And my brother, who fought others for me when we were young, and always thought of me first when he had good things growing up. Now he could let thugs bully me and even deliberately delay my surgery! How did they become like this?! The next second, the two walked into the emergency room. I closed my eyes, continuing to feign unconsciousness, but my fists clenched uncontrollably. My dad quickly noticed my abnormality. He held my fist and asked with concern: "Chloe, are you awake? How do you feel now?" He then pretended to order my brother: "Ethan, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and check your sister's injuries, give her the best painkillers!" My brother immediately leaned in, checking my condition with heartache, stopping the bleeding and bandaging me. Their words and actions were full of concern for me. However, knowing the truth, I only felt chilled and nauseous. Those two thugs forcibly pulled out my teeth, and my mouth was still bleeding. I endured the pain, looking at my brother and asking: "I feel pain in my lower abdomen. Brother, when is the surgery?" My dad answered first: "Chloe, your brother is missing a medicine here. He has arranged for someone to transport it here urgently. The surgery might have to wait until tomorrow night!" "But don't worry, your brother will stay here with you and won't let anything happen to you!" I was disappointed to the extreme with them. I looked at my brother and couldn't help asking: "Brother, is that true? I feel like I'm dying, but the surgery can't be done?" My brother's eyes flickered, clearly guilty. However, the next moment, he replied calmly: "Dad said so, how can it be fake? Chloe, don't be afraid, I will do my best to ensure you are safe and sound." 2 As my brother spoke, he cut open my pants with scissors to check the painful area on my abdomen. He trembled: "What happened to you? Why are you hurt like this here?" I tensed my weak body in pain, meeting their incredulous gazes, and answered softly: "I'm a woman with no strength. Falling into the hands of those two animals, could I have had it easy?" "They treated me like a toy, wishing to tear me apart..." My dad looked away unbearably. My brother hugged me tightly, trembling all over. "Chloe, don't say anymore. I will definitely cure you! And your face, I will do my best to restore it to its original state!" My dad declared there that he would spend a fortune to find those two animals and tear them to pieces. My brother kept his word and really didn't operate on me, only stopping the bleeding and giving painkillers. Groggily, I heard my brother asking my dad. "Dad, Chloe has been bullied like this. Are we really going to post her experience online?" "And spread rumors that she was loose herself, deliberately seducing those two thugs into the woods..." "When people online see this, who knows how they will curse her..." My dad said firmly: "We must do this! That kid Liam loves Chloe to death. It's not enough that she was bullied by them; we have to ruin her reputation too!" "Only in this way will the Scott family completely reject Chloe!" "At worst, after the wedding is over, we'll delete those things and hire a PR team to clarify and clear Chloe's name!" I was going crazy. Clearly, I was night running when those two thugs suddenly appeared and forcibly dragged me into the woods. As my family, how could they slander me like this?! A few minutes later, my phone started vibrating, buzzing again and again. It was my best friend sharing a TikTok video. [Chloe, look at this TikTok video. Why does it mention you by name?!!] Opening it, it was a video of me hooking up with those two thugs and following them into the woods. This was obviously the masterpiece of my dad and brother. As the person who experienced this, I naturally knew this video was fake. However, the comment section was full of sarcasm and insults towards me. [Isn't this the Chen family's daughter? Is she this loose?!] [Heard she's having a wedding with the Scott family's son tomorrow. This is having fun outside before getting married!!] [Damn, how can there be such a disgusting woman? If I married this kind of b*tch, I'd break her legs!!] [Liam Scott definitely won't want her anymore seeing her like this, right?!] [Her family must be furious, hahahaha!!] ... Looking at this content, I trembled with anger. The pain on my body exploded instantly, unstoppable even by the best painkillers. At this time, my brother came over, took away my phone, and hugged me with heartache. "Chloe, I believe you. You are not like this." My dad glanced at my phone and threw it hard on the ground. "How can they say this about my daughter? I'll call right now and have someone delete this video!" He walked away making a call. My brother comforted me gently: "Chloe, don't worry. In ten minutes, Dad can make this video disappear." I didn't speak, just faintly admiring the acting skills of these two. How can they be so thick-skinned? They clearly created the rumors about me, yet they act like good people in front of me one by one. A few minutes later, my dad walked back and said to me: "Chloe, I've had the video deleted. Dad will always be your support. I won't allow anyone to hurt you!" My brother echoed: "I will always protect you too." However, that video had been shared tens of thousands of times and had long reached the Scott family. What would Liam think of me? At this moment, I clearly realized that it was completely impossible between him and me. Perhaps, in tomorrow's wedding, Bella Chen really will get her wish and become his bride. My heart hurts so much! My brother worried about my physical condition and asked his assistant to arrange a more comprehensive examination for me. After the examination, the assistant looked at me with pity, pulled my brother aside, and stuffed a report into his hand. "Dr. Chen, your sister's organs are damaged. She must be operated on as soon as possible, otherwise she will completely lose her fertility, and various bodily functions will be seriously affected!" 3 My brother flipped through the report carefully, his face getting darker and darker. He warned the assistant not to talk nonsense and turned to find my dad. His thoughts were exactly the same as the assistant's. I must have surgery now. If not, I might not only be unable to have children but also very likely lose the ability to take care of myself! In the hallway outside, my dad trembled: "How could this be? How could those two animals do this to my daughter!" My brother was anxious. "The urgent task now is to operate on Chloe immediately!" Even through the wall, I could feel how anxious they were now. At this moment, I thought they would operate on me immediately. However, I was soon disappointed to the extreme. My dad said coldly: "No! If we operate on her now, what about Bella's wedding?" "It's good she can't have children. This way Liam will completely give up. He will love Bella wholeheartedly!" "As for losing the ability to take care of herself... As the best doctor in our city, can't you even cure your own sister?" "Hmph, even if she really loses the ability to take care of herself, it's fine. As her dad, I will support her for a lifetime and never let her starve or freeze!" At this time, I no longer had any expectations of them. Enduring the pain, I picked up the phone my dad threw on the ground and dialed a number I knew by heart. "I miss you. Can you come find me?" "Also, I want to ask you to do some things for me..." Just after the call, my dad and brother walked in. Under my dad's gaze, my brother fed me medicine and water. I didn't resist, obediently complying. Just after taking the medicine, a strong drowsiness hit me. It seems they gave me sleeping pills. I'm hurt like this, are they still afraid I'll stop Bella's good thing? When I opened my eyes again, it was already the next evening. By this time, the wedding where Bella replaced me should have ended, right? Before I was fully awake, my brother stepped forward excitedly. "Chloe! The medicine missing for the surgery will arrive in ten minutes. I can operate on you immediately! Just wait a little longer!" Joy couldn't be hidden on my dad's face, but I knew it wasn't because I was about to have surgery, but because his adopted daughter finally married the man she liked. I looked at them indifferently and said lightly: "I'm not doing this surgery." My dad got anxious immediately. "How can that be? We held on until now, finally can operate, how can you give up?" "Chloe, do you want to become a cripple who can't have children?" My brother grabbed my hand tightly, anxiously saying: "I forbid you to give up!" "Chloe, you have to believe me. I can definitely cure you. And your face, I will restore it to how it was!" "Give me a chance to make up for it, okay?" Just then, my dad's secretary walked in quickly and whispered to him: "Mr. Chen, Bella has arrived." My dad looked happy. His tone changed, saying to me: "Consider the surgery carefully. Bella is here to see you now, don't embarrass her!" A guilty look flashed across my brother's face, but in the end, he said nothing. I knew what happened even if they didn't say. Bella was an intern in my dad's company. Somehow, she won my dad's favor. That weekend, my dad brought her home and announced he recognized her as his adopted daughter. Since then, my dad treated her as well as his biological daughter, wishing to hold her in the palm of his hand. Until this time, for Bella to marry Liam whom she fell in love with at first sight, he didn't hesitate to hire two thugs to drag me into the woods and bully me. Liam hasn't come to see me for so long. It seems he also gave up on me and married Bella. I'm just curious why Bella isn't enjoying her wedding night but ran over here at this time? Unexpectedly, she actually came wearing my wedding dress. 4 Seeing her, my dad and brother showed no dissatisfaction. Seeing me on the hospital bed, the joy on her face couldn't be hidden. She feigned concern for me: "Chloe, how did you become like this? The thing about you and those two thugs isn't true, is it? You were consensual, how could they treat you like this?" My brother frowned. Bella immediately apologized to me: "Sorry, sorry! I shouldn't mention this to make you sad, I accidentally forgot!" I didn't want to watch her act here. I endured the pain and disgust and asked her: "Bella Chen, why are you wearing my wedding dress?" Bella's eyes reddened instantly, looking like she was about to cry. My dad's face changed, glaring at me fiercely, shouting: "What else could it be? Chloe Chen, you were indiscreet before marriage, messing around with two men. Naturally, the Scott family won't want you anymore!" "If it weren't for Bella wronging herself and sacrificing herself to marry Liam, who knows how ugly this matter would have become!" My brother scolded me coldly: "Chloe, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're sick! Bella helped you this time, you shouldn't question her!" Their righteous appearance made it seem like that video wasn't forged by them. I laughed in anger, but laughing hurt my mouth. "Don't blame Chloe, she must be very sad now. If she wants to blame someone, blame me!" Saying this, she walked up to me, looking at me mockingly, and said proudly in a volume only I could hear: "The once arrogant Chen family daughter has now become an ugly monster." "Heard you can't even have children, so pitiful!" "And I, replaced you to marry Liam. He will love me wholeheartedly in the future." "Guess who did all this?" "It was the thugs your dad hired, your brother deliberately delaying your surgery..." "In their hearts, I am their family, and you are not even as good as roadside trash..." I glared at her, opening my mouth to curse her. I only said "You", and she suddenly fell back hard. She fell to the ground, saying pitifully: "Chloe, I know you hate me for marrying Liam and taking away Dad and Brother's love for you!" "If you really aren't willing, I'll return Liam to you, return Dad and Brother to you. I can also atone with death, no need for you to push me..." Before I could react, my dad rushed up and slapped my bandaged face. "Chloe! You're hurt like this and still bullying Bella. How can you be so vicious?!" "Bella wronged herself to marry Liam to clean up your mess. If you have any dissatisfaction, come at me!" My brother also kicked my hospital bed hard. His kick was so powerful that I rolled off directly. He ignored it, helping Bella up and hugging her tightly. He said to me coldly: "Chloe Chen, if you dare touch Bella again, I won't recognize you as my sister." Even though I had decided to cut ties with them, my heart was still terribly cold. I watched helplessly as they left holding Bella. My dad took Bella for a checkup, afraid she was hurt in the slightest. He also had someone bring her the most delicious midnight snack. Only then did he remember me. He said to my brother: "Go ask Chloe what she wants to eat. We were so harsh to her just now, she must be angry." A few minutes later, my brother stumbled back with a piece of cloth written in blood. "Dad, Chloe doesn't want us anymore. She wants to sever ties with us!"
